VIENNA, Dec. 9.-The theatre
fire was much more disastrous
than at first reported. 1t Is now
feared that not many less than one
thousand perIshed. 1t Ia probable
there were six hundred in the
fourth gallery, the doors of which
opened inward, making escape i'm
possible. The passages and stair
ways are very narrow. The build
ing is described as a perfect death
trap. The flames filled the audlto-
rum almost instantly, bursting
from the stage in a vast sheet and
rolling over the heads of the audi
ence. Many bodies were found
with their heads burned off, show
ing that the fire had swept down
on the top of q densely packed
mass OF bodies. Many appear to
have died from sutf5cati0p; while
humble bear such terrible eviden-
ces of a struggle for life as
skulls crushed, limbs distorted and
broken, arms torn from the body
and bowels protruding. The fire
department proved totally'ineffi-
Client to check the flames, although
the Life Saving Brigade did some
service with ladders apd nets.
Much money Ia being subscribed
for the benefit of tue sufferers.
Newspapers demand An inspection
and, II necessary, a remodelling OF
all theatres before any more per-
formances are allowed; claiming
that the alleged periodical exami-
nations of the police are perfect
farce.
