Kingstown, St. Vincent, Saturday.
Sept. 6.-The sights in the windwari
district of this island resulting from
the eruption of the Soufriere volcano
Sept. are very interesting.
The Rabacca river even now is a
streau Of fire a quarter Of mile OF
more wide. The greater part of the
Rabacca estate is wrapped in vapol
and there are mimic eruptions every.
where.
The river bed is continuously throw
ing up columns and dense clouds OF
steam, mud and pebbles.
The land has spread farther sea
ward and is changing considerably the
appearance of the district. This was
probably caused by the ejecta that
flowed down the Slopes, filling the
sea about the coast.
Fifty laborers, deceived by the ap.
parent quietude of the volcano, were
working within the fire zone We'd.
nesday, ct the extreme north of the
island, when they suddenly saw eyi.
dence of an approaching disturbance
of the mountain, but were unable to
leave the spot before electric flashes
and an outpour Of gases drove them
to their shelter, where they remained
at the base Of the mountain, through
out the terrible night, while forked
lightning darted in all directions
around them. The men miraculously
escaped unhurt and arrived at Kings.
town yesterday.
The port officer of Chateau Belair,
who saw the Soufriere from the sea
yesterday, made the following report:
THE mountain is considerably lower
than before Sept. and the appearance
of the summit has changed. A large
proportion has evidently been blown
off and the hill has a much more jag.
ged contour The neighborhood is al
tered New ridges, valleys and a
strange ravine have been cut in the
west side Of the volcano, down to what
was formerly the Carib settlement of
Haracia, where liquid matter was seen
floating during the afternoon of Sept.
3. The northwestern estates, Petit
Bordel.e and Sharpes are covered with
from 10 to 20 inches Of gritty sub.
stance. The crop of arrow root and
cocoa are ruined"
During the night of Sept. 4 there was
a terrific storm, accompanied by blind.
ing lightning and terrible peals of
thunder and a moaning sound from the
agitated crater.
