The American party was in imminent
danger.
In the meantime the IndefatigabIe had
arrived off st. Pierre, but left the shore,
heading for the sea, blowing her syren.
At that time a huge stream of molten
matter was pouring into the sea rails
ing columns of steam and the whole sea
was hideous, having turned yellow
green color, while what was apparently
smok ewas rushing from the mountain.
The decorations were continuous and
were accompanied by fearful storm OF
lightning, thunder and rain. The flashes
were of terrific violence, and during the
storm new craters opened in Mont Pelee.
Fortunately the wind kept the clouds
of smoke and gas from enveloping the
American and British warships or the
working party. The coolness and cour-
age of the American sailors were most
noteworthy.
The body of Mr.. Prentiss is now here.
There will be a funeral service on board
the United States cruiser Cincinnati to-
morrow, the 10th. The burial will take
place ashore. There will be no special
ceremony.
The volcanic mountain Is apparently in
great activity and the escape of the war
ships. especially of the shore party, was
