Newark, N. = Especially Twenty
Eve girls were burned alive or crush
ed to death on the pavement in leap
ing from windows and fire-escapes
within 10 minutes Saturday morning.
The tragedy occurred at a fire in
the factory building at Orange and
High streets.
The latest count shows that 20
OF the 20 bodies recovered have been
Identified and that six girls are still
missing.
They may be among the unidenti-
fed dead or they may be in the ruins
Fifty persons were taken to hos
pitfalls, of whom two may die. Among
the Injured is Joseph L. Sloane, dep
uty fire chief, who was overtaken by
the falling wall and buried in bricks
and rubbish. He is badly hurt, but
may recover.
The rush of the flames was so in
credibly swift and threw such unrea-
soning terror into the huddled work
Ing girls on the top floor that the
body OF one was found still seated on
q charred stool beside the machine at
which she had been busy when the
nrst cry of "hre" petrified her with
fright.
Trapped In a Tinder Box.
Horrible as must have been the
tragedy in the smoke of that crowded
upper room, what befell outside In
the bright sunlight was more hor-
rible still.
The building was furiously inflam-
mable, and the first rush of flames
had cut off all possibility of escape
by the stairways. The elevators made
one trip, but took down no passen-
gers and never came back. The only
exit was by two narrow hre-escapes,
the lower platforms OF which were
20 feet from the street.
On these overcrowded and steep
exits, made hot by the flames from
the lower windows, pressed forward
q mob of women, blind with panic,
driven by the fire, and the others be-
hind them.
Out OF Windows To Death.
A net had been spread beneath the
windows, and the girls began to
Jump.
Like rats out Of a burning bin"
was the way a fireman described that
pellmell descent. They bolted out OF
the windows; rolled up on the heads
of those below them and cascaded
of the fire-escape to the pavement
so feet below.
Some of them stood in the windows
outlined against the flames and
jumped clear; others from the land
ings; still others from the steps
where they stood.
The air was full of them and they
fell everywhere-into the net, on the
necks OF firemen, and Is OF them on
the hard stone slabs.
When the jumping ceased there
were eight dead in the street and the
cutters ran red with blood.
Eleven more were so badly crushed
that they died in hospitals.
Clouds OF smoke and showers OF
burning embers spread over the city
and rained down on neighboring
roofs. As the news flew-and 1t lost
nothing in the telling-panic spread
TO other factories, where many of the
girls in peril had friends and rel
atives, and several Arms had to shut
down for the day.
