The volcanic clouds advanced until they reached Fort de France. The rays of the rising Bun Jighted them until the clouds looked like molten metal suspended in'the air and roiling over the city.

London, May 22.—The correspondent of the Dally Mail at Kingstown, St. Vincent, describes In a dispatch the conditions on that island. He says that 80 per cent of the persons injured cannot recover. The whole island resembles a Sahara, and the graves of humans and the remains of animals are seen on every side. Owing to the difficulty of breathing the correspondent could not get near I.a Sotifrlere. Everywhere on the Island the rivers have been stopped by the dust or lava, and ill one valley the dust lies sixty feet deep. Most of the deaths on St. Vincent were caused by a blast of heated sulphurous air. The authorities have ascertained, continues the correspondent, that the rumor that another crater had been formed by the eruption of last Monday is untrue. Walter E.
