N.W, Features of Quake Telegraph companies held large ex- tra forces in service at San Francisco and Los Angeles last night to move thousands of messages which flooded in from Eastern points to the Santa Barbara earthquake region. The mes- sages were principally inquiries re- garding the safety of friends and rel- atives. Eight miles of Southern Pacific track north of Santa Barbara were twisted. Attempts were being made today to restore service over the track- torn area. “I have been through many quakes, but never one like this,” sald Man- ager Richmond of the Arlington Ho- tel. “It just took the hotel that we considered strong as a fortress and shook it back and forth as if it were a rag.” Father Englebrecht, an aged invalid priest, was being carried down the stairway on the historic old mission by a companion, Father Augusten. With the second shock they fell through a new hole in the floor below. Neither was injured. Heavy, sultry weather—earthquake *| mographer, weather—was prevalent in Santa Bar- bara yesterday. Of De la Guerra, “with a history equal to EI Patio,” the Associated Press correspondent wrote: “The faded green shutters were broken and twist- ed in the heap of gray clay—once the social gathering place of Spanish belles and caballeros. Montecito, where the homes of many millionaires are perched, was struck by the quake. Damage was done to the homes of W. H. Cowles of Spo- kane, George Owen Knapp and Fred- erick F. Peabody and others. — QUAKES ARE TRACED TO VOLCANIC ACTION Seismognphe-r Ascribes Recent Earth Shocks to Activity of Mount Lassen in California. By the Associated Press. ST. LOUIS, Mo., June 30.—The severe earthquakes in Montana and California may be attributed to the resumption of volcanic activity in R!ount Lassen, a peak in the Slerra Nevada range in the northwestern part of California, Brother G. E. Rueppel, St. Louis University seis- believes. The volcano has long been dormant, and was con- sidered extinct. “The volcanic activity of Mount Lassen, undermining a large area of the Rocky Mountains, has been the immedlate cause of the landslides which are changing the topography of that range and causing it to tiit gradually, especially in the northern district near Montana. “It 1s known that earthquakes are caused by a slipping or breaking of the earth’s crust as a result of strains. “These strains may be the result of shrinking of the earth’s interior, due to temperature changes, changes in surface weight due to erosion tak- ing materfal from one place to another in the course of a few hun- dred years, or from a tendency of the higher land to move toward sea- level. The tiitling of the Rocky Moun- tains has naturally produced an enormous strain along the Pacific coast, a region particularly weak because of the fault or break in the earth’s crust, extending all along the coast a few miles off shore. “Some readjustment must take place to relieve this strain and un- doubtedly the quake at Los Angeles and Santa Barbara is the effect of this readjustment.” PACIFIC’S BED SINKING, CHICAGO SCIENTIST SAYS Prof. Goode Advances Theory of Cause of Montana and Cali- fornia Earthquakes. By the Associated Press. CHICAGO, June 30.—The cause of the Montana and California earth- quakes lies at the bottom of the sea, explains Prof. J. Paul Goode of the department of geology of the Univer- sity of Chicago. The bed of the Pacific Ocean 1s sink- Ing is his opinion. “The ocean water rushes in on top and makes the density at that point greater. Something must come up when the sea bed sinks. That is the earth’s crust on the western flank of North and South America,” he sum- marized his theory. He takes it for granted both earth- quakes were part of the same crust slipping action. Earthquakes will continue in the Pacific zone for cen- turies, he thinks. D. C. WOMAN IN AREA. Mrs. H. S. Fisk Visiting in Zone Affected by Quake. One Washingtonian is known to be in the Santa Barbara earthquake zone, Mrs. C. Louise Fisk, wife of Howard 8. Fisk of 929 M street northwest, who is touring through the West. Mrs. Fisk left this city in company with Miss Esther Linkins of 3615 New- ark street, Cleveland Park, to attend the fourteenth biennial convention of the National Federation of Music Clubs at Portland, Oreg., where both ‘were sent as delegates from the local organization. Both are members of the Chaminade Club of this city, Miss Linkins being director of the club. The convention adjourned a week ago, Miss Linkins leaving for Alaska and Mrs. Fisk for southern California. Mrs. Fisk went to Oakland and San Franclsco, where she remained a few days visiting friends, and then to Santa Barbara, from which place she was expected to leave a few days ago, according to plans, for Los Angeles. From there she planned to go to Salt Lake City and visit her sisterin-law, Mrs. Bertha C. Thomas. A letter was received a few days ago by her daugh- ter, Miss Katherine Louise Fisk, con- taining views of the stricken city of Santa Barbara, which she visited. THE EVENING STAR, WASHINGTON, EXPERTS DIVIDED ON QUAKE'S GAUSE Montana Tremor, Earth Strain and Ocean Leak Are Most Prominent Theories. By the Associated Press. NEW YORK, June 30.—Experts were divided today as to the cause of the Santa Barbara earthquake. Ocean leakage, accumulated strain on the earth’s crust and extreme hot weather were among the causes assigned. There was also disagreement as to whether there was any relation be- tween the tremors in Montana and those which laid Santa Barbara in ruins. Some experts said that there was no connection, while others thought that the Montana shocks pulled the trigger that caused a 12. mile disturbance of rock strata under Santa Barbara and vicinity. Laid to Montana Tremor. Dr. Herman L. Fairchild, profes- sor emeritus of geology at the Uni- versity of Rochester (N. Y.), said that the Montana tremor, traveling under- ground, might have touched off stored-up _strains in southern Call- fornfa. He sald that the Montana tremor might also lead to - further shocks in the Western mountain States in the next few days. The view that the Montana and California quakes were unrelated is held by William Bowie, chief of the division of geodesy of the Coast and Geodetic Survey, at Washington. “The earthquake at Santa Barbara is-the same old story, an ocean leak- age,” said Prof. T. J. See of the Mare Island Observatory, at San Francisco. He expressed the belief that the disturbances in Montana had no con- nection with those in Santa Barbara, and suggested that possibly a recent hot wave in southern California had something to do with the quake there. Dr. G. S. Townley of Stanford Uni- versity said that experts had discov- ered earth strain three years ago in the Santa Barbara area and had pre- dicted quakes. These strains, they believed, had been gathering since the San Francisco quake of 1906. 25 Quakes in 1925. There has been unwonted seismic activity in North America this year, about 25 quakes at various poinf from Alaska to Mexico having been recorded since January 1 at Fordham iversity, N. Y. The Rev. J. S. 0’Conor, director of the selsmograph, attributed them all to the same gen- eral unknown cause. “A protracted period of seismic calm is always followed by a period of activity,” he saild. “The first quake relieves the strain where it occurs, but increases the strain elsewhere, and the process continues until the surface of the earth adjusts itself to all the subterranean changes Whlc)"! took place during the period of calm. Eastern seismographs recorded the Montana disturbances as more violent than the Santa Bargara quakes. “This has nothing to do with the comparative loss of life and property, said Prof. O'Conor. *Santa Barbara s close to the epicenter of the sec- cnd disturbance, while the epicenter of the Montana shocks occurred in a sparsely settled area.” MANY FAULTS UNDER CITY. Experts Speculating on Which Caused Santa Barbara Disaster. LOS ANGELES, June 30 (@).— Which of several faults known to exist in the region of Santa Barbara caused the destructive earthquake there yesterday was the subject of speculation today among selsmolo- gists of southern California. “The mountain range paralleling the coast and lying back of Santa Barbara is rising,” said Ralph Arnold, chairman of the southern California chapter of the Seismological Society of America. “From just what cause we do not know, but we know it is a growing range. In the course of great lapses of time, as the ranges rise, the strata breaks and great fractures or faults occur. Some ex- tend many miles, 100 or more. Re- adjustment of the earth’s surface oc- curs along these faults or along new faults. The movements may be up and down or sidewise along the fault. The movements extend from a few inches to many feet, possibly 15 or 20 feet. Several Faults Near City. There is a great fault paraliel to the coast and between Santa Barbara and the range; it is believed there is another large fault in the deep basin in the Santa Barbara channel be- tween the mainland and Santa Cruz Island, parallel to the coast. Be- tween these two and between the coast and back fault are two or three smaller faults running in the same general direction and toward or through Santa Barbara. Investiga- tion may disclose that the disturbance occurred along any of them or even a new fault might have been formed.” ASKS CLOSER STUDY. Says Insurance Firms Should Aid Work.

