The great tidal waves observed at
Marseilles on June 10, 1908. appear to
have been caused By unusually high
electrical charge OF the atmosphere
which is known to have existed during
the period Of the earthquakes which
devastated the south Of France. The
powerful attraction exerted on the
surface of the earth by this electric
charge caused earthquakes on land
