A Volcano Becomes Active.

Washington, April 21.-The first
volcanic eruption of great magnitude
that has occurred in the Philippines
since the American occupation, is re-
ported to the Navy Department by
Colonel Walter Howe, Forty-Seventh
Infantry, from the headquarters of
that regiment, under date of Legasp4,
March 18th. last.
Il have the honor to report the
eruption of the volcano Mayor IS
miles from Legaspi) commencing on
March LIST in the afternoon about
2:3O. At this time, with the naked
eye. large stones could be seen throw
ing out.
THE eruption fluctuated from time
to time, but gradually grew worse
until large streams of red hot lava
could be seen at night flowing down
the mountain, one of which apparent
~ has reached the sea about six miles,
from here. For one day and night tie
eruption was accompanied by a rum
bling noise, at times increasing to a
roar which was very terrifying; all
the houses at Legaspi shook, windows
and doors rafting. On the morning
of March 3rd, vibration and noise was
very trying-there was no wind ami
the clouds of smoke could be. seen
reaching far into the heavens, per-
haps five miles or more above the top
of the volcano. This spread out aud
covered the town. the sun became OBJ
scured and a thin cloud of ashes fell
constantly. 1t cleared in the after
noon sufficiently to show about half
the crater at sunset: but the rumblng
and roaring with the flow of lava con
tlnued all night. This morning
March 4th) the eruption seems to be.
practically over, although smoke OBJ
scures the mountain. and steam is still
rising from the hot lava"
