ALBANY, n. Y. Dec. 3L-The Della

Sunday night. There were 100
guests in the house. ALI escaped, al
though two women and two men were
badly injured. They are: Mrs. q. F..
Fookes, wife Of the agent Of ths Ma
tional Cash Register company, Of this
city, formerly Of Dayton, o.; Benja-
min Heilman, and his wife, of Brook
lyn, who were on their wedding tour;
Edmund Walsh, porter, badly
burned
The Victims.
Mrs Fookes jumped from the third
story window above the main floor on
Steuben street, striking on the roof of
the balcony on the main floor and roll
ing off onto the sidewalk, q fall of
80 feet. She received internal injuries
and will die.
Mr.. Heilman jumped from window
on the same floor, but jumped clear of
the balcony, falling on a snow bank.
Mrs. Heilman also jumped, but struck
the balcony and likewise rolled
off into the street below. All
three came down, it seemed,
almost together Mrs. Hei.man's
fall was broken somewhat by striking
on the heads and shoulders of three
men who were passing. MIR. Heilman
was badly burned about the chest and
was internally injured. He may die.
His wife is badly burned about the
face, her nose is split open and she
cover.
Edmund Walsh, porter, who, as
soon as he heard the cry of fire, went
through the house alarming the guests,
found his escape cut off on reaching
the upper stories He succeeded in
getting out on the roof of the center
annex, and with Edwin Murphy, am
other employee, was rescued with the
aid of ladders. Walsh's hair was
singed and his hands and arms were
badly burned. He was taken to the
hospital.
Rapid Spread Of the Flames.
The fire started in the basement on
the Broadway side, directly under the
!, elevator shaft and spread with the
rapidity of lightning. No one had
time to save anything above the main
floor, and before the affrighted guests
had emerged upon the streets
the flames had broken through
the roof The elevator shaft was
adjacent to the Broadway stairway
ind the flames cut off the egress of
the guests in the northern end of the
hotel in which nearly two-thirds of
the guests were located. Those who
we're not able to get past the elevator
shaft so as to pass down the main
Stairway on Steuben street were with
out hope of escape for some minutes.
until their way was directed to the
servants stairway in the north section
ofthe structure.
:!'here were many thrilling escapes
ana it is surprising that the casualties
are so few when the sweep with which
the, fire spread throughout the guest
