LONDON, June 16.-A dreadful calamity,
involving the death Of 17s children. occurred
in the town OF Sunderland. in the county Of
Durham. this evening. 1t socms that an en-
tertainment had been given in Victoria Hall by
a conjuror. which was attended almost alto
gether by children. to the number OF several
thousand. The accident occurred at the close
OF the performance. After the body OF the hall
had been entirely cleared Of It's occupants some
twelve hundred OF the little ones came
rushing down stairs from the gallery. At the
top OF the first flight Of stairs there was door
which opened only twenty inches. and one
child only was permitted to pass through at Q
time. At this point. while the mass Of children
were pushing forward. some Of them fell and
were unable to rise. owing to the others
crowding on. The result was that great
number wero pushed down. trampled on.
and either suffocated or crushed to
death. The scene was terrible. and no
effort could stop the mad rush OF the
affrighted children. They came on pell nell.
though strangely without much shouting. and
soon 178 OF them were knocked down and
killed by others tramplinR upon them. The
greater number Of the bodies. which were
badly mangled from the trampling. laid seven
| or eight deep. Many OF the victims and others
who were not killed had their clothing torn
from their bodies in tho struggle. The ages Of
the ITS children known to have been killed
ranged from 20 IA years.
Whom the news OF the disaster Ind spread
through the town great crowds OF people has
tened to tho scene until at least 20 1000 persons
surrounded the hall. The feeling was SO in
| tense that the authorities ordered out the Six
ty-eighth Infantry to preserve order The
| work OF getting out the bodies OF the victims
IN the ESIi and the PARENTS OF those Killed were
admitted for the purpose OF identifying the
bodies Of their children. The most heartrond-
cation was in progress. The mothers OF the
dead children constantly uttered piercing
