Rssists Efforts Of Firemen VINO fouF
100000 Gallons OF water IN
Building.

New York. July ls.--tBy The Asso'
ciated Press)-A stubborn puLL1'''s
warehouse fire in the Greenwich Nlh"se
section OF the city broke out ABOUT .
o'clock this morning. burned 'hrouS II
,hs day and was s'fll blazing tonight
after nearly 1 million gallons Of water
had been PLAYED on the flames by torty
hose lines.
With tho flames checked hut not con-
ouered. Investigation showed that t"7
fireman had been killed. more Were
missing, and about 10 persons had peen
taken to hospitals seriously injured ana
more than l75 had received first ala
treatment at three emergency stations
opened by the Red Cross. In addition,
about 500 families were driven from
their homes in the bohemian quarter
and tonigh, we're barred hy tho police
from returning, crest tho Warehouse
walls collapse
Mysterious Black SMOKE
The outstanding feature Of III. fire
was the mysterious pungent black
smoke that rolled out OF tho building
soon after the first blasts.
II came in never-enuInC clouds, set
tlinS down about tho base Of the store
house and binding the fire fighters 30
that they could not see the flames.
Though a midsummer sun blazed down
until late in the afternoon. when thun-
dersouall broke. tho firemen found 1t
black as midnight and rigged great
searchlights in their efforts TO pierce
the enfolding darkness. Baffled as TO
the cause Of tho fire. experts in the en-
ploy Of the city sought all day to solve
the mystery. One story which particul-
arly attracted the attention OF the in
yestigations was tod members OF the
rolice bomb SQUAD by pr. Anthony
Paone dentist. who lives just oppo-
rite tho warehouse. Paone. who turn
ed in the first alarm. asserted that just
before the first explosion. he had seen
three men with push cart stop in front
Of the building. carry in several boxes
and then emerge. He advanced the the
ory that incendiaries had started tho
blaze.
District Attorney Ranton. following a
conference with fire department off,
Gals said late this afternoon. that an
explosion OF i case Q: magnesium pow
der caused the fire.
