attacking Kinchow, and both Ta-Len-Wan
and Fort Arthur will soon be taken.”
This information, coming on the anni
versary of the emperor’s birthday, is giving
much satisfaction at the legation. The lust
sentence to the effect that “Fort Arthur
will soon be taken” seems to indicate that
the dispatches last night that “I’ort Arthur
had been captured,” were premature.

“Aftt— lhe capture of Kulien-Chao on the
2Cth. the Japanese headquarters were mov
ed from Wiju to this point. The culunins
chased the Chinese to Bato and attacked
Andong. The Chinese fled without light
ing. throwing away arms a,nd drums in their
flight. General Tntsumi started for Fong-
Wong on the Nth. and arrived there on
the 3bu. Th- garrison made no show of
lighting, but fled toward the main liody as
s'oon as the Japanese approae’ti-d. ’lhe
principal generals are proceeding with their
troops towards Moukiien. The inhabitants
of Naii iio and Takosltan cmiiplain bitterly
of the vitdenci’ of th- Chinese soldiers,
front whom they suffered constantly during
lhe occu|>ation. They ure friendly toward
the Japanrs... At present the Japanese are
taking no prisoners. Tnree hundred Chi
nes*’ bodies were found alter tin- capture
of Kulien-Chao, many of th”.n having died
of wounds received in previous batlies.
“By th*: capture of !”oug~Wong, Andot:|:

A QUAKE IN MEXICO.
THE STROXU KST JiVIEDIXGS WERE
CRACKED,
Funic in a Theater—Songs Cease and Ac
tors and Audience Kneel in Prayer.
Thirteen Killed in tho City of Mexico.
Mexico City, November 4.—The earth
quake which visited this section of the re
public Friday evening was the most severe
which has been felt since 1858. Reports of
damage to life and property are slow iu
being collected, but it is known that thir
teen people were killed in this city nnd at
least three at outside points. .Many roofs
of old buildings fell und in some instances
crushed to instant death the occupants of
the houses. All the killed are among the
lower classes.
Tin* earthquake was preceded by a rumb
ling subterranean noise followed by a
movement of the ground from north to
south. This was followed in a few seconds
by another undulating and stronger vibra
tion from west io east, which in turn was
succeeded by a shock from northwest to
. onthwest. The three shocks, < eming as
they did from different quarters, badly
cracked the strongest buildings. Tall chim
neys fell and walls standing north and
south suffered great damage.
From telegraphic advices from central
and southern Mexico the disturbance is
shown to have covered the stale and federal
district of Mexico and lasted from one to
lour minutes. Seven distinct shocks were
i.-lt at Jojutlu, in the state of Morelos, and
smart shock:; were felt at Tulancingo, in
the stat.* of Hidalgo. At Ojusco an Indian
.-.nd his wife were crushed to death under
the roes of their adobe house.
I’nnicM in lhe Theaters.
Being a holiday and one of t he chief festi
val days of the year the theaters were
thronged and panics ensued. Several peo
ple were hurt in the rush of exit and many
women went into hysterics. The songs on
the stage were succeeded by impassioned
pra.v* r.. for forgiveness and confession of
error. The plaj s were generally abandon
id and the audience reinaine*! in the seats
sir .ling in prayer. Traffic was completidy
abandoned at tho tirst premonition. Drivers
deserted the street ears and coachmen their
hacks to kneel in prayer along with th*?
throngs tending up their supplications, in
palace and in humble h.ime nothing but
prayer was to be heard.
Tne thriatened destruction was made
more solemn by the ringing of bells in the
waying church towe rs. Not a church was
injuted by the twisting. The entire police
force of the city was kept busy during the
night in attending the casualties occasion
ed by falling walls and caving roofs. Tho
police stations were crowded with people
brought in for temporary treatment before
being rmnoved to the hospitals.
I’riMiuers Confess Their Crimes.
In Belain and other prisons, where many
<1 sperate criminals are confined, the scones
witn* ssed were curious as the walls sway
ci and the earth cracked, threatening to
* ntomb th** imprisoned inmates. The con
victs, almost without exception, fell upon
their knees or groveled on th** floors of
their colls with, loud Voices crying out
prayers and supplications. Many, suppos
ing their end had come. Shouted out con
fessions of past crimes. This is one of the
most dramatic passages in the passing of
the event and may be of use to the officers
of the law in unraveling a number of
inyst rious crimes in Mexico.
The wat f pipes leading from Cha
pulnpcc to the city were broken and
the greater part of th*? city is in danger j
o a water famine unless the connection is j
so*>n restored, which will take some time. .
The h’. ’ric lights were extinguished, the |
dynamo axle in ttie plant leaping from the i
b. .. Great cracks in the earth appear 1n
varo.us parts of the city, especially in the
northern sections.

