1900 Inmates, Some DAN
gerous Mad Men, Are
Removed To Safety

MILLEDGEVILLE, Ca, April 5
-R-Injury and loss of life avert
ed, property damage was checked
today in the wake Of a night blaze
that drove 700 men patients from
their quarters at the State hos
pital for the insane.
A restless inmate, tearing through
the ceiling to reach the roof and
escape, set the fire in the attic of a
35.year old building near bedtime
last night, DR.. T. c. Clodstelter, a
resident doctor, reported.
A two.hour battle conquered the
flames with the damage confined
chiefly to the roof, attic and top
floor Of the three,story, four-wing
brick structure in which the fire
originated.
Although occupants of the sprawl
ing building were characterized as
among the most violent of the
asylum's 1900 population-some Of
them as potentially dangerous
all were moved safely through a
covered passageway to an adjoining
building Of identical construction.
Even before the hre-ighters ar.
rived, Dr. Ciodstelter, and a group
of attendants were forming the
mentally sick men in orderly lines
and marching them out. Other at
tendants scrambled to the attic
and rescued the would.be runaway
who set the fire.
