ON INVESTIGATION.
Feeling Of Anxiety at St. Vincent Has
Not Abated.

Kingstown. st. Vincent, Wednesday,
June 11.-Fleet Surgeon Isaac III. Ander-
son of the British navy, and the scien-
tific commission appointed by the Royal
turbances here, arrived at kingstown and
left today for Chateau Belair, with the
intention of ascending the Soufriere vol
cano when possible.
The general feeling Of anxiety here has
not abated. There has been no big erup-
ton since May 80: but the appearance OF
the volcano is not reassuring. There are
frequent emissions of black steam.
The American scientists. Prof. Havcy
Of the American Museum of Natural His
tory, New York, and Geo. C. Curtis Of
Harvard, made another ascent of the
Soufriere from the east on Monday last.
They heard the rumbling of boiling water
in the old crater when half mile off.
waited until the fog cleared and found the
southeast crater quiescent. The old ridge
that used to run from the saddle to the
bottom of the crater remains. There is no
water in this crater. The Americans did
not venture to approach the old crater.
Prof. Hovey says that apparently the
crater of the 1872 eruption took no parI
i'm the recent outbreak, and so far as he
and Mr.. Curtis could see, no streams
of molten rock, like those which issue
from Mount Nesuvfus, have flowed only
superheated steam, old lava, ashes, etc
having been thrown out.
A lake has formed at the base of the
mountain. Its banks are volcanic matter
which fell during the eruptions. Thick
clouds of steam arise from this lake at
close intervals. The assures in other parts
of Wallibu are still smoking.
The government is now sheltering and
feeding 1000 persons. The United States
collier Leonidas mas arrived here and Is

Der of natives are now employed and
