A TERRIBLE JAM.
Nearly 200 Children Crushed to
Death i'm a Public Hall i'm
England.
Children Killed i'm n Panic.

LONDON, June 16.-A terrible calam-
ity involving the death of IT'S chill
dren occurred in Sunderland, county
of Durham, this evening. From de-
tails received it appears that an enter
tainment was given at Victoria hall
by conjurer, attended almost alto
gether by children, several thousand
being in attendance. The accident
occurred at the close OF the perform
ance. The body of the hall had been
entirely cleared of occupants, when
some 200 of the little ones came rush.
ing down stairs from the gallery. At
the top of the first flight of stairs was
Il door which only opened twenty
inches, and thus but one child WAS
permitted to pass through at Il time.
At this point, while the mass of chill
dren were pushing forward, one of
them fell and was unable to rise, owing
to the others crowding. The result
was great number were pushed down
trampled Oh and suttocated. The scene
was terrible No effort could stop the
mad fury of the frightened children.
They came on pell nell, though
strangely without much shouting, and
soon lis were Knocked down and suf-
focated to death 10y others trampling
upon them. The greater number of
bodies, which were badly mangled
from trampling, laid seven or eight
deep. Many victims and others who
We're not killed had the clothing torn
from their bodies, aud this together
with the bleeding bodies Of the unfor-
mates, shows the terrible nature of the
struggle. The ages of the 17S children
known to have been killed ranged
from four to fourteen years. The eX-
element in town, when the news of
the disaster spread, was terrific. Great |
crowds rushed to the scene until 90 |
900 persons surrounded the hall. The |
feeling was so intense that the author
tiles ordered out the SiXty-eighth in
fantry to preserve order. The work of |
getting out bodies began Immediately. |
They were laid out in the halls. The |
parents of those killed were admitted |
to identify the bodies Of their children. |
Most heartrending scenes transpired |
while identification was in progress.
The mothers of dead children con-
stantly uttered shrieks and many |
tainted on discovering the bodies of
their little ones.
