/. VIENNA, December 10.-The estimated
loss of life is 720. Many of the bodies
are so horribly burned as to be beyond
Identification, and they were buried en-
masse Sunday. The attitudes of the
dead were of the strangest character.
Some men were found grasping each
other by their thrOats, the nails Of their
fingers being imbedded in the flesh;
some inflicted self-mOrtal wounds, while
children were found in the pit that had
been thrown from the galleries by their
frantic mothers. All of the performers
were saved except three girls, who be
lOnged to the chorus. The Emperor and
Empress have subscribed 1000 flOrins for
the relief Of the distressed. Many sui
cides have been caused at the loss of
relatives and friends in the fire. The
number reported by the police as miss
ing is 1876. The fourth gallery has not
yet been explored, as it has been found
impossible, owing to the fire which
still RACES. But it is seen to be crowded
with bodies.

HORRIBLE CASUALTY.
Old Story of Carelessness With
q Kerosene Lamp.

PITTSBURGH, December 1O.-AbOut 3:45
this morning the boarding shanty Oc-
cupied by the labOrers ON the Pittsburgh
& Lake Erie Railroad at Rock Cut, about
seven miles below this city, was burned
to the ground. Ten persons perished in
the flames. The shanty was kept by a
man named McCune. The structure was
a rough affair, thrown up in a hurry,
merely to meet temporary wants. The
second story was used for sleeping pur-
poses. The lower story on the ground
floor was occupied by the women, of
which there were three in the party.
At the hour above mentioned Mrs. Nc
Cune arose for thel purpose of getting
breakfast for the bOarders, and by some
means a kerosene lamp was overturned
and the inhammable liquid thrown all
over the kitchen. 1t ignited, and in the
space of few seconds the whole struc-
ture was ablaze, and the flames licked
up the rough pines as if it were tinder.
Mrs. McCune rushed out of the building
and yelled as loud as she could to arose
the inmates, which she succeeded in
doing, but too late for a number of the
unfortunate men to get out alive. The
smoke that filled tie building was a
serious obstacle, no doubt many of the
sleeping occupants being smOthered and
therefore past help of saving themselves.
At each end of the room was window,
and number of those who escaped did
so by jumping to the ground. Besides
those taken out dead, four others will
probably die. .-.
