ANOTHER PEAK HAS BLOWOUT
 ON PENINSULA

ANCHORAGE, Jan. 26. - That Mt. Moses, volcanic peak in the vicinity of Mt. Pavlof, has broken out in erup- tion is the substance Of wireless mes sages received here from the lower Alaska Peninsula. The messages state that large volume of smoke made it's appearance in that vicinity, followed by two violent earthquake shocks. Both shocks were felt at Anchorage, one occurring at twenty minutes past four and lasting for few seconds in which bottles in drug stores and dishes in homes were rattled from their shelves and broken. The second quake was less severe. The eruption is believed to be possible repetition of the seismic disturbances of 1906 when the island of Bogoslov disap- peared and later returned, and when great changes were produced in the ocean floor along the Unimak Pass route to Boring Sea.
