The area cov- cred by lava comprises sixteen square miles. MANY FLEE TO SAFETY. The fact that the loss of life an: damage to property in St. Vincent were smaller than in_Martinicue is due to the position of La Soufriere und the smaller population of the district, the mountain overhanging sugar and 'arrowroot es- tates and a couple of thinly populated villages, whose inhabitants wer warning of the approaching disaster and fled for their lives.

NEW YORK, May 17.—In a letter writ- ten just before he started on his last voy- | age, which ended when his ship was de- stroyed in the roadstead off St. Pierre b; the_explosion of Mont Pelee, Captain T. Muggah indicated that he had a pre- sentiment of impending disaster. The let- ter was written to an old friend, the cap- tain of a Canadian Government steamer. To Captain Muggah, Mont Pelee, in Martinique, and the Soufriere of St. Vin- cent were 0ld acquaintances. More ‘than once he had salled under their shadows, and he had not the confidence in them that was displayed by the natives of the \\"edst *Indian islands. In his letter he said: We are leaving here for Martinique in the morning, and I hope the old Roraima will do as well as she did on her last voyage. We have some passengers this trip, including the mate's family and other women. I hope that thev will get through all right. I heard a pe- culiar yarn from a priest not long ago about the forming of a lake on the summit of Mont Pelee, like the one formed in 1812 on Sou- friere. Really, I have a creepy sensation when under the lee of the mighty crater. McLEAN SENDS REPORT. Commander of Cincinnati Tells of Conditions on Islands.
