EARTH SHOCKS
AND THE CANAL
1t Us Asserted BY engineers Vino
Have Examined Conditions in
Panama That Damage to the
Canal Ii Net Probable.

Washington, Oct. Major Boggs
in charge of the shmian Canal Of
fees here, cabled to Colonel Goethals
at Panama this morning for details
OF the earth shocks on the lsthmus
last night, with special reference to
its possible effect Oh the Panama
Canal. This action was taken as a
measure of precaution. though the
officials felt that Colonel CGethals
would have advised them very
promptly had the canal sustained
any injury.
1t is recalled at the commissions
offices that from time to time there
have been slight earthquakes on the
Isthmus since the Americans assun-
ed charge OF the canal construction,
but in no case has there been any
damage whatever to the engineering
although a sensational report OF one
of these quakes about two years ago
caused considerable alarm
Could Cause Little Damage.
1t is said at the commissions Of
flee that very little danger OF extern
sive damage to the canal could have
been caused by an earthquake of re-
cord, not only on the lsthmlrs but in
this hemisphere.
IS Ear as ,le Isthr1uS itself X; con-
cerncd the records WHICH have been
carefully studied by tbs canal design
ers fail TO show the occurrence of
anything more than slight seismic
disturbances in that quarter as far
back as the history OF the Isthmus is
known. There are standing today
masonry structures erected several
centuries ago, which probably would
have been destroyed long ago by any
considerable earthquake.
But in addition to this reported ex-
emption of the lsthmus proper from
severe earthquakes, the army engi-
neeEs base their belief upon the
safety of the canal largely on the
wonderful enduring qualities OF the
modern reinforced concrete construc-
ton, which is embodied in all of the
great locks, dams and approaches OF
the canal.
C0nrete Work Undisturbed.
During, the San Francisco earth
quake, through the Zine of fault"
representing the point of most i'm
minelt danger, ran directly through
the Mare Island navy yards, the grea,
concrete dock there was absolutely
lndisturbed, and the same was true
CT the reinforced buildings in San
Francisco. 1t is said at the canal
offices that there was no connection
whatever between last nights earth
quake and the extensive earth slides
into the Culebra cut at Cucaracha,
reported yesterday. The later move
ment has been in slow but continuous
process, but it's only ill-effects might
be to cause a pOStponemer.. for a
few days or weeks of the opening o!

Thursday that the crop, while a light

ever known.
Peaches are selling at from $3.50
to $3.50 f. o. b." said Mr.. Marks.
More than 1000 cars have already
been shipped. most OF them going to
New York, being divided between New
York, Philadelphia and Boston. 'Geor-
gia Bellies and Elbertas' form the

"A sharp frost caused a short yield,
but the high prices which the
peaches are bringing more than make
up for this"
The "peachy" girls are here in
abundance, however, and even the h)J
weather is not driving all the Atlanta
beauties TO the cooler summer re

81 JANIS B. NEYIN

You never can tell,
The grand young county of Gambler
on Thursday morning looked to be as
good a bet as one might stake his
coin upon-and to-day, like Caesar
dead, there are none so poor as to do
it reverence!
Perhaps that isn't quite fair to
Gambler, for there is a good chance
that it may be reconsidered, and go
over to next year, when, in forget
fulness of the bitterness of Thurs
days fight on the floor of the House,
Gambler yet may come into its own.
Unquestionably, a serious tactical
error was made when the friends of
Gambler, even without intending any
thing arbitrary, perhaps, moved the
previous question, and thereby closed
debate save from their own point of
view
1t requires a two-thirds vote of the
House to pass a Constitutional
amendment. whereas II only requires
a majority to order the previous
question. The previous question,
having been ordered by that majori-
ty, however. it Immediately gave the
minority opposition the right to
raise the cry of Gag rule" which
to raise-vociferously and with dead
ly effect upon Candlerl
The majority, seeing its blunder
undertook to right things-but too
late
Burwell. as fair and impartial a
presiding officer as ever held the
gavel, plainly was anxious to relieve
the House of its embarrassment If he
could, but under the rules, he could
not. The House had tied his hands.
Several virtuous gentlemen, who had
not even called for a division on the
vote for the previous question. were
very much outraged that the previ-
GUS question had been ordered.
nevertheless-and their expressions
upon the floor with respect to that
feeling Of outrage evidently i'm
pressed the House profoundly, as the
House proceeded to sustain said out
ragged point of view.
Altogether the fight on Gambler
was as pretty a piece of claptrap as
ever was slipped over-but it was
slipped, all right, and that is what
hurt Gamblers feelings!
Moral: Never be too sure your
enemy can not throw straight, even
if he is left handed!
Undoubtedly there is genuine merit
in the Gambler County proposal, and
there hardly is a doubt that even
tually a new county will be created
there.
And the Candlerites may get some
consolation from that, after all!

say in the Springplace Jimplecute,
no doubt-of the well-known Geor-
gian mentioned, will read the follow

Of the Atlanta post is valuable"

would be made a brigade post, but In
