SHAKEN " V EART1-fgUAI I.
The northeastern sections'' of the
United States and 1'f.astern Canada,
front the Atlantic Coast to the Heed
of the Great Lakes, were shaken by.
an earthquake' occurring in the neigh-
borhood
eigh borhood of 9.zo o'clock on Saturday
night. The tremor was ' suffcieaa;tly
severe to be alarmingly apparent from
Nova Scotia to Algoma along a line
approximately 1,soo niiles in length,
while from Washington on the South
to the mining districts of New Ontar-
io in the north the trembling. of the
earth was recorded by the movement,
of furniture and the rattling of win -
dews.
The :centre of the .disturbance has
not yet been definitely located, but
the shock was 'felt Viith the greatest.'
severity in the Province of Quebec,
and it is presumed .that it - resulted
from a `movement along the earth,
fault known to exist near the mouth.
of the Saguenay River. Other seis-
mologists hold the belief that the
great fault which starts under the wa-
ters of the Bay of Fundy was the
scene of the slipping �of the earth's
crust. These rival theories will be
checked up as the reports from other.
stations are. received and compared.
The shock,was recorded in England
on the instruments maintained at the
University of Axford, and was' suffi-
ciently severe to be recorded at the
Pacific Coast and in South America.
In spite of the wide area of the
quake, no great damage is reported to
have occurred.. In Quebec City the
vaulted roof of the Union Station was.
cracked. In Shawinigan Falls the
walls of the: Cathedral of St. '` Mark
were cracked, and the roof of the
plant of the Aluminum Company col-
lapsed over a small area. In Montre-
al the earthquake is blamed for frac-
turing the oil feed pipe of the furnace
Beneath the Basilica of St. Jaynes, re-
sulting in a fire which drove the wor-
shippers
shi s from that edifice on Sunday
morning, and caused damage estimat-
ed at $lo,000. From Three Rivers"
conies the report of the death of a'
woman from the shock of the earth-
quake; and another woman's death oc-
curring in Toronto is . reported to
have been hastened by the occurrence.
Near -panics are reported from a
great many cities and towns, but, for-
tunately, these were checked before
lives were lost. In Ottawa plaster
was shaken from the walls of the Na-
tional Gallery, a building which suf-
fered from the last earthquake of any
severity felt in Eastern Canada.
"Four times more severe than any
previously recorded here," was the
official report of the earthquake from
the Dominion Observatory at Ottawa,
At' 9.21-i7 p. m. the first preliminary"
tremors `arrived,; said the official re-
port, and the vibrations continued to
be recorded until midnight.
The earth .variations were one quar-
ter of an inch. The distance from the
epicentre. was 540 kilometres, or 335
miles, and the origin was placed some-
where at the mouth of the Saguenay
Riven
"The earthquake on Saturday even-
ngxwas by far the most severe in its
ocal application which has been re-
gistered in the history of the Donxin-
on Observatory," stated A. E. Hodg-
sone Government Seismologist, "As a
matter of fact it is the fourth largest
ver recorded here, the others being
he Frisco and Japanese quakes and
ne which occurred on Feb. 4, 1923,
omewhere in the North Pacific. Oc-
an, and from which the water wave,
travelling at a speed of no miles an
hour for 3,o00 miles, wrecked shipping
g in"
in the harbor of Hawaii and destroy-
ed seafront residences
The earthquake felt on Saturday
night was most severe for about ro
minutes, starting from 9,21, and it
probably originated somewhere near'
the mouth of the Saguenay River,
where the geologists have known for
some time that there is a serious
fault in the earth's strata. It was of
such a severe character, as recorded
here, that it would undoubtedly be L, Gardner of Maple Grove.
