Cnif.\(io, Sept. 11, --It tiihutc. that massive work of bronze that now crowns the stone arch near the Lincoln park .shore, and fin October 7 the p"ople will dedicate it. With favoring weather the ceremonies dedication will »jual in interest and magnituile any patriotic denumstration ever witnessed in Chicago. In the marching column that will puss along the lake front drive up to the towering pedestal with its draped summit, the militia and veterans will be at the head, for Grant was. above all other things, a soldier and the statue commemorates him as •such. lint close behind the grand army men will come civic organiza-
tk'uL.
Till. (illA.N STATt K.
tions. trades unions, benevolent societies and representative holies of citizens. *ren. Walter (J. (iresham will deliver the dedicatory oration from a platform built against the huge pedestal. The announcement of his selection will certainly be received with grateful approbation everywhere. Although (Jen. (iresham will be the principal speaker of the day other brief addresses will be made. Edward Taylor, in behalf of the Monument association. will formally deliver the statue to the Lincoln park board. W. C. Goudv, in behalf of the hoard, will respond. l»ncf speeches will also he. made by Mayor Wa-hburne, representing the ciU. and Gov. J-'ifer. representing the state. *)ther speakers may participate. but no more have been decided upon as vet.
Preparations for tne great parade which is to immediately precede the unveiling are now under way. with every indication that the spectacle will surpass anything of the kind previously attempted in the west. (ien. Nelson A. Miles has been chosen as chief marshal. I'liti'l he announces the rules governing the parade and is able to arrange the applications for places already accumulating no list of the marching organizations can be made, but it is known that the regulars. grand army posts and veteran associations of Chicago and vicinity will be in line. Collector John M. Clark is in charge of the proposed naval pageant, which is to be headed by the mau-of-war Michigan and the revenue cutters. The laud parade will form on the lake front, and will proceed by way of Kush ami other streets to the lake shore drive, thcuce to the monument.
Arrived at the park, the troops and inarching bodies will be drawn up in close order on the boulevard to the west of the monument. Immediately following the unveiling the president's salute of twenty-one guns will be tireil from the vessels in the lake and the artillery pieces on shone.
Maj. George II. HealTord, having in charge the transportation facilities, assisted by Gen Joseph Stockton, has arranged for special rates on every railroad leading into the city. From any point within :)00 miles of Chicago tickets will be sold at half fare, and Gen. I Stockton said it would be a reasonable estimate to say that 100,000 visitors will be here on October 7.

-Million*
of dollars v. orth of prooctv and anv lives were destroyed in this republic bv earthquake Wednesday. Whole towns were uij ed out. ami so far as advices received I ere indi* it.e hardly a city 111 the country, except those along the coast, escaped the awful cfleets of the convulsii n. 'I here have been indications for several days past that a seismic disturbance of more than usual power might be expected.
I he volcanoes of San Saivadore, San Attigtiel and I/.alco have been unusuallv uctiw, and deep subterranean rumblings and slight earth tremors have been telt such things are not uncommon here, however, and while there was a feeling of uneasiness here Tuesday night there was no great alarm felt.
At just live minutes before 2 o'clock W edncsday morning the earth hctran to shake. The waw* had a strong vertical and '»sc::iatory movement. People rushed ini» the streets in their night clothing, and while the shock lasted omy tueiUv seconds before had passed away [here was a panic-stricken mob making i's way to the open country outside of !h'^ eit v.
The scene was terribly sublime. Men, women and children were shrieking and praying in the streets walls of houses cracked, tottered and fell there was a deep, continuous rumbling of heavy thunder the skv was overcast and the air was tilled with a tine penetrating dust. While the shock lasted the earth rose and fell in long waves and strong men Avere unable to Keep their feet. The panic-stricken mob Hocked to the open ground outside of the city temporary shelters were thrown up wherever possible, but nearly all the men and a great many of the women and children had only the sky for a cover.
All through the morning there were slight shocks, but. none approaching in intensity that which was so destructive. The inhabitants were afraid to return to their houses and are making themselves as cointortaMe as possible in the temporary camps until rhe commotion subsides. President K/.cta is doing everything he can to stop the panic and care for the homeless people until it is considered sate for them to go buck to their homes. 'J he tow lis throughout the country have sutVered more severely than the capital even. Analaquito and Cotnasagua were destroyed. Cointepequc, Santa Trelu, San Pedro and Masaliuet were so badly shaken that they aro practically ruined, while the shock was plainly felt and damage was done bv it at Santa Anna and Susimtcpue, fully 00 miles from here.
It is impossible at this writing to form any idea a* to thenumberof lives which have been lost. Two peoplo were killed here, though there were many almost miraculous escapes from death. It is feared, however, that there have been many people killed in the smaller towns. The loss of property will run well into the pnllions.
This is the third time withiu less than forty years that San Salvador has been destroyed by earthquake shocks, ln April, lb*»4, not a single house was left in the city tit for habitation and over 300 lives were lost. The dust and debris from the falliug buildings filled up all of the wells and drinking places. Again in March, 187:5, the city was shaken to the ground. Over 85,000,000 worth of property was destroyed then and upward of fifty lives were lost.
