GENEVA. Switzerland, April 29:“
Earthquake s‘hocas were felt here at

habitants were somewhat alarmed
and many of them rushed into the
streets, but the damage done in this
city was very slight.
The shocks were felt throughout the
Canton de Valois and elsewhere.
They were accompanied by subterran~
can rumblings. Home houses were
damaged in the Canton do Valoiu.
The shocks apparently were more
severe at Chamonix and in its neigh-
borhood than elsewhere, Houses were
cracked and some old monuments
were badly damaged. The church at
Argontieros was so shaken that its
condition is dangerous. '

unable to unfurco burials. ‘Cilrpseii
were thrown into the streets to do-
compose aud agreed contagion. But
little headway ad been made in the
