ANOTHER ERATHQUAKE PERIOD.
PREDICTED BY MR STEVENSON. By Telegraph—Press Association. AUCKLAND, April 16. Another earthquake period is predicted by Mr J. T. Stevpson, F.R.A.S, of Auckland, who fixes the time as between the 18th inst. (Sunday next) and 24th inst. "I expect greatly increased activity during next week," he said, "and have very little doubt but that Ngauruhoe will be more active. If that volcano were nearer the sea coast I think there would be a far bigger upheaval." Mr Stevenson was greatly interested in the eruption of Mount Erebus, in the Antarctic, as described by Professor David. It appears that the outbreak in question happened precisely at the time when the moun was nearest to the earth.
