British Railway Shareholders Become
Uneasy.

NE WYoRK. Sept. 5.-Shareholders
In the English railways have been
frightened by an article by an Ameri-
can, just published in the Times,
throwing doubt on the solyency of the
railway systems Of this country, says
a Tribune dispatch from London. A
large number of selling orders were
received on the stock exchange. The
British railway shareholder has to
face an ugly prospect. and he is by
20 means free from responsibility for
the situation in which he became in
volved. The charge Of overcapitaliza-
tion which has been so frequently
brought against the British railway
committees certainly is not exagger-
ated. but has a considerable founda-
ton Of truth.
The shareholder is always on the
side Of liberal division Of profits
when improvements are required, not
to obtain an increase Of trade, but
merely to maintain the existing posi-

Of a more terrible death,
Details have been received during
the last two days that the eruption Of
Mont Pelee Of August 50 was far more
violent than any Of the earlier explo-
sions. AS the eruptions continue the
mouth of Mont Pelee grows in size.
1t is now OF enormous proportions.
Morne Lacroix. one Of the peaks that
reared skyward from the south side
OF Pelee. has fallen bodily into the
crater and has been completely swal-
lowed. There seems to be q side pres
sure in the crater and the burning
chasm widens perceptibly every day.
Clouds no longer hang about the
crest OF Mont Pelee. The terrific heat
seems to drive everything away. The
column Of flame and smoke rears di-
reetly into the heavens. so that its
top Is lost to sight. In the darkness
OF the night it has the appearance Of
q stream OF molten iron. standing
fixed between heaven and earth. From
Morne Capot the relief troops were
compelled to make quick retreat.
although they succeeded in taking out
few wounded. The entire country
nearly to Fort de France is buried
under deep cover OF ashes. This
has made Ii almost impossible to find
the bodies Of those who have perIshed
while fleeing to the seacoast.

who succeeded in escaping from Morne
Rouge, after the explosion, found ref

with u others in her house when Pc
lee gave it's first warning OF the dis
aster which it was about to pour up
on the village. She said the first ex-
plosion destroyed many houses. She
was hurled with great force against
the wall OF the room in which she was
sitting. On recovering from the shock
she ran outside and there saw three
separate tongues Of fire sweeping
down from the mouth Of the volcano.
The earth shook with so great violence
that she could not retain her feet.
She was blinded by the glare Of the
flames. The heat was so terrific that
her flesh was blistered. She awaited
the death which she believed to be
inevitable. Fortunately the fire swept
a little TO one side of her and she was
saved.
At Grand Anz the tide swept 800
feet in shore. destroying many houses
and drowning scores of inhabitants.
