From late San FRANCISCO papers we CLEAN
some additional particulars Of the recent terri
BILE calamity at a Chinese theater in that city,
brief mention OF which has been made hereto
fore. It appears that the disaster Was occa
stoned by the mating catching FIRE from a
Chinamsns cigarette. A cry Of fire was imme-
diately raised. II vas benefit night and the
gallery and auditorium were crowded 10 their
utmost capacity with fully 1900, all men.
Those in the lower and upper circles rushed for
tho door. The crowd surging from the audto-
rum broke the door down, while an i'm.
mense mass from the gallery broke down the
staircase and precipitated themselves on the
heads below. The large, heavy double doors,
twelve by ak feet were wrested off their hinges
and twenty-five or thirty men from above fell
upon them and crushed large number beneath.
1t was impossible to extricate them, and they
were trampled and mangled by the panic
stricken crowd. Nineteen were killed and
twenty wounded. In the meantime the
FIRE had been subdued, and the actors continued
the performance, which allayed the panic,
doubtless preventing many others from deetruc-
ton. The calamity occurred at midnight. Po-
hcemen iust going on their beats were attracted
By the yells and means OF the wounded and
dying. Tho news spread ali over Chinatown,
and in few minutes there was perfect babel
of confusion. The dead and wounded, horri-
bly, mangled, and blood oozing from their
mouths, eyes and noses, were ranged on the
sidewalk, while the shrieks Of men and women
mingled with their sgonzing groans.
