GRK AT CLOl'PS VOLCANIC ASHES
IN ARGENTINA.
Beunos Aires, Dec. 19.?Vast clouds
o f volcanic ashes from the erupting
In thn 'MiiIph nrr ftwf.tmlng
across Argentina, obstmring the sun
in many sections. Carried bya.iomh
w'eat-wintt froth a point m the Andes
range at about latitude 41. where the
eruptions are supposed to be occur
ring, ashes are reported to have (alien
at places nearly 10 degrees ot latitude
farther north and from the Andes to
the Atlantic Qce&i^.
The flrst ash clouds reached the city
uf Lu Plain [hilly-live miles southeast
ot this city at ? o'clock yesterday af
ternoon. Weather bureau observers
also reported a slight film ot dust over
Ueiuios Aires, although it ??as not no
ticed by the inhabitants. Volcanic dust
becomes liner as the distance from Its
origin increases.
In the town o( Lincoln, two hundred
miles west of here, fine ashes fell yes
terday afternoon; tire sua was obse
cured by clouds resembling a fog and
objects 700 feel away were invisible.
No alarm is fell in this section, as the
fall has not been heavy enough to do
any damage, but It is feaTUd thai live
stock in the territory to the southwest
is in danger through the ashes cover- |
ing the grazing lands. J
"Tlgp'ofTs^'ntfiTuTToTie received from ,
remote villages along the Argentine |
western border of earth shocks and
subterranean thunder, together with
the renewed falling of volcanic ash- ?
es. A correspondent telegraphing
from San Martin Delos, In the Andes

was obscured by all asfl could, while
the houses Of the village and the sur- I
rounding forests presented a curious '
aspect unaer tneir asnett blanket.
