F|REBUC'S BLAZE
Discovers Oil-Soaked Mating
in Flames in Hallway of
Double Flat.
WARNING JUST IN TINE.
Fire So kindled as to Cut Off
Escape of Tenants by
Way of Stairs.
WARNING JUST IN TIME.

The early arrival OF a mlkman al
the big double nathouse at Nos. 343-345
Bedford avenue, Williamsburg. prevent
ed a disastrous incendiary fire to-day.
which would have imperilled the lives
OF twenty-five families.
When the milkman entered the vestl-
bule he saw flame and smoke in the
rear OF the hallway. The entrance
doors were locked, and he called the
tanitor, Jacob Erickson. An alarm
was turned in. and the tenants were
aroused. The janitor organized a
bncket brigade and put out the flames
before the arrival of the fire apparatus
The firemen quickly discovered that
the case was one for the police and the
Fire Marshal. The blaze had started
in a roll Of mating soaked with kero-
sene, and 1t had undoubtedly been fred
only a short while before the arrival OF
tho milkman.
The mating was long strip of heavy
hbrous fabric that had been stretched
IN the hallway. The incendiary had
rolled this into a compact bundle and
soaked it with oil. Had the flames
eaten into the core of the mating ana
gathered headway 1t would have made
a terrific blaze. cutting off all escape
by the stairway.
The janitor locked the doors of the
house securely before going to bed and
the doors were still locked when the
milkman arrived. How the incendiary
could have got into the house and
escaped is a mystery, unless 1t was by
way of the roof The house is
owned by NJ. d. Evans. is new and one
of the better types of brick and stone
apartment houses.
Mr.. Evans told Fire Marshal Beers
that he had no enemies that he knew
OF. No one could have been benefited
by the fire, and consequently the police
believe it was the work of some fiend,
whose only object was to imperil. II not
TO destroy life.
The Hiding is directly opposite the
Williamsburg Hospital, where there
was much excitement during the ar
rival of the fire apparatus.

NEAT ARREST OF
 ESCAPED PRISONER

His name was Andrew Brown. alias Blue. and his color was black, but he was not quite bright enough to escape the watchful eyes of Deputy Sheriff George Courson. The said black man escaped from Pratt mines Wednesday night after remaining in confinement there for about ten days. prior to that time having remained in the county jail await ing his trial
 An hour or two after his escape Deputy Courson who understands the negro race like boy of P years knows the alphabet. was driving along Fourth avenue Just as he was passing Nineteenth street he noticed the Brown. Blue or black negro cutting across the street from the Hill- man hotel corner to the opposite corner, and without more ado he roped him in. knowing well that he was not entitled to | freedom. The negro was taken to the ! county jail. where it was soon learned that he had left the Pratt mines but a short while before
 This capture is regarded as an excep- | tionally neat piece of work. It is the third arrest of escaped prisoners which | Deputy Courson has made during the past
 month. These arrests were of escapes ] from Pratt mines and from a North Bir- mingham hollowware plant, not from the
 county jail.

SITUATION IN PERSIA.
State of Anarchy Shows Few Encour-
 aging Symptoms.

St. Petersburg, June 18.-A dispatch received here from Baku says that Russian gunboat has entered the Per sian port of Enzeli, on the Caspian sea, but the statement has not been confirmed. The foreign office here is without definite advices from Teheran concerning the situation in Persia. It sees but few encouraging symptoms in the present state of anarchy that ex- ists in Persia. The flash of spirit shown by the Shah is not expected to have permanent result; and it Is con- sidered quite possible that the Shah might decide to take refuge either in the English or the Russian legation at Teheran. Such an action, which would be entirely in accord with Persian cus- toms, would be considered by Russia as tantamount to abdication.
