Philippines Resembles Islands of the
West Indies, Especially in Being
the Scene of Violent Past and
Present Volcanic Energy.
"Washington, D. C, May 29. Of in
terest in connection with the recent
volcanic eruptions in the West In
dies, is the report of George F. Beck
er, on the geology of the Philippine
islands, which has just appeared in
Part III of the Twenty-first annual
Report of the United States Geologi
cal Survey, and which contains a re
view of everything bearing upon the
geology of those islands.
The report deals in general with
the geologic and economic features
of the islands, from extant reports
on the subject and from studies in
the fleid, so far as they have been
carried on during the disturbed per
iod of 1898-'99, though geologizing
under arms and with a military es
cort was found to be more exciting
than profitable.
In many respects the Philippine
islands so closely resemble the West
Indies, especially in being the scene
of violent past and present volcanic
energy, that the chapter of the report
on the active and extinct volcanoes
of the archipelago is at this time
particularly interesting. While It
was possible to visit but few of these
mountains, owing to tho hostility oi
the natives, much vaulable informa
tion was collected from local and
other sources. Forty nine of the er
uptive mountains were located among
the islands, and their altitudes and
the dates of their eruptions obtained,
Conspicuous among them was Mt,
Ano. the highest mountain in the
Philippines, which rises 10.7G1 feet
above the level of the sea. At Can
iguin de Mindanao, one of tho most
interesting tf the group, a cone
nearly 2000 feet in height has risen
since 1871 over what was formerly
lake, tho basin of which was pre
sumably an ancient crater. Mayon
or the vocano of Albay, is said to be
them ost symetrically beautiful cone
in the world; and the famous Taal
volcano, situated on a small volbanic
island in the lake of Bonbon, is read
ily accessible from Manila. The ac
counts of the eruptions of theso and
other volcanoes of the group bear a
striking resemblance to those of the
recent outburst of Mt. Pelee in Mar
tinique. Of an eruption which oc
curred in the year 1C41 near Jolo the
report quotes: "the darkness and at
mospheric disturbances were so
great that the people of Jolo could
not percieve from whence came the
stuff which fell from heaven upon
them." And in one of the numerous
eruptions at Taal, loud detonations
like discharges of artillery were
heard, incandescent stones were
thrown out, and a great fire ran like
a river across the island. The fire
then shifted into lake-Bonbon, throw
ing up water and ashes in immense
masses. "The water grew hot and
black, fish were strewn on the tbeach
as if they had been cooked, and the
air was so full of sulphurous smells
and the odor of dead fishes that the
inhabitants sickened." At one of
the eruptions of Albay, that In 1814,
1200 lives are said to have been lost.
