SEEk|NG M|LNER'S BODY.
Large Gang of Men at Work at
the Pearl Street Ruins.
The Brave Fire Patrol Man Lost His
Life in Performing His Duty.

The body OF brave Gus Miner. the
member of Insurance Patrol No. /. who
lost his life while performing his duty
at the fire in August Vablen's picture
frame factory, 436 Pearl street. late last
night, was not recovered up to noon to-
day.
Seventeenth, street, has thirty-five men
at work taking out the debris. They
have cleared away fifty feet of rubbish,
bit the pody lies buried thirty.tlve feet
further back, on the ground floor,
which was used as a salesroom.
Miner was a great favorite with bis
comrades. He leaves a widow and three
children. one OF whom is only two weeks
old He had recently bought a lot in
Flatbush. l.. L.. and had built a house
upon 1t on the instalment plan. lie lived
there with his family very happily. He
was allowed one day off in every ten.
M!lner had been ordered into the burn
ms building, together with Albert Dono-
van, George W.. Waddv ana James Bur-
command. They were told to spread tar
paulins over the stock to save 1t from
damage by water.
Miner held one end OF a tarpaulln, the
sheet of tarpaulin Is eighteen feet square.
suddenly the ceiling came down, COM
pletely burying Miner and partially COW
ering the others. particularly Donovan.
These latter were soon rescued by their
comrades, but Miner could not be
reached. lie must have been killed in
stantly.
Early this morning Capt ]. n. Sand
ford. OF Patrol No. !, who had had a day
of yesterday and was summoned from
his home, 1877 West Eighty-third street,
when Miner was killed, look charge of
the work of clearing away the rubbish.
He spoke very feelingly OF the dead
man., and said that he had frequently
distinguished himself by acts of heroism.
He sent Il messenger to Flatbusn to
break the sad news to the stricken
family.
Chairman George T. Patterson, of Fire
Patrol Company of the New York Board
of Underwriters, held a conference with
Supt. Hull. whi,h resulted in their send
ing for Undertaken Charles A. Benedict,
OF GO Carm'ne street, to take charge of
Miners remains as soon as found.
Donovan, who was badly hurt by the
falling debris, Is now in the Chambers
Street Hospital.
Shortly before noon the fire, which
had been smouldering, broke out anew.
A stream OF water had been playing
upon the wrecked building from the
time the fire was supposed to have been
gotten under control at ll.50 o'clock last
night. When the new blaze fiared up
three additional streams were poured in
to the structure and the flames were
again subdued.
This is Mr.. Vahlen's NTH fire in 436
Pearl street since 1872. His present in
surance Is S27, 800.

CORPSE SAVED FROM FIRE.
Three Tenement Houses Destroyed
on Staten Island.

TOMPKINSVILLE, S. l., Dec. ga
fire occurred at 2 o'clock this morning
In Hannah street, and three houses were
burned to the ground. They were frame
structures and used as tenements. the
occupants being chiefly Italian laborers.
Thu fremen had great difficulty in pre-
venting the flames spreading to the ad-
joining buildings. as they are very old
and would have burned like finder.
In a rear house the body of a man
named Murphy lay awaiting burial. An
alley from the street was the only means
of approach to the rear, and the body
was only obtained at great risk, as the
passage was many times cut off by flame
and smoke.
1t is thought that the fire was Of incen-
diary origin.

The Brazilian Government Is aking

poor food which the inhabitants have
been compelled to partake of, owing to
the scarcity OF provisions and the high

hour this morning.
The building was valued at $4,000 with
Its furnishings and was owned by a
syndicate In New York. 1t was erected
for the purpose of improving the prop
erty.
1t IL said there was no insurance upon
1t. The burned building had only been
built about a year, and last week opened
for It's second season.
The siX-months-old daughter OF Mr..
Henry Alexander, manager of the con-
Germ, was killed by being thrown from
the second-story window into the street,
and one of the employees was internally

had been left in an open fireplace when
the house was closed for the night.
