Nearly 1000 of the refugees from the
vicinity of the village Of LIE Precheur,
a suburban village, were rescued by the
French cruiser Suchet and the cable
repair ship Pouyer-Quartier and were
brought here.
AS result Of his inspection, the
commander OF the Suchet reports that
crevices and valleys are constantly
forming in the northern portion OF the
island, where the land is in state OF
perpetual change. Fortunately. that
part of the country was evacuated IN
good time by the inhabitants, who fed
to Fort de France
Lava continues to stream down the
mountain side, accompanied by ter
rife thunder and lightning.
The stories of the survivors added TO
the awful details of the particularly
narrowing account Of the loss OF the
British steamer Roraima.
c. c. Evans of Montreal and Jonn
G. Morris OF New York, who are now
at the military hospital OF Fort de
France. say the vessel arrived at 6. AS
eight bells was struck a frightful ex-
plosion was heard up the mountain.
A cloud of fire, topping and roaring,
swept with lightning speed down the
mountain side and over the town anu
bay. The Roraima was nearly sunk
and caught fire at once. The steamer
Roraima had reached st. Pierre that
day with ten passengers. among whom
were Mrs. Stokes and her three child
rem. and Mrs. H. j. Ince. They say
they were watching the rain of ashes.

"At no time were any earthquakes,
but big stones were rained down, and
fire fell like rain for long time"
In a separate part of the hospital
were found several persons saved from
Corbet village, four miles from st.
Pierre.
The village of Urine, south OF st,
Pierre. was almost entirely burned and
almost all the inhabitants were killed

intense heat. Curiously enough, the
features Of the dead were generally
calm and reposeful. although in some
cases terrible fright and agony were
depicted. Grim piles Of bodies were
stacked everywhere, showing that
death had stricken them while the
crowds were vainly seeking escape
from the fiery deluge. On one spot
a group of nine children were found
locked In each others arms.
The vaults of the Bank Of Martin
iaue, at the head of what had been the
Rue de Hospital. were found intact.
They contained 100000 francs ($400.-
0OO) in specie and other securities,
which were sent here for safe-keeping.
The vaults of the government treas
ury are now being searched in the

principal merchants Of the city may be
saved.

could scarcely distinguish the sites Of
the large buildings that had been des-
troyed under the rain Of fire, lava. mud
and ashes.
The still smoking volcano lowered
above the ash-covered hills. The ruins
were burning In many places and
frightful odors Of burned flesh filled
the air.
With great difficulty landing was
affected. Not one house was left In
tact. Viscid heaps OF mud, OF brighter
ashes, or piles Of volcanic stones were
seen on every side. Here and there
amid the ruins were heaps of corpses,
almost all the faces were downward,
as II the unhappy victims had rushed
into the streets when the first shock
of the catastrophe aroused them. only
to meet sudden and awful death that
smote them to the earth as they ran.
So many piles Of corpses were to be
seen that is is difficult to describe any
in particular detail. In one corner

blasted by the fire and sulphurous
fumes from the angry crater Of Mont

a chartered steamer Saturday night.
We approached the site of the once
fair tropical city soon after o'clock
in the morning.
The island with its lofty hills was
hidden behind leaden colored haze.
Enormous quantities of the wreckage
of large and small ships and houses
strewed the surface of the sea. Huge
trees and, too often, bodies with flocks
of sea gulls soaring above and hideous
sharks fighting about them. were float
ing here and there. From behind the

children were mingled in one awful
mass, arms and legs protruding as the
hapless beings fell in the last strug-
giles of death. From under one large
stone the arm of white woman pro-
truded. Most notable was the utter
silence and the awful, overpowering
stencil from the thousands of dead.
The fiery stream which so completely
destroyed st. Pierre must have been
composed of poisonous gases. which IN
stantly suffocated every one who In
hailed them, and of other gases burn
ing furiously, for nearly all the VIC
tins had their hands covering their
mouths or were in some other attitude
showing that they had sought reller
from suffocation. All the bodies were
carhonized or roasted.
Through the middle of the old Place
Berlin ran a tiny stream, the remains

of the River Gayave. Great trees,
with roots upward and scorched by
fire, were strewn in every direction.
Huge blocks and still hot stones were
scattered about.
The completeness of the catastrophe
is evident when it is stated that, so
far as known at the present time, no
one save handful of survivors picked
up from the wrecked vessels in the
harbor by the French cruiser Suchet,
escaped. Even they are unable to
tell what actually happened, SO crazed
are they from the experiences they
passed through. 1t is certain. however,

AS the steamer felt its way down
the west coast of the island we could
see that the whole north end of the
island was covered with a silver gray
coating of ashes resembling snow. Flu
rious blasts of fire, ashes and mud
swept over the steamer, but finally ST.
Pierre was reached. or rather the spot
where st. Pierre stood before that aw-
full three minutes.
For two miles along the water front
and for a half mile back from shore
to the foothills at the base of the vol
cano stretched the heaps of smoking
ruins. Streets there were none. One

At LIE Precheur, five miles north OF
st. Pierre, men and women frantic
to get away begged for passage on
the little steamer. We had room for
none, but managed to pick up twenty
eight half dead men, women and child
rem, who were so badly burned that
they had to be lifted over the steamers
side. OF the twenty-eight, sixteen died
on the boat before we reached Fort
de France. Only three or four OF the
others are likely to live.
The condition of these unfortunates
is no worse than thousands of refugees
in the hills about LIE Precheur. Hun
dreds of them will die before relief
can reach them. Thousands need med
ical care, food, clothing, and above all,
water.
