Earthquakes Like Italy's Baffle Science Learned Men Seek Way To Forecast Other Disasters By HOWARD W. BLAKESLEE (Associated Press Science Editor) NEW YORK, (AP) -The force that sets off earthquakes like Italy's disaster is identifled vaguely in scientific theories that place it all the way from gravitation coming from outer space to the earth's own depths. This "trigger," the final force that kicks the quake into action, is sought as one possible means of forecasting quakes. Gravitational forces are agreed one basis of earthquake power, But the condition that upsets the balance of rocks, of mountains or whole sections of the earth's crust so that they stand like a house of cards ready to.

be tumbled down by a comparatively slight push, has not been agreed upon. Identifying the "trigger" is one beginning for penetrating further back into the mystery. One suspected "trigger" is the microseisms which have come to light recently with the advent of supersensitive seismographs. Microseisms are tremors that barely move the recording needles. changing weight of the 1c- Their is not but companies weather changes, is suspected.

wAnother the unproven ocean trigger tides is sweep- the ing over continental shelves, which are the comparatively shallow water surrounding continents as far as 100 miles off shore. Another which might be elther trigger or the builder of the house of cards, is the possibility of tides in earth. Harlan P. Stetson, director of Perkins observatory at Delaware, Ohio, this spring advanced arguments that these earth tides actually. exist.

The barn is situated on Foster court which is off Western avenue. The cause of the fire is undetermined but according to Mr. Foster and Mr. Young they have been having trouble with children in and about the barn and think that the fire may have started from that cause. The fire department did a wonderful piece of work, under the circ*mstances.

in saving the building which although badly burned can probably be reconstructed without tearing it down. Alfred Stevens of Rome was, probably the first notice the fire and he rushed to the building to free the horse trapped in the stable. On opening the door he was greeted with a flaming wall of fire and smoke and was unable to enter the building. A hay rack was hauted to safety by Mr. Stevens who shouted to nearby people to call the Are department upon arriving at the building.

Mrs. Florence Paulette telephoned the Central fire station where box 41 was pulled in. This alarm was followed by Box 42 and was apparently pulled in by some person at the box. Flames were shooting from -all sides the building upon the arrival of the fire department and several lines of hose were quickly laid. Several minutes later the fire was under control but not until it had burned nearly all the inside including, a sleigh, team, horse and several sets of harnesses.

A Chevrolet sedan owned by Mr. Foster was pulled to safety but not until the flames had burned the top and scorched the paint on the body. Nearly every window in the car was broken by the intense heat. Six tons of hay stored in the upper story were destroyed by the fire and water. It is understood that there was a small insurance on the building.
