129. October 50. 



The quantities M- C for the "Discovery" and Perth records, and the dift'erence between M for each of 

 these two stations and that for Christchtirch, each point to an origin in the southern extension of the 

 New Zealand axis, or 150° E. Long, and 50° S. Lat. The time of origin would bo about 14h. 57ni. Large 

 waves would be expected to reach England, 162° distant, at 16.27, from which it may )ie inferred that the 

 entries for Shide and Bidston refer to this phase of motion. 



It may be noted that there are no records from stations in Germany and Russia. We therefore have 

 here another illustration of antipodean convergence. 



130. N'uwmher 1. 



The entries for Christchurch suggest an origin at a distance of 15° to the S.W. of New Zealand. With 

 a time of origin at 17.57, the anticipated arrival of P] at Strassburg, 155° distant, would be 18h. 17m. 



131. Nmemher 10. 



The values M -C for the first two stations suggest an origin like that for 129 and 130. The time at 

 this origin would be 17h. 17m., from which it would be anticipated that the times of arrival in England 

 would for Ps be 18.47, at Victoria, B.C., 18.37, at Bombay 18.11, and at Manila 18,2, which are not 

 widely different from what was observed.
