I think it is reasonably clear this was a reference to the Iroquois Theatre fire where 602 people died.Not at all. The actual quote is The most stringent protection of free speech would not protect a man falsely shouting fire in a theatre and causing a panic. The Iroquois fire was unfortunately all too real.
As you can see by looking at your own quote, there is nothing about whether or not there actually is smoke or is a fire in the "crowded theater". Certainly the operators, owners, and builders of the Iroquois Theater all claimed that the exists were more than adequate and it was entirely the fault of the people who died from being crushed/trampled because they should have remained calm.

As soon as the US entered WW I the first amendment basically went out the window with the Espionage Act. Schenck was part of that. R's, John
