a continuous cinematograph show.
As tbn price of admlnioa was only
two cents the building was crowded

irlth women and children.
Tbe operator of the machine lost
his nerve wbei^ a- film ignited sad

difficulty but the effect of his cry
upon audience was Instantaneous.
Almost everyone In . .(he bull din?
sprang up. Police and attendants
were powerless to control the panic
Stricken people and were swept away
by the surging mass which sought to
light a way to the exit.
Scores were knocked down and
trampled and many were crushed to
death In the passages from the galleries
and to the streets. The disaster
caused frenzied citizens to gather
outside the building and the authorities
had great difficulty in carrying
on.'the work of rescue sad sstricatisg
