One life was lost, and many lives were ‘Imperilied by a fire in the six-story dou- ble fist-house at 370 Columbus avenue at ¥ o'clock this morning. ‘The flames started on one of the upper] hi Goors and had already gained great head- lway when discovered. In s very brief time escape by the rusual ways was cut off. ‘Women and children were carried down ,the fire-encapes, men climbed by the woofs over adjoining houses, and som: {women tried to jump from the window: One woman, identified ae Mrs. Rose Kennelty, was found ‘ead, suffocated by the smoke, with the clothes burned from her body, when the flames had been extinguished. Many more would doubtless have been had {t not been for the efforts ©f two butchers’ helpers. ‘On the ground floor of the building, E. ‘rnetein had a butcher shop. He lives ‘on the second floor just above it. With the butcher and his wife and two chil- Gren there lives Mrs. Rebecca Goldstein, ® sister-in-law of the butcher. ‘The butcher had been down in his shop eeeing that his men were doing their morning work properly, and was return- ing for his breakfast when a wild scream rang through his rooms. He rushed to where his wife was sitting at the break- fast table, just as Mrs. Goldstein came in from the kitchen crying that the house was on fire. Arustein tried to go into the kitchen, but was met by a burst of flame and @moke. Then he and his family ran screaming down the stairs. In the butcher shop the helpers, Chas. Kircher and William Druller, heard the cries of the frightened family, and met them as they rushed into the street. “Go up und wake the rest of them,” yelled the butcher, and the two men ran up the stairs without a moment's hesi- tation, ‘The fire was all in the rear portion of the house, 30 the two men saw nothing Of the flames until they got to the top floor.

Cozier carried a child and Kircher and “Druller each carried one. From the windows on the floors be- neath there came flames, and the three men had narrow escapes as they passed through it on thelr way down. ‘Once safely on the ground, Cozler mene acter his family, while the butch- pers went up the escape again to continue their work of rescue.

Mr. Moore has been making a personal investigation of the Department, and travelling all over town as @ sort of Haroun Al Raschid and finding out for himself how matters stood. He said this morning, th had learned that many of the Tammany employees of the Department have been acting in concert to cast discredit upon Col.
