2 THE AMERICUS WEEKLY TIMES-RECORDER: FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 28, 1902. BT> VOLCANIC ERUPTION TOOK 5,000 LIVES Additional Details of Guate malan Horror. ' TOWNS PRACTICALLY RUINED. Be; Rich Coffee Plantations, Valued Million,Have In Many Instanc Destroyed, Together With Theii Costly Machinery. San Francisco, N^v. 21.—W. J Campbell, who has just arrived bert from Guatemala, brings additional tie tails of the damage caused by the re cent volcanic disturbance. In an in terview Mr. Campbell said: “There Is no clear idea yet of the loss of life resulting from the volca no's eruption, but f:om what I could gather before leaving the country 1 believe that 5,000 natives have been hilled. There was some talk at San Jose, too, of some of the refugees having been waylaid by robbers, and I saw r.o instance of this. In fact I bothered very little about anything except the fact that I had been im poverished and I took the first means of getting back to this country. 1 heard at San Jose that President Ca brera was trying to suppress the news, but he could not reasonably have expected to do anything like that, for the evidence of ruin was ap parent to everybody. “Some of the coffee fiincas that have been nearly ruined were worth more than $1,000,000. The plantation of Albert James, which was wiped out of existence, had machinery upon it worth $300,000, all of which was de stroyed. Some months ago James re fused an offer of $1,500,000 for th« finca. Adolpfo Meyers’ finca, worth $75,000 In gold, was entirely ruined. Both of these fine places lay from 20 to 40 miles west of the volcano. Th 3 town of Quezaltenango Is practically ruined, for the houses are cracked and broken down, the people are moving out and the neighborhood Is covered \ with sand and ashes."
