Pouring Down Upon Hilo Ono
of the Greatest Eruptions on
Record.
Advices from Honolulu Have l > con
received to July 17 , per steamer
.Australia at San Francisco. The.
most exciting event when the steamer
loft Honolulu was the new outburst
otMaunaLoa , which threatened to
cause great destruction. The sheriff
of Hawan writes from Hilo as follows :
* 'I fear that wo ore on the brink of a
Treat calamity. The laya stream has
at last broken out of the woods im
mediately nbovo Vnlakia and the fish
pond , and that portion of Hilo , in
cluding possibly the harbor , cannot
escape oxciJpt by a miracle. Last
Saturday gradually increasing action
noticed , and on Saturday nijrht
and Sunday the lava broke
out of the woods , and get
ting into n small wator-courso
came rushing down in the direction of
Kukuas and Kalipohpo at great
speed. Monday I visited the sconq of
the flow and it was a truly terrific
sight to sco streams of lava almost as
liquid as water rushing down the beds
of streams , pouring over fertile land
and carrying destruction with it every
where. Tlio roar of burning grass
and ferns , the explosions and concus-
Blond , were fearful. While wo were
watching it about three hours tlio
stream progressed some 400 feet. It
cannot bo moro than about two miles
from the sea in a direct lino. A con
tinuous stream of people are coming
and going. It seems almost incredi
ble that a lava stream is so near us ,
but it is , alas , too truo. Ono part of
the town seems safe , but if the stream
cots into the bay it will doubtless do-
ntroy it , and all the pcoplo in that vi
cinity will bo ruined and homeless.
This morning ( Juno 30) ) the report
from the flow is that action at the
lower end is somewhat abated , but
further up it continues as violent as
over. It is probably only a temporary
lull. '
Another correspondent describes
the outbreak as follows : "About
Juno 22 the old mountain was ob
served to be moro than usually active ,
the whole summit crevasse pouring
forth immense volumes of smoke. By
Friday noon the three sothorn arms
had all joined into ono , and rushing
into a deep but narrow gulch forced
its way down the gulch in a rapid
flow. By Saturday noon it had run a
mile. The flow was on an average of
seventy-five feet wide and from ton to
thirty foot in dept , as it filled the
gulch up level with its banks. The
sight was grand. The whole frontage
was ono moss of liquid lava carrying
on its surface huge cakes of partly
cooled lava. Soon after wo had reach
ed it the flow reached a deep hole ,
come ton or fifteen feet in depth , with
purpcndicular sides.The sight , as
it poured over the fall in two cascades ,
was magnificent. The flow was then
moving at the rate of about seventy-
five feet an hour. If it goes through
Kukuau , probably all the lower or
front part of the town will fall a prey
to Mmo. Polo. " -
H.Tho Hawaiian Gazette of July ( i ,
say a : "Tho past week has boon ono
of great excitement in Hilo in consequence
quence of the renewed activity in the
volcanic fires on B fauna Loa , One
arm of the fiery stream has pushed it
self into the Kuknau gulch , and is
within Ihroo miles of the Village of
, Hilo. _ All Hilo may bo said to have
visited the flow during the last few
days. Men. women and childronsomo
on foot ana some on horseback , have
made the pilgrimage. As scon on
Wednesday , Juno 21) ) , it presented a
view never to bo forgotten. A milo
above the lower end of the stream the
lava was flowing in a liquid , living
torrent , some thirty foot wide along
its course , consuming everything in
In its way. From this ppint about half
a milo of the soothing , surging torrent
could bo seen. The bolt covered with
lava was some COO feet , all hot and
liable at any moment to break out
into renewed activity. At night the
scone was awfully grand beyond de
scription. "
The Rev. Tituu Coan writes from
Hilo , under date of Juno 28 : "Tho
northern wing of the line in loss than
six miles from us , and the southeast-
1 em is loss than BIZ miles distant ,
while the centre of the line appears
more sanguinary. From the south-
cast wing the seething fusion has
fallen into a rough water channel
twenty to thirty foot wide , which
comes down from the main bed of tht
flow , lmost direct to Hilo. Wo
found two streams of liquid lava
coming down in rocky channels ,
which are sometimes filled with roar
ing waters but nearly dry at this time.
1 Those two gulches are too suiajl to
Iiold the soothing fusion , and the fiery
.flood overruns the banks and spreads
out on either side. The united
width of these streams may vary from
Jifty to 200 foot.
Following is part of a graphic letter -
tor just received from Bishop Coan ,
of Hawaii , by his son , Mr. Titus
Munson Coan , of this city :
KILO , Hawaii , Juno 0 , 1881.
