them encouragement. however. by relat-
ing that wireless reports might be pos
sible, if other communication from the
tracks were cut OF.

all the doors were guarded by deputies.
For several hours all were kept within the
building until train bound for Chicago

Fears Regarding Panama.

Weather bureau officials were appre-
hensive yesterday lest the earthquake,
recorded early in the morning, occurred
on the Isthmus of Panama.
Colon is 2,1OO miles from here. AS the
wave was south-southwest, and calculated
at about 1000 miles distant, they believe
there was some ground for their fears.
Fhe following official bulletin was is
sued by Willis l.. Moore, chief of the
weather bureau, in the afternoon:
IAN unusually strong earthquake at a
moderate distance was recorded by the
seismographs at the weather bureau this
morning at hours minutes and 80 sec
onds am. seventy-ffth meridian time.
The second preliminary tremors began at
hours minutes and SO seconds and the
strong motion just three minutes later.
The amplitude of the motion was un-
usually great, causing the pen to pass off
the record sheet in some cases. The
origin is estimated to have been at a
distance about 2,O6O miles from Wash
ington and probably to the south or
southwest. The total duration of the
record was nearly two hours
