SOCIALISTS JAILED
 BY THE WHOLESALE.
Other Judges Partially Undo the Work
 of Judge Humphries.

Seattle. Wash, Oct. 2.-Superior Judge John I1. Humphries today sent twelve men and six women to the county jail for contempt of court in defylng him in his decisions against socialists. Later consultation of other judges of the superior court was held and ThorWald Siegfried, an attor- ney who previous had complained to the bar association of Judge Humph- ries' excessive use of the writ of in Junction, was requested to apply for a writ of habeas corpus for the prisoners. S1egffed applied to Judge Everett Smith for the release of Glenn Hoover. attorney for the Free Speech Defense league and former assistant attorney general of Washington, and G. NJ Hodgson, one of the signers of "Reso- lutions of Protest against Judge Humphries' aDtl-Street speaking in- functions, and they were released on their own recognizance. Each had a short time before been sentenced to pay 3, $100 fine for contempt, while in addition Hoover had been forever disbarred' by Judge Humphries, and HOdgson was sent to jail for six months.
 Judge Smith said he would release all the prisoners who sought freedom on writs of habeas corpus. Judge Humphries was very angry when he heard of he consultation of his fellow judges and the release of the prison CTS. He denounced the other judges and declared the right of habeas cor puS did not apply in contempt cases.
 The scene in Judge Humphres' court late today w. s remarkable. The court room was janned to suffocation and the crowd interrupted and applauded frequently. Most of the prisoners were aTTaigned and expressed anew their contempt for the judge and defed him. Glenn Hoover attorney for the prison CTS, was fined. disbarred and ordered removed to j,1ii as soon as he began to speak.
 Attorney Hulet M. Wells. socialist candidate for mayor at the last eiec- tion, was disbarred and fined without being permitted to speak.
 Mrs. Humphries, secretary of a So- cialfst local, was dismissed with a small fine. the judge saying he did not wish to himiljate a member of his own Scotch clan.
 Mrs, Willia.n McNaly stood un with a baby in her arms The ju0ge said he did not wish to send a baby to jail,
 Never mind" the woman said bit teriy, the taby is as guilty as am"
 She was fined sl0e and sent to jail with the baby and a little boy. The wOFnan's husband a Spanish War vet eran, was also fined $I00 and sent to jail Six women and two children are in the county Jail tonight

Court AdjOurns
 Until Monday
sULzER's DEFENCE WILL THEN
 BE BEGUN
GOVERNOR TO TESTIFY
over-ruIes Objections of Some of His Attorneys, Asserting That His Tes-
 timeny is Indispensable to Defence.

Albany, N. Y. Oct. 2..Only a brief session of the impeachment trial of Governor Sulzer was held today and then an adjournment until Monday af- ternoon was granted by Presiding Judge Cullen. This was done in order that the attorneys for the governor might have time to perfect their plans for opening the case. Judge D. Cady Herrick, chief of the counsel for the defense, said he and his associates douotless would be ready to proceed Monday.
 Lawyer Hinnan Breaks Down.
 The illness of Senator Harvey D. Hlnman, who plans to open the case for the defense, is causing his asso- ciates much worry. He is able to be about the city, but he is in highly nervous condition. He has been un- able to sleep. This is due mainly to the fact that he has been working through the regular court sessions and then spending a greater part of each night at the executive mansion, going over details of the case with the gov ernor. The governor is a tireless night worker and as he has been able to sleep until noon every day, the strain mas not told on him as 1t has on Hin man.
 suIzer Determined to Testify.
 Of he plans of the defense little is known except that Hfnman will out llne the defense if he is able and that Louis 4. Sarecky, formerly the gov ernor's campaign seeretary, will tes- tify there IS no doubt, nor has there been at any time within the last ten days, Some members of his counsel opposed his taking the stand, but he used all his persuasive powers and hnaliy brought them to see his view of the situation-that his story would be indispensable to his defense A long conference was held between the gov ernor and his attorneys tonight at the Peoples House"
 Effort to Strike Out Evidence.
 Efforts of Attorneys Herrick and Austen G. Fox today to have certain testimony stricken from the record brought the statement from the court that this motion would have to be re- newed when all the evidence was in.
 1 shall hold,' Judge Cullen said. that all motions Investigating the probatiVe force of competent evidence must be left until the final submission of the case"
 All Welcomed Recess.
 This ruling caused Mir. Fox to re- traln from making q motion to strike out articles 3, f, ). : and & as he had v -anued, The motion will be made later in the case. however These articles deal with all of the governor s alleged impeachable acts except those investigating financial transactions. A motion to strike out the money ar ucles' already is before the cous4. It. too, will be decided when all the tes- timOny is in.
 Members of the court and the at torneys were not averse to the recess until Monday and most of them. ex- cept~ those actively enga ged with the defense hurried home tonight

