Loudon, Juno 2.—A dispatch from Sorina-
, —fix, India, Baja that city waa visited by a
frightful earthquake Sunday laat. The shocks,
which occurred at intervals oi ten minutes,
were of great violence, The greater part of
B tba city was destroyed, and tho cavalry bar
racks is a mass of ruins, Fifty persons are
to have been killed, and hundreds o!
injured have already been taken from the
general wreck. The total loss of Hie or num-
ber of maimed, must remain unknown for
acme days, as many oi the inhabitants still lie
buried in the ruins. When tho shocks were
first felt, and tho people realized that they
were being subjected to tho awful possibilities
•of an earthquake, the wildest panic seised
them. Every one able to do so rushod from
the trembling houses, and ded to the boats on
the river and on the lakes, or sought the open
country.
The terrified inhabitants aro now cac>L_„
in the fields that surround the town. Serins-
gur is near the center of the vale of Cashmere,
and that whole territory experienced terrtbio
earthquake shocks. The damage caused
throughout the vale is enormous. Tho lost in
cattle alone it very great. Ths affrighted peo
ple teem to be utterly helpless, and succor it
oeing sent them as rapidly as the Indian
authorities can organize relief. Many of the
heuecs vet standing show large rents in the
T wo III, and mutt be razed to the ground. The
is shocks have not ceated, and this fact greatly
•X rclardt the work of rescuing the people pinned
f down in the debris, and it it feared many of
J these must perieh before they can be retched
by the relief parties.
London, June 3.—A later dispatch from
Eerintgur, regarding the earthquake in Cash
mere, says that filly soldiers of the garrison of
Eerintgur wtre wounded. Forty natives were
killed outright, and eighty others were injur
ed. Many of the latter will die of their in
juries. The palace of the British resident It a
mass of ruins.
The official report of the earthquake In tho
vale of Cashmere shows that it was not at dis-
estrona in its results at the earlier reports
made it appear. The first shock experienced
[at Eerenagur was felt at 3 a. m. of Sunday,the
31st ult. The shocks continued at intervals
until Mondty morning. While the shocks in
the beginning wero not very violont, they
were sufficiently to to arouse the inhabitants,
who fled from the dwellings. In consequence
tho loss of life la now believed to be compara
tively small, although several houses were
destroyed. The British residence remains in
tact. As a matter ol precaution, however, the
records and furniture were removed to the
open country and deposited in t'nts, wherein
the officials found temporary refuge.
The British resident at Sbanegur telegraphs
that no Europeans were killed by tho earth
quake.
Vmaa, June 2—Serious antl-Jewish riots
have again broken out. Thar were renewed
yesterday with incroaaed violence. Tho in
citing cause at the present time is the exette-
- menl of the people growing out ol the election
egitation. The Carmelite plats was filled
] with a howling mob, and free fights were fre
quent. The shops of tho Jews were raided
and ruined and their owners violently assault-
cd. Hot less than forty persons wars severely
wounded. Tho polico made many arrests,
attll they wero powerless to repress the riot
ers, and wero obliged to call for the aid of tho
military.
Other riots of like violence and destruotive-
nett have taken placo in Weldon and Neubsn
jslricis. In these districts the entiro police
loe is on duty patrolling the streets and
,ftventing the gathering ol crowds.

London, June (.—The Russian report that
the ameer of Afghanistan had been murdered
by hit auito is not credited at the British for
eign office. Couriers from Cabul arrive at tho
British posts on the Afghan frontier twice
week regularly. In tho latest re
ports brought to the British agents
st these poats there was no
newt of actual disorder In Afghanistan, but
the general ailuation in the ameer’s dominions
has been described in all recent reports as one
betokening danger to Abdnr Ahman’t author
ity. This has been attributed to the discon

failure to distribute among them sums of
money which tho chlels boliovod ho
received from Earl Duflcrin, vice
roy of India, at tho recent
conference with which to aubsidieo the Afghan
tribes. The chiefs have all along felt certain
that Abdurahman was entrusted with a largo
sum of money lor their benefit and that of ths
tribesmen, and they have chafed under their
failure to get what thoy have expected as their
shares. It would not be surprising if tome ot
these disappointed chiefs should have resolved
to adopt murder as their mode of revenge upoir
