Lives are supposec to have been lost in a tremendots explosion of naphtha and a resulting fire in the basement of the seven-story office and factory building at the southwest corner of Wooster and Bleecker streets to-day. The flames followed the explosion 30 quickly that there was no chance ; for those who were in the basement to escape. The exrlosion occurred in the store of W. H. Crookston & Bro., dealers in paints, oils and varnishes, who oc- cupy the entire basement. On the ground floor is the store of B. Waldman, manufacturer of cloaks and suite, A little cigar store and & barber shop occupy a store in the corner of the ground floor, separated from the clothing concern by a thin partition, , Neighborhood is Crowded. On the upper fédrs are -many” small factories employing scotes of women and men, and the neighborhood 4s ctowded with similar concerns. The explosion shook every bullding in the block, broke all the windows in the lower floors of the butlding in which it happened, and tore up the sidewalk on the Worcester street side. Whhin a few seconds flames were spouting out of the broken sidewalk twelve feet in the air, and a pall of smoke hung over the scene. The women employed in the factories ran to the windows, and from what they saw concluded that there was no escape for them unless they got out ina hurry, Some of them tried to jump, but cooler counsel prevailed and all the women in thé building got down in safety by way of the fire escapes. Hurt by Flying G Joseph Credo, a barber, was cut by fiying glass while endeavoring to get out of the building. Joseph Devite, an employee of the paint store, who was af work-on the sidewalk, was also injured ‘Dhey were treated by two ambulance surgeons who had been called to the blaze. ‘Three alarms were turned in and the neighborhood was full of fire apparatus, causing great confusion, the stree being already almost impassable be- cause of the number of trucks. Inspec- tor Harley went over from Headquarters and took charge of the police arrange- ments. Tt was impossible to learn how much material of an explosive nature was stored in the basement, and the firemen worked in continual fear that there might be a second explosion. ‘The blaze feeding up on the inflam- mable paints in the basement par- ticularly stubborn, although It was con- fined to the building.
