There was much regret expressed
that tho commission on the st. Louis

Pelee. Consul Ayme acted as inter
iretor at the interview. which LASTED
three hours Admiral Servan was deeply
interested in what Professor Hill had to
say, as he has personal theories concern
ing the recent eruptions. The Admiral
furnished Professor Hill many observa-
tons made by the French naval officers
under him. and highly complimented
Professor Hill and the National Geo.
graphical Society upon their explora-
tons
The admiral accepted Professor Hills
present iheoretic attitude on the subject
OF the eruption and praised his caution in
not arriving at an hypothesis until he has
studied the data he has collected. Pro-
lessor Hill told the Admiral that his
study OF data had been finished on the
spot He said Mount Pclee might erupt
for year more. but that the area of
devastation would remain unchanged.
As all tie people had fied from the vicin-
lily OF the volcano. no great loss of life
would occur. Professor Hill said Fort
de France was perfectly safe
Admiral Servan reports that one of the
submarine cables was broken May 3 at
an unknown distance north OF Martin

FIRST eruption of ashes The second cable
was broken May 5. ten miles west Of

II was found to be tangled and twisted.
The night OF May 5 there occurred the
eruption of mud, which overwhelmed the
Gucrin factory. Admiral Servan consid-
ers that these facts indicate the posi-
bility OF submarine assures. which adj
mitied sea water TO the central incan-
descent mass. Professor Hill admitted
the possibility of this theory. but said
the eruptions on the British island of
St Vincent still remained a problem.
