trampled by the stronger. The men did
not hesitate to push the women aside
and when they reached the second story
instead of waiting for the ladders to be
raised pushed the women off TO the
ground, about Is feet and leaped
themselves. In this way many women
were more or less injured. The worst
scenes, however, were on the stairways
