New YORK, June ia six story
building on Montgomery street, filed

morning, and in a wild rush to the
street Of the $50 people working there,
three, including two men and one
woman, names yet unknown, were
killed, and several injured. Firemen
are still securing the different floors.
1t is probable the search will result in
adding to the death list. The inmates
were men, women and children, of all
ages, and all Polish Hebrews. The fire
is supposed to have started from stove
for heating irons in an apartment
near the stairway. Soon all exit was
cut off that way, and the fire escapes
were rendered useless by the fact that
iron shutters were spiked fast in all the
windows leading to them. All rushed
to the fire escapes in front, and fought
there like demons. The whole front Of
the building was alive with people, all
fighting for good places on the fire es-
capes, thereby hindering each other.
The ladder from the second story to
the pavements was not yet in place,
and several jumped from that point.
The first was II woman, who fell on the
iron railing IN front of the building
and was killed. Next came two men,
who fell on their heads and had their
skulls crushed. Others landed on
their feet and suffered little injury.
The fire department finally got ladders
alongside, and assisted the remainder
to escape. Some were driven stark
mad by fright. 1t is expected two or
more Of the injured will die. Mean
time the building was on fire on every
floor, and it took half an hour to sub
due the flames, The dead woman was
