Providence Journal publishes a letter re
ceived by:Mr. •W. A. Pearee, of Provldence c
from his father, resident in Santiago, Chill,
who witnessed the recent.appaling catastrophe
by which more than two thousand human be
logs were burnt to death. it appearsthat the
failure to regatta the unfortunate victims- was
owing to the idiotic police system of the CM,
bans. The writer says
",1 bear.you asking, why,were those sufferers,
not rescued? Yes, - whywere they not ram-
My heart sickens within• me at the questioa.l
Those deterrmined, stupid ignoramuses o f ppoolice
men! Fifty foreigners, had they been allowed :
to work, and trimork in their own way, 'could
and; would have rescued :nearly-or quite the
whole mass. But noi.at always the case here

their handeOtimoking them out •of my way
and being knockettimieturn, until I was over-;

and all within hearing of the most heart-rend-.
ing lamentations 'that ever 'sounded on human
eam. ; And nearly-every foreigtier-fared.sim
to myeelf-r-rwas kept back: Mr. Domilow, of
the gas wotks, received a bayonet wound at
the fire while in.-the act.of rescuing ti . yottng
lady whom, be recognized, a Mies Larren. He
bad fought his way, in company.with one o
the 3gorkaten- at,the gas works; to the. church,

saw Miss Lsrren ; she at ihtl sante time recog
nised:him, and called on him to save her.
"He could inconsequence of a sheet

to her, which -she grasped with both hands,
when he and hisltiond atterapted to drag her
through the flames ; but she was so surrounded
and hemmeddn with the dead and dying, that
her strength was not sufficient. They aban

gun from the policeman, khboked-lainv Benito

to save the poor girl. But: the lithe lost in
disputa-v*o police was, a. life lost with her.
This only due of many similar ecenei.
"Your brother Charles battered a door down

strength of eight men could not. extricate her
from her companiobs, and they had to leave
her amid such cries •for help_as no Christian
heart could &Ware, neither cat language de
ecribe.
-‘`The - police bad full charge of the front of the
church, and in such force that the , foreigners
could do nothing there. The police rescued
but a few. Axei and crotvbisrs were not to:be
had until a late hour. A singlii instinCe will
suffice to show the stupidity of the police. An
officer of the police set' some tialf , 'dozen of his
men to hew or batter down-one of those large
front doors with their, old broadswords. • The
doors'are made of two inch bard Woad, double
thicknass,mnd riveted through and through
'with iron:rivets. You can judge the effect
their old cutlasses. dm& on the doors better
than I can describe it.
"The scene at the ohuroh the 'following day
was the most revolting, heart-distressing, that
everwas witnessed since the world.was created.
There were the poor unfortunate dead in all
stages of consumption, the greater portion of
them naked. Bat a few could be reoegnized
by their surviving friends. The police ordered
on the peones, or laborers to remove the dead.
"Those demons,worse than devils damned
commencedtheir work with ,as much hilarity
as you ever, saw school , childrententer on some
pleasure excursion. The dead - were pulled
about and pulled apart as one,woirld pull apart
tangled brushwood. You could see two or
more peoneo dulling on a limb of someone
buried under the others, until the limb - was
pulled from the body. Thertthey would
a peon howl ef exultation, and commence at
another. The dead were actually separated
with crowbars and picks. Limbs, heads end
fragments were shoveled 'into carts with no
more feeling than Irish.laborers, would have In
shovelling gravel into a railway car.
Hundreds of.bodies but partially:burned, en
tirely naked, were,tumbled into open carts and
