Spaces Here and There - Enormous
Pressure in the Interior-History and
Causes of Outbreaks Traced.

NEW YORK, May 17.-"volcanoes have
human race" said Prof. James Furman
Kemp. Of Columbia University, speaking
of the eruption OF Mont PeIee in Mar
Unique and La Soufriere in St. Vincent.
The steaming cones of Aetna were al
ways before the ancients, and Vesuvius
has been known for hundreds Of years It
is said by some that St. John received his
inspiration for the Book of Revelations
| from the volcanoes near the Island of
Patmos. OF the mysterious phenomena
which involve the earth's heat none has
been SO appalling in its effect as the re-
cent catastrophe at Martinique. The erup-
tion which destroyed Pompeii may have
slain more people, but the dearth Of COM
munication at the time made its effect far
less serious on the world at large.
Connected With Interior.
Volcanoes are connected with the in
terror of the earth. II we descend toward
the interior Of the earth we find that
thermometer will rise one degree for every
sixty feet in the descent At the depth
of mile the increase of temperature is
SIS degrees, and for thirty miles it would
be almost $500 degrees. The temperature
of molten lava is about ZOO degrees Fahr-
enheit. Experiments in different parts of
the earth show the increase in tempera-
ture of ons degree upon descent at diff
ferent depths as follows:

"A hole drilled In the Comstock Lode
gave forth water at the heat Of ITO de- /

which have not yet cooled.
The Early Belief.
Early biologists were greatly i'm
pressed by these facts and reached the
was a molten mass covered by a crust OF
from twenty-five to fifty miles in thick |
ness. This theory is no longer tenable J
The item Of pressure has an important in |
fuence on the fusing pofut OF rock. and !
hence on volcanic action. At one mile |
beneath the earth'si surface there is a |
pressure of 5000 pounds to the square |
inch; at twenty miles 1t is 5000 pounds,
and at fifty miles about $780, 900 pounds, |
or lis tons. AS we descend the pressure
increases rapidly, and under these cir
cumstances the fusing Of rock is impos-
sible. II the earth had the crust spoken
of, the attraction Of the sun and of the
planets would cause tides OF incandescent
which would soon shatter this
crust.
The Present Theory.
THE general theory today as held by
geologists is that the earth is solid
throughout. There are certain heated
reservoirs far beneath the surface which
give rise to volcanic eruptions. Lighter
rocks are thrown up from the compara-
tive surface. and heavy rocks only appear
from the depths when the volcano is at
its dying stage,
But what are the forces which bring
the lava and scoriae TO the surface? 1t
has long been observed that volcanic
are accompanied by earth
Iuakes. The converse does not hold true.
