Scene Bessars Description.

The scene that followed beggars de-
scription. The successive explosions
had heated the air to such an extent
that before the third explosion many
were rendered unconscious by the ex-
IRENE heat and the gaseous fumes, and
were being carried away when the tor
rents of flames swept over the excited
crowd.
Victims Frenzied.
There was an awful hush for a mo-
ment, then followed scene of frenzy.
Men and women, their clothing ablaze,
their faces scorched and blistered and
their hair burned off their heads, ran
wildly shrieking, hither and thither,
only intent on escape from that awful
furnace of fire.
