vtSUVlUS AGAIN ACTIVE.
Government Will Have Inhabitants Who Could
Be ENDANGERED Removed.


Paris, May l5.-A dispatch has just
been received here that Mount Vesu>ius
is bursting forth in the worst eruption
that has been known in the last hundred
years, and grave fears are expressed that
the surrounding country will have to be
abandoned.
For the week past there has been an
unusual cloud Of smoke hanging over its
brow, and the rumblings have been more
heavy in volume than at any time for
years.
Last night the volcano began to throw
clouds OF smoke in great volumes, and a
rain of hot cinders has been shot forth
at intervals for the last fifteen hours.
Lava is now flowing from the crater on
the Pompeii side, and there is every in
dication that violent eruption is i'm
minent.
Rome, May l5.-Advices have been
received here which cause much anxiety
regarding Vesuvius. The government
will Immediately take steps to have all
inha bitants who would possibly be en-.
dangered by great eruption, removed
from the vicinity of the volcano. In view
of the seismic disturbances which have
taken place during the past week, it is
feared that an eruption rivalling that
which buried Pompeii and Herculaneum,
may take place at any time.

FlNL ANDERS FOR ALASKA.
New York Banking House Has Representatives
Looking Up Cook Inlet Country.

Seattle, May l6.-The New York bank
ing house OF Hornberg & Co. has taken
steps looking to the founding of Finnish
colony in Alaska. j. Churchill, repre-
sentative of the company, it is reported
by passengers on the steamer Bertha, is
now in the Cook inlet country looking
upa suitable site for the proposed settle
ment.
1t is said that many families in Fin
land are anxious to immigrate to Alaska,
providing there is any chance of their
being able to make living. Hornberg
X Co. intend to start small colony at
first and if it prospers plans will be laid
to take a largeu nmbef of people into
the district.
1t is the intention TO start the colony
an kachemak bay, Cook inlet. 1t is said
that there are thouands of acres of table
land along the bay which can be devel-
oped into an excellent agricultural and
stock raising country. Horses and cattle
can live through the winter without food
other than what they can find for them
selves, and vegetables and certain grains
are said to thrive. The fishing INDUSTRY
will also be one of the principal re-
sources. on which the colonist will depend.

Kingston, Island of St. Vincent, May
l6.-A correspondent OF the Associated
Press has just returned here from visit
on horseback to the devasted district of
this island, during which he travelled 80
miles and penetrated to within five miles
of the Soufriere crater.
The ash.covered area of st. Vincent
exceeds that of Martinique, which the
correspondent has also explored The
most conservative estimate OF the death
rate here now places the number at l, 100.
About 100 have already been inferred.
The entire northern part OF the island
is covered with ashes to an average
depth of IS inches, varying from thin
layer at Kingston to two feet or mere at
Georgetown. The crops are ruined
nothing green can be seen. The streets
of Georgetown are numbered with heaps
OF ashes resembling snow drifts and
ashes rest so heavily on the roofs that in
several cases they have caused them to
fall in. There soon will be s, 200 persons
in need of assistance from the govern.
ment, which is already doing everything
possible to relieve the sufferers.
The British cruiser Indefatigable
brought 26 tons of supplies here and
returned to the island of Trinidad for
more.
The governor OF the Windward Islands,
Sir Robert Llewellyn, is here, supervis.
ing the work OF the authorities.
Greater Destitutiok on 81. viscent.
While the outbreak OF the volcano on
the Island of Martinique killed more
people outright, more territory has been
ruined in St. Vincent, hence there is
greater restitution here.
The injured persons we're horribly
burned by the hot grit which was driven
along with tremendous velocity. Twenty
six persons who sought refuge in a room
ten feet by twelve we're killed. One per-
son was Drained with huge stone nine
miles from the crater.
Rough cotfins are being made to re-
ceive the remains of the victims. The
hospital here is filled with dying people
Fifty injured persons are lying on the
floor of that building, as there are nc
beds for their accommodation. Two days
elapsed before there were any burials, as
the negroes refused to dig the necessary
trenches, though they were offered three
times the usual wages by the local au'
thorities.
The nurses employed are incompetent
but they are willing to learn and are
working hard. The negroes are indiffer'
ent to all that is transpiring and to what
has taken plac. They expect to receive
government rations, but there have been
Instances where they have refused tC
