PHILADELPHIA, Oct. 81.
A false alarm Of fire was raised last night in
the Chinese theatre at San Francisco. This
caused a panic. The house was crowded, and In
the general rush which was made to the doors
many persons were trampled upon. The police
dragged out 20 dead and about 10 wounded.
The Chinese refused to give any assistance,
and the actors continued to play until they
were stopped by the police.

TIE ARMISTICE.
BELGRADE, Nov. l..
suppose il will be no news to you to state
that an Armistics for two months has been
agreed to, and, after the statements contained
10 several Of my recent letters, it is hardly
necessary to say that the Servians are rejoicing
at It.. Nothing could have given them more
satisfaction. The levy of Old and young to
which l referred in my letter Of yesterday has
been c~Ountermanded. We hear that the Turks
have entered Alexlnatz and Kruchovata, and
that the latter town is in flames, All is as
quiet as the grave here.
From accounts which have reached Belgrade,
there seems every reason 30 believe that the
Porte will have accepted the Armistioe without
any threat of 8 rupture OF diplomatic relations
on the part Of Russia but the SerVian Govern
ment has thought fit to placard the walls of
this oity With an announcement that such a
tAreat was made by General Ignatief. The
idea In this, of course, Is to convey to the vain
bervian mind that ServlG has been able to
Impose terms on Turkey. The fact that the
Armistics has been agreed to by the Porte
has nos yet been officially announced but In
the communication on the subject which has
been received from Russian sources no mention
Is made about the condition rendering the
Armlstioe renewable for nerfOdS of six waaks.
