ORIGIN OF A FIRE IN DISPUTE.
Detectives Think It Was Started
by an Inoendiary.
The Marshal Believes n Tramp Might
Have Caused It.

A fire at 23s East One Hundred and
Second street that did only about 500
damage created something OF n panic
at 40 o'clock this morning. Fire Mar
shall Mitchell and Detectives Smith and
Mooney. OF the East one Hundred
and Fourth street station, are making
an investigation.
They were unable to determine this
morning whether the fire was of in
~cendiary origin or n result of accident.
The building in which the fire occurred
Is a five-story double-deCkcr occupied
by eighteen Polish families. The fire
started in an ~unoccupicd room In the
rear of Charles Rosen's shoe shop, and
was discovered - Roundsman Eagan.

The tenantS were aroused by Police
man Brown, and in a short time were
rushing about wildly, cndeavoring to
escape through the smoke-hllcd house
to the street. Mrs. Rosen. who had
been i'll for several weeks, had to be
carried to a neighbours house for safety.
The flames were quickly extinguished
and quiet restored.
In one corner Of the room In which the
fire started was "A small pile OF rubbish.
The door leading to the room was not
locked, and could be reached from the
main hall. Fire Marshal Mitchell is OF
the opinion that II tramp might nave
gone into the room to sleep, and in
leaving CarelCssly thrown a lighted
match into the infammable rubbish.
ID t%ectives Smith and Mooney incline
towards the theory that the building was
set On fire miliciously.
On March 30 the detectives raided a
disorderly house in the same tenement,
kept by Ellen McCiinn. -Four persons
were arrested at the time. They were
Ellen McGinn, Minnie Lanahan. James
