Places.

PARIS. Sept. 13.-Thc French scientific
expedition which was sent to the island Of
Martinique to study the situation caused
by the eruption Of Mount Pelee has drawn
up a second report in which, speaking Of
the eruption OF August 30, the commission
ers say that the disquieting eruption OF
that day renders continuous study Of the
phenomenon necessary.
There is no longer any doubt the com
missioners say, that the evacuation OF
the entire Mount Pelee region, which we
did not consider indispensable a month ago.
should now be carried out. Until the VOL
canic disturbances have ceased the South
ern limits OF the mountain ought to be
most actively watched, especially II 1t Is
demonstrated that the last eruption was
due to a new crater in the lateral fissure."
The report concludes by dwelling upon the
danger of tidal waves inundating Fort de
France.
More Smoke Out of soufrIere.
JAMESTOWN; Island of st. Vincent,
Sept. 11.-An official at Chateau Belair re-
ports that the Soufrlere's new crater,
which has been quiet hitherto, is today
throwing out black smoke.
The old crater, which in the scientists
opinion did all the work since May Z, and
which erupted Sept. 3, Is still issuing white
steam in dense clouds, which can be seen
from Kingstown over the northern noun
tains. The craters and the Wallibou and
Richmond districts could be seen yester-
day.
The volcanic matter which fell at Rich
mond and WHllibou was finer than that
which fell at Chateau Belair, although the
pidces are very near each other. The
pumice elected September 8 was more
honeycombed, closely resembling that
found In the Mediterranean "
There has been a further subsistence at
Wallibou in four different places and the
local opinion is that these subsistence
on the coast line may account for the sand

The work before the grand jury today

appear and none o: the sheriffs' deputies

AN UNAVOIDABLE CALAMITY.

If the historical estimates are TO be
accepted as correct, a million human
beings have lost their lives in earth
quakes and valcanic eruptions. The
historically familiar humiliation OF
Poinpeii, to which most minds revert
as an example of the destruction con-
nected with seismic disturbances, was
really a minor affair SO far as loss of life
is concerned compared with others with
which the general public is less fa-
miliar. Pompeii's death loss is esti-
mated at but 1000. The great Sicilian
earthquake destroyed a whole popula-
ton. More than 100000 persons We're
killed, fiifty-four cities We're whelmed
and Catania, a city larger than Mar
shalltown, with its $4,000 Inhabitants
so absolutely obliterated that of the
busy and populous town no single trace
Ten years after 100000 We're destroyed
at Jeddo in Japan. In 1755 eight min
utes of earthquake left Spanish and
Portuguese cities in ruins and killed
$4,000 of their inhabitants. Across the
straits the city of TEE in Morocco fell
upon $4,000 of it's dwellers and in Per-
STA the city of Kascham was swallowed
up with its population of 10000. In
1868 the city of Manila, p. l., was par
TALLY destroyed with appalling loss of
life in connection, and in 1868 earth
quakes in Peru and Ecuador resulted in
the death of $4,000 people.
These terrifying figures are but
partial list of the devastation and death
due to these awful visitations not to
be averted by human forethought or
withstood by human power. The thun-
derous eruption of Krakatoa was heard
