HEART REND|NG SCENES
Twenty Four Families
Were in Apartment
Which Burned
(By Associated Press }

New York, sept. oO.-A madman'S
mania for fire caused the death of
seven persons, one of them a four
year-old child, thrown from window
by terrified mother, early today, is
being sought tonight by the police.
The authorities are acting on infor-
nation that an attempt was made to
set the building next door afire short
ly' before the apartment house at PAL
West Tooth street burst into flames,
Other Investigations are being car
ried on by the residents of the upper
west side where this mornings fire
occurred. Fear that the supposed
pyromaniac may continue to operate
is aroused by the story of Henry
Dent, who, discovered baby carriage
ablaze in the hallway in the house
next door to the building which was
burned. The carriage had been stuff
ed with rags and oil, and the strips
of carpet along the hallway saturat-
ed. Dent and his daughter extin-
guished the blaze.
A moment afterwards he saw
man come from the basement and
glance around the hall. Dent asked
him for what he was searching.
Il smelled smoke he said, and l
wanted to look around"
The intruder got away. A few
hours afterwards in the building
next door seven persons had been
burned to death, scores injured and
several of the "a families who occu-
pied the house had been saved only
by the spectacular work of firemen.
Mrs. Herman Hoff and William
Hummell, whose two sons were lost
in the fire, will probably die, it was
said at the hospital tonight.

Business men who expect wages

their presumption and their hope" 4"
Julius II. Barnes. president of the
Chamber of Commerce Of the United

here yesterday He added:
The great problem before US
today is TO so distribute the
wealth produced so that it will
not concentrate into the hands

broad purchasing market neces.
sary to absorb our production.
And the greatest of these prob

the farmer will not lose out in
marketing Of his crops.
An economic system that can
give us more for everyone-more
automobiles, more general educa-
ton, more modern plumbing. more
graphophones and bigger real
wages must be preserved. 1t be-
