expressed ignorance as to his where

lease had been secured under increased
bail, a $4,000 cash bond being filed,
State Attorney General Mayer, who
was in court, was indignant at the turn
of affairs. Justice Davy declared the
$4,000 bail forfeited. Attorney Gener-
al Mayer, moving for a forfeiture Of
bail, declared he was not surprised at
the turn of affairs. "If this defendant
has left town." declared the attorney
general, II know with whom he was

been greatly interested in Krup to put

persons were burned to death in an
Italian tenement house fire at 221 East
Seventy-third street early Thursday

with the ground floor roaring fur
mace beneath them. Three OF those
who lost their lives were kneeling in
prayer when the fire reached them
The dead are Guiseppi Randazzo, An
tonia Lorea, Calvalore IiaZza, Santa
Tiazza, Antonio Se.arde.
The lessee OF the house told the pc.
lice that the Black Hand society had
recently sent him letters demanding
$4,000 Although the demands did not
state what the penalty was to be for
refusing to pay the money, the police
have begun an investigation on the
belief that the fire was started by the
writer of the letters.
Blaze Laid to Incendiary.
Within the first hour after the fire
was under control the bodies of three
women and two men had been taken
from the stairways between the second
and third floors. The police. believe
that the fire was started by an incen-
diary. It began in heap of rubbish
at the bottom of an air shaft, and
spread through the interior Of q
grocery store on the ground floor. A
policeman was the nrst person to see
the fire, just as 1t had begun to creep
up the airshaft. He ran into the build
ing, pounding on the hall doors all
the way up to the sixth floor to waken
the tenants. The fire followed him SO
swiftly that when he reached the top
floor he was Obliged to send the ten
ants there out to the fire escapes to
save them from suffocation. Within q
few moments more all the floors
below the fire escapes were packed
with persons whom the flames had
cut of from escape by the Interior
stairways.
Victims Found Kneeling in Prayer.
When the fire department arrived
with it's ladders nearly every one on
the fire escapes was kneeling in
prayer. Adding to the pathos Of the
scene was the action of the men who
stood with their arms full of personal
possessions, while their wives fought
unaided to protect the children from
being trampled by the crowd or suf.
located by smoke. Everyone on the
fire escapes was saved by the firemen
The first group of dead was found on
a stairway near the second floor. On
the next stairway above the firemen
found the bodies Of two women and
three men who had evidently knel
together where they died.
