severe in their criticism of the way the
work of searching for the dead was being
prosecuted as the men were apparently
liStleSS, and there was none OF that energy
which might be expected where the labor
ers were endeavoring to save the remains
Of unfortunate brothers. They were max
ing a hole down into the RUNS, when, as
Lieut.. Kelly pointed out, they could have
made great deal more Roadway by pulling
out the debris through the immense doors
on h street, which virtually made the
Stumphs have an entire open front on that
thoroughfare. 1t was believed that the
bodies of the two missing men would be
found nearer k street than those of their
companions, brought to light yesterday, as
1t was probable they had reached the
ground floor and were making their way
out when the superstructure above them
fell and buried them in a fiery gave.
A Talk With Mr.. Walter Stumph.
Mr.. Walter Sturnph.l enc of the proprie
tors of the factory, was at the scene all
day, and in conversation with Star re-
porter, said that all the men missing, as
we'll as those identified were at work on
the fourth floor. .'H
There were seven men at work there"
he remarked, land / Thought, last night,
that all of them had been lost. but this
morning l saw one of them around here-I
don't know his nifne-so there are six TO be
accounted for. OF these, the bodies OF w.
P. Tennyson and Willie Ashe have been
identified, while two un-ecognized bodies
have also been recovered. / believe there
are two bodies still in the ruins. The four
missing men. theI efore, are Henry Fowler,
who was the foreman; Philip Alderman,
cabinet maker. who was employed on fold
ing BEDS Robert EeitZeil, a weaver of
spring beds, and a German who was en-
ployed only four or five days ago. but who
lived with Alderman over there across the
street at No. 63i Massachusetts, avenue"
Inquiry at No. GA developed the German
name to have been Philip Reichman, who
was also a cabinet maker, whose speciality
was making folding beds.
Amount of LOSS Yet Uncertain.
Mr.. Stumph said it had been impossible
for him to give any thought to the matter
of estimating the losses, and neither could
ne designate the companies carrying the in
surance, which amounted to about $4,000
on stock and building. The loss of the
Stumph Brothers will probably reach three
times this amount. The Woodruff File
Holder Company suffers nearly - otal loss'
from the walls falling upon 1t, and its first
story is filed with wreckage. The loss is
unknown, but II is understood that 5000
insurance was carried. George l.. Benner.

AN INVESTIGATION TOMORROW.
Deputy Coroner GlaKebrOOk Finally
Decides to Inquiry Into the Fire.

Deputy Coroner Glaxebrook Finally
Decides to Inquiry Into the Fire.
When Deputy Coroner Glazebrook visited
the raorgue last night to see the bodies and
give directions concerning the disposition
of them he found a large crowd of men,
women and children gathered in and about
the little building, most of them attracted
there by morbid curiosity, while a few
were there for the purpose of identifying
relatives or friends. He soon had the crowd
out of the building and then he gave orders
that the general public should not be ad-
mitted, and told the janitor to admit only
| such persons as those who had relatives
or friends In the building at the time of the
fire.
After looking at the bodies DIR. Glaze
brook said he deemed an inquest unnec-
essary, and told persons interested in the
dead ones that he would issue the death
certificates.
| This morning when a Star reporter called
to see DR.. Glazebrook the latter had not
changed his mind concerning the necessity
| of an Investigation.
1T won't be necessary to hold an in
quest he said, because the deaths re-
suited from what was clearly an accident.
| If the case had been similar to that of the
Fords Theater disaster, involving the col
| lapsing of a building, matters would have
been different and 1 should have held an
inquest. But this disaster Is similar to the
Knox fire, and 1t seems that there is no
one % blame for II. Ii was fire with all
the unfavorable conditions, and just as
soon as it caught 1t swept through the
whole building.
Il have issued orders to the morgue and
hosrital to have individual underwriters
come to me and get the certificates"
In response to a question the doctor said
he would Issue certificates of accidental
DEATH.
Later on" added the doctor should IL
be deemed necessary to hold an inquest, 1
will have the police summon jury TO hear
the evidence"
At little before 2 o'clock this afternoon
DR.. Glazebrook telephoned The Star office
that an investigation into the circumstances
Of the fire would take place tomorrow morn
ing at IL o'clock ct the fifth precinct sta
ton house.

A Clothing Dealers Loss.

Morris Levine and his wife, Minnie, were
arrested in Philadelphia yesterday and
held for the authorities here They are
warted on a charge of false pretenses. 1t
is alleged that they obtained from Isadore

SIC worth of clothing under the pretense
that they wanted to look at the goods be-
fore purchasing them. Instead of making
purchase or returning the goods they
tc ok them to Philadelphia, so it is charged.

charge of Contractor Albert Gleason. 1t
was known that two bodies must still be
in the wreck, but up to this morning they
had not been recovered. When daylight
broke the scene was one of complete ruin
and desolation. 1t was a horrible catastro-
phe second only, in recent years, to the
Ford's Theater disaster last summer.
The Scene Today.
Chaos properly characterizes the scene of
yesterdays terrible holocaust. Looked at
from X street or Massachusetts avenue,
from the roof Of the Homeopathic Dispen-
sary or the top of Lowenthars furniture

ruin tangled and twisted and involved in
an inextricable puzzle of confusion, while

BODIES RECOVERED

FATALITY At THE STUMPH FIRE
Two More Believed to Be YET
Under the Debris.
T II Z seen ES TOD AY

