VESUVIUS AGAIN IN FIERCE ERUPTION.
fe.v Telegraph.—-Press Assn.—Copyright. Aus. and N.Z. Cabl® Association. ROME. November 2S. Mount Vesuvius is in eruption. A cataract of lava has invaded the northern slopes. It extends almost 1500 yards from the crater, which is hurling great fragments of incandescent material into the air, accompanied by shattering explosions. The observatory professor states that the lava stream is moving too slowly to reach Terzigno. The outbreak is due to the accumulation of rainwater in the crater. He predicts that it will moderate in a few days.
