FEARED.
REFUGEES FLockING TO
CITY OF oUAoALAJARA
Clouds Of Sand and suHoeatins Gases
Driven by High Winds and Villages
road Tracks Covered With Debris
and Trains Get Thru With Difficulty.

Guadalajara. Mexico, Jan. 2l.-The
volcano OF Colima broke into violent
eruption last night. Thousands OF peo-
pie are fleeing from villages and
ranches in the vicinity There has been
some loss of life. it is believed.
Hundreds of refugees arrived In this
city this morning on train composed
OF box cars which had been picked up
at siding at nearby village. The
fleeing people had found it necessary
to shovel away quantity Of volcanic
sand before they were able to move
the cars and for many miles along the
way here the train had to be stopped
frequently to clear the track of debris.
Suffocatins Gases Emitted.
Very little lava was elected from the
crater which, however. emitted vast
quantities Of smoke and sand. and suf-
locating gases formed an unusual feat
ure of the eruption.
A gale wars blowing from the north
west and this probably saved many Of
the nhabitants in the surrounding dis
tricts. as 1t caused the flying sand and
deadly gases to pass over their heads.
The activity OF the volcano decreased
during the night but volcano dust Is
now settling on the house roofs and the
streets of this city.
The station agent at Zapottlio
abandoned his post during the night
and reports that volcanic sand covered
the tracks in places to depth OF sew
cral feet.
The last violent eruption OF Colima
occurred In 1903.

rangements were made for popular
reception at the capital building as
substitute for the inaugural ball, Mrs
Wilson and the Misses Wilson would
attend. The governor said that the
impression that the members Of his
family would not be present probably
had arisen from his letter to William
c. Eustis the Inauguration chairman.
Perhaps l did not make 1t clear tr
my letters" said Mr.. Wilson today. "bu,
meant simply that the ladies should
not be expected to stand in line and
shake hands"
The governor said that while he him
self did not fear the strain Of the hand
shaking ordeal, he thought his family
should be excmsed.
Did Not Fear "Turs<ey Trot."
The governor took occasion to deny
published reports that he and MRS
Wiylson had favored the abandonment
Of the inaugural ball because OF the
possibility that the dancers might IN
dulge in the turkey trot and similar
dances. He said he had opposed the
idea Of an inaugural ball chiefly be-
cause Of the indirect expense to the
government.
