Four Hundred Persons Burned to Death,

ST. PETERSBURG, Russia, January A.
During performance yesterday at the cir
Gus in Berditcheff Russian Poland, fire broke
out, and before the operators could escape the
whole structure was ablaze. Three hundred
persons persisted.
The fire broke out towards the end of the
performance, and was caused by the careless
handling of fireworks on the stage. The cur
tain ignited and the flames quickly spread to
the walls and roof. The members of the or
chestra were the first victims. The audience,
numbering 800 persons, rushed to the front
door, but it opened inwards, and as the crowd
pressed forward it could not be opened. A
rush was then made to the two side doors, both
of which were nailed up, thus compelling the
people to take to the windows, from which
many sprang into the streets with their clothes
a sheet of flame. The fire brigade arrived
within half an hour, but it was impossible TO
extinguish the flames, as the water in the tanks
was frozen.
The fire lasted TWO hours. Eye-Witnesses
state that when the doors were finally opened
a mass of burning persons was visible within.
The horses and properties of the circus were
all destroyed. The ice broke while the fire
brigade was crossing the river, thus prevent
ing them reaching the fire more promptly. It
is estimated that ninety men, one hundred
and twenty women and sixty children lost
their lives. The victims include Colonel of
Police and the Vice-President of the Berdit-
chef Bourse. The audience consisted mainly
OF Jews.
Another account says the fire was caused, oy
q groom having thrown a lighted cigarette on
the straw in the stables, setting it on fire. An
other groom tried to stamp out the fire, but q
strong draught famed the flames ami caused
them to spread. The author of the fire per
ished, also two clowns, believed 10 be English
men.
Yesterday q man whose wife and three chill
dren were among the victims stabbed the
senior member of the Merchants Guild in the
street, and then tried to cut his own throat.
The supposed murdered man abandoned the
assaflant's wife and children in order to effect
his own escape from the burning bu .lding
The circus was a wooden structure. Horses
running about wildly increased the confusion.
A still LATER account says four hundred per
IONS were sufocateds crushed OF burned to
death,

Sunk at Sea.

LONDON, ENG, January q.
The steamer Cimbria, from Hamburg for
New York was sunk in the German ocean by
q collision with the Sultan on Friday night.
Details of the disaster show that the loss
of life must have been fearful. A dispatch
from Hamburg, sent by the Hamburg Ameri-
can Steamship Company, says so far fifty six
persons from the Cimbria have been landed.
A number of them are at Meser light house.
The names of these are not yet ascertained.
The CimbIia left Hamburg on Thursday
with $50 passengers and a crew numbering
10. She ran aground before leaving the EIbe,
but got off with the flood tide, with the assist
ance of the steamer HaDsa, without damage,
and she put to sea at 2 80 in the afternoon.
Friday morning she came into collision dur
ing thick fog, off Borlxam with the steamer
Sultan. The Cimbria sank in short time.
When the boat with thirty nine passengers
arrived the company sent out the steamer
Hansa and the four largest available steam
ers at Coxhaven to search for the other boats
of the Cfmbria. The West India steamer Ba-
varia also left during the night with sim
liar object. The steamer Sultan which suf-
fered heavy damage in the collision, has ar
rived in the EIbe.
The Cimbria sustained such severe injuries
in the collision that it at once became ap-
parent she must sink. Almost Immediately
the officers therefore, did all in their power
to save lives. Without a moments loss of
time the life belts were distributed among the
passengers and the order was given to lower
the boats. This, however, in consequence OF
the vessels Keeling over on her side, was
found to be very difficult on one side and abb
solutely impossible on the other.
As the second officer was still engaged cut
ting the spars loose, so there would be as
much driftwood as possible for the people to
cling to when the inevitable laundering
should occur, the vessel went down under mis-
feet. He seized a spar, but as several other
persons chung to it was obliged to let go. He
swan to a boat. This boat was subsequently
picked up by the Theta. Seventeen other
persons have been saved by the steamer DIa-
mant from the Weser lighthouse, making
fifty six thus far known to be rescued.
A reporter boarded the Sultan, but both
captains and crew absolutely refused to give
him any information. The captain has made
a statement before the British Consul, but this
| is inaccessible. The Sultan has a large hole
in her bow seven feet above the water line.
The number of lives lost is estimated as
fully 800. The passengers were mostly
emigrants from East Prussia. Among
/ them were six American Indians who had
been on exhibition in Berlin for some
time.
The Chippewa Indians would have left by
! an earlier steamer but for the illness of one
of their party, which delayed their embarka-
ton.
The Hamburg-American company has been
very prompt to afford information regarding
the Cimbria disaster. Beside thirty nine sur
vivors at Coxhaven and seventeen at WeseI
| Light house. another vessel landed eleven
but the names Of these eleven are not yei