The fire at Stumph's mattress factory yes
terday afternoon proved to be far more Sc
rious. so far as loss of life was co 1cerned,
than was at first supposed. Up to o'clock
1t was not certain beyond a doubt that any
one had been killed, but, as stated in The
Star yesterday afternoon, the body of one
man was found in the ruins just before the
paper was going to press. By the time that
darkness had settled over the scene Of the
accident 1t was known that at least five
men had lost their lives in the great con-
Migration. OF these, one man. James f.
Vaughn, died at the Emergency Hospital
from internal hemorrhage Vaughn was
one of the men who leaped from the roof
when the fire was at its height. He was
taken at Cnce to the hospital, but there was
nothing that could be done to save his life
He was twenty-slx years of age, and was
foreman of the carpet-cleaning department,
which was located on the top floor of the
burned building ...
Finding the Dead Bodies.
Within two hours Of the time the fire
started 1t had burned out so completely that
after streams of water had been thrown for
while upon the smoldering ruins it was
possible to begin the work of clearing away
the walls and rafters to find out whether
there was any truth in the rumor that sew
eral men had gone down in the fall OF the
building. Shortly after 3 o'clock an en-
the building. 1t was a difficult undertake
ing, but. little by little, the firemen forced
their way through to the spot where it was
thought the dead would be found. in a few

way to the roof. and. after telling Vaughn
and Bivins, the only two men who were
working the top floor, that they could
not escape below, leaped to the ground.
Frank Ash. father of the dead boy, was
employed on the second floor. There were
exactly twenty-nine persons in the building
when the fire started.
The Injured ut the Hospital.
The three men who were most seriously
injured were the men who jumped from the
roof, as described in yesterdays Star. They
were II. J. Haske, twenty years old, 27I9
+ street; William Bacon, 40 New York
avenue. and James L. Vaughn, who lived
on Jackson street, Anacostia. Vaughn was
the man who died in the evening at the
hospital. He was a married man and his
wife went to the hospital to him, but
his mind wandering and he did not
seem to recognize her. Arthur Bivins
twenty-five years of age, of Anacostia, was
also badly bruised by leaping from the
fifth-story window. He was also injured
internally. Haske had both legs broken
and was internally injured. His condition
last night was considered to be serious.

building in Baltimore gave way within
twenty minutes, and that was looked upon
as a record in point of time Nothing like
Yesterdays blaze has ever been known in
the history OF the local fire department
What CHIEF Paris Says.
Chief Paris was very much exercised to-
day over the charge that has been made
that the fire department was slow in get
ting to the fire. So far from this being the
case, he claims that the engines We're on
the scene with unusual quickness, and the
official records at headquarters would GER
tainly seem to bear out his contention. The
first alarm was turned I'm at IL AS from the
automatic box on the front of the building,
and this brought one engine-No. 6-to the
scene as a local" At IL :5l the regular
was turned in from box 127, at the corner
Of 9TH and 1 streets. bringing out four en-
gines, truck, a chemical engine and an as
sistant chief. Just four minutes later the
general alarm was rung, bringing out the
entire department. and the records show
that tine last company TO reach the scene
was on hand by 1901 o'clock, and then
there were ten streams of water pouring
onto the building There are only nine
steamers in the District-a number entirely
insufficient in the opinion of the authorities
especially IL leaves no chance for keep
ing a reserve in case of another fire break
ing out in a different section of the city.
One steamer had two streams at work.
Assistant Chief Lowe was at his home In
the West End when the fire broke out, as
il was his day off, but when the gong in iiis
house rang he ran out and caught the truck
that had the longest distance to go. To
Star man today he insisted that he was az
the scene precisely seven minutes afte-
twelve The only delay that IL officially
known of was in the case of the hook and
ladder truck, enc of whose horses fell as IL
was on the way to the fire. That, the
driver claims, was an unavoidable accident,
as the horse slipped and could not possibly
be held up.
The Principal Trouble.
The principal trouble. according to Chief
Paris. in fires anywhere i'm the neighbor-
hood Of that one yesterday. arises from the
fact that all the hook and ladder trucks in
lance frcm this important section of the
and c, truck at New Hampshire avenue
and NJ street. and truck c at the corne- Of
Ohio avenue and 18th street 1t naturally
took some little time for the first of these
to reach the scene, but even IL one had been
on hand considerably earlier. II would have
been out of the question to use the ladders
for the flames burst forth so quickly that no
ladder could have stood In such a heat and
blaze long enough to have been of the
slightest possible service. For a number of
years past Chief Paris has urged that a
truck house be established somewhere in
the reighbo-hood of New Jersey avenue and
NJ street, on rising ground. where the truck
could get a good start to any fire I'm that
section of the town. instead of having to
come all the WY up hill from a distance,
as Is now the case, but every year the rec
commentator has been stricken out of his
estimates. -.' 49,.

moments the workers had uncovered the
hrst body. 1t was evidently that of man,
but 1t was prrned beyond all chance of
Identification. While they were taking out
the first body the firemen came upon the
second. AS was done In the first case
blankets were brought and wrapped around
the charred body, and it was carried to a
patrol wagon, to be taken to the morgue.
Scarcely five minutes more had elapsed
when third corpse was taken from the
ruins. Owing to its small size 1t was sup
at the morgue 1t was found that this was
not the case. In all probability it was that
of Willie Ash, fifteen-year-old boy, who
was employed by the firm, and lived at
2225 10th street. A few minutes before 6
o'clock another body was recovered and
carried 70 the norgre.
-Four Men Still Missing.
OF the four bodies that were at the
morgue last evening only two were identi-
fed. One was that of Whitney NJ. Tenny-
son, fifty-eight years of age who boarded
at 421 X street. The other was that of
Willie Ash. Up to a late hour four men
were still missing, and it was feared that
they, too, had lost their lives. They were
