"Such a fire as occurred . in the Iro. quois theatre .would not be pesslble in any theatre in Portland. - In the niifat place, all our theatres here are so con structed that if the ' lights were blown out by' an explosion of' any character, enough light would penetrate from, the outside to permit . the people to ? see their , way to the exits. In the next place, there is no possibility of an ex plosion of gaa. tanks, as gas Is ; not used to produce the calcium effects, that' method having been supplanted by vi- rect current : electricity. "i':1!' ''! :: ."Under the old system of using, gas for calcium- effects, . the gas was de livered in tanks,' two tanks 'being re quired for each lamp or burner. Theso tanks were being, used In the Iroquois theatre on a swinging bridge above the stage, out of sight of the : audience This gas , Is highly ; explosive, . and -I should jthink;. it would be . death to in-, hale it. This method Is entirely out of vogue in the West, and-1 would not permit it in my theatre at all. : ,T I cannot understand how the as bestos curtain could have been - ob structed by a -wire used in an aerial act, as such a wire would prevent ; th descent of the drop curtain, which must surely have been "used at the1' end ot every , act I think it pocslhle that'av. elettrlo cajlclum in close proximity 16 the gas calcium light caused the trou ble, and that the stage employes tfcre at fault, though of course I know only what I have read in the papers. . It Is the most deplorable affair In the theat rical history of the country. I am always on the lookout for fire and . should an incipient blaze bo dis covered, .even while the .audience .s in our theatre, there is no question that, it would be promptly extinguished, as we have Babeock extingtilshers in all part of the house, and they are kept in thor ough order. All of our employes, from the manager down, are, trained to han dle them.; Wefnever permit children to go above the first balcony, at matlneus, end we only use the first balcony when the lower part of the house is filled. Kvery manager exercises more than us. tial care at matinees. Hereafter I in tend, to request our audiences to leave by the nearest exit when they go out, The trouble at the. Iroquois theatre was that all the1 people were struggling to get out (Where , they went in, and they did not use the nearer exit's."
