LAVA MAY EXPLODE
Island of Hawaii Fears a Terrible
Catastrophe at Any Hour-city Of
Hio in Danger-Greatest Crater in
the World Nearly Full to Overflow

Honolulu, May S.-The three mile
long crater Of Kilauea, constantly
agltated lake of liquid lava, is showing
great activity, and fears are felt that
to the air by an explosion and over
whelm a part of the island of Hawaii
and it's 25, 900 inhabitants.
The burning lava In the great crater
the largest In the world, Is steadily
rising. Should the pressure increase
there Is great danger Of a terrific
eruption.
Kilauea is the child of Mauna Loa
but has far outgrown It's parent in
flow. 1t Is sixteen miles from Mauna
Loa and fifteen miles nearer the town
of Hilo, whose inhabitants have sew
eral times been thrown into state
of terror by the lava flow from Mau-
ma Loa.
Fishermen on the east coast of Ha-
wall say Kilauea has never presented
as grand sight as in the last few
days.
On account Of the relative smaller
height of Kilauea, an eruption from
1t might not reach the north coast, hut
II is Feared Muuna Loa. watch Is 1000
feet higher and in the center Of the
island, would be exploded by the erup-
ton of the other and cover the whole
island.
Hilo Is considered safe from mere
overflow of Kilauea. and it is only an
explosive eruption that is feared. The
overfows from Kilauea usually go
down the south and west slopes and
away from Hilo.
In any event, 1t is likely that the
activity now begun will leave its mark
on the topography of the island. Iu
one Of its overfows 100 years ago Kill
auea gave forth 15,0oo,ooo.o0o cubic
feet of rock and lava, changing the
formation of the coast for miles.
In one of it's later eruptions, that of
1868, Kilauea sent a stream of burn
ing lava sixty miles to the southwest,
where it poured a flaming cataract
over the cliffs into the sea. In the sea
the mass formed a pyramid Of lava,
which, by later accessions, gradually
became attached to the mainland and is
now known as kalae point.

tending from Singmantsu on the Liao

preparatory to investment of the latter
place Linevitcll's dispositions seem
especially taken to meet such a plan.
He would not give battle along his
present line, but would gradually re-
tire and draw in his forces as Oyama's
strategy develops, to the main Russian
positions which extend due east, and
west from Kilin, thru Kuanchangtsu
to Huattaihsiell. A considerable force
OF troops Isl also reported to be due
east OF Kirin as far south as Tumen
river to contest the Japanese advance
toward Viadivostok. 1t
is not regarded as certain the Japanese
advance will really be serious. Oyama
is known to have received large rein
forcements which have filled UP the
japanese ranks and he brought UP inn
mense quantities Of supplies and am
munition after the battle Of Mukden.
But at the war office here there is a
difference of opinion as to whether
Oyama is yet ready and 1t is added II
he is in earnest probably almost a fort
night will elapse before the issue is
decided, the preliminaries of each of
the battles of the present war, in view
OF the fact that the armies cover such
large area, having always been long
and tedious. Up to yesterday the Rus
sian advance posts generally had retir-
ed about eighteen miles. If Oyama's
offensive IS pressed home the climax
should be reached about the time the
sea fight between Rojestvensky and
Togo is anticipated. Linevitch's head