By the Assoctated Press. SANTA BARBARA, Callf., June 30.— From a flimsy shack, 8 by 14 feet, “furnished” with five small. empty packing cases and a make-belleve table of discarded boards, to which an Associated Press wire had been hasti- 1y hooked, the first direct news of Santa Barbara's disaster went out to the world shortly after noon yester- ay. This emergency headquarters, man- ned by staff writers and telegraph operators, flled a steady stream of news on the seaside temblor through the day and into the night, checking and re-checking lists of dead and in- jured, estimating and re-estimating from the best available data the ma- terfal loss to the community. From here, the staff men ranged the stricken area from the Arlington Hotel to the water front in never-end- ing expeditions to get the facts to the outside world. Cloudburst Blocks California Roads With Tons of Debris By the Assoclated Press. BAKERSFIELD, Calif., June 30. —A cloudburst on Tejon Pass, 44 miles south of here, on Ridge Route, yesterday delayed all traffic nearly three hours. Tons of debris were washed over the mountain highway, and a crew of 15 men with trucks and scrapers Was necessary to open up a one- ‘way passage. Camp resorts in the mountain pass were injured by the debris that poured down the mountain- sides. No lives were lost. insurance, which is important to persons located in earthquake zones. Dwelling on the possibility of pre- dicting earthquakes, he pointed out today that the Santa Barbara tremors were foretold some time ago by Prof. A. C. Lawson of the University of California. Referring to the necessity for sta- tioning volcanic _ observatories at strategical spots, Prof. Jaggar said Would Cover Country. “The Hawaifan Volcanic Research Assoctation should have a large en- dowment for employing more men to investigate earthquake hazards.

