Sinking Canyon Is
Goal of Tourists
Continued From Page 1)
ates a ranch adjoining the Rob
ertson farm, invited hordes of
tourists to cross her fields and
view the canyon from a distance
at 50 cents a car.
Many townspeople hire out as
guides. Two enterprising amateur
photographers from Buhl snapped
views of the "canyon," quickly
sold 1,000 postcards, and ordered
more.
To Farmer Robertson, however,
who stands by helplessly as na
ture dabbles with his land, there
is no commercial value. His prop
erty is closed to tourists, for fear
some may be injured by the shift
ing land. He already has watched
seven acres plunge more than 250
feet Into the earth.

Faithful Mary's heaven is to

them over to the natives.
, While these developments were
taking place, house and senate

Refugees Suffer
Terror of Quake

MANILA, Aug. 10-MVTwo Tio-
lent earth shocks brought panic,
darkness and damage throughout
Manila tonight Just as the city was
receiving the first American ref
ugees from embattled Shanghai.
The first and most devastating
quake came at 7:59 P.m.
(8:59ft a.m. EST). Broken ma
sonry and glass cascaded down
the fronts ot, buildings and Into
the streets.
Residents fled in terror from
their homes. Darkness enveloped
the city of 300,000 aa the electric
service failed for a short time,
Fires broke out in many places,
but few proved serious.
The first wave of terror wj
just beginning to subside when
the second quake shook the city
at 8:24 p.m.
The death of one person In ad
jacent Cavlte province was attrib
uted to heart failure induced by
earthquake fright.
Authorities computed the In
jured at about thirty persons.
They said the fact that many
Manila buildings were of timber
and were bolted together probably
forestalled a major catastrophe.
The shocks, worst experienced
here in forty years, centered only
1 miles from the downtown area
and were felt as far away s

Barde Case Again
Taking Spotlight
SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. 20.-P)
-Herbert Plelshhacker, San Fran
cisco banker, aired a 15-year-old
accusation against J. N. Barde of
Portland today at the closing ses
sion of the trial of a bank stock
holders' suit charging Fleishhack
er withheld "secret profits" from
them.
Lucien Slum and a group of
French stockholders In the Anglo
California National bank, of
Which Fleishhacker Is president,
had charged the banker obtained
some $250,000 for himself as re
ward for inducing his bank to ne
gotiate a 8500,000 loan to J. N.
and the late L. B. Barde of Port
land.
The loan was made to M. Barde
and sons, but the Barde Broth
ers, forming a new company
called the Barde Steel Products
company and assigning half the
stock to Fleishhacker, used It to
buy steel from the United States
shipping board after the war In
1919. The deal was described as
highly profitable, and the bank
loan was repaid promptly.
