City of Mexico, Feb. 16.-Acapulco
with a population of seven thousand
is a city of morgues and hospitals to-
day. Six hundred escaped from the
burning theatre. Disorder reigns and
the fireTnen and police are unable to
control the situation. The suffering
is intense. Supplies of medicine are
exhausted and there are no means OF
preparing the dead for burial. A
pile of ashes marks the place where
the theatre stood.
Many victims are unidentified.
Whole families were burned to death.
Every Resident Lost Relatives.
Nearly every living resident has
lost some friend or relative in the fire.
The terrible grief of the relatives is
probably the most distressing feature
of the disaster Many women have
lost their senses.
The bodies are being handled in the
best way possible. Some remains
were burned to a crisp and are be-
ing buried in trenches.
Communication is gradually being
restored. The only wires up are be-
ing used by the government.
Medical supplies, nurses and ply
sicians are being rushed to the scene.
