SPRISGFIELD Mass, March THE new Office

o'clock this afternoon. Six of the employees met
q terrible death. Four others were badly injured.
The fire was first discovered In the maiin room,
and clouds OF smoke were pouring out of the lower
windows before the fifty persons on the upper
hoor were aware of their danger. The flames shot
up an old elevator in the rear cutting off escape
by the stairway, and most Of the employees who
escaped found their way to the ground by way Of
the roof in the rear. The unfortunate men and
women who crowded into the editorial rooms were
cut of from escape in the rear and had to face the
alternative Of burning to death or jumping to tho
sidewalk below. The fire department. responded
promptly, but it seemed an age before the iremen
reached the windows in the fifth story A ladder
was placed to reach to the fourth story, and the
sight OF rescue So near seemed to madden the
suffering people at the windows, and one by one
they dropped to the sidewalk below Six persons
