Candle Starts Blaze.

A taper set near the coffin in which
lay the body of Emanulia, daughter of
John Lomonco, burned dimly in a room
four stories above the street in a tene-
ment at SO Catherine street Saturday
night. Its yellow flare threw into sill
houette the forms of watchers, friends
of the Lomonco family, at the side of the
bier. The wind coming through an open
window, caused the burning candle to
flicker and a piece OF the satin hanging
over the coffin caught fire. The blaze
spread quickly to draperies at the par
Tor doorway.
Angelo, brother of the dead girl
rushed to the flaming cloth, tore 1t down
and threw 1t to the floor. but the flames
caught another curtain and In a moment
the room appeared full OF fire. Angelo
lifted the casket-a small one for
Emanulia was only 13--and carried It to
the street.
Several watchers followed him, and
one rang in a fire alarm. John Lo-
monco, father of the dead girl. and some
Of the others stayed to fight the flames
with pitchers and pals OF water. The
hands of several mourners were badly
burned before the fire was put out. Some
articles OF furniture were burned.
Afterward Angelo recarried the casket

he thought was lighted match flicker
ing on the floor of the hall on the Sec

in front of the doorway of the apart
ment occupied by the family of DOM
mick Sabotino.
Brennan extinguished the fuse and
took the bamb to the West 1920 street

he had seen two men leaving the house
as he entered. but had thought nothing
Of II at the time.
Sabotino informed detectives that his
son Dominick had been shot about a
year ago. but that the man who did the
shooting was later released. as he was
considered mentally incompetent and no
motive could be foLnd. The Sabotino
apartment was also robbed during the