Hilo is in trouble. The iircry line
burns at night , four or five miles in
length , only liyo miles from us , and
its approaches , though slow , are per
sistent. But wo are now in immedi
ate danger. From the main column
of lava in our rear a stream of molten
fire has come down directly from Kuu-
inana , following the gorge of a water
ft i channel , and this stream is only about
t * > ' two nnd a quurter miles from our vil
lage. It is heading for Kukuau , and
it will , If not stayed , strike the Vol.
cano street about one-fourth of a milo
from Church street , on which wo lie ,
falling into the htud waters of the
"
"WaJolama , and entering our harbor
about midway of the beach.
< * ' This stream is fearfully active. It
ir is ubout fifty to ono hundred feet wide
where it is confined in the gulches ,
uut it is sure to spread indefinitely
where there is space. By night the
imaginary glow IB featful , like a flaming -
ing banner high in the heavens ,
Some days its progress towards us is
one-eighth to half a milo a day. From "
the town you can walk up to the lava
stream in forty minutes , and return in
thirty. Thousands of people visit it t ,
sometimes a hundred in a day. 1
liavo been up to it and dipped up thy >
fusion. As it comes down the rocky
bed of the ravine the roar
of the lava U like that of the Wailuka :
river in flood , but a heavier and deep
er cound ; it is the bass , and tlio other >
the tunor. Sometimes the cound is
likw distant thunder. Its explosions
and detonations are rapid nnd start
ling. I counted ton in n minute. In
some places it has overflowed itn
banks and spread out 200 or 300 feet
laterally , burning the jungle aud cut-
tint ; down the trees.
Wo now expect the lava filrcam to
enter Hilo Harbor in a few days.
What damage it will do there remains
to bo seen. Should it spread out when
it reaches the low nnd level parts of
Kukuau and punahawnj , joining
Punahoa , where wo live , it may burn
many houses nnd cut our village in
two , but Hilo will not bo entirely de
stroyed unless the vast masses of fire
that nro accumulating upon the moun
tain slope should como down upon us.
Wo look to the Lord for help in these
days or trial. TITUS COA.V.
Tbo South ,
Memphis AvnUnihc.
Every day evidence is developed
tending to show that the South is just
now entering upon n career of pros
perity , the hko of which was never
dreamed ol before by the most sanguine -
guino friend of southern progress.
And why should not the south pros
per ? Its soil is excellent , its climate
mild , productions varied , nnd its po
sition in relation to the commerce of
the world in every way advantageous.
That now channels of commerce
would bo opened up , every thoughtful
man has long ago conceded. And
now these channels of trade are
being rapidly dovclopcd. In this
grand onward march Memphis should
see its opportunity , nnd proceed at
once on the road to greatness , Why
should the southern states look toward
New York ? On the Atlantic seaboard ,
hundreds of miles nearer to all the
chief southern centres of trade , there
are ports which offer superior advan
tages over any that can legitimately
bo claimed for any of the Atlantic
cities north of Chesapeake bay. We
may mention in this connection , Nor
folk , nnd a rising city the future
great emporium of the south Newport -
port Hows. This splendidly located
port is situated at the junction of the
James river with Hampton roads.
Thia place unless all indications fail
is destined to become the chief
American seaport on Iho south Atlan
tic coast of the United States. In
natural advantages it can bo excelled
by none in the United States. Just
now much interest centres in the
movements in progress which promise
ore long to make Newport News for
the southern half of the Union what
Now York has long been regarded
the chief Atlantic seaport , the princi-
ilo commercial gateway , if the term
bo allowable , through which n vast
trade must pass. The grand railroad
schemes now being developed under
the sagacious direction of Mr. Huntington -
ington promise to make that city the
eastern terminus of a system of rail
roads ramifying the entire southern
states , and extending west , termina
ting on the Pacific shore. Of this
magnificent system of trans-continotal
transportation lines , the Memphis ,
Paducah and Northern railway will
form an important link. Already ,
Mr. Huntington has secured this
valuable property , and now the work
of completing a continuous line of
railway from Memphis to Newport
News , by nay of the Ohoanpoako nnd
Ohio railway , is a task of easy accom
plishment. Only n few short gaps is
required to bo completed to make the
line a continuous ono from Memphis
to the Atlantic. In the west the
same company have many miles of
trackway already laid down , nnd to
complete an inter-oceanic linobotwoon
Newport News and the ports of * the
Pacific const would not bo a vorygroat
undertaking. This system , completed
in its entirety , takes in the link be
tween Memphis and Jefferson , Texas ,
which so shrewd an operator as Mr.
Huntington will not bo long , to per-
coiyo , and of course with so favorable
a situation on a great trunk line of
railways running past nnd west , and
the Mississippi river flowing to the
southward , ought certainly to profit
by such an immense expansion. And
she will profit by these movements
among the people.
