MALASKAS WONDER.
Eruption of a Volcano That "Was
Long Considered Extinct
A KEEP THAT SEVER WAS FOUND.
The Captain of a Schooner Discovers the
Ecvival of the Fires.
EOHE TEEY ADVENTUROUS EXPLORERS
Just north of TJnimak Island, one of the
Aleutian chain and (situated about 40 miles
lrom land, there lies in Bering Sea a small
isolated islet which has been during the last
fi e or six years an object of great interest
to the scientific world and one of awe to the
casual navigator of theEe remote waters, says
a writer in the San Francisco ChrciUZe. The
name of this little island has been known to
geographers for upward of 100 years as Bog
aslef, which translated from the Rns'Ian
signifies God's word. "When the gallant
Uussian Commander Bering first visited the
tea Tthichafteruartl bore his name he de
scribed the island as being an isolated fiery
mountain belching forth Tolumes of smoke
and flame and he was careful to jive it a
wide berth.
Later oyages commented in various
ways upon the volcano, some authorities
ening so far as to state that the sea for
miles around was heated by the subter
ranean fires and that the ebullition of
nones and lav.i had been so great as to
cause extensive reefs to be formed, thereby
making navigation in the vicinity exceed
ingly dargcrous. Even at this day there
are charts of the locality which show a
icef extending from the southern side of
Bogaslof toward Umuak island, a distance
office or MX miles.
Apparently Extinct 40 Tears Ajri.
Xor, in the course of time the smoke and
fires of Bogaslof gradually decreased in
volume untU nme 40 years ago they ceased
to be noticed, and the v'olcano became noth
ing more terrifying than a huge grayish
cluster of rugged : poles, which rose to a
height of some I'M fort above the sea, and,
bcvnnd l"iiig a danger to navigation to bs
aoHcd in thick or toggy weather, it was of
ii't more interest than hundreds of other
islands in ihii region, which by their forma
tion slum- a similar origin.
itii tbe cession of Alaska to the United
S'atos by Ilussia and the establishment of a
number of trading stations at various points
along tiie Aleutian archipelago, the island
occupying such a conspicuous place right in
the jraLk of vessels plying between the dif
lerent stations once more became an object
of intere-t to the Jresh lot of navigators who
came in ith the no? order of tilings. Xot
satisfied at a distant view, some of these
bold mariners sailed up within hailing dis
tance of the old terror of the seas, and one
master of a schooner, skeptical of the exist
ence of the reef as charted by the Russians,
finding liimseir one day hard pressed by a
strong westerly wind and seeing a good
ciianrc to make port very much quicker by
t-l.apiag a course between the vclcano and
L'mujk Island, resolutely sailed through
the passage directly over the supposed reef;
nnr could he gef bottom anywhere, al
though he diligently sought for it with a
411-fathoru line. The fact is there was no
reef, and the captain had made a discovery.
Exploration of the Island.
The report of this feat was soon noised
abroad, and toon several adventurous spirits
had landed on the island and thoroughly
enlored it. Quantities of sea lions were
found breeding in a sand and grael pit
which projected from the south face of the
volcano, and the crevices in the rocky cliff
flanking the crater were filled with myriads
ot sea birds which had chosen this lonely
Sipot, to rear their young.
In the course of time the nafives of the
adjacent islands formed parties and made
periodical hunting trips to Bogaslof or the
double purpose of procuring the skins of
the sea lion for covering their bidarrahs, or
lurge boats, and for bringing back boat
Inads of eggs, some of which it must be con
fessed were nearer maturity than would
suit our civilired tastes. This state of af
fairs continued until some time in the sum
mer or autumn of 18S2, when the native
hunters reported having seen smoke issuing
from the volcano, end with characteristic
pradence at once and unanimously agreed
to forego the pleasure and profit of their
annual visit to the island.
In September, 18S3, Captain Anderson,
nt that time master of the schooner Matthew
Turner, was bound from Oonalaska to some
trading prt in one of the islands to the
westward, and his route took him close to
Bogaslof. When yet some 20or.'t0 miles
from the island he was astonished to see
vast clouds of smoke pouring upward and
Jrom the sea in the vicinity of the old vol
cano, and, fortunately, being a man of un
usual courage as well as being of an inquir
ing mind, he steered a course which brought
his vessel directly toward the island. In a
short while he wa close enough -o see that
instead of the smoke issuing from the old
volcino a new mountain had arisen from the
scaabout a half a mile north of the old forma
tion, and was connected with it by a narrow
beach or isthmus. The new volcano was
pouring forth dense clouds of smoke,
and at intervals the sky was darkened by a
show er of fiuo volcanic dust and ashes. Sul
phurous flames leaped out of huge crevices
in the flanks of the crater, and the sea for a
couple of miles was discolored by the erup
tion. Tuo Ancient fires Tlnrst Forth.
