TALKS ABOUT VEsUVIUS.
Assistant at Observatory Denies Re.
ported New Eruptions.

NEW YORK. September frank A.
Ferret, an assistant at the Vesuvian OBJ
servatory, whose action in remaining at his
post during last years eruption of the
volcano gained him general commentator
and who Is now at his home here on a
brief vacation, spoke Interestingly in an in
tervlew regarding the cabled reports of a
new eruption of Mount Vesuvius. He de-
clared that there could be no eruption at
this time, but that there had been land
slides in the crater and that the clouds
of dust arising therefrom perfectly resem-
bled new eruption.
The recent reports of new eruption
were at once known by me to be err
roneous.'' said Mr.. Perret. 1T was quite
easy to recognize in the account from
Sorrento one of those large internal land
slides which are a familiar post-eruption
feature.
The interior walls Of the crater are very
steep, and as the cone Is a congiomerate
mass of loose materials, a portion of the
rim may become undermined and detached
by a slight earth tremor and fall into
abyss. This mass, which may weigh hun
dreds Of tons congresses the air below
1t. and on reaching the bottom of the
crater is at once elected an immense cloud
Of dust and ashes. which perfectly resem-
bles true eruption and presents a suff1-
cient'y terrifying appearance to the I'M
initiated.
"Other landsides often follow the first,
and the effects may continue for some
time and the dust be carried by the wind
to a great distance, producing in that par
ticular direction light fall Of ashes. But,
in the second place. the cabled reports
described an outbreak of considerable vio-
lence, with lava streams, all of which Is
practically impossible at this time"
In telling why this was impossible Mr..
Perret said that Vesuvius had a fairly
well defined cycle of operations. After. a
great eruption like that of last year there
followed a period of absolute rest, the dura-
ton Of which is variable, but would not be
less than the present lapse of time, and
might last for several years. When the
awakening came. he said, 1t was gradual
The bottom of the crater caved in and
small explosions began to build up little
cones on the crater floor as the lava, which
has forced and melted its way up the CEN
trail conduits entered the crater cavity
Then came long period of moderate activ-
ity, with occasional outbreaks of greater
violence, until at last great eruption
cleared the vent. This, Mr.. Perret said,
might take another thirty years or more.
This cycle of events is not inevfta BILE "
Mr.. Perret continued, but it is extremely
probab BILE So far as Vesuvius is concerned
let me repeat that there is no danger Of a
serious outbreak for some time to come.
Etna should be the next"
