MADRID, September 24.-Approxi-
mately one hundred and twenty persons
were officially estimated today to have
been trapped and persisted in the
Novedades Theater, when it caught fire
during a crowded Sunday evening per-
Torrance. The injured were estimated
at more than three hundred and fifty.
Exact figures have not been established
because dense smoke coming from the
smouldering ruins prevented the au-
thorities from learning how many
bodies were yet to be extricated.
Most of the victims were not burned,
but were either suffocated or crushed
during the stampede for the exits.
Bodies were being taken from some
sections of the ruins this morning and
soldiers with fixed bayonets kept back
a large crowd of anguished persons who
clamored for news Of relatives ana
friends.
Doctors Work All Night.
A family in Chambery. a suburb, re-
ported 10 members missing. but 1t was
believed that they might have passed
the night with friends. Doctors worked
all night in the hospitals and dressing
stations.
The blaze started during a storm
scene on the stage. The theater.
which is one of the largest in Madrid,
held 1000 persons and it was crowded
to capacity for a performance of La
Mejor del Puerto"
Electrical sparks ignited the ropes Of
part of the scenery and the flames
spread rapidly to other parts of the
stage setting.

MRS. VAN Wrinkle
MAY PUNISH FOE
Detention House Neighbor
Abusive Toward Prisoners,
She Declares.

Undaunted by numerous vociferous
attacks aimed at her new House of
Detention. 908 B street. by the resi-
dents of Southwest Washington, Lieut..
Nina C. Van Wrinkle, chief of the
Woman's Bureau, is considering draS-
tic punitive measures of reprisal against
one of her new neighborS who is max
ing herself extremely Objectionable"
lone of the neighbors here has been
talking to the prisoners in such an
Objectionable manner" Mrs. Van Wrinkle
declared, that I am thinking Of taking
steps to curb her tongue.
"She persists in speaking to the in
mates here in an abusive manner. and
in my opinion, she is worse than the
prisoners"
Mrs. Van Wrinkle did not name the
woman in question.
Work Of Finishing Progresses.
Nearly three entire floors of the
former apartment house have been fin
ished and the building is almost ready
for occupancy, she said. Only two
prisoners are being held at the new
building now, Mrs. Van Wrinkle said. but
she hopes to move all of them in at
an early date.
Additional protests were made against

the Woman'S Bureau yesterday. when
the congregation of the Fifth Baptist
Church, SiXth-and-a-half and E streets
southwest, passed resolutions appeal
ing to the District Commissioners tc
halt the proceedings.
The position of the congregation was
explained by Rev. John E. Briggs, pas
tor. as follows:
I'VE do not desire to sling any mud
but we do think this establishment is
strictly against our interests. as 1t has
been located in one of our best residen-
tial sections.
Attracts Boys of Neighborhood.
Little boys have been observed play
ing around this house and identifying
the girls who are inmates by the color
of the dresses they wear and discussing
them with each other.
I'm my opinion, the situation will be
intolerable."
Injunction proceedings brought by
residents of the vicinity against the
detention home probably will be an
swered by the District today or tomor-
row. Corporation Counsel William w.
Bride has stated.
w. K. WimSatt, who has been among
the leaders of the opposition, said he
and his supporters would make a stren-
uous fight for their injunction when
the case comes before the court.

Persistent mention Of the United
States in connection with the two big
European problems, war payments and
disarmament, marked recent news dis
patches from abroad.
In the one case the proposed evacua-
ton of the Rhineland by allied troops
was linked with reparation payments
by Germany and with war debts owed
by the various European nations to
each other and to this country.
In the other the program for future
disarmament conferences was made
contingent upon word from Washington
respecting the officially concealed but
generally known Franco British naval
accord.
Germany has been struggling to have
its reparation total treated as an indi-
vidual problem, distinct from evacua-
ton of the Rhineland. She has MAIN
tanned also that neither should be
mixed up with European debts to the
United States.
Support for this position, so far as
reparationS and allied debts are con-
cerned, has come from Great Britain.
and the French government has let it
be known that 1t recognizes that WASH
ington would not consent to making
French debt payments contingent upon
amounts which that country receives
from across the Rhine.
Britain's Position Outlined.
Lord Cushendun said that Great
Britain would not agree to any appeal
to the United States for remission of
debts, but neither would she agree to
any liquidation of debts due the British
treasury which would mean she would
than she must pay to the United States

Britain, France. Italy, Belgium, Ger

SAN FRANCISCO, September "a
With fleet of airplanes and thou
sands of men combating California S
post-season forest fires, officials believe
today that most of the CONGREGATIONS
which have cost four lives and swept
nearly 100000 acres in the past few
days have been checked.
A force of $500 men, including 500
Marines and sailors, was employed In
southern California. Airplanes secuted
the forest for strategic points to estab-
lish fire lines.
Three Men Killed.
Three men were killed when the gaso.
line tank on a truck in which they were
riding exploded after becoming over
heated from the flames which they hac
planned to fight. A rancher died iron

Blazes in the Palomar, Cuyamaca anC
Potre-o districts of San Diego County
were checked somewhat last night, al.
though they still burned f1ercely. The
Palomar fire was the worst, having
swept Up Aguanga Mountain toWare
the northwest, and invaded the slopes
of Palomar Mountain proper. Favor.
able winds, however, enabled the fire
fighters to halt the flames before the!
crossed the peak into heavily wooded
districts.
Another fire ragged near Boulder
Creek. west of the Cuyamaca Ranch
The flames swept within four miles o
The ranch, but were held there by :
change in the wind. Reports last nigh
said the fire was burning southwark.
Reported Under Control.
Fires in the Witch Creek, SAINT;
Ysabel and Ramona districts were re
ported under control last night. Sal
Diego County's fires were estimated t
have burned over total of 10000
acres.
In the San Bernardino National For

and still was out of control. In Ven

fire had been checked on two front
and men had concentrated on the othe
danger points
