'-zuiZZZJ's RENEWED ANXIETY IS FELT IN CITY Rock Island People Stirred by Report from Los Angeles as Well as San Francisco. The anxiety so manifest on the pari of people in Rock Island for the safety of relatives and friends in California naturally continues. The late dispatch es appearing in last night Argus, that advices had been sent the war depart ment to the effect that Los Angeles had been stricken aroused even keen er interest than had been before evinc ed, owing to the fact that so many Rock Island; people ave there either as residents or visitors. Throughout the evening people crowded about The Ar gus bulletins to learn more of the sit uation at Los Angeles as well as at San Francisco, and when among the evening bulletins was one stating that while Los Angeles had experienced an earthquake, that it occasioned more ex citement and alarm than damage or in jury it occasioned much relief. With the appalling disaster at San Francisco before them it was natural that the people of Los Angeles should be in a high state of nervous excite ment and easily moved. Consequently when the first tremor came they rush ed into the streets and much confusion prevailed. When the shock had passed off, however, as the later dispatches relate, they returned to their homes and places of business. While some reassuring advices have been received in response to the many telegrams sent out from Rock Island, to relatives and friends in the far west, there has been a continuation all day today of the Interest in the bulletins, while constant inquiries have been made of The Argus by tele phone as to the latest news from San Francisco and Los Angeles. Today news came that Mr. and Mrs. I. S. White, child and nurse probably es caped the earthquake. Benjamin Pettit of Seattle, who is visiting in Rock Island and who re turns home Monday is anxious aboui his own city. He states that while Seattle usually feels the shock of earth quakes down the coast, there nevet has been a severe one there. The late disturbances wore of such an alarming nature, however, that the people there are apprehensive of subsequent qu:ikes. The incidents of the past three days, have served to again demonstrate the unreliablity of the so-called afternoon Chicago papers, which reach this city about 3:30 each afternoon and have been in the habit of finding ready street sale. When the batch came Wednesday and without so much as a word about the San Francisco calamity the newsboys themselves, who had boen busy for hours Felling The Argus extras, refused to handle the Chicago edition and it remained a dead weight on the hands of the local dealers. The Chicago evening papers that reach Rock Island during the day are fakes pure and simple. They contain no more than the regular morning papers in Chicago, except that it is gotten up in different shape. PERSONAL POINTS. Dr. II. M. Pettit of Carroll on, Mo., is visiting relatives in the city. Mrs. C. M. Witherell departs this evening for Chicago to remain over Sunday with her husband, who is there Mrs. Ben T.