After remaining in the vicinity long
enough to make these notes Captain An
derson bore away, and in due season re
turned to Oonalaska, where the existence of
the new volcano was reported. Early in
the spring of the year following the writer,
accompanied by Dr. II. AV. Ycmans, was
landed on the island from the United Stated
steamer Corwm, Captain 3L A. Healy,
commanding, for the purpose of obtaining
as much information as possible in regard to
what was at the time probably the youngest
volcauo in existence. The "vessel steamed
carefully around the island, sounding at
frequent intervals, and gradually drew
nearer and nearer, until within less than
half a mile from the shore she came to
anchor in 13 fathoms of water. The new
formation was in an active state of erup
tion, but after carefully observing it from a
safe distance and seeing nothing more dan
gerous than steam and sulphurous flames
issuing from numberless vents in the sides
of the crater, a boat was lowered and a
party made up for a closer inspection of the
island and new volcano.
Fortunately for our purpose, the day was
fine and the sea sc smooth that we landed
without difficulty at ajjoint on the narrow,
connecting beach, about midway between
the old and new formations. The beach was
found to consist of a mixture of sand and
small oolitic stones and was readily
ceen to be ot much greater age than the new
formation, and was evidently, previous to
the recent eruption, a partially submerged
spit, jutting out from the northeast face of
Old Bogaslof An isolated pinnace of rock
87 feet high probably formed the termina
tion of this split and had been elevated
some IS or 20 feet by the recent upheaval.
The fact was shownby the position of water
marks, barnacles, etc., on the side of the
rock.
Difficulties of the Ascent.
The Eides of Xew Bogaslof rise with a
gentle slope to the crater, and the ascent at
irst appearance is easy, but the thin layer
of ashes formed into a crust by the com
bined action of moisture and heat is not
strong enough to bear a man's weight. At
every step our feet crushed through the out
er covering and we sank nt first ankle and
later knee deep into a soft almost impalp
able bed of dust, which arose in clouds and
nearly suffocated" us. As the summit was
ceared the heat of the ashes became almost
unbearable, and we were forced to continue
the ascent by picking our wav over rocks
whose surface being exposed were cooler
and afforded a more secure foothold.
The temperature of the air at" the base
was 44 Fahrenheit, and at the highest
point reached 60. A thermometer buried
in the sand at the bnse of the cone regis
tered 44, half way up the sides 191, and
in a crevice of the ramparts of the crater
tlie mercury rapidly expanded and filled the
tube when the bulh burst, and shortly after
ward the solder used to attach the suspen
sion ring to the instrument wasused. VTc
estimated the temperature at this spot to
be over 500. The temperature of the
water contiguous to the island was 44, and
did not differ from that of the sea as ob
served ontside of nuy possible influence of
the volcano. On all" sides of the cone tre
observed numerous vents .through which
steam and vapor escaped with a dull,
hissing sound. Around each of these
apertures a thick deposit of sulphur
had been made, the fumes of which were
almost unbearable. AVe pushed forward
now with, the utmost precaution toward
what appeared to be a large fissure of the
main peak or wall of the crater if any ex
isted) intending to pass through it and gain
a better view of the inside of the cone. As
we progressed the dull noise which iB per
ceptible on the interior of the cone as a low
purring sound became louder and louder
until at last it filled our ears with a muffled
humming reverberance, which was exceed
ingly trying and altogether impossible to
describe "When we were within some CO
feet of the fissure a sudden gust of wind sent
a cloud of sulphurous smoke, ashes and
vapor down the little canyon in which we
found ourselves and compelled us to beat a
retreat.
One Noticeable Feature.
On the northwest side of the volcano the
flanks of the cave are broken into a thous
and irregularities by masses of erupted
rock, but the southern face is, as I have be
fore stated, almost entirely covered over
with an accumulation of ashes and cinders.
A curious fact noticeable in Bogaflofwas
the entire absence of lava. Small quan
tities of rock-froth, consisting of untused
particles in a semi-fused mass, were ob
sorved, but it is evident that the heat of
the discharge has never been so great as to
produce true fusion. We observed no shells
and but little sea weed on the beach.
Kelp in considerable quantities, however,
was seen close inshore. A walk of a third
of a mile along a pebbly beach brought us
to Old Bogaslof. The northern face of this
extinct volcano rises almost perpendicular
to a heighi. of 32o feet, and is so deeply in
dented as to give it a cave-like formation
and causes the rock to appear as if leaning
toward the north.
