Five hurricanes ripped the North American mainland, only the third time this century so many have done so, according to Schubert. The most severe hurricanes Juan, Elena, and Gloria each caused about $1 billion in damage. In Puerto Rico, a 30-hour tropical deluge in October triggered a landslide that roared down a steep hillside, obliterating the Mameyes shantytown. About 150 people were killed as the mud ground up and buried the tiny wood and tin shacks. Wildfires ravaged more than 1 million acres across the western United States in the summer, and floodwaters inundated the South in the fall.

Several people transferred from Rajneesh's plane to a chartered Northeast airlines jet, which left for Shannon, Ireland. The plane that carried Rajneesh from Portland took off for Oregon about the same time. About a dozen disciples went with Rajneesh, including secretary, Ma Prem Hasya; his physician, Swami Devaraj, and president of the Rajneesh Investment Swami Dhyan John. At Rajneeshpuram, the guru's controversial commune in central Oregon, about 3,000 followers watched Rajneesh leave Thursday afternoon, spokeswoman Ma Dhyan Rosalie."

The Dublin government's presence here would give local Catholics a place to bring their grievances. It is the first time the republic will have a formal consultative role in governing Northern Ireland since the island was partitioned 64 years ago.

The extremist Irish Republican Army has long fought an underground war to wrest the Protestant-dominated north from the United Kingdom and unite it with the southern republic. More than 2,450 people have been killed in bombings, assassinations and ambushes since 1969. Thatcher and FitzGerald signed the pact at exactly 2 p.m. (7 a.m. MST) in an elegant goldand-white salon of the 188-yearold Hillsborough Castle, 12 miles south of Belfast, the Northern Ireland capital.

After exchanging documents, Mrs. Thatcher and FitzGerald shook hands in front of hundreds of reporters and photographers. The ceremony was broadcast live on television and radio throughout the province. The two leaders had flown separately by helicopter to the castle today, after the British and Irish cabinets approved the pact Thursday. Hundreds of armed police of the Royal Ulster Constabulary surrounded the site, once the home of the British provincial governor.

"I'm at the same time sad and relieved. I'm sad for this country and what they have done to him. I'm relieved that he can get out of here." One of Rajneesh's attorneys, Brian O'Neill, said the guru still "asserts his innocence" but changed his plea because of his concern about "possible danger or possible harassment were he to remain" in the United States. Rajneesh, wearing a striped blue-and-white robe, softly replied, "Guilty," when Leavy asked for his plea. is clearly in the public interest," Turner said.

"It saves the time and expense of trial. It vindicates the investigation of this office and the INS. It's a public acknowledgement of guilt by Rajneesh." Turner said the guru also would order the dismissal of four civil lawsuits filed by his sect, two against the INS, one against the State Department and one against U.S. Attorney General Edwin M. Meese and other officials.

Rajneesh could have been sentenced to 175 years prison and fined $350,000. The charges were handed up by a federal grand using dogs trained to sniff out explosives.

Federal prosecutors said Rajneesh was trying to flee to Bermuda to escape prose-: cution. Seven of the guru's followers or former followers also face immigration charges. They include Ma Anand Sheela, the guru's deposed personal secretary who is in a West German jail on Oregon charges that she and others tried to murder Rajneesh's physician. Sheela and about a dozen other commune leaders left Rajneeshpuram abruptly the weekend of Sept. 14.

Rajneesh immediately began accusing those who left of a variety of crimes, including poisoning and wiretapping. His charges triggered a massive investigation by federal, state and local authorities. A Wasco County grand jury, which issued the indictment against Sheela and two others on the attempted murder charge, is continuing its investigation.

Ramirez, shackled hand and foot, waived his right Thursday to a speedy trial on 68 felony charges in the series of California attacks and killings. Defense lawyers asked Municipal Court Judge Candace Cooper to put the case back to May, but she said February was time enough to prepare for the case.

Besides the 14 murder counts, Ramirez faces charges that include attempted murder, burglary, rape, sodomy and robbery in the series of attacks and killings between June 1984 and August 1985. Big haul made in illegal recordings RIDGEFIELD, N.J. (AP) -FBI agents seized counterfeit Elvis Presley and country music recordings valued at $10 million in raids here and in eight other cities, a spokesman said. "We filled two 40-foot trailers, plus another 20-foot truck with materials," Mike McDonnell, special agent in charge of the FBI's Newark office, said Thursday. No arrests were made in Wednesday's raids because the investigation is still in its early stages, McDonnell said.

"I think it was past 11 o'clock last night when we heard a frightening noise, and then a blast of wind hit us and we saw fire falling from the sky," Nieto said. "It was horrible, so horrible." There was so much fiery ash in the streets that "they burned my feet," he said.

Nieto said he saw the local radio station radio El Sol engulfed in flames. "I saw it on fire, suddenly it was buried by, the mud, but I think the people working there got away in their truck." he said.
