REDDING, Cal, June 16.-Fearing
a widespread disaster as the result OF
an eruption OF Mount Lassen, the
American volcano. settlers In the ter
rltory about the mountain are leaving
by scores today. Forest Supervisor
W. j. Rushing issued a formal notice
today warning visitors against APP
preaching the craters. The supervisor
admits he was mistaken in supposing
the eruption only the manifestation
of a geyser He said Lassen is a gen
uine. active volcano which, may burst
into greater violence at any moment.
Observers of the two outbreaks OF
Sunday differ on the question whether
fire spouted from the main crater. A
majority declare the eruptions were
confined to steam, ashes, pumice and
boulders.
The last eruption took place last
night. but was not violent. Subse-
qGent rumhlngs. however, indicated
more outbreaks are coming. Super
stitious Indians living in the noun
tains OF the vicinity. declare the erup-
tions are only the manifestation OF
