The village of Oekoerito and the
adjacent districts have been thrown
into mourning by "A terrible disaster
at the former place last night which
resulted In the death of between 800
ana 400 persons ana the serious injury
of 100 others. A public ball was an

the coach house had been fitted up

the occasion. other decorations and
Chinese lanterns. The festivity at
tracted pleasure seekers from all the
surrounding country and the building
was so packed. just before the ball
commenced. that the single door that
afforded entrance and exit was nailed
up to prevent the admlttance of scores
who clamored outside.
While the dancing was In full swing
pine branch caught fire and fell To
the floor. ard almost Instantly the
dresses Of several women burst into
flames. The fire spread rapidly. a
dreadful panic ensued tho revelcrs
losing their heads completely. Many
of them. with flames shooting out
from their garments, rushed toward
the barred exit. where "a surging mass
was jammed together.
Women and men fell and were
trampled under foot. Those In front
valnly endeavored to tear open the
door, but were crushed by the pres
ence OF the crowd behind.
Soon the roof crashed in. the blaz-
ing wreckage falling on the helpless
victims. so that many of those who
had hitherto escaped the flames were
struck down by beams or buried under
debris.
When the door was finally broken
open some few persons escaped. but
most OF these collapsed before they
got far Inside the building were
heaps of oharred corpses. Screams
and groans were still audible from the
smoking piles A detachment of
troops was ordered to the scene to
clear the wreckage and help bury the
dead.
The official estimate as given to-
night states that 290 persons perished
but II Is believed the total death roll

many persons have not been accounted
