Birmingham and Alabama
Given Severe Fright, But
Damage Is Not Serious
Continued from Page one)

a storm was accompanied by an earth
quake before. The cause of the quake
is due to a slipping of a large section
of the earth, a sort of settling.
while an earthquake of the intensity
of that of today is rare, the seismo-
graph, which records tremors of the
earth, would show that the earth is
constantly trembling. But the shocks
are not pronounced"
SEVERAL WILD REPORTS
AS natural consequence of the
earthquake, currency was given to a
series of wild and sensational reports.
One story ran the rounds that
Charleston had been destroyed by earth
quake.
Another, attributing the shock to the
explosion of Robertstown furnace at
Bessemer, was foisted off on the avid
listeners, while a cave-in of mine No.
mines, blown up by great explosion,
had caused the whole district to be
rocked by the detonation, was another
wild and lurid tale.
OF course, none of them was true.
MANY AMUSING INCIDENTS
Little incidents, CLEANED from vari-
GUS persons, show the uncertainty that
prevailed after the shock.
Fred Shireman, manager of the Hotel
Tutwiler, was confined to his bed at
the time of the earthquake He said
that he thought that his little girl, in
spirit of mischief, was under the bed

on the ground talking to him remark ID
on the earths trembling,

never knew there were so many bald
headed men in Birmingham until after
the shock. Every other man who
rushed down from the downtown office

W. D. Nesbitt, but for the intelli-
gence of others, would never have
known there had been an earthquake.
During the quake he was descending
an elevator of the Empire building,
and never felt the tremor of the earth.
UNEASY AT COURTHOUSE
One of the courtrooms that managed
to maintain some degree OF dignity
was that in which Probate Judge j. p.
Stiles was presiding. The contest on
the will of Marion F. Hughes was in
it's closing stages as Judge Dan A.
Greene began his argument for the
defense when the shock came. The
room distinctly shook, but Judge
Greene kept on in his address to tho
jury and the whole incident passed
off without comment until some per-
son came in the room and informed
some of the spectators that there had
been an earthquake.
In practically all the courtrooms OF
the building the earthquake shock
stopped proceedings and there was n
general exodus for the street.
In the solicitors office. w. S. Welsh,
one of the assistant solicitors, a news
paper man and Morris Allen, another
assistant solicitor, were chatting on
current politics when the quake start
ed. To the trio it appeared that part
of the courthouse was falling and Mr..
Welsh, little ra'e sa d:
There is something wrong, I think"
81 know d-n well there is" chirped
Morris Allen, and then all three started
for the corridors W tn the evident
purpose of leaving while the leaving
was good.
On Highland avenue a bridge party
was in progress when the shock oc-

card players into fever of fear. One

DEMONSTRATION AT SYRACUSE

At several stops local democrats had
engaged bands which played when Mr.
Wilson appeared. Here at Syracuse the
biggest demonstration of the day was
staged Members of a democratic club
marched alongside the train as it ran
through the city and red lights flared.
Democratic speakers in automobiles adj
dressed the crowds which lined the
tre cks.
AS the Presidents car passed through
Albany, the engineers on nearly a score
of locomotives blew their whistles
shrilly Local politicians boarded the
train at several stops and met Mr.. Will
son.
Tomorrow morning the President S
train is to make brief stops in Indiana.

CHEERING THRONGS
GREET WILSON ON
HIS WAY WESTWARD
At All Stops in State of New
York Splendid Demon
strati0ns Were Given
the President

Syracuse, N. Y. October 1S-(on Board
President Wilson's Special Train Pres
ident Wilson was greeted by cheering
crowds at 10 New York cities and towns
during brief stops made this afternoon
and tonight as he passed through the
state on his way to Chicago, where is to
deliver three addresses tomorrow. At
Syracuse he got his first glimpse, during
the campaign, of red lights burning in
his honor
The President refused to make ex-
tended speeches, but in each town he
thanked the crowds briefly for coming
to see him. At Albany he said:
Il am very poor hand, my friends,
at commencing myself. You all know
just exactly what has been done by the
present administration, and you know
just as well as 1 do how to judge it,
so that 1 am perfectly content to leave
myself in the hands of the jury"
SECOND LINCOLN
AT Oneida tonight a man in the crowd
shouted:
'Hurrah for the second Abraham Lin
con.''
the President called back.
Mr.. Wilson appeared on the obser-
Walton platform of his private car at
Harmon, Poughkeepsie, Albany, Science
tady, Amsterdam, Fonda, Utica, Rome
and Oneida before reaching Syracuse.
Stops of more than five minutes were
made here and at Albany, but at the
other places the train paused for only
a minute or two.
The Presidents hand was shaken SO
vigorously at Albany that the skin was
torn off finger on his right hand and
for several minutes he stood with a
bloody handkerchief in one hand, shak-
ing hands with the other.
It's good, red blood, anyway" called
out one man.
Tonight DIR. Cary T. Grayson the
White House physician, bound up the
injured finger and Mr.. Wilson used his
left hand in greeting those who met
him
