The recent reports of scientists who

great disaster of MAY 8. 1902, present
some very interesting facts i'll regard
to the disaster in which nearly 80. OOO
persons lost their lives.
Mr.. George Kennan and Others have
presented the subject with all the
ability of experienced correspondents,
and DR.. Angelo Heilprin has told ms
observations in IA recently punished
book which suggests u theory of the
disaster that appears to be eminently
reasonable.
1t appears that new crater was
formed on the side of the mountain
nearest to st. Pierre. and ON the
morning of the disaster the internal
forces of the mountain produced an
explosion which blew out the floor OF
the crater and threw it. together with

OUR POSITION.

Rec mt events in Venezuela have
made it more evident than before
that the relations of this country to
the republics of South America. and
to the nations of Europe in connec
tion Herewith. will continue to be
an important part of our foreign pol
icy for many years to come.
If it were simple matter of assert
ing our rights, according to what we
believe to be reasonable. the affair
would not be so difficult. But unfor
tunately we have to contend on one
side with the prejudices or ignorance
of the South Americans and on the
other with the prejudice and willful
blindness of the EUROPEANS.
1t is admitted by all who discuss
the mater that the Monroe doctrine
is not only an essential part of the
but it is also principle of universal
acceptance by the people. Whatever
party is in power the United States
will stand by the Monroe doctrine.
and practically the entire people will
go to any length in war or in peace to
secure the observance of the princi-
pies embodied in it.
The United States will not allow
European nations to consider this
hemisphere as an open field for colon
ization. it will not permit them to
extend their systems of government
here. and it will not permit them to
oppress American republics without
reason and justice.
That this frank avowal of our de-
termination is dangerous one can
not be denied. 1t is provocation to
trouble makers. and it will continue
to serve as text for magazine writ
ers and others, who will point out
that it is not part of international
law and the United States is un-
warranted in making such declara
ton.
that has been assumed by the United
States. and the frank avowal of it
tonds toward peace rather than to-
ward war. 1t is better that foreign
nations know our position than that
they should be- ignorant of it. and
certainly no European power need get
into trouble through lack of knowl-
edge of the subject.
And the recent events in in Nenez-
uela have shown that while there is
constant danger of combinations in
this matter. some of the powers of
Europe under present conditions has
any desire to seek a quarrel with the
United States. Before beginning the
movement against Venezuela. Great
Britain and Germany were both very
careful to inform the government at
Washington that they had no inten-
tion of seizing Venezuelan territory
or establishing a permanent occpua-
tion there
American friendship is too valuable
and American hostility is too danger
Gus to warrant trial of the matter.
The European powers singly Or to-
gether might establish territorial
seizure in South America by force.
but there is nothing in South Amer
lea to make it worth while for them
to do so i'll the face of the opposition
of the United States. Colorado
