LOCKED IN TO DIE.
Five Children Suffocated in a Burn
ing Tenement.

Five Children Suffocated in a Burn
ing Tenement.
Five children, aged from six to eleven
years, lost their lives by suffocation in an
early morning fire at six-story tenement
house in New York City. Four were of one
family, children of Adler Bernstein, Rus
sian, who occupied the front rooms on the
top floor; the other was Fanny Rosen.
The last named was found in the room on
the fourth floor, where the fire is supposed
to have started. She was an only child, and
her grief and terror stricken mother could
not give an intelligent account Of what
happened in her room. She. like all the
other occupants of the house, is Russian,
and speaks little English.
That more lives were not lost was due to
the cool-headiness and daring bravery Of
Police Officer John P. Kelly. who climbed
on the fourth floor, at the risk of his life,
and saved three children who were nearly
overcome by the smoke and could not have
survived many seconds longer.
In this work he was ably supported by
Officer Baker, of the same precinct into
whose arms Kelly dropped child from the
second story, while he rushed up the ladder
to save another one whose franctic mother
was holding it out for him.
''-Ae-S 6Ss--6 NS"-~ w s-1o DSssO-~> "AsA~ 1850
one Officer Kelly was partially overcome by
smoke and lost his footing. He fell, but
fortunately he was within few feet of the
ground.
The child was saved, and the gallant Off
Ger escaped with sprained ankle, with at
least the lives Of three little children to his
credit.
While seven engines were playing on the
1ames, the firemen and police worked hard
to get all the people out. When it is taken
into consideration that there were nearly
200 person in the tenement house. large
portion OF them young children, it Is surpris-
ing that more lives were not lost.
The fire destroyed the roof Of the building
and the upper three floors before it could be
extinguished and the firemen could enter to
make search for the missing children.
Chief Riley ordered six men to go up aud
make search, and in few minutes five re-
turned to the street by the adjoining build
ing, No. 192, each bearing q child wrapped
in blanket.
The children were not at all burned. The
bed clothes in which they had wrapped
themselves were blackened and singed, but
the flames had hardly gained the room
where they slept before they were drowned
out by the streams Of water thrown from
the roofs Of the adjoining buildings. The
mother had locked them in the room.
