A de,spalch from San Francl.sco says ; The .Solomon Islands in tlie .South .Seas were vtsiled by a fearful earthquake several months ago, in which the earth was opeiied and deep gorges created. The entire appearance of the islands wa.s changed. There was no loss of life. Tlie news was brought lie-e by Governor C. B I.. Mooire, who arrived on Thursday from .Samoa. He slated that a trading schooner came into Apia with the news sliortly before he sailed. It is deemed probable that the earth quake was the one recorded then on the seismographs in various parts of the world. Accord- ing to tho inslrumenl al Apia. Samos, it lasted for several minules, and was said I J 1)0 the heaviest shock ever recorded. II was figured that it occurred soine- whci'o in the SouUi .Scjls, but as no re- port came from any civilized island 11 was believed Ihal il occurred at sea. A IIOnniBLE DEATH. Condaclor Lay for Ten Hours Pinned Under Ituiler. A despatch froir, Mi.ssoula. Montana, says: Two engine-;, upon which were riding a large number (if men who had l<;en eivgagcd in bre.iking the snow b'ockade near .Siiltoz. .Mont., plunged over an embaiikii:enl two miles west f l)e Borgia on 'I'huriday, killing Iwo men and injuring nearly a score, some ct Ihem .seriously. The dead arc: D. ft. McDonald, conductor, and Levi Burris, fireman. (xindi.ctor Vicllonald's death occurred on Thursday night after he had lain for ton hours pinned L>eneath a boiler, witii his body partly submerged in the icy waters of the river. His fellow-workmen, unable to help him, kept his head above the water until he died. Me steadfastly refu-^ed lo have his leg amputated. LEFT S5.IM0,IMM TO l>OOR. Murdered Ixndon .Men-hanl Dad an Imposing Funeral. .\ desp^ch from London says : Un- usual pubnc interest in the tragic death nf Wiliiam Whileley, who was shot and killed in Ins great di^artment store, Jan. 24, by Horace George Haynor, was stwwn by the scenes at the funeral of the merchant on Wedne.sday morning. Ixmg licfore the hour for Ihe ccivmony thou- .sands of persons gathered about the Whileley residence and dense masses lined Ihe streets leading to llie church. Most of Ihe shops in Ihe Westbourne Grove district kept tlieir shutters up and over a hundred caiTiages followed Ihe hearse to the cemetery. Four of these were laden with floral wreaths. Accord- ing lo the new-iipapers, Mr. Wliitelov be- queath(xl $5,000.(KX) lo provide alms- house.s and homes for the aged and de- serving poor. INVADED BY f;ONSLMPTIVES. Calgary Wanls a Sanilarium tor Eastern Invalids. A despatch from Gaigary .says : Cal- gary hn.s been burdened in a most alarming milnner' during the last few years, and particularly during the last few months, with a large number of ofinsuniplives coming here from eastern Canada. They come hero usually with a small amount of money and are unable to work. The iftsult is thai Ihey are soon on Ihe hands of the city. They also find great diflicully in gelling accommoda- tion. Many heartrending cases are re- fioiled every day. Al a iiiueling of the Calgary E$oard of Trade on Tuesday night u resolution wa.s piussed calling upon the Dominion Government to es- tablish a s,aaila."iuin .some place in Ihe mountains when; a cure can be effected in the best form. ! Aid for a million dollar smeller lo be nrectid in Ihe Cx^)balt disU'iol is asked from Ihe Government. iiiM i <m ' Citizens of Kingston Deplore the Government's Incapacity. A despatch from London says : There IS rea.son lo believe that the resignation of Sir Alexander Swetlenham a.s Gover- nor of Jamaica has been accepted, though Ihe olIiciaLs of the Foreign Office are mystifyingly silent and refuse all infor- mation on the subject. This ofTicial reti- cence is attributed to a desire lo com- plete Ihe arrangements tor a succft.ssion la the post before announcing .Sweten- liams lolirenient. it is expected thit, the lallor will leave the island as soon as details can be coninleled for handing ovei- the affairs r.t hLs oflice. The (lovernment officials here, particularly those of the Foreign Ollice. have ex- pressed the opinion throughout that this was the only pos.sible outcome of the Kingston incident, short of the perenip- iory dismissal of the Governor. CITIZfCNS i:\PflF.SS TIIKMSELVF.S. A deftpatch from Kingston, Jamaica, says : .\ large meeting ol representative citizens was held in Nicloria Market on Tuesday to di.scus.s plans for r*>biiilding Ihc city. The follcviiig resolutions were adoptiHl by acclaniiilion :â€" "This meeting denlores Ihe enormous loss caused the entire community, and more particularly the mercantile com- munity, by Ihe whole.sale piUajiing of shops and stores, such pillaging being entirely due to lack nf organization pn the part of the (jovernment. Ihe Oovern- menl not calling cilizens to its aid. and ils refusal <]f valuable sticcoi- offered by Ihe navy o! the United Slates, which would have prevented much of the lo6S that has occurred. "This meeting with deep regret desires, to place upon the record its conviction) that Ihe chief executive otTicers of th« Government have been and are stfll out' of touch with ttie community generally;, that this altitude on the part of the said' ofTicers (.would appear lo rencter them in- capable of coping with the situation* in ; the only way practical, namely, that of concerted action on the part of all the persons concerned." STRICKEN KING.STON. A despatch from Ottawa says : Th» i:)epartment of Trade and c;ommeroe ha& received a letter from a Hfllifax com- mercial company in close touch with' conditions in Jamaica expressing sur- prise at the recent telegram from Mr. Burke, commercial agent for Canada on. the island, staling that there was no groat need of aid from outside, and that- conditions following the earUiquake could t>t remedied by the local authorities. From advices received direct from Jamaica the Halifax correspondents of' the department state that they cannot undorsland why such a reassuring tele-' gram should have been sent to the Can-i adian Government. Their information is' that the whole city was practically de- stroyed, and that for ten miles out in the surrounding countiy there is hardly a habitable house. CIIAS. AlcGILLS SENTENCE.
