Johnstown, Pa., was the scene of a terrible disaster Tuesday night, by which ten persons lost their lives and over 75 were injured, some very seriously. As the performance of the "Uncle Tom's Cabin" troupe was drawing to an end in the Main-street opera house, the fire-bell was rung, causing a frantic scramble for the exit. There were 500 or 600 men, women and children in the hall, and to gain the street, it was necessary to pass down a narrow walled-up stair-case and through a very narrow door. The people from the streets rushed into the door from the outside and many were crushed before they could be forced out. It was necessary to turn the hose on the crowd at the door before the rescuers could get at the dead and wounded.
