DRIVEN OUT BY FLAMES.
FIRE IN A CROWDED TENEMENT HOUSE.
MANY FAMILIES IN PBMLl-NARRow ESCAPES
FROM DEATH.

Fire broke out at IL 40 o'clock last night in
the six-story tenement house No. 3l6 Delaney
ST. The house was occupied by over twenty
families, and when the flames started
over 100 people were asleep in the
building Frank Murphy, bartender.
had just entered the house at IL 40 o'clock, when
he saw a burst Of flame on the second floor lie
ran to the door and shouted to policeman to give
the alarm, and then hurried through the big
house awakening the sleeping families.
While he was giving the alarm to the policeman
the flames had shot up through airshaft to the
roof. and the whole building almost instantly was
ablaze The people came rushing from thctr rooms
in their nightclothes and made frantic
efforts to get out Of the house by the fireescapes
in the rear.
Murphy showed great GOODNESS and presence Of
mind preventing several people from lcaping to
the ground in their terror, and assist
ing women and children to the frc-escapes.
On the top floor lived Nathan Bondell, his wife.
Bessie, and their two children. They were driven
to the roof, and escape seemed shut
off. In the rear of the tenement
house was stable. Two young men,
Theodore and Henry Hultz, were in the stable
nndl they managed to raise several long
planks from the top of the stable to
the roof of the burning house. Having
made frail bridge in this way,
the young men succeeded in getting the Bondels
across it in safety.
At / 80 o'clock this morning, the iremen had
the flames under control, but they had not yet
been able to make search Of the
house and feared that of the tenants
might have been burned to death or smothered
One young woman, named Cohn, declared that her
mother was missing.
bernard COhn. who owned the building, lived on
the second floor in the rear, with his family and he
also occupied part Of the grosd floor. Across the
hall from him on the second floor
lived Herman Morgenbesser and his family, and it
was in their rooms that the blaze started.
Murphy, who discovered the flames, declares that
the doors. of the rooms of Morgenbesser
were open and that he and his family were the
only people in the house awake and dressed.
