An Unknown Inoendiary Put 10
Families in Jeopardy.
Inmates Reused at 8 4. N. by the
Cries Of the Janitress.
Can OF OIL Found Near Where tho
Torch Was Applied.

What Is thought to have been an In
cendiary fire In the fve-story brown
stone double tenement-house at 211 East
Eightieth street, early this morning,
caused panic, and the nineteen fami-
lies residing there sought safety by
means OF iire-escapes and the roofs.
The smoke in the Railways was so dense
that they did not dare to descend the
stairs. nor did they stop to dress or
gather up their vaiuab.es.
At o'clock this morning the nine
year-old daughter of Mrs. Anna Cob
Ter. the janitress of the house, who oc-

was awakened by the smoke, which
caused her to cough violently. She
called her mother, who found the hall
ways filled with smoke. which was pour
Ing in from the cellar. Flames were
shooting from the cellar windows, and
the whole lower part of the house
seemed to be mass Of seething flames.
Mrs. Collier assisted her eleven-year-
old son through a front window and he
dashed through the flames and rang In
an alarm at the nearest box. Mean
while Mrs. Cohler's screams aroused the
other tenants, and a panic enstied.
BY this time the halls and most OF the
apartments were 20 thick with smoke
that breathing was next TO impossible.
, The. terrified tenants fed In their night
clothes, some by the way OF the fire-es-
capes. while those on the upper floors
climbed through the scuttle to the roof.
Henry Morgan, his wife. two children
and Mrs. Ladisiaw Schultz, twenty-five
years old, a boarder, who live on the
ground floor. were almost overcome by
the smoke. They escaped through the
windows with great difficulty Mrs
Schultz. who is an invalid, was 50 badly
affected by inhaling the smoke that med
ical attendance was necessary.
The firemen had little trouble with the
flames, which had started in a wood-bin
in the cellar.
After the smoke had cleared away
Carl Lil!ienthal, a tenant. with William
Meyer, who lives in the adjoining house,
went into the cellar and found kero-
beside the charred wood-bin. They feel
certain that the fire is the work OF an in
cendiary, and the Fire Marshal has been
asked to investigate.
The loss will not be over $500
