ORIGIN OF EARTHQUAKE
CENTRE IN MOHAKA REGION NOT A MAJOR DISTURBANCE (Per United Press Association) WELLINGTON, June 15. The Dominion Observatory records indicate that the origin of the disturbance yesterday was about 200 miles from Wellington, which places the centre somewhere in the Mohaka region, but whether inland or off the coast cannot be determined until other records are studied. Although extensively felt, the earthquake was not a particularly severe one, and was by no means in the class of major disturbances.
