An Exciting Scene on Pennsylvania Avenue * Early This Morning. NARROW ESCAPE OF MR. AND MRS. PULLMAN AXD THEIR PAUGHTER—THEIR LIVES SAVED BY ‘THE EXERTIONS OF A PRINTER—COMPLAINT OF THE INEFFICIENCY OF THE FIREMEX. Screams of fire from the third-story window of No. 935 Pennsylvania avenue about 6:90 o'clock this morning was the sensational begin- ning of a chapter of exciting incidents. Mr. E. J. Pullman, the well-known photographer, and his wife and daughter were in their apartments in the third story of the building at the time, and they escaped from the burning building with considerable difficulty and only after assistance had reached them. Mrs. Pullman had got out of bed but a few minutes beforethe fire started and her husband and daughter were still sleeping when her screams aroused them. Mr. Pullman was on the third floor, while the daughter, Miss Ollie Puliman, a young lady eighteen years old, was in her room on the floor above. WHERE THE FIRE STARTED. ‘The,fire started ina small room on the third floor, where there was a quantity of ether and other chemicals, and it took but short while for the flames to cut off the only avenue of eecape. : ‘Owing to the nature of tho material in the hotograph gallery and supply room it was evi- nt the inmates of the rooms above were in great danger, and Mrs, Pullman well under- stood her perilous position. Afterarousing her husband and daughter she screamed from the front window for help. Although so early in the morning it took bit a few minutes for a large crowd to appear, but they seemed to be overcome by the condition of affairs in the burning building and Mra Pullman saw no evidence of an attempt on the part of those in tho street to lend assistance. Seconds to her socmed as hours, but No. 2 Engine Company responded to a call for help before an alarm had been turned in, and just four min- utes after they left the house an alarm was sounded from box No. 152. ‘MR. MATCHETT GOES TO WORK. In the meantime the screams of Mrs. Pull- man had attracted the attention of Mr. H. B. | Matchett, the printer at 10th street and Penn- vivania avenue, who did such good work ening persons from Tux Stan building fire, Persons, and so rescue them if possible. ‘He went to Ellis’ music store, a the barning building, for the purpose o' breaking open the door, so that he could get to one of the upper floors, ‘Don't do that,” the crowd shouted, but the printer, seeing that the only means of doing any good, broke open the door ond ran to the upper floor. IN A PERILOUS POSITION. By this time Mr. and Mrs. Pullman were at the front windows, with the flames only a short distance from them. It was getting warmer and warmer for them and in a short time Mrs. Follman knew she would have to make a leap to the sidewalk if some one did not reach her. Such a leap meant sure death, but there was no other alternative. While _ the husband and “wife were at these windows the daughter was at the yindow on the floor above them. She, too, was in an exceedingly dangerous position. ' If rhe should leap she would have twelve or fifteen feet further to fall than would her parents, but the flames had reached her room and something had to be done, and there was but a short time in which to do it. ‘MISS PULLMAN’S RESCUE, Mr. Matchett proved her mascot, for he ap- peared at the window of the adjoining building and by stepping out on the fancy work of the building he reached over and took the young lady by the hand. It was a dangerous place anda critical moment, but she made the jour- ney in safety ‘md entered the Ellis building through the window. i Having succeeded in the rescue of the daugh- ter Mr. Matchett proceeded to the floor below todo what he could for the older people. Mrs. Pullman was at the window next to the Ellis building, while Mr. Pullman was on the sill of the middle window. No. 2 Engine Company had arrived, It seemed like half an hour to Mrs. Pullman before the life line was taken off the hose carriage. MR. AND MES. PULLMAN GET THE LINE. The fireman with the line hastened through the door of the Ellis building,which Mr. Match- ett had broken open, and between Mr. Match- ett and the firemen the life line was banded to both Mr. and Mrs. Pullman. They managed to fasten the line about their waists and were ready to jump or get away from the flames in the best possible manner, for by this time the heat was intense. At the window where Mr. Pullman was the flames had begun to touch the moldings. He drew himself out on the win- dow sill and closed the window behind him, hoping to be able to keep off the flames until a ladder could be raised upon which he could descend to the pavement. A JUMP FOR LIFE. “Don’t jump,” shouted the crowd, excitedly, but behind him the window glass was breaking from the intense heat and the flames wore scorching his beard. He could stand it no longer, and in the absence of a ladder he made a leap for life. Fortunately he did not go all the way to the sidewalk, but landed over the front door, where the sign, awning and cornice make a narrow Isnding. ‘From ‘there it was a comparatively easy task to reach the pavement. . A PET DOG SAVED. During the exciting and trying times Mrs, Pullman did not forget to save her pet dog, which che handed across to Mr. Matchett, and although shouts of “Throw him out the win- dow” were heard Mr. Matchett gently handed the canine in the window and again turned his attention to Mrs. Pullman. SUSPENDED BY A ROPE. The rope around her waist was securely fastened, as it must have been to hold her, for she is a heavy woman, weighing not far short of 200 nape ‘The flames had about reached her, and in the absence of any better way of escap- ing them she dropped from the window sill and was held, suspended in the air by Mr. jeMatchett and the firemen. The rope was slackened as speedily as possible, until Mrs, Pullman was landed on the little over the windows. She was not badly injured, but ee was almost more than she could \r. ‘There being no further danger of loss of hu- man life the minds of the crowd and firemen were at case,and the firemen soon had the building flooded with water and succeeded in confining the flames to the rooms occupied by the Pullmans, All of their rooms in the front of the building were completely gutted, but, strange to say, soveral purses books in which there was money were found in ‘the debris with the money not dest red, Mr. John F. Sexton aided in the rescue of the Pull ‘mans. Howard Wright, a fireman, member of No. 6 company, did some work in saving more than $3,000 worth of diamond Jewelry, which he turned over to Mrs. Pullman. On the third ge hela ey were the offices and rooms Messrs. Ira nes, manufacturing we ler, and Charles &. Bacon’ plato. printes the former establishment the floor was wet, no damage was dono, while in Mr. Bacon's siderable work was rendered valueless by i Fiz DAMAGE TO ME. TEEL’S STOCK. With the exception of Mr. Pullman the prin- cipal damage was done to Mr. Teel’s furnishing store, onthe ground floor. Almost the entire stock was soaked with water, which had " in Ee tae ‘beeen she scloutin ‘answering ‘and telephone calls. Tho damage to his stock he estimated at between 95,000 and $7,000, which is fully msured. oe ee en a: eek See res. % Chief Parris and Mr. Pullman hed a tilt over the affair, during which language was used, and although it at one time that their discussion would in something worse. no violence was at- PROCEEDINGS AT THE SESSIONS OF THE coM- MITTEE YESTERDAY—TRE SERVICES OF THE OUTOOING OFFICERS RECOGNIZED AND PLEAS ANT SPEECHES MADE iy MESSRS. CLARKSON AND PAssETT. ‘WHAT THE FIREMEN Say. ‘On the part of the firemen it is claimed that No. 2 company went out on a local at 6: that track C was on its way out of the house when the alarm séunded at 6:44. The firemen think that they should not be med for what they did, as they do not think any time was lost or that their work was ineffectual. They claim credit for assisting Mra. Pullman from the building, as their life line was ased and they were there to use it. In| this connection they give Mr. Matchett credit for assisting them.
