CRY OF FIRE CAUSES

Children Meet Horrible Death When
Panic Occurs at Spanish Moving
Picture Show.

Bilboa, Spain.-A terrible panic was
caused here Sunday afternoon by a
cry of fire at a moving picture show.
About fifty children and others were
killed Only one woman up to a late
hour Sunday night had been found
among the dead. The nuLlDer Of in.
jured is not known, as most Of them
were taken home by friends.
The scene of the accident is large
circus, which had been converted into
a continuous cinomatograph show. As
the price Of admission was only two
cents, the building was crowded, for
the most part with women and chill

guish the flames himself without diff
ficulty, but the effect of his cry upon
the spectators was instantaneous. AL
most every one within the building
sprang up. Police and attendants were
swept away by the surging mass
which sought to fight a way to the
exit. Scores were knocked down and
trampled upon and many were
crushed to death in the passages from
the galleries and to the streets.
