rrightfal Exrilotdons in Pittablugh: 11 REWORKS ,FAI Dar DESTROYED THREE pERSONIS KILLED [From the Pittsburgh Chrosulola of Jae. SO Another terrible and fatal casuaity has oc curred, one of the serieti of which have befallen Zittr community of late. This morning at a little after 10 o'clock, an explosion was heard in the building, No. 23 Smithfield street, occupied as a confeeuonery and fireworks establishment by the firm or Knabie & Schrock. The first explo sion was followed bya series of others in rapid .succession, and it become known that a quantity of fireworks in the second story of the building had ignited, and had set fire td the .building. The alarm was immediately sounded and the fire department were soon at the spot endeavoring to extinguish the flames. The entire upper portion of the building seemed to be on fire and toe rapid explosion of rockets, Iternan candies, &e., continued. After a short time some person acquainted with the affairs of the establishment announced that several per eons bad, a'short time before, been employed in the upper portion of the house v and had not been seen since the first explosion occurred. This was the first intimation that the spectators or the firemen had that any person was in peril, and immediate efforts were made to' discover and rescue those in danger. A. ladder was procured and one of the upper front w!,ndows daahed oat. The room was found to be • full of smoke, gas and flame, so that'the attempt to enter was aban doned. Nb re.sponse was heard to the calla of the per sons on the ladder and it was hoped that those who bad been emleed there had escaped by means of the bac kstairs. Mr.. John M'Etroy, Assistant Engineer of.. the Fire Department, gained access to the rear portion of the building, ascended the stairs, and in spite of the smoke and suffocating gases, entered the room where the persons,bad been employed. He had :scarcely catered the room when be stumbled over a human body,-apparently lifeless. Lifting it' and carry ing it down stairs, Mr. WELroy took it into the adjoining store and immediately re turned to the upper story; Entering the room a second time, he. discovered, sitting in the cor ner, by * window, a young woman, motionless, with her face cowering between her hands. She neither spake nor moved when he addressed her, and be lifted her also, and carried her down stairs, and, with the help of others,. over to the Engine House. Further investigation resulted in the discovery of the body of the second boy, Be also was removed through the flames and carried to the Engine House. 11; NNTIFICATIOI, All of those carried out were at first supposed to be dead, .and for a considerable time none of them were identified. At length Mr. Schrock, a inereber of the firm, who had been absent from the Place, returned and visited the young man first brought down. The face was frightfully disfigured, but Mr. Schrock recognized it as that of his son, John A.Schrock. The effect on the father may be imagined. Young Schrock had alreadygiven signs of life, and soon appeared to be suffering the most intense- agony. He was evidently delirious, although speechless, and his terrible writhings were so powerful that it re quired several men to hold him down upon the chairs on which he had been placed. His inju ries are of a frightful character. Both his eyes are burned out; his hands are partially burned off; his neck, shoulders, arms and legs are erteatly burned, and the physiciansannounce that 'ltis'injuries must necessarily prove fatal._ He can hardly survive until evening. The young woman, whose body was the second brought down, was quite dead when found. The corpse was identified eventually as that of Miss Nancy Campbell, a young woman of nineteen years, who had been employed the establish ment. She bad apparently died' by suffocation from , inhaling the gases libefated by the expla eon of the powder, as she exhibited but few signs of having been barued. Her remains lay in the upper . portion of the engine:house, and re- , ceived such attentions as were possible front several ladies who visited the place to render Etch services as they could. Tlie.last corpse found was, as we have said, that of a boy, and was also removed to the engine louse. It was identified, after a considerable time, as that of Fred. Ramsey, a boy about four- 6 teen years of age, who had been working In the catablishMent. He also probably died of suffo cation, although he showed more marks of burn- Inv' than did Miss Campbell. • The cause of the explosion cannot be definitely ascertained yet; and it hipiebablelhlififoife save the victims of the calamity could give the cor rect statement of the Matter. The three persons whose names we have mentioned were engaged Itip stairs in ricking fireworks, and it is prondute that some trifling carelessness ignited one of the vieceis thus causing the calamity. The flames caused by the explosion destroyed a large portion of the build ng. CITY BULLETIN. Le Concern CAUNIVAi..- I The bat masque season in this city was inaugurated last evening by La Coterie Carnival, which came off at the Academy of Music. Great preparations for the occasion ,had. been made by Idesers. Peter E. Abel and Harry C. Risley, the directors, and their efforts 4o make it a brilliant and pleasing entertainment were highly successful. The interior of the Aca demy presented a beautiful appearance. The stage was set with the celebratea Sicilian Vespers seene,and three magnificent chandeliers, digplay ing three hundred and twenty gas jets, burning over that portion of the spacious ball room. Very handsome brackets were erected around the stage, displaying over fifty burners. The centre of the floor had painted on it an immense ball or globe in fancy colors, .around which was inscribed in gigantic letters the words "Coterie Carnival, Aan The attendance at the carnival was very large. The parquette circle, balcony and family circle were filled with spectators, the ladies- being / richly attired, principally in ball or operatic costume. Whole fernlike, including children of tender age, occupied seats in the balcony. A view of this part of the houde from the stage was greed, while the danclug-floor presented an liquidly magnificent appearance when looked at the attditorium. There were three bands of music under the direction of Messrs. Carl Bents, Theo. Hermann and ilea). X. McClurg. The musicians were arranged on a platform at *the rear of the stage, and the "sweet strains" could ,scarcely be heard by thoie- who were seated at the other end of the house. The orcheetra was large and well organized, but its location epoiled the effect of the music. - The ball was opened at nine o'clock, precisely, by a grand promenade, In which all in fancy costumes participated. The dancing then coin lan:axed, and was continued until two o'clock this morning, with a well selected programme. The scene on the stage was animated and grotesque. The number of fancy dresses was probably larger than were seen at the last carnival. Every Imaginahle form of garment was brought into requisition. There were coffee-pots, tea pots, patent medicine bottles, court costumes representing all ages and countries, huntsmen, country bumpkins, Goddesses of Liberty, cloWns, giants, Indians, Chinese, Yankees, Quakers, washer-women, gypsies, Grecians, country lasses, country squires, postillions, soldier's, au aliegoricai representation of Alaska, pages, Arc.
