Hundreds of chlldrou wore bur ied in the ruins of a church on which shells fell, and it was believed 1,800 soldiers were burled in the ruins of their barracks, which were demolish ed, the advices state. The disaster occurred at noon yes terday. Details of the damage and the number of victims aro lacking, but tho dispatch recQivod here said it j was known that tho death toll was vory large. Tho soldiers wore having dinner when their barracks wore destroyed, and a largo number aro known to hnvo boon killed. Tho railway station was also demolished. Fires Immedi ately broke out in sovcral places, and tho inhabitants fled in panic, as the entire town was ondangord. (Tho similarity of tho forogoing dispatch to on? from Belgrade yes terday, which reported an explosion at Monastir, in the southern part of Old Serbia, when an ammunition dump blow up, makes it seem possi ble that both relate to tho same dis aster.
