Nearly ail the tenants made their exit from the burning buildings, clad only in their “night dresses, by way of the fire escdpes and were taken care of by the neighbors. The loss on the buildings and on the furniture of the tenants will aggregate ubout $85,000, only partly insured. ‘This is the eighth fire that “has occurred in these houses during the last ten months, and the police and residents in the neighborhood are firmly con- vinced that they were set on fire.
