Point Pitire, Gnadelonpp, Sept.
5.-It is generally believed that
the island of Martinique is doomed
to total destruction and fear is
expressed that when the catastro-
phe comes GaudeIoupe is to be
visited by a destructive tidal
wave. The details which have
been received during the last Two
days prove that the eruption of
Mount Pelee on August 80 was far
more violent than any of the ear
lier explosions. As the eruptions
continue, the mouth of Mont Pslee
grows IN size. 1t Is now OF enor-
nous proportions. Morne La
Croix one OF the peaks that form
erly reared skyward on the south
side of Pelees has fallen bodily into
the crater ana has been completely
swallowed up
Columns OF flame and smoke
rear directly into the heavens, so
that Mont PeIec Is lost to sight.
Ia the darkness of the night it has
the appearance Of n stream Of mol
ton iron, standing fixed between
the hes Tens and the earth. The
entire country nearly to Fort De
France is buried under deep
cover OF ashes. This made IL al
most impossible TO hnd the bodies
of those who perished while fleeing
to the sea coast.
At Grand Anse, the tide swept
800 feet ashore, destroying many
houses and drowning scores OF
the inhabitan Is. Even at Fort
De France the stoutest of hearts
have lost courage. Cole DeCour
reported to the French govern
ment that it is his opinion that
the entire islnnd of Martinique
win have to be abandoned. He
asks for assistance in transporting
the inhabitants to the other islands
of the West Indian group.

There was a much better attend

many Of the merchants being pres
ent and manifesting a lively inter-
est in the proceedings. This was
most encouraging from the fact that
but few merchants had attended

the week and special effort had
been made to get them out. Much
important business was disposed

NEW YORK. Oct. IA New York
lawyer has been compelled to pawn his
watch here to get charter for the Whip
pany and Passaic River Railroad Com
pany, says Herald dispatch from Tren-
ton, n. j. When the attorney reached the
State Department he discovered that he
had come away without the money for the
filing fees although he had brought $4,000
for the certificates. He had but n small
sum of change in his pockets and the
corporation clerk informed him that with
out the requis.ee $40 there could be no
filing OF the charter. the lawyer protest
ed that the parties interested in the com
pany were awaiting telegram from llhn
announcing the issuance of the charter in
order that meeting could be held at
once. The court attaches were obdurate,
however, and visit to the nearest pawn
shop was made. Here the necessary sum
was realized and the charter was procured.
A telegraph order for money soon arriv-
ed and the attorney redeemed his watch
The proposed railroad is to be seven miles
long and capitalized at sS75,O0O.

DANGER OF OTHER
TUMBLES IN VENICE

NEW YORK, Oct. 7-Discussing
Signor Bonfs work in connection with
the reconstruction of monuments in
Venice, dispatch to the Times from
that city by way of London says the
Church of st. Mark, the Doges palace,
the Procuratie vecchie, the zecca, and
the Churches of Santa Maria Gloriosa,
Del Frari and St. Giovannio Paolo need
prompt attention if catastrophes are to
be ayerted.
In ST. Marks there is a crack in the
great arch of the Apocalypse, and the
arch sags downward almost a foot. It
is expected that it will be necessary to
remove all the mosaics of the arch, and
that the brick wall behind them will
have to be more solidly constructed. In
the Doge's palace diagonal LESSONS are
visible, and it looks as though the brick
work were tumbling outward The cor
respondent says that this is not surpris-
ing, seeing that one of the chief inter-
nal walls was cut through in order to
MAKE room LOT an eleNdlOT lOI Lie
heavier books in the Biblioteca Marci-
ana.
In the Procuratie Vecchie there are
serious cracks, caused probably by the
whole demolition of internal walls and
the stacking of heavy goods IN the
rooms above the celonnade.
The correspondent comments on the
folly Of the civil engineering corps
which is preparing to remove the Bibli-
otoca Marciana to the Zecca. The lat
ter building is already in a rickety con-
Gition from top to bottom. The engi-
neers intend to roof in the renaissance
court yard so as to make reading
room out of it.
The correspondent says it is proba-
bic that the place will tumble in be-
fore the library can be opened.
Regarding the general subsistence of
Venetian soil, Signor Boni believes that
the land has sunk at the rate of about
31h inches a century.
