An Awful Sight Met Their
Eyes When 1t Was Broken
In.
Bodies Of 1875 Women and Ten
Men Taken From the
Building.

ST. PETERSBURG, June 2l.-While tho
ancient churnh of Romano, at Berisog-
lebsk, on the Volga, was crowded with
pilgrims from all parts of Yarestav, who
had come to take part in the an
nual church procession, panic was
caused by false alarm of fire which
had been raised by thieves IN order to
facilitate their operations. When the
firemen arrived in answer to the
tolling of an alarm by the sexton
OF the church they found the door
locked. Breaking 1t in, they witnessed
fearful sight. In the mad rush for
the exit hundreds had been knocked
down and trampled upon, while others
had been suffocated by the pressure of
the great throng of terror.stricken
people. The bodies of l26 women and
10 men were taken from the church.
Nor was this the total number of VIC
tins. as several other persons had been
killed and twenty fatally injured by
leaping from windows thirty feet from
the ground.

1:25 this morning. Ae passed away
peacefully at his residence in Palo Alto.
Gov. Stanford was in the best of spirits
yesterday. He took drive around his
stock farm and seemed as well as ever.
He retired shortly after 10 o'clock. At
1:25 his old and trusted valet, Edward
Larguy, who for some time has visited
the senator's room at different times

the features relaxed, and, like his fell

speaking of the matter, said:

noble project. As to the value of his
estate, l am unable to give accurate
figures. but it will run anywhere from
$40, 10000 to sec, 600, ,000."
