TERMS ARE LENerHENEp

Washington, Oct. 2.-The terms of
office Of the five circuit judges now
serving on the United States com
merce court which would have end
ed at once under the provisions pass
ed recently by the house, have been
extended to December 81, by the SEN
ate appropriations committee
The committee also endorsed the
provisions abolishing the commerce
court and legislating its five judges
out of office, but gave the latter
about three months in which to pre-
pare for their retirement.
The senate committee added to the
bill $4,000 for the payment of as
sistants to the attorney general and
district attorneys in special govern
ment cases, $3.50 for a deficiency in
the fund for the enforcement of anti
trust laws and increased the salary of
the assistants to the attorney general
from $1,000 to $1,000.

CAUCUS or YESTERDAY RESULTS
IN AGREEMENT or VARIOUS
VARIOUS FACTIONS

Washington, Oct. 2. Democratic
support for the conference report on
the tariff bill appeared to be united
when the senate today began the
final consideration Of the democratic
revision of the measure. The all-day
caucus of yesterday, which had
threshed out the differences within
party ranks and brought about anan.
imous support of the conference re-
report, led Chirman Simmons Of the
finance committee, to hope that there
would be little delay in securing final
action on the bill.
Republican senators had not dis
closed the extent OF their proposed
criticism Of the conference report
when the days work began in the
senate.
A fruitless attempt further to de-
lay consideration Of the bill was
made BY Senator Penrose. He de-
clared that the printed copies Of the
bill as amended by the conference
committee furnished to the senate
were useless.
"The reading Of this conference re-
port is a farce he asserted. We
have no available copy Of the bill by
which we can tell what was done
in the conference This bill was
prepared in secret conference and
caucus by the majority. So far as
the minority members are concerned,
they might as well have been in
China. It is due to the American labor
er and the American manufacturers,
that when this tariff gaillotine falls
it shall fall with due solemnity and
decorum0
Senator Penrose moved that consid-
GRAFTON Of the report go over until a
| special print could be made, but this
was laid on the table by a vote Of
SO to l6. Senators Penrose and
Simmons engaged in rather heated
passage about secrecy in the prepa-
ration Of legislation
"The senator from Pennsylvania
has had enough to do With the pre-
paration Of tariff bills in secret a
the dictation Of the special Interests
to be an authority en- that subject
remarked Senator Simmons i'd reply
to the criticism Of democratic me
thods.
j Senator Penrose made every posi-
BILE objection to the various amend
ments as they we're considered anG

Thirteen Shocks FeIt

The official statement issued this
afternoon concerning the earthquake
shows that the first tremor was not
noticeable except on the seismograph
at the Ancon observatory. It occur
red at l:40 o'clock yesterday after
noon. The next and greatest shock
was felt at 11:25 last night Between
then and 5:1S this morning, eleven
other tremors we're recorded.
The violence of the vibration at
1924 O'Clock last night was so great
that it threw off the seismograph and
consequently an exact record Of its
duration was not obtainable, It ap-
parently lasted from 20 to rs seconds,
The instruments showed the common
point of origin of the shocks to be tc
the north of Colon in the Caribbean
sea. The Gatun dam and the canal
locks sustained absolutely no injury.
Investigation at Panama showed
that more damage had been done than
it had been at first believed. AL
though no walls were seriously i'm
paired slight cracks appeared in sew
era1 concrete pavings, particularly on
Twelfth street near Santa Ana Place
Three hours after last nights dis
turbance one Of the Central and South
American cables broke about ISL
miles north OF Panama. This may
have been a coincidence or the result
Of the shocks. The break caused nc
inconveniece to the cable oompany'i
traffic The earthquake appears tx
have been of a submarine character.

6, and whether the application to pri-
vate uses of funds given without re-
striction constituted larceny.
If the court ruled favorably to the
defense in the first Of these questions
it was generally admitted that the
case practically would be at an end
Most of the board of managers case
was built on these three articles.
The question of larceny also was a
big one, for, with a few exceptions,
contributors whose gifts were not ac-
counted for in the governors cam
paign statement testified that they
had not specified what use the gov
ernor should make Of the money they
gave him.
The sudden closing of the case Of
the board of managers yesterday came
as surprise to the defense and found
them unprepared for opening their
case Doubt was expressed if the
side of the case would get
under way until next week. At all
events, it was planned to ask for an
until Monday.

