destruction in the provinces OF Anto-
fagasta, AtaCama and Coquifnbo. The
movement OF the ocean is described as
phenomenal. 1t gave evidence OF a
terrible disturbance in the bed OF the
Pacific itself. There must have been
such tearing at the bottom OF the
sea that immense quantities OF water
were sucked through. causing ire
mendous recession of the waters along
the Chilean coast.
Several times the ocean swept out

great wave flooding the seaports

the waterfront

the force OF the waters, slipped their
cables and proceeded out to the open

The meteorological institute says
that the earth shock comedies with
the passage OF a sun spot over the
