CUT OFF BY FLAMES.
Men and Women Leap From Fourth,
Story Windows.

McArdle's large bag and general paper
stock warehouse at Albany, N. Y, has been
destroyed by fire. The origin of the fire was
the spontaneous combustion of pile of rags
on the third story So quickly did the flames
spread through the grease saturated build
ing that the employees, consisting of fourteen
women and girls at work in the sorting room
and ten men in the Office or about the build
ing, were forced to jump for their lives.
The majority escaped by leaping to the
roof of a neighboring house. Carrie Swartz,
who weighs over 200 pounds, jumped into
the yard and crashed through the roof of an
clubhouse, receiving serious injuries. Mrs
Ellen Mack jumped from the fourth story, a
distance of seventy feet, and fell upon pile
of scrap iron Her condition was critical
Richard Gamble, bOokkeeper, in his en-
deavor to avoid the flames fell through the
shaft and was badly cut and bruised. The
inhalation of flame, however, was the direct
cause of his death, which occurred soon al
terward.
Mrs. Ellen Frank, who jumped from the
fourth floor, and Mrs. Ellen McShane, who
fell down the elevator shaft, sustained frac-
lures of the limbs and severe bruises, but not
necessarily fatal injuries. Several others re-
ceived severe injuries.
