Vesuvius Eruption and Naples Bay Damage

An eruption of Vesuvius, accompanied by a cloudburst, wrought considerable damage in Naples Bay and on the slopes of the mountain on the night of October 23. The government has sent three battle-ships and four cruisers with provisions and medical assistance to Ischia, where it is reported two hundred persons have drowned in a seismic wave.
