The morning Astorian. [volume] (Astoria, Oregon) 1899-1930, 1907-07-16

| SAN FRANCISCO, July l5.--'rhe out
burst OF volcano on the peninsula ol
Kamtchatka on February Is last threw
tho whole country into utter darkness
for more than Is hours and resulted IN
tho starving OF scores OF natives, ae'
eording to the officers OF the barkentine
IS, n. Castle, which reached port last
evening direct from the okhotsk Sea.
Tho natives, some OF whom could speak
English, told Captain Petersen and his
men that they had no knowledge oi the
source Of tho terrible storm that had
come upon them.
They knew only that while they we're
crossing the valleys in the first flush Of
spring, a wave oi dust fell upon them,
followed by utter darkness that con.
tnued Tor two days and nights, Lava,
almost hot, fell all about them, and
there were such showers of black ashes
that their progress was stayed and they
were lucky TO lind undried creeks and
springs, But the party OF natives was
In dire straits and some of them had
succumbed to their hardships. In re-
sponsc to their request, Captain reder-
sen sent of two boat loads "a provi,-
ions which the suffering natives said
would suffice TO keep them on the way
to petropaulovski.
Captain pcder,en stated that on June
Is he was cod fishing in the 0khotsh
Sea eight miles from the shore, in com.
pany with the schooner J u Sprrckels,
tho barkcntincs Fvmout aud City OF
papeete AL from san Francisco, when
tho Maudiur hove in sight The com,
manditg officer, said Captain Petersen,
boarded the Castle, seized not only The
ships clearance papers, but all of Cap
tain Pedersen's private papers and his
masters commission and certificate.
Captain Petersen demonstrated, declar-
Ing that his vessel was outside Of the
three mile limit and therefore he was
violating no law. The Russian com,
mander, however stated that no fishing
would be allowed within 30 miles Of
the shore and gave the s \. Castle and
other vessels seven days TO get beyond
ths limit.
AS u number OF the Fremont's crew
were on shore nj the time, the vessels
remained for six days awaiting their
return. When on the sixth day, the
gunboat again appeared on the horizon,
the Castle and the ]. y. Spreckes sailed
for San Francisco, leaving the Fremont
and the Papeete. Captain Petersen will
lay the matter before United States At.

dresses

deliver an address at the Virginia state
fair. On the advice of close political
associates with whom he has recently

the day, and in a sense the speech
will be a curtain raiser for the 1908
campaign.
According to those in a position to
know, it has been Mr.. Bryan's inten-
ton all along to defer the formal open
ing Of his campaign until near the end
of the year, The activity of President
Roosevelt, Vice President Fairbanks
and other republican leaders has
brought about q change in the plans
of Mr.. Bryan. however. His friends
have urged him to declare himself at
once upon the political issues of the
day They have impressed upon the
Nebraskan the necessity for immediate
action in view of the recent attacks
upon him in the southern states of the
Atlantic seaboard.
ACliiIB upOIl tlelT etuViCe MI, Bryan
decided to appear in person and an
swer the attacks made upon him. Aft
er filling his Richmond date he win
make a visit at a number of other
places in Virginia and North Carolina.
He will then go north stopping en-
route for a conference in Washington,
and later will be heard in a number
of cities in New York state. He viii
remain in the East for some weeks and
according to schedule will fill a number
of dates in New England.
