Foreign Correspondence Of The Star.
NAPLES. April 1S, 1911.
For some time past Herr Emmanuel
Freidlander has been working for the
establishment in this city OF an inter
national institute to carry on a contin-
uous and systematic investigation of vol
canic phenomena. An observatory has
existed on Vesuvius for many years, but
from the insufficient means at its dispose!
no extended and systematic work has
hitherto been possible
Such an institute as Herr Freidlander
contemplates will be provided with the
necessary Laboratories and instruments
for the regular measurement of temper
atures on Nesuvius, for tie periodical
collection and analysis of gases and for
the registration and observation OF local
earthquakes of a volcanic character, NOT
only during the eruptive phases OF the vol
cano, but also TIL oughout its periods OF
comparative calm 1t would form
training school for volcanolosists. as well
as give opportunity for other scientific
persons to make observations.
Value Would Be Great.
The practical and scientific value o.
such an institute would be great. In most
volcanoes eruptions occur according to a
more than probable that careful and
exact registration OF phenomena may en-
able the observers to foresee the time
and magnitude of an eruption BY a
closer observation also OF fumaIolic activ-
ity and Of the transformation of rocks II
would be possible to form a clearer con-
cepton of the origin of beds.
After communicat ng his plan TO the las
international geoloa.cal con.ress, held In
Stockholm. and obtaining the approval
Of the congress. Herr reidlander set 10
work to canvass among the scientific
societies of every nation for supporters
He has now secured S.Xty-two eminent
names among them twenty-five Italians,
nineteen Germans and three Englishinen.
The Royal Academy of Naples and the
geological committee of Italy have given
their adherence To the scheme. some 5 KY
OF the most prominent scientific ana polli-
ical personages of Italy are forming u
committee to promote it, and the Italian
government will shortly decide DIS 10 wha-
official support can be given also. Herr
Freidlander himself has contributed
$4,000 toward the erection Of a building
