VILLAGES ARE ALARMED
RED HOT STONES AND LAVA POUR
FROM VESuVluES

Naples, Aug. 27-The people OF
Naples and the environs witnessed "a
remarkable spectacle at noon yester-
day. One Thousand feet below the
central cone Of Vesuvius the vo'cano
opened like huge mouth, out OF
which belched hery stream, which
ran down the side OF the mountain,
and at first seemed to menace the ob
Servatory. Thebuilding, however, is
protected in the direction OF the
stream by a mound Of lava 200 feet
| high which was thrownout during the
eruptionS OF 1895 and 1900. The erup.
ton occurred without any warning
whatever. There was no earthquake,
| detOnation or rain OF ashes, nothing
but clear stream of lava and red
| hot stones, which were thrown to a
height OF 700 feet, producing an ex-
tremely beautiful effect seen from
Naples. The stream OF lava, which Is
| fifteen feet broad, at ii o'clock to-
night had covered a distance of 1900
feet, 1t devated later from the dl-
rection of the observatory, which is
no longer menanced.
The only danger is for the new cleo
trio tramway up the volcano, which,
however, has thus far not been touch
ed The eruption already seems TO
be decreasing, and it is hoped that no
damage will result from it.
The spectators far enough away not
TO be frightened stood entranced at
the spectacle, but those nearer to the
Volcano were seized by panic when
tile eruption began and rushed down
from the sides of the mountain and
from the adjacent country to the
villages of Portici and Resina, which
are built over the ruins of Hercula.
neum.
The alarm in these villages was
somewhat quoted by the mayor affix-
ing notices declaring that there was
no danger and exhorting the people
TO remain calm.
The chief or police Of Naples has
gone personally to make a tour Of the
villages around Vesuvius In order to
reaSsure the peasants and superin-
END any measures OF protec lon which
may be deemed necessary. The SUI
perstitious lower classes are agitating
for the expulsion of Professor Krull
IF Munich, who predicted the erup-
ton, declaring that he has the "eyil

assassination OF the American
vice consul at Beirut Syria, at
tracted much attention here, but
no information has been received in
| official or other quarters. The last
Beirut report received at the foreign
Office was da ed July7.
AS Beirut heretofore has been con.
sidered quite outside the range Of
Turkish disorders the French officials
say the gravity of the situation de-
ponds on whether the shooting was
done by a Turkish soldier similar to
the assassination OF the Russian consul
at Monastir, which, the officials add,
would warrant demand on Turkey
similar to that made by Russia.
1t is officially stated that an Amerio
can squadron should 60 to Turkish
waters. The action of the Unised
States will not be regarded by France
or the other European powers as hay
ing any political Significance in con-
nection with the near eastern ques-
ton.
A leading official likened the pres
ence Of an American squadron in
Turkish waters to the demonstrations
made by the British and German
warships in the Venezuelan waters,
the purpose in each case being TO
command respect and enforce the
collection OF demands not having any
connection with the general political
conditions.
The latest official advices received
here show that the Russian squadron,
which was at India, of the east
coast of Turkey, was withdrawn to
SebaStpol, where it was waiting for
orders. Italy has one warship, Aus
tria me and France one in Turkish
waters, but in each case large squad.
rons are held in reserve for action
If the situation shall become acute.
The increasing gravity Of the con-
ditions in Turkey is further shown
by an official report just received
from Pbilippolis, giving details OF
the revolutionary plot to blow up
the Oriental express. '. '"'. q
One Of the plOtters had been desig-
mated to sacrifice his life by boardir g
tn train and throwing the bombs.
This pot probably was connected
with the dynamiting Of the Omnibus
train at Knleliburgas, but the Phi'it-
pills report establishes the fact that
the origina' plan was aimed against
the leading trans European express
for the purpose OF impreSSing the
world with the magnitude of the dis
order.
The reports received here from the
French consulS at Salonica and Nor
aStir are still m st reasSrring. They
say they have no fear or their lives,
unless the Turkish soldiers become
more lawless. The reports add that
forty nine battalions have been with
drawn from Albania and concen-
trated around Salonica, as the Allan
ian disorders have been crushed
The most remarkable feature of the
reports diScloSes the fact that he Tur-
kish force, which totalled 5O,C men,
when the troops entered Albania six
months ago has been reduced to 35, 600
men,. Few Of the soldiers died Of di-
cease. The loss was chiefly in men
killed while crushing the Albanian up
