f # BUSY SHOPPERS FLED, A Three-Alarm Fire at 936 Broadway Scattered Them. {t Defied the Efforts of the Firemen for Over an Hour. Art Goeds Damaged by Water-- Cable Cars Blocked. Policeman McCullagh, patrolling his beat on Broadway this afternoon at 1 o'clock, aw smoke coming from a win- dow of the top floor of the big brown- stone bullding at 5 and 937 Broadway. ‘The floor is occupied by Pach Brothers nd {s used as a photographic studio. ‘The street was crowded with shoppers ft the time, and when they saw the big policeman run to a fire-box and pull an alarm they almost became panic- atricken. Meaowhile the smoke, which was un- usually dense, found vent in a second and then a third window, and before the engines arrived it was pouring out of half a dozen windows. Tt does not take long for a crowd to eollect in the neighborhood of Twenty- third street and Broadway, and the com- s bined efforts of the police could scarcely stablish fire lines. ‘The firemen managed to keep the blaze confined to the top floor, but it took them over an hour to get it under con- trol. In view of the fact that thousands of gallons of water were poured into the building, it is more than likely that the damago by the latter element will be unusually severe. ‘The building is on the southwest cor- ner of Twenty-second street and Broad- way, and extends through to Fifth ave- Bue. The ground floor of No. 935, running through to Fifth avenue, is occupied by Abraham Besthoff & Son, dealers in fancy leather goods. The second floor is occupied by 8. W. Seybell, dealer in ladies’ straw hats. J. F. Bardoine, Gealers in tailors’ woollens, have the entire third floor of both buildings on Broadway, und run through to Fifth avenue. On the fourth floor are T. E. Bchoaff & Co., carpets, and Geoffrey & Co., importers of diamond jewelry, rent the whole of the fifth floor. B. W. Schumann & Son, importing Jewellers, have the first and second floors of No. 937 Broadway. The fifth avenue and Twenty-second street corner on the ground floor was until recently eccupled by Deutsch & Co., ladies’ tailors, and the floor above is occupied by Van Geesbeck & Arkell, importers and manufacturers of Oriental rugs, ‘The fire broke out on Pach's negative fetouching-room, and the first intimation those inside had of it was when Miss ‘Hillke, en employee, screamed “Fire!” At the time there were on the floor, besides the thirty employees, twenty ‘pustomers, and all hurried down to the Btreet as rapidly as possible. ‘The firm of Pach Bros. is composed of f" brothers, G. W., Oscar and Gott- i After the fire was under control (Oscar Pach sald the damage would ‘probably be $20,000, on which there was 610,000 insurance. ‘Most of the firms in the building had 8n opportunity to put their valuable Btock away. Schumann & Co, had a waluable collection of paintings, of which they managed to remove all but two. The building ts owned by Richard (Waterman, of 11 Wall street. The fire resulied in the blocking of the able cars, and for over an hour there Were no cars running on lower Broad- way. The block extended a couple of miles up and down the line. Phe damage to the buildings 1s about $15,000, while the damage to the stocks of the several firms will amount to at Yeast, $200,000, the greatest portion of which 1s covered by insurance, ‘A picture in the store of Shumann Co, entitled “Columbus in the Stor: and which is ruined, was the largest picture on exhibition’ at the World's ‘air.
