Earthquakes are caused by tectonic activity of the earth. In otherwords, the earth caused the great kanto earthquake :P (: The Philippine plate and the Honshu Plate rubbing together caused the tremors in the earth and the earthquake :)
The largest earthquake fault is San Andreas fault.

The Kanto earthquake of September 1923 in Japan is one of the most destructive earthquakes in the world, and over 100,000 people were sacrificed in the disaster. The source of the 1923 Kanto earthquake are two different plates which are the Philippine Sea plate and Honshu plate.
The 1920 Haiyuan earthquake, also known as the 1920 Gansu earthquake, occurred on the Haiyuan Fault. This fault is located in the Gansu province of China and is a major active fault in the region.
If the fault is responsible for the earthquake, there will be movement (displacement) along the fault.