Chicago, October 30.—Two robbers made I

jewelry store, which n* tied them about
six thousand dollars' worth of watches and
jmvelry, and the police have not caught
them yet.

THE STRIKE IS OFF,
And the Mills at Fall River, Mas-*., Will Kuu
With F-ill Forces.
Fall River, Mass., October 29.—The big
strike of weavers which was commenced
at a four weeks’ vacation, ten weeks ar. -,
was declared off this morning and the
strikers will return to work tomorrow
morning. They were defeated by the man
ufacturers and they will resume their old
places under a reduced scale of wages.
For eight weeks some z3,001> operatives
were thrown out of work and for the past
two weeks about eight thoi»ana people
w*re affected. The strong letter of the
manufacturers, in which ic was stated that
no conference would be held and no con
cessions ma*le, and the fact that the union’s
finances were in a very low’ condition,
were the cause of breaking down the re
sistance that has been offered.
The strikers voted Saturday, by a ma
jority of 44 in neuHy a thousand votes,
not to return to work. After the vote was
passed several meetings of weavers in in
dividual mills were held and votes were
passe*! in favor of returning to work.
Today the mills showed a gain in th*’
number of weaver, employed and when a
mass meeting was held in the park hss
than three thousand people were present.
The parade of weavers did not include 2>>l
hundred persons. Some i.B*W operatives
crowded the Academy of Music and
speeches ware made by S’cretary White
head and others. The general advice given
was that it was wise to return to work
under the terms offered. A rising v<*te was
takvn on the question of returning and
hardly twenty-live persons voted to remain
out< , ,
Tne strike has be* n the most orderly af
fair of its kind in the long history of labor
struggles nero. Geneial business has been
about paralyz.’d, but although so many
were idle, no serious disturbance occurred
and ai r* sis for drunkenness and minor
crimes fell off. .
Tne operativi’s lost about SI,;>M.MO in
wages, whiff th- loss to the mills wa”. not
so severe, owing to the <1 -•pressed condi
tion of trade. Th** sympathy of the puo.ic
has been ovetwhelnnngly tn favor of the
Strikers, but Ibero is much siti action on
all sides now Hint the long tight is ended.

’•cnsntlon isi Court.
Pl’tsburg. J’;*., October 3<».—William Rear
don, in criminal court today, r use*l a point
of law which amounts to a legal sensation.
He was defending Thomas MeQu’rk. charg
ed with perjury, lor falsely swearing to th*?
age of the woman he married, and Mr.
Roard ni moved to *iuash the indictment on
the ground that there was no such offense
under the law, as the marriage license act
was not in force and no license was r -
quir*'d to be taken out by parties who de
sired to be married.
This caused Judge Magee to remark.
“Why. Mr. Reardon, you surely don’t mak ’
such a statement in earnest.”
“1 do, your honor, and can prove it. Tne
marriage license act was pas. * d in ISV., ami
wis amended in 1893. By that amendment
on ami after October 1, 1895, parties desiring
to be married in this state must take out a
license.”
The act of 18S5 and 1893 were sent for and
read to the court. Judge Magee said that
if the act was corr ctly printed Air. R* ar
don was right, and tl.*' present ma’iiav*'
law- would m>t be in force until 1:95. By
agreement of counsel, a eertitied copy of
the a* t was sent for and lhe trial pro
ceed: d.
lhe point is a new- one, and if sustained
will make Pennsylvania a regular pretna
green, as any on ■ can tl: n be married iu
