Panic Follows Explosion in
Cleveland Store.
STARTED BY FIREWORKS
Big Storeroom Filled With Blazing
Explosives.
IRE SERIOUSLY INJURED
Loss of Life Not Known Until Two
Hours After the
Explosion.

CLEVELAND, July 3.-Six persons, five
known to be dead. while possibly score
Of others were more or less seriously in
jured as the result of an explosion of
fireworks in the S. Kreage Five and, Ter
Cent store on Ontario street today.
A panic among the hundreds of clerks
and customers followed the explosion.
Flames and smoke filed the four upper
floors of the store.
Two Of the dead girls were working at
the fireworks counter on the ground floor
This counter was situated in the center of
the store and was box shaped. The girls
were inside the Enclosure. When the ex-
plosion occurred they could not escape.
The girls dropped to the floor and sought
safety under the counter. The flying
about them.
Customers about the counter had an op-
portunity to escape. No one stopped to
save the girls. They burned to death in
this trap.
It was not known until nearly two
hours after the fire that any lives had
been lost This was made known when
the fremen began searching the building
after the flames were conquered. The
charred bodies of the girls and the
little boy were found on the first floor
and in the basement.
Explosion Startled Entire Building.
The fire was started when one of the
clerks was demonstrating one of the
pieces Of fireworks. A spark ignited the
other pieces.
The noise Of the explosion startled those
upon all of the five floors and a panic
ensued. Smoke and flames were drawn
up the stairs by the draft. A rush was
made by the panic-stricken clerks and
shoppers for the stairways and windows.
Many were trampled upon. Others tum-
bled down the stairways. Others jumped
from the second and third story windows.
Many who jumped escaped injury by
being caught in life nets held by fire
men.
This afternoon the young boy who lost
his life in the fire was identified as James
Parker. He was in the store with his
mother when the explosion occurred. The
mother escaped uninjured. None of the
bodies of the dead girls has thus far
been identified. They were evidently
smothered. as the bodies were not badly
burned.
List Of the Injured.
Following is list of the injured so far
as reported:
Belle Beerowitz. Laura Hovack, An
nette Falsher, Goldie Mannheim, Lizzie
Babes. Bertha Grunk, Carrie Babel. En-
ma Juskins. Lottie Juskins. Myrtle Kelly
Myrtle Richards. Hazel Davis.
These girls, all clerks in the store
jumped from upper story windows. Some
Of them sustained broken limbs. while
others escaped with cuts and bruises.
Henry Miller, an employe of the store
as soon as he discovered the fire. ran
hastily to the top floor and then went
down the fire escape in the rear.
At each floor Miller stopped and opened
the windows calling on the girls to
come out. He pulled many of the girls
through the windows to the fire escapes,
and In that way at least seventy-flve, he
Isays, got out.

ton witness for the coroner's office; his
son Herbert first told the newspapers Of
the poisoning. and his sister declares
that the Sattler children were guests at
the Wilson bungalow in Cornwells. TO
all Of these facts Sattler makes denial,
as also the statement that Wilson died
owing him $1,000. Just what facts Sat-

to give some aid to the detectives. Of
