A TENEMENT FIRE
In New York Results In tho BuFnlng to
Death of Three PeraOuE

In New York Results In tho Burning to
Death OF Three Persons
New YoRK, Nov S,-SevOral lives
were lostiu tho fire which started about
/ a. IN. to-day, on the second floor OF the
aix.story brick building, at 7 Pelham
street. owned by Well & Meyer, and
used as a "sweat shop" Three charred
and almost unrecognizable bodies were
taken from tho ruins to-day, and one
man who jumped TO save his life from
tho flames, was so injured that he died
In the hospital whittier he was taken,
suffering from fractured skull. The
dead arc;
Jacob shap iro, watchman, found in
the ruins, forty.tive yeara old,
Isaac PenAOn, found in the ruins,
Unknown man, found in the ruins.
Morris DirIchauer, forty, who jumped
from second story window aud died
in Gouverneur hospital Of a fractured
skull.
Tho FIRE originated from some nm
known cause on the second floor OF No.
z, and spread with great rapldity
through that building and those imme'
dia.ely adjoining. Five alarms were
sent in, aud although large number oil
engin0S waro playing on the flames for
hours, nothing could be done to aavo
tho structures themselyeI, and tho four
buildings, numbering 8 aud 5 and and
8, were completely destroyed.
A SCENE OF TERROR.
The lire caused terror In the thlckly
populated noighborhood and people
ran out Of their houses into the atreets
In mulGitudei to escape the Impending
destruction OF their homes, which they
feared. The buildings burned were
filed with "sWeat shops" aud several
watchmen aud others slept there, how
many cannot be told yet Two OF these
people wero Dirschauer, who died in
GouVenuer hospital, and Samuel lG'
choWitz, lanitor OF No, I. Thoy jumped
from windows to Iave themselves.
IschoWitz Ia still In the hospital with
both legs broken.
After the lames had been extin'
guished, because there was little more
TO burn. a search was begun for tue
dead, for It was believed that many
might be in tho ruins. The hrst body,
totally unacceptable mass OF charred
flesh and bones, was found about o
o'clock to-day in the doorway Of No. Z.
1t was go burned boy ond all semblance
to a human body that 1t was ut first
supposed to have been a Now Found
land dog which was kept about the
place, but a doctor declared 1t 70 be the
remains OF man.
uERECodNIzARLR MASSES.
Two hours later another body was
discovered on tho third floor of No. I.
This, too, was practically uurccogniza-
BILE, but was identified as that OF jacob
Shapiro by relatives. At p. IN. still
another charred form oi immense stat
ure was found. This proved to be tho
remains OF Isaac Peuson, who was siS
feet four inches tall In life, and was
identified by his son.
The loss on each building ls estimated
at $l5, 900. while tho loss to the different
tenants IL thought 10 be about $500
each, making a total oi about $4,000.

BRAUHARSoIs, QUE, Nov S,-Fraucls
Cuthbert Valentine Shorts, who shot
aud killed John 10y and Maxine Le
Bouei, in the Valley Field cotton mill
on the night OF March !, 1895, was to-
day found guilty Of murder in the frst
degree. Argumentin the case was con-
cluded Saturday evening and the jury
was then locked up until this morning,
as they desired to deliberate on quos-
tious submitted to them by the judge.
The plea set up by the defense waa that
OF insanity, and it was with this point
that the judges questions had to deal.
The verdict, however, was that the state
OF mind OF the prisoner at the time of
committing tho crime was not such as
rendered him incapable OF judging the
nature and quality. OF his acts, or oI
knowing that such act or murder Waa
doing wrong.
Francis Cuthbert Valentino ShortlS
was sent out to Canada In tho latter
part OF 1894 by his parents from Water
ford, ireland, with the hope that he
would settle down 10 some business for
which he was suited, After sponding
some time in Montreal he obtained o
position in tho Montreal cotton mills
at Valley Field, Quebec. Here ho was
found to be OF little use, and had IRE.
ouent disagreements with tue mau-
ayers, which finally ended In his sever.
Ing his connection with the company.
On tho night OF the lst OF March no
entered tue office OF the mills, ostensl-
bly, to pay visit to his former CO.
laborers, but in reality, 1t soems, to
possess himself OF some Sl5, 900 in silver
and bank notes, which he knew would
be there, as it was tho night the pay
roll was TO bo made out aud tho pay
put up for the hands OF the mills. AS
he entered there were present John
Lowe, paymaster, John 10y, son OF the
mayor Of Valley Field, Arthur 10 Beouet
and Hugh Wilson, all employees OF the
mill. 10y had revolver next to him
on tho desk, and Shorts, who alwaya
had craze for reyolyers, took 1t up,
and, while playing with it, shot Wilson,
apparently by accident, 10y rushed to
tho telephone to call for medical help,
but before he could ring the bell
Shorts had shot him dead. Lo Boeut
and Lowe then grabbed the money and
shut themselves in the safe, while
Shorts fired several more bullets at
Wilson, who finally managed to escape
him and hid.
In the meantime one Of the watchmen
OF the mill. Maxine IeBoeuf, had come
TO the office on his regular rounds, and
was shot and killed also. After that
Shorts made frantic efforts to get Lowe
to open the door Of the vault aud finally
aiter Wilson had managed to crawl
outside and get help, he surrendered
himself. Friends of his parents who
arc very wealthy, Immediately obtained
the very best criminal counsel, and no
money was spared to savo him on the
plea OF insanity. A determined but
unsuccessful attempt was made to lynch
him at Valley Fields, aud for that rea'
son he was brought to Montreal for sale
keeping. Shorts was thirty.tivO years
old and does not show the slightest feel.
