PRESIDENTS DAY.
Cleveland Expected to Draw a Large
Crowd to Administrations Soldiers

ATLANTA, Ga. Oct. 1.-THE indications
are that Presidents day at the Cotton
States and International Exposition will be
the browning event of the exposition. An
enormous crowd is expected a week from
next Wednesday, when President Cleveland
will be here.
The announcement was made this after
noon by Col. John s. Gambler. the senior
colonel of the Georgia Volunteers. that no
company of the regular National Guard
will consent to parade on Presidents day
at the exposition. Oct. %. The reason for
this is that the exposition directors have
put the parade in charge of Capt. J. f.
Burke, of the Gate City Guards, an organi-
cation which is not enlisted in the State
service. does not wear the regulation State
uniform and is not under officers commits
stoned by any State authority. The judge
acknowledgement of the State, more than a
year ago, decided that the State militia
could not legally parade with the guard. On
this account that company was not invited
to participate in the parades on the open
ing day of the exposition and on Liberty
Bell day. but, through the action OF the
exposition committee, IL has been placed in
charge of the procession to escort Presl-
dent Cleveland to the grounds on the occa-
sion of his visit here mex week. Colonel
Gambler is one Of the most prominent Cleve-
land Democrats In Georgia, but it is under
stood that this will not prevent his insist
law Of the State. The regular militia is with
Colonel Gambler and the indications are that
the Presidents escort will be confined 10 a
single company.

BERING SEA AFIRE
TWENTY SUBTERRANEAN vOLCA.
NOES IN ACTIVE OPERATION.
Weird. Nve-Inspiring Spectacle Wit
messed by the Crew Of the VEN
Cutter Commodore Perry.

SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. l.-The revenue
cutter Commodore Perry has returned from
the Northern sea, where she has been con-
fronted each night for weeks by a gigantic
line OF fire. AS Captain Smith expresses
it. "the DEVILS stokers have been stirring
up the subterranean sea of flames that is
supposed to lie beneath the bed of Boring
sea, and as a consequence fully twenty of
the forty volcanoes in the Aleutian chain
are now active. The line of stands lying
between the Boring sea and the PACIFIC
ocean belong to the United States. and on
them are probably the only active vol
canoes lying within American territory.
Much has been written of RogaslovI island,
which has been throwing up a cloud OF
steam at times for years, but it was sup
posed that. all the other peaks on this
singular line of islands were extinct
craters only. Now as far as the eye can
reach from any point in the Boring sea
adjacent or even at a distance from the
famous seal islands the rising smoke ana
steam can be seen in both directions. The
eruption is general. and so very lively that
at night the airy columns take on the re-
f%ieetions OF the fires deeR In the ss.s earth nn t 6ee
globe can such a sight be witnessed. In
the daytime only smoke or steam is visi-
bic. AS dusk comes and darkness follows,
the wonder grows. The brighter columns
show up in the cold Alaskan night first.
and as il gets darkef other vivid curls OF
smoke are to be seen at greater distances.
Sometimes when the position of the OBJ
server is advantageous a dozen or fifteen
of these modern pillars of fire are In sight.
The show of subterranean force IS the
most notev orthy ever observed on Amer
lean soil. AS proof of the mighty power
that is at work beneath the islands a neck
of land has been forced up out of the sea
between Bogalov and old Bogalov, and the
two islands are now one. 1t is queer look
ing land. 1t is one of tie passes shown on
the chart as connecting Boring sea with
the greater ocean to the southwark. The
rocks in this neck are manifestly OF vol
canic origin, black and smooth in surface
az n once melted. EtA 81

DULUTH, MINI. Oct. H.-There is no
doubt that Northwestern farmers are hold
ing back their wheat on account of the
low prices prevailing, and marketing their
coarse grain instead For several days past
the receipts of wheat In this market nave
fallen below those of last year. Farmers
who are averse 10 selling their wheat for
ruling prices and have coarse grains TO
sell. Will send the latter 10 market and
hold the wheat. for the reason that the
coarse grain commands relatively much
higher values in this market than wheat.
There Is the further reason that flax can
lot be held IN the stack as wheat can
