TOMBS PRISONERS
IN PANIC AT FIRE
400 Bang Bars and Shout as
Smoke Comes From Across
the Street.

Four hundred prisoners in the Tombs
became panic stricken last night when
a fire started across the street at SO
and 81 Centre street and smoke rolled
in thick clouds through the windows and
into the cell tiers. They banged on the
bars and shouted for help, thinking the
prison was on fire. but became quiet
when Deputy Warden Patrick J. Mills
sent keepers through the building to tell
the prisoners that there was no danger.
The smoke became so heavy, however
that the windows on the Centre street
side of the Tombs were closed until the
firemen had extinguished the fire.
The building that caught fire was on
the southwest corner Of Leonard and
Centre streets, running about forty feet
on the latter and about seventy-five
feet on the former. 1t is the structure
in which Howe & Hummel. one of the
most noted of the old New York law
firms had their offices in the old days.
and 1t was erected more than fifty years
ago. Of late years 1t has been occupied
by the American Lumber Products Com
pany, which had stored the upper floors
with their woodenware product.
Patrolman Joseph O'Brien Of the Oak
street station was patrolling his beat
when he saw flames and smoke coming
from a window on the Centre street
side of the three story structure. He
turned in an alarm, and at the same
time sent for the reserves from the Oak
street station. The first alarm brought
Battalion Chief McKenna. who turned In
a second alarm to which Acting Chief
Smoky Joe Martin responded. The
searchlights of the department We're
brought from Brooklyn. and after an
hours hard work the fire was extin-
guished. During the fighting of the
flames water from the hose lines
splashed against the walls of the
Tombs. but Warden Mills said that so
far as he could find none of it got
inside the cell tiers. The damage was
several thousand dollars

DETECTIVE ARRESTED
AS A FAKE DRY AGENT
Hotel Alleged He Attempted
a sShaked0Un.'

George Hill. 35, of 1854 Amsterdam
avenue was arrested last night charged
with extortion and impersonating a Fed
eral agent. Detectives were looking for
two women who are said to have visited
many of the hotels of this city with Hill.
Hills arrest followed a complaint
made by the management of the Hotel
Walton, 104 West Seventieth street 1t
is alleged that on June 80 Hill, accom-
panied by another man and two women,
went to the hotel, sat down in the dining
room and ordered about SO worth of
food. When the meal was nearly over,
according to the complainants. Hill
pulled flask of whisky from his hip
pocket and poured a drink or two. Then
he called the head waiter. flashed a
shield. and told him the waiter who had
brought the food also had sold them the
whisky.
The waiter denied selling them the
whisky. but Hill was positive and served
him and the head waiter with genuine
summonses which evidently had been
stolen from prohibition headquarters. A
few minutes later while both walters
were protesting that they had nothing to
do with the whisky, HILL according to
the detectives, Indicated that everything
might be fixed up" for 5000. A restau-
rant In Sixth avenue was mentioned.