The "Liver" '
Detroit Frro 1'rcus.
Dr. Bliss and his contemporaries
who have been trying to make the
president believe that if the bullet
struck his liver ho will have a close
shayo of it , know very little about
that organ , or else they have entered
into a conspiracy to scare him to death.
Right here in our stnto of Michigan
ono can collect a cart-load of nflldu-
vits that a man's liver is about the
most worthless organ in the human
body , and down in Indiana they won't
Imvo 'em at all if they can hulp it.
Our correspondent at Lansing writes :
"Please let the president know
through your columns that in 1872 , a
boy fired a big agate marble through
my liver from a toy cannon. I stuffed
up tie ] hole with an old hat and after
the third day I could attend to busi
ness as well as over. The injury
rather blunted my taste for Now
Orleans molasses , but aside from that
I have noticed no serious effects. "
Our correspondent at Mackinaw
sends down the following :
"The president need not bo alarmed
about his liver , Last fall my brother
got in the way of a blast at a Lnko
Superior mine , and a stone weighing
a pound was driven clear through him ,
carrying portions of his liver over 200
feot. The doctors pronounced him
a dead man , but in four weeks he
was able to play base ball , nnd has
never had oven a headache since.
I enclose you the stone which knocked
his liver out as proof ot my state-
inonts. "
Our conospondent nt St. Joseph
writes :
"In Juno , last year , I had a colored
man named John Baker in my employ.
While driving a mowing-machine ho
fell to the ground and was badly cut
up. Among other wounds ho had his
liver cut slick in two. and a council
of seven doctors decided-thai ho must
die within two hours. Ho is now &
tronjj'i'st land of plug tobacco , and
diinking whiskey which kills ordinary
men stone dead at thirty-six rods. "
Our correspondent at Grand Haven
BJIJS ho knows an Indian who was
ripped open with a buzz-saw and his
liver flung upon a beam forty foot
away , The doctors sewed him up in
such a hurry that the lost organ was
foinotton , but the red , mun has
suffered no inconvenience whatever ,
On the contrary , ho has never been
in such spirits. He can drink twice
i innch whiskey wjthotit getting
.ngledj it is muclveasier for him to
wcer ; ho docs riot-perspire as much ;
ic is cured of the habit of snoring :
coat fits better in the back ; dried
pplcs have improved in taste , nnd ho
rould not have the old thing back
, gain under nny circumstances. The
ntiro sash , door and blind shop in
rln'cli the accident occurcd has been
orwardcd to substantiate the asser-
oils , and the medical fraternity nro
ivi ted to call nnd have their doubts
cmovcd.
A CROP OP OIL.
L Tittmrillo Blnclcumttli Striken it
Illcli While Spiuliac Iti His
Gnrdon.
[ nclntmtl ( lazottc.
A month or songo Sebastian Hnohn ,
blacksmith living in McchanicRtreet
was spading in his garden after nhenvy
ain. As ho turned up the earth
o noticed that little pools of crude
_ iotroloum were formed in the cavities
made by his spado. Ho dug n pit four
"cot deep. It filled up with oil to such
,11 extent that ho dipped out five bar-
els full. The oil was of excellent
unlity , and ho sold it to the Octavo
il rclinory. Week before last ho dug
.Mother well in his garden. Itrcspond-
id with a yield of two barrels an hour.
Iho well attracted great attention , It
Toduccd eighty barrels and then
icased to flow. Tlio excitement over
ho novel oil territory died out soon
itonvnrd.
On Monday last the nowa spread
.hrough the city that Hnohn had
ipenod another well in his garden ,
nd that it was yielding at the rate of
, hirty-six barrels a day , Hundreds
locked to the scene of the now oil
pcrations. With a largo tin hand-
ump the owner was taking out of
ho Jiolo two barrels of oil an hour.
His previous well had also started
ignin. From that ono of his sons
; vns taking oil at the rate of twenty
i.arrols n day.
Immediately following this strike of
.ho lucky blacksmith a great demand
'or leases of adjoining gardens arose.
Cho right to dig on four feet of n
mnn'a garden became worth § 5 bonus
.nd n quarter of the oil. On Tuesday
tight Theodore Avery , who lias a
enl yard adjoining Hnehn's garden ,
iut down n well. At the depth of
our feet ho struck oil. The yield
ivos a barrel nn hour. Ho has
j > ut down four moro wells since.
