Those who had relatives or friends IN the

those in the burning building, but the heat
was so intense that for some time 1t WAS i'm

been fruitless, as they were probably suffo-
Gated before the FIRE reached them.

nine bodies were soon taken out. A number
OF persons who are known to have been In
the theatre were still missing, aad there was
scarcely doubt that their bodies would be
