r. LIVES: LOST
In the Brooklyn Boarding
House Fire, Sunday.
Twelve Persons Injured and at
Least Three Missing.
Dead and Injured Were Laborers-
Money Loss Slight.

New York. Nov. 20.--At least IL
lives were lost in a fire in Brooklyn

.iremen are searching for other bodies.
II is believed that the death list will
reach Is. Twelve persons were injured,

Shortly after O'Clock this morning
flames were found in the cellar Of No.
1S6 Troutman street, three story
frame tenement house. and by the time
the firemen arrived. the stairways and
air-shaft We're ablaze and the hall,
Tiled with smoke. Three other alarms
were turned in and soon large de-
tachment of firemen was at work fight
ing the fire.
Despite the efforts Of the firemen the
flames spread to the adjoining tene-
inents Nos. 1S2. 1874. lSS and 100. Tho
occupants of these houses were early
notified Of their danger. and it is be-
lieved that all escaped.
The firemen found the dead bodies
OF 10 persons shortly after their ar
,Ival at the scene. Further search re.
suited in the finding Of the bodies OF
man and woman in bedroom on the
top floor of No. 1856. They were
burned severely. but death. as in tho
cases OF the other victims, had been
due to suffocation
Inc hrst floor Of the building where
the fire originated. was occupied bv
Antsnio Giambalos, as grocery store.
ms living apartments being in the rear.
me names were first found, according
10 those VINO turned in the first alarm,
N the cellar. Immediately under this
store. and they communicated with
ilShtnlng rapidly to the upper floors
o! the house.
The cause of the fire is unknown.
among the dead are members of the
families of Marano Triolo, Carlo
i'arnlo and Joseph Palivanaro. The
occupants Of the house were laborers
Inc money loss is inconsiderable.
