PARIS, May 5.-Sorrow has entered the
homes of many of the most prominent fami-
lies of this city. The terrible fire at the
Grand Bazaar de Charlie a temporary
wooden structure about one hundred yards
long and sixty yards wide erected in the
Rue Jean Coujon for the annual charity
fair of which all the most prominent soci-
ETY. ladies of Paris are patronesses has
thrown the French capital into mourning.
The fire. which, as stated yesterday, broke
out shortly after 4 O'Clock Tuesday after
noon in the kfnematograph booth, near the
stall of the Duchess Dues, while from
1000 to 1,5OO people were present,
caused the loss of over one hundred lives.
At o'clock this evening the police officials
announced that ninety-four corpses had
been positively identified There are nine
teen bodies still unidentified among which
must be those of the Comtesse de Lupe
and Nine. Nitots second daughter, both of
whom are missing.
During the afternoon the body of the
Duchesse dAlencon was identified. The
duchesse was the sister Of the Empress
of Austria and of the wife of Prince Fer
dinand of Orleans. She was a duchesse of
Bavaria, and was born in 1S47 and married
in 1868 Her daughter, Princess Louise, is
and her son, Prince Philippe, is the husband
of Princess Henrette of Belgium. The
former Queen of Naples is one of her sis
ters. The duchesse was a woman of great
wealth and one of the most prominent la
dies of France. The remains of the duch-
esse were identife4 by her dentist, who ex-
amined the teeth of a charred body which
was believed to be hers Among the articles
picked up in the ruins was a ring inscribed
Ferdinand 'Qrdino-Sophie de Baviaro,"
the names OF the Duke and Duchesse
d dAlencDn, doubtless the betrothal ring of
her Highness, the Duchesse d'Alencon. A
silver watch attached to a gold brooch was
also identified as the property of the
duchesse. Up to daybreak the Due d'Alen-
con refused to quit the scene, and only
went home because he was physically in
capable of further eXertion. The Queen
of Naples and other relatives of the miss
ing duchesse sat up all night long at the
hotel of the Duo dAlencon, on the Avenue
F'redland, awaiting news
