New York, Sept. 14.-Seven persons
in one family were burned to death
and six others were injured seriously
in a fire which partially destroyed
tenement building at 6s-7O First street

families were asleep in the building
and thrilling acts of bravery accom-

Police Captain McDermott and the

out by the statements of the janitor
Of the building, who. says that an at