The obstacle of lack of light, due to the collapse of the electric power- house, was surmounted by backing an automobile up to the *“door” of the Associated Press “‘bureau” and string- ing a wire with a tiny bulb attached from . the machine’s battery to the operating table. Across_the street the city firemen had established a lunch counter, and between cups of steaming black coffee the begrimed staff men of the Asso- clated Press “pounded” out the story of Santa Barbara's disaster and her heroic plans for recuperation.

The local telephone system is para- lyzed temporarily, but the company is ready either to reopen today in its old quarters, if the building in- spector passes its premises, or set up emergency switchboards and operate from temporary headquarters. Mr. Powley pointed out that all the known facts of the earthquake and subsequent developments were being relayed faithfully to the outside by press wires and that friends and rela- tives of Santa Barbara residents scat- tered over the country might rest as- sured the whole story of the disaster was being told.

By the Aseociated Press. LOS ANGELES, June 30.—A graphic account of the terror that overtook occupants of buildings in the downtown district of Santa Bar- bara in the earthquake yesterday was brought here today by W. R. Scott, Los Angeles, who had a narrow es- cape from death in the California Hotel. Awakened by the first shock, he said, he saw the walls of his room shaking. ““They swayed sickeningly,” he con- tinued. “I leaped out of bed and raced downstairs, clad only in my pajamas. In the lobby I overtook a man struggling toward the door with a small child. As they reached it, the bullding gave way. Debris and wreck- age piled upon them. I dived through a window into the street. “When I looked back the hotel was & gaunt ruin, its outer walf fallen into the street. And standing on a heap of wreckage on the third floor, I saw a fat man screaming at the top of his voice for a taxicab. “Later I found most of the guests huddled in scanty attire in a vacant lot nearby. They had fled the build- ing as soon as the shocks began.” Still pajama-clad, Scott met an au- tomobilist bound for Hollywood. The man invited him to come along, and together they fled the city without ad- ditional garments. Children on Outing.

BOZEMAN, Mont., June 30.—South- western Montana continued to keep its earthquake eye open today with the receipt of news late last night that shocks still were being felt near the scene of the disturbances of Saturday night and Sunday. The Gallatin River Valley stirred restlessly all day yesterday, and dis- tinct shocks were felt here at 10:30 and 11:35 p.m. last night. People were driven from their beds, and many spent the rematnder of the night out of doors. Dozens of shocks have been felt be- tween Bozeman and Three Forks, one of the three towns which suffered most, since Saturday night. A shock at 3:30 o'clock Sunday aft- ernoon toppled over the weakened walls of a school building at Man- hattan, which was partly wrecked Sat- urday night.
