KEENAN, AND HILL SAFE.
The Geoiogist Has an Interesting
Story Of the Phenomena.

Story Of the Phenomena.
Fort de France, May 3O.-Fernand
Clerc. a wealthy landed proprietor Of
Martinique, arrived yesterday and an.
nounced that Mr.. keenan, and his par
ty were safe en- a plantation at the
north end OF the island.
Professor Robert T. Hill, United
States government geologist, for
whose safety there was great anxiety,
returned yesterday completely worn
out. He said:
my attempt to examine the crater
has been futile. I succeeded, however,
in getting very close to Morne Rouge.
At z o'clock Monday night I witness
ed from a point lear the ruins Of st.
Pierre a frightful explosion from
Mount Pelee and noted the accom-
panying phenomena. While these erup-
lions continue no sane man should
attempt to ascend to the crater of the
volcano. Gigantic mushroom-shaped
columns of smoke and cinders ascend
ed into the clear, star-lit sky, and then
spread, in a vast black sheet, to the
south and directly over my head.
Through this sheet, which extended q
distance of ten miles from the crater,
vivid and awful lightning-like bolts
flashed with alarming frequency. They
followed distinct paths of ignition, but
were different from lightning in that
the bolts were horizontal and not per-
pendicular. This is indisputable evil
dence of the explosive oxydation of
gases after they left the crater. This
is a most important observation and
explains, in part, the awful catis-
trophe. This phenomenon is entire
ly new in volcanic history.
Il took many photographs but do
not hesitate to acknowledge that l was
terrified. But was not the only per-
son so frightened. Two newspaper
correspondents who were close to
Morne Rouge some hours before me
became scared, ran three miles down
the mountain and fastened into Fort
de France.
Nearly all the phenomena of these
volcanic outbreaks are new to science,
and many pf them have not yet been
explained. The volcano is still in
tensely active, and l cannot make any
predictions as to what it will do"
Mr.. Hill is authority for the asster-
ton that Pelee is now ejecting true
lava (molten rock, matter not unlike
that which covered Pompeii.
This is the first time the production
of real lava by volcanoes in this part
of the world has been noted, and the
fact may presage terrible results.
Mr.. Hill will not discuss the matter,
but other ~scrientists here agree that
the conditions now known to exist are
more threatening than those before
the destruction of st. Pierre.