The wells were yesterday yieldIng -
Ing eight barrels nn hour. Several
inoro wells were struck in this terri
tory , ono of which is pumping twenty-
five barrels n day. Two five barrel
ivolls nro of excellent green oil. The
other parties struck oil of rod hue ,
and the appearance of being mixed
tar.
tar.Haohn's
Haohn's garden is now yielding 100
barrels a day. Ho expects to increase
t to 200. The oil is worth at the re
fineries § 110 n barrel. The price of
ono barrel dfafrays all the expense of
putting down a well.
There are many theories in regard
o this unheard of presence of potro-
oum in largo quantities so near the
lurfaco. Ono is that the oil is the
oakago of the tanks and pipe lines ;
another is that this deposit has boon
forced up from the true petroleum
sand stratum by some unknown ,
agency , and caught and retained in
' .ho . stratum where it now lies.
Gaslight andlElootripity.
N. Y. Ercnlng I'ost.
The Edisons and the other elec-
.riciansliavo . so often shouted ' 'wolf" '
it the doors of the gas companies that
' ; hose comfortable corporations no
.ongor are alarmed by the outcry.
When it was first announced that the
ilectric spark was about to give us a
brighter , cleaner , safer and perhaps
cheaper light than the ono to which
ivo nro accustomed there was sonio-
liing like n panic in gas stocks ,
loldois who had boon drawing largo
ilividonds for many years made haste
to sell , but the more knowing ones
clung to their shares and added to
them until the event amply justified
the proceeding 'Under ' the influence
of topeated failures in the introduc
tion of the now illuminatingnginit the
308 stocks recovered and ogam com-
naiid high prices.
What is moro to the purpose , the
manufacturers maintain the charge
for gas at a high figure. It might
have been supposed that oven the re
mote prospect of the entry of a lor-
midablo rival upon the field would in
duce the companies to prepare for n
sharp competition by making friends
of their customers and swelling their
number through the instrumentality
of reasonably low rates ; but this ex
pectation lias been disappointed , The
companies , on the contrary , have in
curred the cmnity of their customers
nnd oven driven many of them away
by keeping up the prices and by con
tinuing to connive at the rascally eo-
oontricitioa nn that familiar household
fiend , the meter , which , according to
common ropoit , registers the more
gas the fewer bunion * nro lighted , nnd
sometimes revenges itself upon people
AV ho shut up ( heir houses in summer
by keeping n strict account of g.is
that is not used and submitting at the
end of the vacation as large n bill as
for the consumption of n % inter of
long nights. vnrious theories are
suggested in explanation of the course
of the manufacturer ! ) . Ono is that
the long delay in furnishing n cheap
light for oidinnry donu < stiu use 1ms
encouraged on their part in respect to
the electric experiment an incredulity
similar to tlio scepticism of lietsuy
Prig concerning the mythical Mrs.
Harris , and that they are ready to
take the chances on u successful rival
ry for many years to como , Another
theory is that , while they really bo-
Hove that the now light may nt nny
time become n practical success , they
purpose to make hay while the sun
shines , or while the gas burns , toavui !
themrolvos of the
present popular ne
cessity to secure as plentiful a Imrves !
as may bo in order to fortify them
selves for a lively competitions at
reduced rates when that is at lost in
evitable
Whatever the explanation may ba
the charges nro maintained. New
York pays t\vo and two-thirds times
na much for gas ns London , two and a
half times aa much ns Ghent , twice
as much as Amsterdam , Berlin or
Brussels , and half lu much again as
Paris , Lyons or Marseilles. That the
increase in this country is not war
ranted by tho'greator cost of nmtoria
is shown .by the fact that while coa
sells for five dollars a ton in Londoi
and four dollars in Philadelphia the
> rico of ns in the last named city is
hreo times what it is in the other. Of
course , if thcro wan ns frco compoti-
lon in making and sollinirgas as there
s in the bread nnd meat trafllc , for
nstanco , tlio extravagant rates could
lot bo sustained , This question is
ikin to that of the railroads and
) thor kinds of business which by
ho nature and circumstances of the
case are to a greater or less do-
grco monopolies. The _ exclusive
mvilegcs of the corporations enable
hem not only to fix their own rates
> ut also to impose vexatious condi *
.ions which the customer would not
submit to if ho had a choice in the
matter. So far as the gas companies
nro concerned ho has often forced a
choice , nnd. nt considerable inconve
nience to iiimself , has escaped from
nnnoying exactions by falling back
upon kcroscno nnd other oils.
The high chnrgcs for gas servo ono
useful purpose as a constant incentive
o cflorts to bring the electric light
nlo common uso. Thcro is no longer
any doubt about electricity as a prac-
.icablo illuminator. The only part of
, ho problem yet to bo solved is its
production at such n rate ns will war-
ant its general adoption. When that
s accomplished the gas companies
may bo sure that their long-suffering
customers will bo restrained from
ibandoning them by no sentimental
considerations whatever.
