REMARKABLY IN EARTHQUAKE
ANNALS.
This great earthquake will be re-
corded IN history as remarkable IN
several particulars, The duration or
the first shock appears TO have been
greater than usual; the amplitude or
vibration as indicated by incomplete
reports at hand was above the aver
age earthquake swing. the curVing or
vortlcose movement Is described as
very pronouneed moreover, the abb
sence OF all preliminary tremors and
the intensity and suddenness OF the
main shock, II present reports be con-
firmed, will be noted as exceptional
though not unprecedented. But be-
yond all such features, the terrible
results In loss Of human life and de-
struct,on of property VIII be remem-
bered with undying emotions of sor-
row and anguish.
Long as the death list Is, vast as are
the figures that tell the tale Of ruin,
the one would be longer and the other
yet greater had the center of disturb
ance been a short distance off Shore
In such case the great sea wave,
called into being by the oscillation of
the sea floor, would have rolled In
upon the coast with devastating force.
The story OF Lisbon may have been
surpassed.
CAUSED BY "FAULpING' EARTH.
With the presentations and precau-
tons already expressed In view Of the
dearth OF accurate data, venture the
provisional and tentative opinion, that
the immediate cause Of the recent
earthquake was the faulting and slip
ping OF the crust area lying west OF the
coast range. Later shocks as second
AIRY or after effects. were to be ex-
pected--these being due to the slip
! ping OF the newly fractured crust
blocks one upon another. Thus far
there Is lack of evidence of Sec
ond shock as distinct wave of in
| dependent disturbance. The Garth
wave thus started was observed and
automatically recorded at the seismic
observatories On the opposite side OF
| the globe.
