At a sale of dishpans here toâ€"day 1,000 _ women jammed themâ€" selves so closely together in a small store that the horrors of the Black Hole of Calcutta were repeated. Two of them were fatally and seven oth ers dangerously injured in the panicâ€" stricken struggle for fresh air. ‘The proprictor then sent in a riot call, but the policemen who responded to it were not able to restore order among the mob of housewives, pasâ€" sionate in their desire to save a few pennies on the dollars. The store was soon packed with eustomers, while the women on the outside fought to squeeze themselves into the jam. The temperature inside the store rose to 96 degrees and the air soon became vitiated. Then the terror broke lJoose. There was only one means of egress and the aisles leading to it were soon blocked _ with _ prostrate, fain{ingâ€"woâ€" men. Those who were strong: enough to keep on their feet and fight _ toâ€" ward the door, trampled the weaker ones ruthlessly under foot. Terrible screams were heard out in the street. Blows were struck and clothes . were rent; the women fought like animals. The store, which stands at the corâ€" ner of Seventh and Felix streets, had announced a sale of kitch n utensils at enticing reductions in price, and before it opened for business this morning hundreds of women _ were waiting on the sidewalk for first chance at the bargains. _ When _ the doors were unlocked there was a mad rush for the interior. A flying wedge of women huddled themselves at the entrance, shricking, scufling and pullâ€" ing each other‘s hair.
