REIGN OF TERROR
EXISTS IN NAPLES
Activity of VeSuviuS Keeps Citizens
in Pane.

NAPLES, Aug. 15.-The people here
are in almost continual state of panic
over the activity of Mount Vesuvius
although the flow of lava is less today
than yesterday. The parish priest and
the guardians of the law are having
great difficulty in quieting the people,
who are convinced that they are about
to be overwhelmed by lava from the
crater. They gather in the churches,
where they cast themselves before the
altar, imploring the intercession of the
Virgin.
The earthquake shocks have served to
increase their alarm. The people rushed
into the open spaces to escape from
the debris of the houses which they
were certain would fall. Their favorite
exclamation in the crowd is Madonna
mial"
Several determined efforts have been
made by venturesome persons to get
nearer the crater than the prescribed
limits allow. One man actually sue
ceeded. when his presence was revealed
by burst of fire. He was brought
back home none too gently by guardian
Several of the guardians have had
narrow escapes from falling stones. The
spectacle presented by Vesuvius is mag
nihcent and overpowering.
