The Fall River Disaster

A fearful calamity occurred at Fall
River, Mass, early on Saturday
morning last. A large new cotton
mill was burned, twenty.thrce persons
were killed and thirty-four wounded.
The terrible scene adds another to the
list of catastrophes that haye occurred
during the year. The Journal, in an
editorial on the disaster, says:
We give all the facts that have
thus far come to hand regarding this
deplorable event, which IN some re.
spects recalls the Pemberton Mills
calamity. There appears to be no
question that the fire broke out in the
fourth story from an unoied band in
the mule spinning room, and, from
the quantity Of oil saturating all the
wood w0rl; about, and Of combnstible
material lying round, it spread with
extreme rapidity. Above were the
fifth and the attic stories, reached BY
a common tower. Up that the 1amss
spread, as through a chimney, and
quickly communicated with the in
flammable material and rolled out
with their masses Of bewildering and
terrifying smoke in the faces Of the
operatives, who were mostly girls and
children. 1t appears that there was
time, if it had been promptly used,
for those in the fourth and fifth stories
ut least to have escaped down the
tower. There were also four exterior
tire escapes reaching th' end windows
of the main stories, but nothing Of
the kind, unhappily, for the attic story,
where th:re were about fifty employ
ees.
1t is by no means certain no" ever,
whether any greater facilities for es-
cape would have been awaited of under
the circumstances. A panic took
possession OF the poor creatures, and
such facilities as apparently were
right before their eyes and were
urged upon them, were neglected