lonious assault, Herman Oelrich, son
of the late steamship magnate, was
released on $1,000 bail for hearing
Tuesday. The postponement was
given on account Of complainant, Miss
Lucille Singleton, who says she is the
16-year-old daughter Of a Texas mine
owner. The girl alleges that Oelrich,
who was known to her as BILLY
Creighton" had stabbed her Tuesday
night while they were automobile rid
ing.
Young Oelrich Was released shortly
after his arrest upon his mother ap-
pearing at the police station, and fur
nished $4,000 bail, giving her 100000
residence as security,
Miss Mary Chambers, principal Of
the Darlington seminary at West

says she attended senool, was hunted
today as having said over the long dis
tance telephone:
"a Miss Lucille Singleton attended
the seminary for year ana
half, and she left last April or May.
She was quiet and one Of the most
studious students. Her registered adj

Miss Lucille Singleton, injured in
an automobile ride Tuesday night,

Hermann OeIrichs, knowns to her as
4Bnly Creighton today. The young
woman remained in bed suffering
wounds which from the varying YER
sions Of the affair may have been
inflicted with sharp instrument or
may have been caused by broken
glass from the windshield which was
demolished when young Oelrichs'
automobile was wrecked.
Deputy Commissioner Dougherty,
who has charge Of the police end Of
the case, seid this afternoon,
Il have learned that Mis- Singleton
received each month a check from
Dallas, Texas. The checks were from

The only serious damage to build
ings in the city OF Panama was the
shaking down Of some ii the plaster
and fresco interiors OF the famous
flat-arched santo Domingo church.
Colonel Goethals has received re-
ports from every part OF the canal
territory stating that no damage wnat
ever mas resulted.
Reports Of damage in the interior
towns Of the Panama republic began
to come m iaIe this Afternoon. The
earthquake appears to have been par
ticularly violent in the province of
Los Santos, where the government
palace in the city of Los Santos was
wrecked and the police station badly
cracked.
At Truarcirco Villa one house was
ruined and two others fell down.
The towers Of the churches at Ma
caracat and Los Tablas were wrecked.
In the latter place several other build-
ings we're destroyed.
AT Pese the village priest called
his congregation into the church, but
the people were ordered out again BY
the civil authorities. One woman
died Of fright in Penonome.
Reports received by the Panama
government from the province Of
Chiriqui indicate that the earthquake
was severe in that section, but that
the damage was small. The schools
in the city Of Panama were ordered
closed today in anticipation Of further
shocks. The siesmic disturbance does
appear to have extended far to the
west or the north.
Wireless adyices from Borcas del
Tero, port near the Costa Rican
boundary, state that the town was
badly shaken, but no material damage
resulted.
From Port Limon, Costa Rica,
comes the news that the earthquake
was scarcely noticeable in that couR
try.
If the disturbance was more serious
anywhere it must have been in some
Of the West Indian islands Or Ecuador.

THE STRUCTURE HELD FAST
ENGINEERING WORK DID NOT
sUccUMR TO VIBRATIONS OF
THE EARTH
commissioners ARE WORRIED
BUT NO NEWS OF DISASTER
COMES FROM COCKTAILS, IN
CHARGE OF WORK

Washington, Oct 2.-Recorded Vi
brations Of what evidently was the
earthquake which visited the Panama
canal zone late last night were shown
on the seismograph at the George
town University observatory here.
The vibration lasted from about
1885 o'clock until about 10 minutes
after midnight and the motion was
confined to an east and west direc-
ton The instrument showed that
the earthquake was 1000 miles or
more distant from here.
Major Boggs, in charge of the 18TH
mian canal offices in this city, this
morning cabled to Colonel Goethals
at Panama for details Of the earth
shock on the isthmus with special
reference to its possible effect on the
Panama canal This action was taxi
en- as measure OF precaution, though
the officials felt that Colonel Goe-
thals would have advised them very
promptly had the canal suffered any
substantial INJURY.
It is recalled at the commission Of
foes that fron tiaa to tigae there
have been slight shocks Of earth
quake experienced in the isthmus, but
in no case has there been any dam
age whatever to the engineering work,
although a report from these quakes
about two years ago caused consid-
cradle alarm at the time. 1t is said
at the commission offices that very
little danger Of extensive injury to
the canal coulu have been caused by
any earthquake of record, not only
on the isthmus but in this hemi-
sphere.
AS far as the isthmus itself is con-
cerned the records which have been
carefully studied by the canal COM
missioners fail to show the occur
renee of anything more than slight
seismic disturbances in that quarter
as far back as the history Of the
isthmus is known There are stand
ing today masonry structures erected
several cenries ago, which probably
would have been destroyed long ago
by any considerable earthquake

Meat is Growing Scarce

Lake Charles, La, Oct. 2.-Lake
Charles citizens today did not know
whether to expect rise or fall Of the
water that has flooded this city and
a large portion of southwest Louisia-
ma for several days. Reports from
up-river points were that rain had
fallen in many places and that the
river was rising rapidly Some Of the
flood water however, had found an
outlet to the low prairie country.
Meat is becoming scarce here.
Notwithstanding reports of the river
rising above here the water began
receding at noon. 1t is believed the
