FLAMES SPREAD RAPIDLY Conflagration Breaks Out in Celluloid Factory and a Wild Panic Results, Many Persons Jumping From Win- dows Without Waiting to Raise the Sashes—Junior Member of Firm Among the Dead. New York, Nov. ¢.—Eight workmen and one hoy lost their lives and twen- ty other workmen were severely hurt by jumping from windows during a fire that destroyed the celluloid fac- tory of William Morrison & Son, Brooklyn. The fire started on the second foor of the building from some unknown cause and spread rapidly throngh the building, cutting off the escape of the workmen who were at their benches. There was a wild panic and many jumped from the windows without stopping to raise the sashes, being cut by flying glass and hurt by strik- ing the ground. Three alarms were sounded, bring- ing all of the available fire apparatus in the district and Chief Croker from New York. The fire was a hard one to control, as the celluloid exploded firemen back from the burning build- ing. The work of getting the dead and injured out of the building called for desperate: eflorts on the part of the fircmen and several of them were burued while doing so. One of those who lost their lives was William Morricon, twenty-four years old, junior member of the firm of Morrison & Scn. Two other mem- bers of the firm, Robert Morrison, Sr., and Robert Morrison, Jr., were taken to the hospital. , The elder Morrison ‘was unconscious. Electrical Storm in lllinois.
