Fire in Piercefied, N. V, Results Fa-
 tally on Christmas Day.


 Malone, N. Y. December 25.-Four per- sons were burned to death today in the house of Julius King of Piercefield, prominent pulp and paper manufacturing town in the Adirondacks.
 The fire had gained such headway be- fore it was discovered that Mrs. M. J. McKovern, Kings eldest daughter, aad her three children. who were sleeping on the lower floor, were not able to get out, and all were burned to death. One of the children whose body was found close to a window evidently had made heroic efforts to escape.
