WARNED OF THEIR FATE
Letters Mailed by Victims Jus,
Before the Eruption.


Of the Ashes Which Were Filling
the Streets and Houses Week Be.
fore the Final Horror.
Paris, May 20.-Martinique mails
forwarded just prior to the disaster
arrived here Monday The newspa-
pers print number of private letters
from st. Pierre giving many details
of events Immediately preceding the
catastrophe. The most interesting Of
these is a letter from young lady,
who was among the victims, dated
May 5. After describing the aspect
Of st. Pierre before dawn, the town
being lit up with flames from the vol
caro-, everything covered with ashes
and the people greatly excited yet not
panic-stricken, she said;
My calmness astonished me. | am
awaiting the event TRANQUILITY. My
only suffering is from the dust which
penetrates everywhere, even through
closed windows and doors. We are
all calm. Mamma is not a bit anx-
ious. Edith alone is frightened. If
feath awaits us there will be a num-
erous company to leave the world.
Will il be by fire or asphyxia? 1t will
be what God wills. You will have our
last thoughts. Tell brother Robert
that we are still alive tbs will, per-
haps, be no longer true when this let
ter reaches you"
The Edith mentioned was a lady
visitor who was among the rescued.
This and other letters enclosed sam
pies of the ashes which fell over the
doomed town. The ashes are blush
grey impalpable powder, resembling
newly ground -four and slightly smell
ing of sulphur.
Another letter, written during the
afternoon of May 3, says:
THE population of the neighbor-
hood CT the mountain is flocking to
the city. Business is suspended, the
inhabitants are panic-stricken and the
firemen are sprnkling the streets and
roofs, to settle the ashes, which are
filling the air."
These and other letters seem to in
dicate that evidences of the impend-
ing disaster were numerous five days
before it occurred.
Ii is difficult to understand how II
was that a general exodus of the pop
ulation of st. Pierre did not take
place before May 8.
Still another letter says:
"St. Pierre presents an aspect un.
known to the natives. 1t is a city
sprinkled with grey snow, a winter
scene without Geld. The inhabitants
C the neighborhood are abandoning
their houses, villas and cottages and
are fiOcking to the city. It is a cur
ious pell-mel of women. children ard
farefooted peasants, big black fell
lows loaded with household goods.
The air is oppressive; your nose
burns. Are we going to die aspyxiat-
ed? What has tomorrow in store for
us? flow of lava, rain or stones OF
a cataclysm from the sea? Who can
tell? Will give you my last thought
if | must die"
A st. Pierre paper of May 3 an
nounces that an excursion arranged
for the next day to Mont Pelee mad
been postponed as the crater was in
accessible, adding that notice would
be issued when the excursion would
take place.
