The Panic Stricken People
Blocked Exits and We're
Burned to Crisp

Mexico City, Feb. Is. Betwee'r. s 25o 80
and 800 people were burned to death
and many injured in a FIRE which de-
stroyed the Flores theater in the city
of Acapuco last night. The news of
the disaster reached the: capital this
afternoon, telegraphic communication
with Acapulco having been destroyed
last night when the telegraph office ad-
joining the theater wa sburned. ss
The Flores theater K was a wooden
structure and last night over / 900 peo-
pie went into it to witness special
performance given in honor of Cover
nor Damian Flores of the state of G,ler-
zero, who was visiting the city at the
time. One Of the numbers of the pro-
gram consisted of series of moving
pictures While the operator was :ex-
hibiting these, film caught fire and the
blaze quickly spread to some bunting
used for decorative purposes.
In an incredibly short time the flames
spread to all parts of the structure.
There were but three narrow exits and
the panic-stricken audience rushed to
them, many persons falling, to be
crushed to death, their bodies choking
the way of escape. .f- sa...
The > screams of those, imprisoned
were terrifying: Owing to the rapidity
with which the fire spread and its In
tense heat, it was impossible to at
tempt rescue work and those irnprison-
ed were literally roasted alive, as the
fire burned with little smoke and few
were suffocated.
The efforts of the fire department
were confined to attempting to save the
adjoining buildings and the firemen sue
ceeded so well that the property loss
was small The telegraph office, post
office and custom house were damaged,
but all of the government records and
registered mail are saved.
Today pitifu lscenes OF grief were
witnessed On the streets. Men, women
and children wandered from place to
place hunting for relatives or friends.
Many of the dead are from the first
families of the state. the affair at the
theater being a social event of consld-
cradle importance and calling out the
wealthiest families for miles around. In
some instances whole families were
wiped out of existence.
The municipal authorities today caus-
ed large trenches to be dug and into
these the bodies of the dead were laid
as identification of the dead was I'M
possible, the bodies having been burned
ir mos! cases to a crisp.
Telegrams sent to the American con-
sui at Acapulco by the Associated
Press asking for the names of the
American dead have not been received
Acapulco, on the west coast of the
state of Guerrero, is one of the three
important ports of the Pacific coast of
Mexico Nearly all of the steamer
lines make it port of coal and the har-
Dor is accounted the best in Mexico.
