LONDON, Jan. 1.-[Special}-Fu
particulars received to-dayfrom Wortlev..
near Leeds, show that the terrible scenes
witnessed at tho school fete were in no.
way exaggerated. The the cause of the
disaster was not the falling of the string
of Chinese lanterns, as at first supposed.
The school fete referred to CHARITY
bazaar held undcr the auspices OF the
parish OF Wortlcy. The building used
for tho fete was a church, the school nd
joining Wortley church.
Fart OF tho programme OF the bazaar'a
attractlons was series OF tableaux
wants in which q number OF Young
girls and boys at tho parish took part.
For this display a small stage was
erected in tho school room, and to the
right OF tho stage and opening upon it,
was room used as dressing room or
green room by the children
inside this dressing-room, just before
tho disaster, crowd of joyous children
were gathered; all tho girls of tho party
bolng in light gauzy attire and many Of
them covered in addition with cotton,
used to represent snow. In addition
several OF tho children carried, dangling
on Sticks above their heads, lighted
Chinese lanterns.
Iho tableauX vivnnt. then preparing.

denly shricks OF terror issued from tho
little room, and all were horror stricken

and and smothcrcd tho flames. Up 70
tho present there are four deathsS. re-

An investigation into the cause of
the disaster shows that while the ohff-
dien gathered in tho dressing room
preparatory to making their appearance
on tho stage, ono OF tho little girls who
was playing with u lighted lamp acct
IDENTIFY set tirc to her clothes. She at
tered 4 cry OF terror, tried to extinguish
tho flames with her hands and rushed
towards tho door leading to the
stage. Her cry and the sight OF tho
laneS caused panic among tho other
children who also made Il rush for the
door mentioned. Tho result was that
the crcwd'of children crushed nrouud
the child whose clothes were already in
flames and thereby ignited the clothing
of twenty or thirty other children.
