MR, FROHMAN’S FIRE, Blaze in the Theatri- cal Manager’s Residence. Elegant Hallway and Walting-Room Ruined by the. Flames. Ia the Columbus Avenue District and Its Origin Puzzling. a other mysterious fire in the terror- est-side uptown district broke out ily before last midnight, and, like all receding ones, it seems an absolute sibility to explain its origin. This the house of Theatrical Manager jel Frohman was visited, and the ‘pants had a very narrow escape ‘death. To-day the Fire Marshal is + investigating. anager Frohman’s house, 159 West nty-ninth street, is @ five-story and ment terra cotta and granite bulld- with a remarkably wide hall. The 1 is practically a walting-room, and ‘was furnished with a full sult of furnt- ture, many valuable ornaments and an dmmense hall rack. Stuffed birds of all Kinda eet off the furniture, among them pelng an imme.se engle. ‘Mr, Frohman at present in Europe, but his father, four sisters and’ three servants are ving at the house. ‘The family retired last night at 10.15 g’cleck. There were no fires in the house and all the lights were out except two gas jets in the hall. Mr. Frohman, sr., was the only member of the house- hold absent. He was at the theatre. About 11 o'clock he returned hom ing the hall door with a latchke: put hat, coat and umbrella on the hall rack, then turning out the lights, he walked Upstairs to his room and was goon sound asleep. He declared after- Wards that he had not been smoking. Half an hour later one of the daugh- ters was aroused from sleep by a stifiln @ensation. She found the house fill th smoke and, jumping up, awakened all the other her father, who arouse: inmates, ‘Then, with his daughters be- hind him, he rushed downtairs, ‘The hallway was a mass of flames. The fire had apparently started in leather-upholstered chair beside the rack. The latter was blazing awa —e rily, nearty fourteen feet, to the opposn. wall, setting fire to the stuffed eagle, The ‘walls are wainscoted, and the wood work for about three yards about the ‘hall rack was also blazing. ‘The house is supplied with a patent tinguisher, and with this the were extinguished, In the meat however, an alarm had been turned in, but there was nothing for the firemen to do on their arrival. ‘The hall was pretty badly damaged, and the Frohmans estimate their loss at something less than $1,500. It 1s barely possible’ that some loose matches in Mr. Frohman's coat pockets gnited when putting it on the rack. The coat itself probably caught fire first, and the rest would be easy to explain. —__—_— = ___ New Wlectric Buoys at the Baz. ‘The Western Union cable steamer and the Aghthouse Department steamers John Rotgers and Gardenia are engaged to-day in laying an @lectrio eadle to connect the newly installed elec- trio plant on Sandy Hook with the buoys in Gedney Channel.
