jumped from n fire escape and broke
her neck. The injured include Kate
Convey. May wheelan and Katherine
Griffith. All were burned on fire
escape before jumping and they are
suffering from broken limbs and inter
nal injuries. -
The fire is supposed to have been
started by the upsetting OF glue pot
in the warehouse OF the Economy fur
niture company. located In the base
ment OF the building. which was four
stories. The flames spread rapidly
and most of the girls on the third
floors fled 10 the fire escapes. These
got as far as the second story, and
from there they jumped 10 areaway
Many OF the girls fled down one OF