Probably nowhere can there be fonnd a
better example of the disintegration of
stone into soil by the action of the asmos
phere than is furnished here. The coiripo
sition of the islet was originally of shale,
but under the varying conditions of tem
perature to which it is continually sub
jected tlie exposed portions of old Bogaslof
are crumbling away, and in time the island.
which at present is cone-shaped, will be
come a tower-like pinnacle or cluster of
pinnacles similar to hundred of isolated
rocks which fringe the phores and stand like
sentinels at the extremities of nearly all of
the Aleutian islands, which are ot-older and
doubtless similar origin.
Myriads of sea birds were found nesting
in the crevices of the cliffs of Old Bogaslof,
aud a large herd of sea lions, some of tre
mendous size, we found on a spit projecting
into the sea from the southern face of the
island. But not a sign of life of any kind
was seen in New Bogaslof
Another Visit TliU Tear.
At the time of our visit in 1834 the fol
lowing measurements were obtained: Old
Bogaslof Height of highest peak, 389 feet;
breadth of base. 933 feet Kcw Bogaslof
Height of highest peak, 384 feet; breadth of
base, 1,008 feet: width of isthmus (narrow
est), 32G feet; length ot south pit, 1,824 feet;
total length of whole, 7,904 feet.
During the Bummer cruise of the United
States steamer Bush in the present year I
again visited the new volcano, and through
me Kinuness oi iapiam w. j. uouisen,
commanding that vessel, was enabled to
make some comparative sketches and ob
servations, which show that during the in
tervening seven years many changes have
taken place in the new formation and
enough has been learned to form a pretty
good idea of the future of this island.
Although still in a state of eruption, the
new formation has sunk into the sea some
hundred feet and the highest point is not
now over 250 feet in height. No accurate
measurement could be obtained on the day
of our last visit on account of the dense
clouds of vapor which hung persistently
around the upper partions of the islet, com
pletely shutting out from view the promi
nent points. The isthmus, which once con
nected the old and new formations, has sunk
out of sight, carrying with it Sail rock,
which at one time" stood 87 feet above sea
level. In fact, where we walked on dry
land seven years ago is to-day covered with
seven fathoms of water, and the sea has
made a passage between the two parts of
the island deep and wide enough for a moderate-sized
ship to sail through.
C0MT0ET FOE THE AILING.
What World's Fair People 'Will Do for the
Feeble and Emergency Cases.
Ciiicaro, Nov. 2. The announcement
made a few days ago that women physicians
will be given official and professional recog
nition at the Exposition was received with
the attention the importance of the fact de
mands. Dr. John K. Owen, medical di
rector of the Exposition, incompliance with
a request from the President of the Board
of Lady Managers, has promised to place
women npon his professional staff, and that
they shall in all respects rank equal with
men in the Exposition Hospital. '
There will also be a model hospital in the
Woman's Building. This is, of course,
separate and distinct from the official hos
pital of the Exposition, of which Dr. Owen
is director, being rather in the nature of an
exhibit. It will, however, be fully equipped
with physicians and trained nurses, a verit
able model hospital, prepared to handle the
gravest cases of accident or illness, and here
women will find another magnificent oppor
tunity. Adjoining the model hospital, and
in connection withit, will be the Depart
ment of Public Comfort, which promises to
become a novel and important feature of
the "World's Fair. In this room will be
couches and hospital beds for such cases of
indisposition or accident as do not require
serious or regular medical attention. Here
old persons, invalids, sufferers from sudden
faintness, swoons or hysterics, children who
are temporarily indisposed, weak people of
all ages needing rest and a spot in which to
lie down, will find what they want in this

DRY HOLES COME H.
The Spotted Character of the McDon
ald Field Demonstrated.
SEVERAL ON TOP OP THE SAND.
A Gusher on the Wallace Farm, Between
the Mathews and JleTcj.
OPERATIONS ARE NOW BEING RUSHED
The production of the McDonald field
yesterday was about 75,000 barrels. "While
this speed is being kept up by a few wells,
a number of the wells which were com
pleted yesterday are little better than dry.
Such results are not unlocked for, as the field
has proven to be spotted in every direction.
There are few lines or theories which will
stand a practical test in this territory. The
only sure test is the drill which alone can
demonstrate the value of the oil bearing
rock. Many an operator has won
thousands . on his theories in
other fields," but in thisit is entirely differ
ent. Wells are found in the most unex
pected places, and dry holes are drilled
where gushers should have been. As an
instanceof the first statement theEUiott No.
1, of the Devonian Oil Company, may be
cited. It is located away off to the west
where no one would have thought of
drilling if it had not been for- the Itoyal
Gas Company's No. 1, on the Mary Bobb
farm. The day the latter well came in The
Dispatch scout was going over the field
with a member of the Koyal Gas Com
pany. Thought It no Good.
A trip to the Mary Robb well was pro
posed, but the Itoyal Gas man demurred,
and gave as an excuse that the well would
be no good. Not two hours after this the
well came in at 100 barrels an honrand
since then has been keeping up its original
record.
