IN INCENDIARY FIRE
SIX LIVES LOST AND SCORE OF
PERSONS INJURED IN SUB.
URB OF BROOKLYN.

More Than One Hundred People Were
In the Tenement Building at the
Time the Flames Broke Out and
Many Of Them Were Rescued by
Firemen-With One Exception All
the Dead and Injured Are Children.
New York, Oct 17.-Six lives were
lost, nearly score of persons were
injured and the lives Of more than q
hundred others were endangered in an
early morning tenement house fire in
the Williamsburg section of Brooklyn.
With one exception all the dead are
children and Of eight who were so
badly hurt that they were removed to
a hospital the Oldest is fourteen
year-old girl. Incendiaries are thought
to have been responsible for the fatal
fire and this theory is strengthened by
the fact that while the flremen were
at work on the blaze alarms were
turned in for two other fires in the
immediate neighborhood. The dead
are: Bella Glass, twenty-nine years;
Henry Glass, two years; Ida Saltofsky,
six years; Benjamin Warkelsky, eleven
years; Gussie Warkelsky, fourteen
years, and Charles Warkelsky, three
years.
Twelve families, comprising 12O per-
sons, were asleep In the big five-story
double tenement house when the
flames were discovered. When the
flremen came human lines were formed
from the fire escapes and the scream
ing women and children were lowered
to the pavement. The flames burst
from windows all about them and the
clothes of many of them were burned
from their bodies. Their hair was
singed and their bodies burned.
Many persons, unable to reach either
roof or fire escapes, were taken from
windows through which the flames al
ready were beginning to pour. The
five Warkelsky children were found
huddled in blazing room by a fire.

ing, their hair burned from their heads
and their bodies blistered. They were
