ployed sby the Aetna company all the
employees on the first and second floors

culated the leap and struck the edge
OF the net, falling to the pavement.
Hoppe Dichl was also injured when
she leaped for the net.
Eugene Ntzhugh,, n foreman IN the
employ of the Aetna company, was
among the first to realize the serious
ness of the situation and guided sew
eral score of girls to safety down n
fire escape. Less than 30 minutes after

Of the building was hame-swept. The
floors of the upper part OF the building

bodies.
Among those who were early Mt the
scene was Rev. II. L. Quirk, assistant
rector of st. Joseph's church. He gave
the last rites to seven of the victims.
The priest worked nobly. helping the
iiremen to reach parts of the building

Some Of Them Most Prob
ably Fatally.

While Others Jumped to
Their Death.

trous factory fire here today rs lives

plant OF the building, Il four-story
STRUCTURE which took fire from an ex-
plosion on the third floor. Loss of life
and injury was heaviest among the

and was about to leap when the fire
men raised a ladder and brought her
down.
