new YORK TENEMENT HOUSE FIRE.
Nearly Score of People We're Injured,
Some Fatally, Among the Num-
ber Being Five Firemen.
The Tenants Were Not Aroused From
Sleep Until the Hall Was Ablaze,
and Escape Through the Build.
ing Cut Off.

New York, Sept 5-Fourteen per.
sons were killed and nearly score in.
jured in fire in a five.story double
tenement in Attorney street, at an
early hour Sunday morning. 1t was
one OF the worst fires in the loss of
human lives that has occurred on the
East Side in several years, although
the property loss was slight.
The dead included four women, one
man and nine children. ranging In age
from three months to ~ years.
Many of the injured were taken to
hospitals, and It is thought that sew.
eral OF these will die. Among the in
Jured were five firemen who were on
fourth floor balcony when it fell
with them
The small number of men among the
killed and injured was due to the fact
that most of the men who lived in the
building, following the Attorney street
custom in hot weather. were asleep on
the roof, while but few Of the women
and children were there Those on the
roof were unable to escape by descend.
ing through the burning building, and
made their way to safety over neigh.
boring roofs. Meanwhile the members
Of their families, who had remained in
their rooms. found escape cut off. and
panic reigned throughout the structure.
The fire started about 3 o'clock in
the morning. and there was consider
able delay in sending in an alarm, al.
though the district is one of the most
thickly populated in the crowded East
Side Of New York. When the tiremen
reached the scene some of the tenants
were jumping from the windows and
from the ends of fire escapes that
reached only TO the second floor:
others were crouching in the smoke in
the small rooms and narrow halls
The fire is supposed to have been
caused by the explosion of a lamp
that had been left 10 light the hall on
the second floor, and the sleeping ten
ants were not aroused until the hall.
way was ablaze and escape through the
building cut off.
The fire was soon eXtinguished. and
the search tor the dead began. Most
Of the dead were found on the two
upper floors While the search of the
building was going on, four fremen
were at work on a fourth floor balcony,
when II gave way. Another fireman on
the balcony on the floor below was
also carried down, and was probably
fatally injured. The other four were
badly hurt, but will recover. Two of |
them fell upon pile of bedding in the |
court yard, and their injuries were .
caused chiefly by the iron work of the |
balcony falling upon them.
