NEGROES MENACED.
Fire Follows a Change from White
to Black Tenants.
Threats Had Been Made by Dis
possessed Whites.
House Had Been Flooded, Then
Came This Suspicious Blaze.

A short time ago the owner OF the two
houses which form the double-deckcr
tenement at 22l and 223 West
ont all the white people who
were tenants Of his and let the
rooms to colored folks, who were willing
to pay a higher rent. The white fam
HES were told to move. and colored
antilles took their places. No. 223 Is
already filled with negroes. In No.
@?l only three white IA nilies are left,
and they will have to move soon.
Early to-day fire was discovered in the
upper part of No. 22l.
The action of the owner in establish
ing n negro colony in the block did not
meet with the appreciation of other peo-
pie in the ncighborhood. and it is said
that threats have bee1 made. Miss
I'avcr, colored. was appointed janitross
Of No. 22l. a negro named Paine lived
with her and did chores aroun the
louise. Besides the ianitress the fami-
lies of Donald McCready and Francis
Tailor lived on the first floor, and Philip
Ephington on the second floor. The re-
maindcr of the house was vacant.
Paine said this morning that he went
through the house at 10 o'clock last
night and found everything all right. A
few minutes before 100 this morning
Policeman Anderson saw smoke coming
from the windows on the third floor.
He banged with his club on the doors
and awakened the tenants, all of whom
fled into the street. When the tiremcn
got there n fierce fire was burning in the
upper floors. The stairs were ablaze
from the third story mp. and the flames
were shooting from the windows on the
top floor.
The iiremen went up to the roof of
the next house, crossed over and cut n
hole in the roof of the burning build
ing. Water was poured through the
opening until the flames were drowned
out, The whole building was flooded.
The McCready. I;phington and Tailor
families lose about $500 each, and the
building was damaged 5000.
There Is a suspicion that the fire was Of
~inCendinry origin. Paine, the colored man,
said that many of the white people in
the ncighborhood have had hard feel
ingS against the owner for taking col
Ored families into his houses. Two
weeks ago some one turned IN all the
faucets in the vacant rooms and flooded
the building. Several nights ago Donald
McCready heard Il noise in one of the
upper floors and went to see what
caused 1t. He found two strange men
acting suspiciously, and when he asked
sprang at him and Knocked him down.
The two made their escape over the
roof.
The belief among the tenants was that
some one had hidden himself in the
house last night and started the fire
for spite. The Fire Marshal will be
asked to make al investigation.
