TEN I.IVK8 SACRIFICED.
LONDON, Dec. 28.—A theater in Gatea Head, county Durham, Saturday night was the scene of a frightful panic, in which, according to the reports received here, at least ten persons, including nine children, were killed outright and many injured. The sight of a slight blaze caused by a man in the audience dropping alighted match on the sawdust-covered floor caused some one to start the cry of fire and a terrible panic ensued. 9Ind Rush for Life.
There was a mad rush for the doors, which, owing to the savage crush and struggle, became so blocked that only a few succeeded at once in getting out. There was an especially violent rush for the staircase leading from the gallery. The passage giving access to this staircase became blocked almost at once with persons who were striving their utmost to escape when the staircase itself was filled with a struggling mass of humanity from the top landing all the way to the outlet. A check taker was killed in the midst of his heroic efforts to save other lives. In trying to restrain the crowd in its mad behavior he was thrown to the floor and crushed to death beneath the feet of the panicstricken people.
Nino Children Killed.
When the panic had subsided so that an examination of the premises could be made the bodies of nine childen, whose lives had been literally crushed out, were found lying on the staircase or near a door leading to it.
Tried to Restrain the Mad Crowd. The performance which was so terribly interrupted was the second one of Saturday, the atiraetfon being the pantonine '"Ahiddin.The theater was literally crammed with people. At 10:S0 (/clock the shout of
Fire" W3: raised. The audience rose to their feet en masse and there was dire confusion, in the midst of which were heard the shrieks of women, many of whom fainted. The lessee of the house then displayed most creditable presence of mind. Stepping on the stage he .'shouted to the audience. beseeching them to remain seated and solemnly asBur ing them that there was no real danger if they would do so. At this juncture many others of the men present also showed lhat they retained their pres ence of mind by forcibly striving to restrain the mad rush of the crowd for the doors, but their brave efforts proved o£ no avail. l'atul I.eiul in tlio Stairs.
It was a sudden bend in the gallery staircase that cased the fearful jam in that exit. People who had fallen and were l.yinf iu iieaps here, screamiug and groaning, were trampled upon. At last so many of the struggling people had fallen that all passage for exit was effectually blocked by a mass of writhing human beings and those still remaining on their feet were forced to seek other means of escape.
How a Huby was .Savotl.
A baby which had been dragged from its mother's arms in the crush was saved by a man who, unable himself to gain the door, shouted to another man who was near the exit, and motioned that he would throw the child down from the top of the stairs if the other would catch it. The man below braced himself and held up hi3 arms, and the baby went sailing over the heads of the crowd and was safely caught and soon borne out of danger.
The Fire Extinguished.
Meanwhile the fire vras easily quenched. The police sought medical aid and assisted in extricating the victims from the staircase—a matter of the utmost difficulty. One child, after calling out piteously, "Save me! save me!" died before if. could be reached. The corpses were laid in an adjoining building and the injured were taken to the hospitals. 1 delltilied the Dead.*
The news of the disaster spread rapidly and soon thousands of frantic people were rusbing to the scene to ascertain the fate of relatives or friends. Within .a few hours all or the dead wero 'dentified. All were between the ageo tit
IS and 10. The loia-e of the theater says that the alarm of fire originated from the act of a boy in dropping a lighted match in a crevice ihled witii waste paper and other rubbish, in his search for a lost penny, lie also said that two pails of water suiiiced to cjueneb the fire.

The Popular Irish Actor Will ]'robiiiI Appear oil the Ktage No More. NEW YORK, Dee. 28.—The condition of William .1. Seanlan, the actor, remains practically unchanged. Sunday the demented actors manager, August 1'itou, caused Seanlan to be removed from his apartments at the Hotel Imperial to his own residence, 129 West Ninety-fifth street. IJe has canceled all engagements for the season and disbanded the company, as he believes the actor's mind is hopelessly wrecked. He is a victim of paresis.

EAGER FOR STATEHOOD.
Four Territories Are at the Door—Bills Will B« Introduced for the Admlsslm of Arizona, Mew Mexico, Utah and Oklahoma.
WASHINGTON, Dec. 28.—Among the measures to be presented in the house soon after it reassembles in January are bills for the admission of four of the territories Btill remaining out of the union. These territories are Arizona, New Mexico, Utah and Oklahoma, and their claims for statehood will be urgently pressed, not only by their respective delegates, but by committees of representative citizens, who are expected here for that purpose.
Arizona and New Mexico have been applicants for admission since the Forty-ninth congress, bul their applications have been repeatedly denied on the ground that the population of each was not sufficient to warrant a state form of government.
Oklahoma is very much in earnest, although less than two years old. A delegation froi I the new territory is already here, and as soon as a bill for statehood can be introduced additional representatives will come to the capital to strive with congress. As soon as all the Indian lands now purchased are opened to settlement the area of the territory will be about equal to that of Ohio. The population, it is claimed, is already as great as that of Arizona, New Mexico or Idaho.

WATBBTOIVS, Wis., Dec. 28.—Saturday morning fire destroyed 820,000 worth of property at Johnson's Creek, 8 miles south of this city, including three store buildings, two saloons, one office building, one residence and the contents of all. It is supposed to have been of incendiary origin*
Cotton Hurned.
ST. Louis, Dec. 28.—Sixteen hundred bales of cetton were destroyed by fire Sunday night in the railroad yards at the foot of Rutga street. The loss estimated at $50,000.
Utah is not expected to make a vigorous fight. The political situation in that territory is so badly nixed that it Is difficult to predict what the complexion of the prospective state might be. Furthermore, the eradication of poly' pamy has not been fully completed. Utah will join the other territories in the effort to attain statehood, but her success is more doubtful than that of all the rest. The committee on territories will have to listen to the several applicants as usual, but present indications are that many deaf ears will-be turned to their entreaties.
FOUR PERISHED BY FIRE.
Ter-
A Southern Family Wiped Out In rible and Mysterious Manner. GOLDSBORO, N. C., Dec. 28.—Thursday night the country residence of Col. William Pearsall, a prosperous farmer who lived 6 miles from here, was burned to the ground. The neighbors discovered when they reached the burning building that all the lower doors and windows were closed.
Screams for help were heard from the second story, and the figure of Col. Pearsall, nearly obscured by smoke and flames, was seen, but for a moment. The roof fell in and his cries were forever hushed. Friday morning the ruins of the building were searched and a ghastly discovery was made. In the debris were found the charred skeletons of Pearsall, his wife and two children. It was evident that the man was striving to save his children, as their skeletons were on either side of his.
The general belief here is that the house was set on fire by some enemy of Pearsall who was known to have in his house a considerable sum of money, and it is believed that he and his family were murdered, and that the murderer, to conceal the crime, set fire to the house. Pearsall was a very prominent man in the county,and a pood deal of excitement was caused by the tragic death of his entire family. One theory of the tragedy is that the murder must have been committed by some of the colored people on the plantation who desired to go west. This is the season when they go by hundreds.
FELL SIXTY FEET.
Jadg?e McClain'fc Mangled Hotly 1'oand at St» fTosopli, MOm in an Open Court* ST. Josni'H, Mo., Dec. 28.—Judge George \V.

That was the last seen of him until Saturday morning, when his mangled body was discovered lying oh the ground in an open court in the oenter of the courthouse. The head was crushed in, the legs and arms broken and the neck dislocated. It is supposed that the unfortunate man entered a small walk at the top of the high wall surrounding the court and, losing his balance, fell over, dropping a distance of 60 feet He was a warm personal friend of Gen. John C. Fremont.
