Searching for the Bodies
Pitiful Scenes.
ee
THE DEATH LIST.
London, Sept. 6.
The victims of the burning of the theatre at Exeter last night were mostly working people. As soon as the flames — were extinguished a large force began searching for the bodies. The stairway leading to the gallery was packed with bodies, while at the head of the stairways there were scores of others piled one on top of the other. The unfortunate victims had evidently rushed to the door when the alarm was given, but found the stairway blocked and means of escape cut off. In a short time the flames had reached them and they suffered a horrible death.
There were pitiful scenes in the vicinity of the burned theatre this morning as the friends and relatives of the supposed vic- tims awaited the recovery of the bodies. In many cases both fathers and mothers perish- ed, and numerous children are left without means of support.
The numbers of persons severely injured is 60. It is feared that the death list will reach 140.
The search for the bodies still goes on, It is very probable that the total number of deaths will never be ascertained, owing to to the factthat many of the bodies were com- pletely calcined.
Two stalls of a stable belong to a hotel adjoining the theatre, are so filled with
anyone. Most of the killed were adults, and chiefly men.
The municipal authorities held a special meeting to-day, and arranged for the inter- ment of all the unidentified bodies.
More bedies have been taken from the ruins. The charred remains of twenty persons were discovered in one heap. From many bodies the limbs are missing, the remains showing evidence that they had been wrenched off.
A scene-shifter states that the fire origin- ated in among the gauze. The flames spread to the scenery, of which the stage was unusually iull, owing to the prepara- tions in progress for the production of a pantomime. The audience numbered 3,000.
The iron Duties. {Orrawa, Sept. 6.
The Gevernment has been furnished with copies of correspondence between various British Chambers of Commerce, respect- ing the Canadian Iron Duties. Fourteen organizations protested against the duties, as they would be detrimental to certain sections of the working classes of Great Britain.
