'It is reported that several mothers,
chaperoning their daughters, perished,
but saved twenty babies which were
in a nursery room of the dance hall.
,While those in attendance 'were
fighting like beasts on the one exit, a
narrow stairway to th side street, and
relatives from the street were attempt

the members of their family, mothers
seized babies and hurled them over
the heads of the struggling -mass of
men, women anlld children to the out
stretched arms of men/ below.
