DISCOVERY IN AUSTRALIA. VAST CRATERS FORMED. ADELAIDE. July 10. Thirteen large craters, blasted into the face of the earth years ago by a huge meteorite «o heavy that if it were to fall on Adelaide to-day it would destroy the whole metropolitan area, have been found in Central Australia. Three of the craters are larger than the biggest crater made by the meteorite which fell in Northern Siberia 23 years ago and devastated hundreds of square miles of forest land.
