Paris Bazaar Fire Attracts Duchess D'Uzes Death Toll Unknown
A crowded charitable bazaar in Rue Jean Gougon Paris caught fire at about 4 pm. Between 1500 and 1800 people were inside when the blaze began causing a panicked crush at the exits. Thousands fled, many trampled and crushed. One hundred corpses laid out at the Palais de Industrie with more feared beneath the ruins. The flimsy structure and single exit worsened the disaster. Notables present included Duchess d'Uzes and other patronesses as the prefect M Lepine supervised rescue efforts. The death toll and injured count were not yet determined.
