THREW HIS BABES DOWN.
Heartrending Scene at q Tenement Fire
in New YOrk-Three People Fatally
Burned-Flames Cut off the Escape
of Roomers in the Upper Stories of a
Big BuiIding-Little Children Tossed
Into the Arms of Firemen Below.

New YORK, March 19.-The brick
tenement on Allen Street, five storiesin
height, was Quilted by fire at an early
hour this morning. The first floor is a.
liquor store owned by Jastro Alexander.
Solomon and Max Goldstein lived on
the second floor. The third floor was
occupied by Harris Greenbery, the
fourth by Marion Ridiello, and the fifth
floor by Bernard Jarter. The damage
to the furniture is about $1,000, and to
the building $4,000, covered by insur-
ance.
Three members of the Jarter family
were burned to death. They were
Bernard Jarter, 56 years old; Betsy
Jarter, Ii years old, and Sarah Jarter,
Is years old Sarah was last seen by
her brother Harry as he was making
his escape from the burning building
with his mother, Minnie carter, and his
9-year-old brother Abraham.
Minnie Jarter, 56 years old, was
burned about the face, ard taken to
Bellevue Hospital. Abraham Goldstein,
3 weeks old, was thrown from the third
story window of the burning building to
the sidewalk to save him from being
burned to death. He received internal
injuries from his fall and was removed
to Gouverneur Hospital. Henry Jarter,
10 years old, was slightly burned on the
right hand.
The fire broke out at 3:15 o'clock,
when every member of the families OF
the house was fast asleep. 1t was seen
first from the street simultaneously by
three policemen. II five minutes, be-
fore the firemen could get to work, the
flames that had crept stealthily from
the cellar up the only stairway envel-
Oped the house from the street to the
roof. The tenants, Hebrew tailors, with
their families, aroused suddenly to con-
front death in its most terrible form,
swarmed down the fire escapes on both
sides Of the building, shrieking and
wailing as they called their dear ones.
The iron rungs of the fire escape were
turning white with heat when Max
Goldstein reached for them from the
third floor and recoied in despair. He
stood holding his three little children in
his arms. From the street the police
yelled for him to drop them down. The
Rose, year-old baby, but Abraham,
8 years old, followed so quickly
that, though the policemen broke his
fall, they were unable to catch him.
He fell heavily on The pavement and
was picked up senseless, injured inter
nally. The father himself jumped after
and escaped unhurt. He tossed the
children by the heels.
The building was Quilted, and the
tenants lost their all. When the fire.
men entered at 5 o'clock, led by Chief
Kehoe, it was reported that ten were
missing, lost in the flames. The four
lower stories were searched, and no one
found. In the fifth story, next to the
roof, the fremen found Barnett Jastor
and mis- two daughters, dead.
The police believe that the house was
burned by incendiaries.

The Private Bank of Schwartz s. Co.
Closes Its Doors.
LOUISVILLE, KY, March 19.-Theo.
Schwartz q Co., private bankers failed
to-day for $4,000 Their assignment
carries to the wall the Union Tobacco
Works. Schwartz was the resident
German consul, and operated savings
bank in connection with his other
banking business. Fred Jannsen, mem
Der OF the firm, has mysteriously disap-
peared. Fears are entertained that he
has committed suicide. No dishonesty
Is, however, traceable to him.
Just who the largest creditors are can
not be determined at this time. In the
absence of positive information from the
firm, or from the assignee or the attor-
ney, any information will be guesswork.
But 1t IS understood, at least, that some
other Louisville financial institutions
are caught pretty heavy, and that
possibly other failures may be pre-
clpltated. However, from the nature
Of the business done, the losses here
cannot be so heavy as if the banking
business done was Of the regular order.
and some foreign correspondents may
lose as much as the local institutions, if
at all, in proportion to the amount the
defunct firm pays on the dollar if not in
full
Although it has not been stated to be
the fact, it is generally supposed that
the financial crash is due to the late
financial stringency, which, it is evil
dent, IS not yet altogether passed This
is inferred from remark of Mr.. Coch-
ran, Of the Louisville Trust Company,
assignee, to the effect that the firm, as
he understood, had been hoping to pay
out and tide over their affairs until yes
terday or the day before.

500 Canal.
SAULT STE MARIE, March 19.-At 2 P.
N. yesterday heavy leak broke out IN
the west end of the cofferdam, sur
rounding the excavations for the new
lock site. The break, which was
insignificant at the start, has grown
to a torrent, and the entire
works are submerged. The stationary
engine houses, derricks, tramways.
tools, ETC., belonging to the contractors,
Messrs. Collins & Farwell, are covered
with water and work has been discon-
tinued. The canal officials are employ
ing all available means of replacing
the washed out clay in the dam.
Broken stone is being thrown into the
gap to hold the cribbing, and large
number of teams are hauling clay, straw
and hay and the movable dam Is being
placed in position. This will materially
reduce the volume of water through the
canals. The strain cannot be lessened
through the lock chamber as the dis
charge valves are not in place. Col:
Poe, of Detroit, is expected on special
train. An overflow of the canal bank
below the new lock is expected this
afternoon.
The entire portion of the new lock ex-
cavation was flooded at 40 P. NJ. The
water is at present overfowing the east
ern impeachment to the canal and
emptying into the river below the
locks. The rupture in the dam
continues to increase, ard every effort Is
being made to stop the current of wa
ter through the main canal by the NOV

morning to exJudge Gmbel. The la
bilities are 800, 900; assets 100000.
There is profound sympathy in all
business circle s IN the city to-day at the
announcement of the failure. The
Simkinsons have grown old in an
honorable and hitherto successful bust
res7 career in Cincinnati, and both
hu1e always been valuable and honored
members of the community. John
Simpkinson has been active in many
public enterprises, benevolent and
otherwise, and as he was about
to retire on account Of ace,
this disaster is deplorable There
has been no sudden loss, but only d
gradual reduction in the volume of bust
ness, and as the firm had recently in
vested heavily in their new Fourth
Street establishment the burden
became too heavy to be borne.
The firm is composed of
John Simpkinson, his brother Alfred
Simpkinson, and nephew, II. Fl.
Simpkinson, who is also an adopted son
of John Simpkinson.
Yesterday deeds and mortgages by
the members of the firm to the amount
of $3.50 COO were fled in favor of Davis
Shoe Company, John Kelly, guardian,
Elizabeth Robson, Mary II. B. Wolcott,
guardian, and others.
The liabilities are estimated at $780,
OOO; the assets at $500, OOO The assignee
is Herman P. Goebel. 1t is said the as
signment leaves the men absolutely
penniless, their elegant residences being
turned over 10 their creditors.
