The Ceremonies Notable for Bringing To-
ge,her French and American Sailors and
Soldiers and cementlng the Friendship
Which Was Begun at Trying Epoch ia

Washington, d. c., (Special) Amid
the enthusiastic demonstrations of
great concourse of people the superb
bronze statue of Gen Count de Rocham-
beau, who brought the forces of France
from across the sea at the hour of great
est peril in the American Revolution, was
unveiled here. Seldom has an event pre-
sented SO many brilliant features of mill
tary pageantry, and at the same time
given occasion for the manifestation OF
the strong bonds of friendship existing
between the French Republic and the
United States For the first time in its
history the national capital witnessed the
sight of rank on rank of French seamen
swinging through Pennsylvania avenue
and mingling their cheers with those OF
the American bluejackets and soldiers,
while at the same time the French tri-
color was entwined with the Stars and
Stripes and the sound of the "Marsel-
laise' was heard along with the Star
Spangled Banner"
The ceremony of unyeiling occurred at
The southwest corner of Lafayette Square
almost directly opposite the White House,
where the massive figure of the French
general has been erected. Surrounding
the figure were great stands to accommo-
date the many distinguished officials and
guests invited to take part in the exer-
cises. On every hand the colors of
France and America were blended. On
one stand were gathered representatives
Of every branch of the government, in
cluding the President OF the United
States and members of his cabinet, the
Chief Justice and associate justices of the
United States Supreme Court, the Lieu
tenant General of the Army and the Ad
miral of the Navy, Senators and Repre-
sentatives.
Not less distinguished was the repre-
sentation of France, designated by Presi-
dent Loubet and including General Bru-
gere. the highest field officer in the
French Army; Vice Admiral Fournier,
inspector general of the French Navy;
the venerable General Count Chalendar,
the descendants of Rochambeau and La
fayette, and others, distinguished in
French military, official, literary and ar
tstic life. With them were the French
Ambassador M. Cambon, and the entire
staff of the French Embassy, all in bril-
liant diplomatic uniform, while the dip
lomatic corps was represented by the
German Russian, Italian and Mexican
Ambassadors and the ministers from
many foreign countries. President Roose-
welt delivered the address of welcome.

er many poor people of lie Plecheur who
had ventured back after deserving their
homes. He reports as follows:
Zone Of Catastrophe.
The zone of the catastrophe in Mar
Unique forms an elongated oval, con-
tanning on land, about eight square miles
of destruction, This oval is partly over
the sea. The land part is bounded by
lines running from lie Precheur to the
peak of Mont Pelee, thence curving
around to Carbel There were three well
marked zones:
First a center of annhilation, in which
all life, vegetable and animal, was ut
terly destroyed the greater northern
part of ST. Pierre was in this zone,
Second, a zone of singeing, bistering
fame, which also was fatal to all life,
killing all men and animals, burning the
leaves on the trees and scorching but
not utterly destroying the trees them
selves.
Third, large, outer, non-destructive
zone of ashes, wherein some vegetation
was injured.
The focus of annhilation was the new
crater midway between the sea and the
peak of Mont Pelee, where now exists a
new area Of active vulcanism, with hun
dreds of fumaroles or miniature volca-
noes. A new crater is now vomiting
black, hot mud, which is falling into the
sea. Both craters, the old and new, are
active. Mushroom-shaped steam explo-
sions constantly ascend from the old
crater, while heavy ash-laden clouds float
horizontally from the new crater. The
old elects steam, smoke, mud, pumice
and lapilli, but no molten lava.
This is the first positive scientific state
ment based on observed facts. Professor
Hill has now started on horseback for the
volcano. He will study the whole af-
fected area and will try to get to both
craters. He will surely visit MoriM
Rouge and the slope Of Mont Pelee. The
undertaking is very hazardous, as ex-
plosions may occur at any moment, as
one did May 20. Professor Hill ltows
the risk he takes, but says the only way
to discover exactly what has happened is
to 30 to the crater itself or as near it as
possible
