children in the suburb of North
Collinwood to-day were killed by
fire, by smoke and beneath the
grinding heels of their panic
stricken playmates,
The awful tragedy occurred
this morning in the puplic school
of North Collinwood, 10 miles
east of this city. At 10 O'Clock
tonight 165 corpses were in the
morgue at Collicwood, six child
rem were still unaccounted tor
and all the hospitals and houses
Tor two miles around contained
numbers of children, some fatally
and many less seriously injured.
ALI OF the victims wore be.
tween the ages of 6 and Is years.
The school contained between
80 and 325 pupils, and OF this
entire number only about eighty
are known 10 have left the build
ing unhurt. 1t will be several
days before the exact number of
killed is known as ;he ruins may

Among the children who are now
lying in the hospitals lowering
between life and death.
The schoolhouse was Of brick,
two storiesand an attic in height.
The number of pupils was more
than normally large, and the
smaller children had been plac-
ed in the upper part of the
building. There was but one
fire escape and that was in the
rear of the building. There
were two stairways. one
leading to door ia front, and

Both Of these doors opened in
ward, and it is claimed the rear
door was locked as well.
The fire came from furnace.
When the children reached the
foot of the stairs they found the
flames close upon them, and so
swift rush was made for the
door that in an Instant tightly
packed mass of children was
piled up against it. From that
second none of those who were
upon any portion OF the first
flight of stairs had chance for
their lives. The children at the
foot of the stairs attempted to
fl ght lheir way back to the floor
above, while those who were
coming down showed them mer-
cilessly back into the flames be-
low. In an instant there was
frightful panic with two hun
dred of the pupils fighting Tor
their lives. Most of those who
were killed died here. The great
er part of those who escaped
managed to turn back and reach

dows in the rear.
