men. climbing q seventy foot ladder
with a line Of hose, were trapped be-

bursts of flame that shot out from the

next door played heavy streams Of water
against the ladder and against the win

Battalion Chief Daniel Curtin said
after the fire was under control that
It was decidedly Of suspicious origin.
1t was the third fire in the house within
a few days. Sunday night one OF the
tenants discovered flames shooting from
the dumbwaiter shaft. and last Thurs
day the floor of Mrs. O'Neill's apart
ment on the third floor was found to
be on fire. These were quickly extin-
guished. but the one of yesterday had
gained such headway by the time the
firemen got there that the apartments
on the third. fourth and fifth floors. and
all of their contents, were destroyed.
None Of the tenants carried any insur-
ance. Chief Curtin attributes the fires
to pyromaniac. as he was not able to
learn that any OF the persons who live
in the house had enemies.
The flames yesterday broke ou: in a
carpet on the third floor stairway, ana
were discovered by Harriet Stevens. Ia.
who lived on the third floor. She ran
upstairs and told the Millers and the
O'Neills and then went back to her own
apartment. But by that time the flames
had gained such headway that she had
to run to the FIRE escape. Those up
stairs could not get down to the escape,
and went to the roof, where they made
their way across the plank bridge. which

RESIST SUIT
OVER PARTNERS THEFT
Ansver Claim, Based on Mort
gage Fraud.

Harold Swain, 176 Broadway, former
member OF Reeves. Todd & Swain.
lawyers. filed an answer In the Supreme
Court yesterday to the suit against the
frm by relatives of executors Of the
estate of Miss Amide '. Smith to re-
cover alleged losses resulting from mis-
conduct by Herbert Reeves. Reeves
was sentenced to three to six years In
Sing Sing. in June. 1917. after confess
ing he had obtained about 100000 by
forging mortgages.
In Ms answer Mr.. Swain explains he
retired from the firm In February, 1911.
upon the agreement Of the partners that
outstanding liabilities would be assumed
by the remaining members. Alfred G.
Reeves, Ambrose G.. Todd. Herbert
Reeves and Alexander S. Rowland. At
this time. he states. he had no knowl-
edge that Herbert Reeves had committed
any criminal act.
He explains that in the latter part of
1910 he learned Mr.. Reeves had with
drawn from a bank account OF the firm
certain moneys for his own personal ac-
count and had concealed this from his
partners; but II was understood at that
time, he says, that the funds we're not
the property Of client. but Of the firm.
When he retired, he states, he was in
formed arrangements were to be made
whereby his former associates would re-
store such Withdrawals from such prop
erty and assets Of Mr.. Reeves as we're
available
AS another defense he alleges on in
formation and belief that losses to the
Smith estate resulted from the neglect Of
trustees. which, he says. were duly adj
judicated In an action In the Supreme
Court by Mrs. o. II. p. Belmont against
John Prentice kellogg and Ethel r. Kel-
logg. In this action Mrs. Belmont and
the executors of the estates OF Mr. Kel-
logg and his mother. Ellen p. Kellogg
were directed to pay approximately
s121. 900 TO the heirs of Miss Smith for
losses while Mrs. Belmont, Mr.. Kellogg
and his mother were executors but not
/ In active management.
Mr.. Swain also cites the statute Of
limitations as further defense, stating
that more than six years elapsed be-
tween the occasion OF the cause OF ac-
tion and the suit. His answers is to the
suit OF Charles Martin Cook. surviving
executor Of the will Of Ellen +. Kellogg
and Ellen T. Kellogg. as executrix of the
will OF John Prentice Kellogg.