MYSTERY ENViRONS
 THE STABBING CASE
Doubts as to How Miss SingIeton's
 Injuries We're Inflicted.

New York, Oct 2.-Mystery per plexed investigators tonight of Herman Oelrichs, millionaire law student at Columbia university, and Miss Lucille Singleton, daughter of a. Texas mine owner. Although Oelrichs was held in @ magistrates court today for a hearing next Tuesday on the charge that he stabbed the girl in the breast while they were in his automobile a few nights ago, the question exists as to whether she received her injuries in this manner or from the jagged points of the broken windshield through which she was thrown when young Oelrichs' car crashed into tree.
 The case was further complicated to- day by statement by OelrichS' law yer to the effect that a third person, said to be Columbia university stu dent, was in the automobile with Oel- richs and Miss Singleton. The identity of this person was not disclosed by Oelrichs' lawyer, who characterized as absolutely ridiculous the charge that his client stabbed Miss Singleton.
 Miss Singleton did not appear in court today to press the complaint and was said tonight to be still in bed. The physician who attended her at a hos pital after the automobile accident stated it was not possible to state how the cuts in her chest were in- licted. From Dallas Texas, came a. despatch stating that Edwin Single ton tho girls father, had received telegram from her to the effect that she had not been stabbed

Panama Canal
 is Undamaged
WITHSTAMDS THE TEST OF AN
 EARTHQUAKE
GOETHAL'S STATEMENT
Personal Inspection of Locks Made by Lieutenant Colonel Sibert - Los Santos Province Damaged $1oo,o00.

Panama. Oct Absolutely no damage was done by last nights earthquake to any part of the canal.
 This signed statement was issued this evening by Col George w. GOethals, chairman and chief engineer, iSthmian canal commission The canal officials are greatly pleased tonight over the fact that within the space of one week the Gatun locks have been called upon to respond to two supreme tests and in each case proved equal to the denaI l.
 Personal Tour of the Locks.
 On Friday last it was demonstrated beyond question that the lock operat- ing mechanism works perfectly and that vessels can be locked through at will While the earthquake test was not figured on, still, in one sense, the event came oLportunely, inasmuch as it has showed to the world that 1t will take more than the ordinary earth quake to cause irreparabIe damage to the lock structures and dams.
 Lieutenant Colonel Sibert went over the great part of the Gatun locks in person today and satisfied himself that there had been no damage. Col onel Goethals was early assured that the canal works had suffered no injury and before noon on the isthmus practt- cally everyone knew of the fact.
 One Death from Fright.
 The president of Panama, pr. Bells saTio Porras. personally inspected the canal works this afternoon and learned with great relief that the quake had left the canal unharmed.
 Reports received up to late tonight from different parts of the iSthnus in dicate that the disturbance was pure Iy of a local character, with the great est intensity in Los Santos province, 120 miles from this city. A late des- patch from tie city of San Santos es- inmates the damage there at S25,000 and in the ertire province at $1ooooo. Twenty six tTemorS were counted in Los Santos city. No lives were report ed lost, with ,he exception of one death from fright.
 Famous Flat Stood 175 Years,
 The history of earthquakes in Pana- ma during tho last 200 years shows that disturbances in the neighboring republic of Costa Rica are rarely per ceptible in this part of the isthmuS and that a sE ock in this locality does not usually extend to Costa. Rica- Furthermore. the movement generally reaches it's maximum intensity in the province of Los Santos.
 Canal experts have always pinned great faith tC the fact that no quake has ever occurred strong enough to shake down the famous flat arch which has stood in Panama for 175 years.
