strange currents and swept by huge
waves, following the Japanese earth
quakes.
Fifty thousand dollars damage has
been done ships in the harbor at San
Pedro. One vessel wirelessed she had
been carried twenty miles off her
course by a strong current.
The Togo Kisen Kaisha liner Taiyo
Maru. reported endangered 900 miles
off Yokohama and her passenger
list of 500 in peril. is safe.
according to a radiogram from the
japanese government station at Tom.
ioka
"Taiyo Maru is safe" were the
three words flashed across the Pacific.
This is the first word received re-
garding the Taiyo since early Tues
day morning when the government
radio station at Cordova, Alaska. re
ported the Taiyo was sending out S
10 calls.
The strange behavior OF the sea
is principally noticeable at San Pedro.
The damage In the harbor was caused
by the swapping of hawsers. which
proved too weak to hold some of the
ships to their moorings.
Some seamen say the four tidal
waves which struck the Southern Cali
fornia coast Sunday night, follwoed
by huge surges and the ensuing heavy
seas are fore-runners Of larger tidal
wave which Is racing across the sea
