In the panic which occurred other mothers lost thelr reason and thre their children from the windows to the street below. That all were caught by the police and firemen and escaped serjous injury seems almost a miracle. The fol- lowing is the list of the injured: Max Balisburg, aged 20, burned about the face, hands and body. John J. Reardon, detective, cut on hands and face by falling glass. Michael Oestfeldt, suffering from shock and contusions. There were thirteen families in the house. The fire was discovered at 3:30 o’clock_ by the wife of the janitor, who aroused her husband, and together they went to the front of the house, giving the alarm. On the top floor of the tenement lived Morris Cohen, his wife and their children—Sophia, Harry and Benjamin The flames were already through the roof when they were awakened. Escape by the hallway was cut off. Groping their way through the smoke to the window, Cohen picked up the boy Harry and, call- ing to his wife to follow, got out on the fire escape and started to descend. Mrs. Cohen carried the baby in ber arms and the boy Benjamin followed. Out on the fire escape the flames and smoke which burst from the windows below them sep- arated the members of the family, and only Cohen and the boy reached the street. When the firemen were finally able to reach the top floor they found the bodies of Mrs. Cohen and the other two children, blarklnn?:' and burned, lying e escape landing. m"rr‘x}—mdg:nase VY the fire 1s estimated at $10,000. @ il @ CALIFORNIANS GAIN PROMOTION Army Officers in This State Among Those Advanced in Rank.

The night watchman had just gone on duty and the other employes had gone home. The fire burned fiercely for three hours, during which time the fire- men worked to prevent its spreading to the other bulldings.
