FIRE MIGRANT IS
FOUND FROZEN UP
Two Lines of Hose Fail to
Work When Laid to Quench
Flames Yesterday.
ONE SOON THAWS LOOSE
Other Fails to Emit a Drop to Aid
Firemen in Fighting Blaze at
Connolly Home.

The fact that two fire hydrants
were frozen, one solidly and the other
partly, seriously handicapped the de-
partment yesterday afternoon for
made that the roof of the Major H. c.
Connolly residence, 1900 Second ave-
nue., was on fire. The blaze was dis
covered at 1920 and the alarm was
sent in through Box 81. The fire
wagons hurriedly responded and laid
ner of First avenue and Twelfth street
and the other from Third avenue. By
that time the blaze was going at a
merry clip due to the west wind which
blew the flames under the shingles
and gave access to the attic.
WATER FAILS FIREMEN.
After the hose was laid the hydrants
were opened, but no streams of water
burst forth. Not even a drop came
from the hydrant at First avenue and
the trickle from the hose from Third
avenue emitted was of no use to the
hose, this time to a hydrant at Thir-
teenth street and Second avenue, and
it proved to be all right and in a few
minutes the men were busily engaged
quenching the flames. A minute later
the hose from Third avenue came to
| life and was brought into action and
the fire was soon extinguished.
ROOF Is DESTROYED.
Practically the entire roof of the
Connolly home was destroyed and
considerable damage was done to the
attic and TO the furniture. Fortunate
~ little of the water that was used
in putting out the fire got through
into the house, and for that reason
the damage was not as great as might
otherwise have been the case.
TESTING OUT HYDRANTs.
Commissioner Jonas Bear, upon
learning of the frozen MIGRANTS, or
ldered an employe of the waterworks
department to begin testing out the
fire hydrants at once so as to prevent
a recurrence of such a condition.
All the hydrants in the business dis
trict will be tested and thawed on
in case they are frozen and then thu
factory district will be attended 70
after which the man will test the hy
drants in the residence districts.
