A DEVASTATED ISLE.

Twelve ThoIiand People Reported Killed
by ii Volcanic Eruption.
SYDNEY, n. S. W., July 17.-Rumors
have reached here from Timer that
there has been a volcanic eruption on
the island of Sanger, one of the Phillip
pine group, and that most of the inhab-
itants have been killed. A native from
the Talantz islands, who was at San
Angelim four weeks ago, brought re-
markable story about several other ma
tives who had just returned from voy-
age. They had intended to land on the
island, but were prevented by the sight
of mountains belching forth smoke and
fire. They reported that the whole
island was ON fire. The whole popula-
tion, estimated at about $4,000, seemed
to have been swept into the sea or
burned, as not living soul was to be
seen. Streams of lava We're still flowing
toward the shore, showing that the &C.
tivity of the volcano had not abated.
The steamship Catterburn brought
a similar story into port with her. Near
Sanger, her captain says, she passed
through miles of debris dissimilar from
anything he had before seen at sea "
posts and sides Of huts, mingled with
such utensils as the natives Of the Phil
ippines use in cooking. Many unrecog-
nizable objects, resembling charred hu-
man trunks, were also seen. Articles Of
head dress in the wreckage were identi-
fed by sailor who had lived in the
Philippines us belonging to the natives,
The ship was passing through the wreck
age from 10 a. n. to 1890 p. m.
