Tremors Felt in Several Parts of the
State But No Damage Is
Reported.
San Francisco. Oct, 22. San Fran
cisco residents were, awakened today
by an earthquake Ehock that started
the guests of the downtown hotels.
Not a building in the city, -even of
the oldest and flimsiest construction,
was damaged expect for a few broken
windows and cracked plaster.
Some- hotel . guests dressed and
sought the-open. spaces, where they
remained a.Ebort time and then re
turnd to their roomsT The shocks of
which four were, felt here, extended
from S?nta Rosa, CP miles north, to
Paso Kohles, 180 miles south.
The first tremor was registered 'by
the University of 'California seis
mograph at 4:26 a, x, the second an
hour later arid two o4irs at 6f42 and.
8:04. The first was" tie -sharpest.. The
lact was not felt generally. ; ,
Merchants in . the downtown
stores reported ; their f tocks were un
distrubed and those dealing in, china
said they suffered no loss.
The center of the disturbance was
70 miles south of here in Monterey
county. The city that met today's
shocks is vastly different from the
frame and brick city that was largely
destroyed in the 1906 earthquake and
fire. Steel frame construction which
proved practically immune from
earthquake damage in 106 is today
the rule.
Some Queen Pranks.
At Stockton the courthouse clock
was stopped and the chandeliers in
the Ftnte hopitsl for the insane were
whirled 2round by the temblor.
On the Monterey pen in?ula win
dows end disiies were rattled and
small household articles were broken.
In Oakland the Sfthlesinger depart
ment store reported a queer prnnk of
the rocking. A wax model plunged
through a plate g!a?sjvvindow into the
street and was decapitated. The ball
on top of the flagpole of Oakland's
city hall was reported missing, and
water pipes at the Oakland Technical
High school were broken.
The temblor appeared to movf? in
the path of the famous San Andreas
fault, which skirts the coast of north
ern California.
In Santa Cruz the famous Casa
Del Reo hotel was the point of great
est local disturbance, but only a small
portion of the plaster fell over the
main entrance.

Indianapolis, Oct. 23. With deni
als from Senator Wctson, republican,
Indiana, that he had any understand
ing with the Ku Klux Klan for its
political aid and from W. Lee Smith,
p-rend dragon, that the Indiana. klan
was stirpfjrtinjT that senator in his
campaign for re-election, the senate
campaign fund3 committee Friday
praeticaily concluded its inquiry into
the political situation in this state.
After taking Senator Watson'
statement in his room at the Metho
dist hospital where he is recovering
from injuries received in an automo
bile accident, Senator Reed, democrat,
Missouri, the committee chairman,
h?ard Smith and half a dozen other
witnesses and then adjourned the
bearing to Kansas City next Monday.
Coming here from Chicago at the
request of Senator Watson, Senator
Rocd went to the senator's room with
a stenographer and took his statement.
The Indiana senator denied that the
klan was supporting him and asserted
that testimony given the committee
at Chicago that William F. Zum
brunn. counsel for the klan, had
sought to influence him in the contest
over the seat held by Senator May,
field, democrat, Texas, was without
foundation.
"The charges that Dr. Evans (im
perial wizard of the klan) and Zum
brunn made a deal with me by which
I was to receive klan support in In
diana if Senator Mayfield was seated
are absolutely and unqualifiedly
false," Senator Watson declared.
During the re-examination of K.
Earl Peters, chairman of the Indiana
state democratic committee. Senator
Robinson interjected additional testi
mony with a show of heat, declaring
that he never had changed his opinion
on the world court question and that
his vote on that question in the sen
ate was a matter of public record.
Peters retorted that he had been
informed that the senator had writ
ten a letter to members of the Irving
ton Methodist church here saying that
he favored American adhesion to the
court protocol.
.Several more former officers, of the
Indiana klan gave testimony that' it
was their understanding that the klan
was to "get behind" Senator Watson.
"Why were you to get behind Sen
ator Watson?" Senator Reed .asked
James Boland of this city.
"I don't know; that's what I'd like
to find out," Boland replied.

Kindly Words for Candidate
for Register of Deeds
Miss Jessie Robertson was calling on her
many friends in Louisville last Thursday.
She was accompanied by her father, James
M. Robertson. Miss Robertson was nomi
nated by the republican voters for register
of deeds at the primary election. On ac
count of illness she has been confined to
her home until recently and this was her
first visit to Louisville since her nomina
tion. She feels grateful to her friends in
this vicinity (her old home) for the splen
did vote given her at the primary and now
. asks their support at the election.
Louisville people know of her qualifica
tions. They also know that if she is suc
cessful at the November election,. the affairs
of the office of register of deeds will be
taken care of properly.
