a FIRE HORROR.
Newark IN. - Tenement House
Burned-Fourteen Inmates Perish.

Newark IN. - Tenement House
Burned-Fourteen Inmates Perish.
NEWARK, N. j., March 13.-Four-
teen persons, a majority Of whom were
children, were burned to death at a
tenement house at Morris and Four
teenth avenues yesterday. Thirteen
bodies were recovered from the ruins
within three hours after the flames had
been extinguished.
The building was a three story frame
structure formerly used as a church, but
transformed into tenement house with
small rooms, scarcely 8 by 10 feet in d.
mansions, opening into narrow hallway
on both the second and third floors, form
ing a veritable fire trap.
This was right in the heart of the Ital-
ian district, and the greatest excitement
prevailed. This feeling was greatly in
tensifed when it first became known
that the fire was of incendiary origin,
and within 10 minutes of the time when
this report was first circulated men and
women, we'll nigh crazed by grief, ran
tearing around the streets looking for tho
man who was responsible for the fright
full tragedy and threatening all sorts Of
dire vengeance.
smoke was seen pouring out of one of the
second story front rooms. Some one on
the streets saw this evidence of fire and
hurried to an alarm box.
But long before the fire apparatus
reached the scene the interior of the
burning tenement was peopled with wild
Italians, running hither and thither, I'M
able to find means of escape.
Every room emptied its occupants into
those narrow little halls, and there was
no escape for the frightened tenants be-
cause of the jam, and they could not get
out.
Nearly every room in the house con-
tanned it's victim. Few were really burn
ed to death. Most of them were smoth-
cred to death. The bodies were carried
out by the firemen.
The police are confident that the fire
was of incendiary origin, and they have
arrested Vito Credanza on suspicion.
Virginius de Prula and Joseph Frenig
are being held by the police as witnesses.

the other evening he said he kept in his
employ about Jhirty-fiye men. With
these he keeps on most intimate terms,
living with them while experimenting
the construction of work, and some OF
the characters in his stories are taken
from their lives. ALI his characters, i'll