The developments yesterday were surpris
ing. The Oakdalc Oil Company's No. 1, on
the Wallace farm, reached the pay streak
and started off at 300 barrels an hour. The
Sam Sturgeon No. 2 is also making from 300
to 350 barrels an hour. The Hopper
No. 1 of the Oakdale Oil Company
is cood for about 500 barrels a day.
The Wallace Oil Company's well
on the lumber yard lot in Southwest Mc
Donald is about through the fifth sand and
showing light. Gnckert & Steele are having
bad luck on the Mevey farm in Southwest
McDonald. Their No. 1 has stopped
flowing, No. 2 is almost dry. No. 5
has been drilled through the sand and is
almost a duster and "No. 4, which was
finished yesterday, is in the last stages of
production. It will only make a small well
at most. Mellon & . Gartland's No. 1,
on the Taylor farm was reported
dry last night. G. W. Sparks
& Co. 's well on the Hughes lot, which is a
part of the Moore farm, was shot yesterday
and will probably make a small producer.
On Top of the Fifth.
There are a number of wells which should
reach the fifth sand to-day or to-morrow,
and these aie being closely watched and
should increase the production.
Ganges of the Wells.
An hourlv gauge of the big wells yester
day resulted as follows: Mathews, 250; Her

Kxport Oil Trade.
The exports of mineral oils from the
United States during the fiscal year ended
June 30, 1891, were 704,387,532 gallons of
the value of ?51,313,454 according to the re
port.of the Bureau ofistatistics ot the Treas
ury Department at Washington. In the
preceding year such exports were but
659,305,475 gallons of the value of S50.854.
522, or an increase of over 55,000,000
gallons in quantity and nearly $400,000
in value. Such an increase in the for
eign trade of the country in a single
commodity would be cause for gen
eral congratulation were it of any other
commodity than petroleum and its products.
But the organization which has carried on
this foreign trade chiefly, through which the
wealth of this nation is increased at the rate
of nearly 51,000,000 per week, has been de
nounced so long by an ignorant rabble of
talkers and equally unconscionable crowd
of inconsiderate scribblers, that the public
have been led to believe there is nothing to
be commended in this enterprise, but rather
the people should rejoice when an obstacle
is put in the wayf the traffic by a foreign
power or combination of competitive per
sons. To those who take an interest in the
traffic and a pride in its success in common
with all other American enterprises, it may
be said that the increase was almost ex
clusively in illuminating oil. The increase
in the exports of that commodity was 47,
289,105 gallons and the increase in value
was ?1,446,363, but there was decreases in
the volume as well as vlue of the crude oil
exported.during the year and a large de
crease, in the exports of naphthas and
residuum. Lubricating oil, however, showed
a slight increase. The month of June, the
last reported shows a continuation of the
same condition increasing exports of illum
inating andlubricating oils and a decrease in
the outgo of crude, naphthas and residuum.
Aclosc examination of the figures will show
a decline in the price generally for export
and they are sufficient to cast a doubt upon
tnat rule so otten stated by political econo
mists as infallible, that a decline in the
price neccssarilv stimulates and increases
sales. Those who start with a bias of this
kind will point to the increasedexports of
illuminating and lubricating oil as proof,
and shrewdlv say nothing about the
other commodities in which the same re
sults have not followed. The price of
naphthas has declined about 13 percent dur
ing the year, but the exports have de
creased, those for June this vear being
but about one-third as much as in the same
month last year. Because this fact does not
verify the rule the philosophers lay down,
thev do not like to consider it. The fact is.
people do not buy anything merely because
it is cheap, but if they buy at all it
is because they want it and are able
to pay the price asked for what
they want. If a price is so high that the
people cannot pay it, no matter how de
sirable the article may be, they will not buy
because they cannot. A decrease in the
price may easily stimulate trade under
certain conditions, therefore, but if an ar
ticle be offered which the people do not
want, reducing the price will not increase
the trade. The desires of the people and
their ability to gratify those desires are the
leading iactors in trade. Price is but an
element, not the controller of activity' or
volume of business.

WART A GZEMAN CONSULATE.
The Fittshuro Chamber of Commerce Ask
for Such Offlcl.l.
The Board of Directors of the Chamber of
Commerce met yesterday afternoon. Presi
dent George A Kelly was in the chair.
A communication was read from Justice
Mulert calling the attentio'n of the board
to the agitation now going on in this city
for the establishment of a German Con
sulate here. Mr. Mulert hoped the board
would take some action in the matter, as it
would add greatly to Pittsburg's commer
cial importance.
Some of the members of the board were
astonished that there was no German Con
sulate in this citv, thev having been labor
ing under the belief that Max Schamberg
represented the German Empire. J. B.
Scott was heartily in favor of the establish
