According 10 a report from Rome
the Straits of Messina have shifted
materially" and the geography" OF
southern Italy has been changed by
the earthquake. AS Prof. j. I. T.
| See OF the Mare Island observatory
writes, magnificent experiments are
constantly going on In the great laD-
oratory Of nature" He contends that
there is a constant leakage OF water
through the bed of the ocean In places,
that is TO say, through the earth
crust. resulting In earthquakes and
tidal waves. In explaining his theory
Professor See says:
IF we admit on the basis Of expert
mental evidence that water can pene-
trate thin layers Of granite, the ques-
ton naturally arises: Can II also
penetrate layer OF granite 10 or 20
miles thick? II seems obvious that
II can. because for small or moderate
pressure water is nearly incompressi-
BILE and would not sensibly increase In
density as IL went down into the globe.
The fluid which passed through the
upper layer OF granite would therefore
keep on descending. under the increas-
ing fluid pressure from above, and at
length the whole layer would be sat
urated and perspiring below with a
steady leakage which would give rise
to tremendous steam power In the un.
DERIVING molten rock. Thus great
stresses due to slow accumulation of
steam would develop in the layer just
beneath the crust, and this would give
rise to earthquakes and mountain
formation
This theory that the source Of earth
quakes is the bed of the sea and that
the water leaking into and coursing
under the crust " the earth is con-
verted into steam that shakes and
rends the surface apart wherever IL
finds a vent or wherever the crust is
thin and porous is not new. although
Professor See is its most industrious
and able advocate. II is opposed 10

10 the theory that they result from
the subsistence Of the earth's crust
