Bix known persons were killed by
yesterday's explosion. Fortunately
the drawbridge had been open some
time, and three or four hundred people
on their way home from work, f r
South Boston, were detained on this
side. Had the explosion occurred a
few minutes later the loss would have
been fearful. It is supposed that the
pipe burst owiug to the oold weather
and the gas had accumulated uuder
ground.
CAIIFORXIA.
8a Fbamcisoo, Deo. 23. Oen.
Bcliofleld ordered a company of the
first cavalry to San Diego for border
service. Six hundred armed revolu
tionists have oroasad the border from
Mexico,
A dispatch fromtJan Diego confirms
the report of anarchy in Sonora, Mex
ico. The revolution is in progress
and the Yaqui Imlians are in the re
volt Gov. Pesqnera has levied a spe
' cial to carry on war. The revolution
ary party reported are about to invade
Sinalio and business is prostrated. No j
further demonstrations nave been
made by the banditti at Campo. The
fresenoe of Perse from San Diego
etps them comparatively quiet, but
they threaten to have revenge for the
hooting snd hanging their comrades
in a reoent raid. Otm Lopez has been
in command of the banditti sinoe the
death of Chares. The Mexicans living
on the border, with a few exceptions,
are in league with the banditti. A
cavalry company will leave here to
morrow for San Diego.
T1KCIMA.
Rwhmoho, Deo. 23. There was a
tea second's . earthquake immediately
followed by a terrific one, at forty min
te past eleven o'olock last nigtit,
which oausdd much alarm. The os
cillations were south to north. Shooks
were felt St several points in the State.
The shock felt here Jail night were
veritable earthquake shocks and no
mistake. No comparisons can be made
with any similar antecedent event, ia
asmuoh as it was the first ever expe
rienced here. The statements of per
sons residing In different seotions of
the city ooinoide in the main as to the
vibrations aud duration of the force of
the shooks. A short time after the
; cessation of the shooks, the streets
were alive with frghteoed and excited
people. Many nude their way to the
newspaper and telegraph offices to
learn the extent of the phenomena,
while the others, of a more nervous
- temperament, remained in the streets
for hours, not daring to return to tbeir
bonnes for foae of a repetition of the
Shocks, but the remaiuder of the night
rassed oil without farther disturbance.
To-dsy this remarkable epoch in Rich
mond's history was the general topio
of conversation, it being discussed in
aU its phases, each one having their
own experience to relate. Telegram!
frutn various points iu Virginia report
shocks similar to tLoee felt here. In
some places a greater number of shocks
are reported than in others. None of
the reports agiee as to the direction of
tue oscillation. As far as heard from,'
the shocks were not felt south of Pe
tersburg, west of Lynchburg, north
of Alexandria nor east of City Point
or the James river. J
Aloug the Chesapeake aud Ohio
Railroad, the shocks wore felt as far
as Btauutou, 180 miles north of Rich
mond. They were also felt along the
linn of the Richmond and Dauville
Railroad to (he sontheru border of the
S ate. The probability is tbat tLe
shocks in Rich notid were as severe as
at any other poiut, as no damage worth
mentioning is reported from any di
rection. NonroLg.,Dt'0.2:l. The stockholders
