LUECOAT HERO" CAUGHT IN FIRE. Potloeman Haven Fatally Burned While Attempting to Rescue Families Who Were Trapped In Blazing Building in Brooklyn 1 | | | ‘While attempting to rescue the ocou- ts of @ burning building at No, 206 ‘ashington street, Brooklyn, to-day Policeman James J. Haven, of the Adams street station, was probably fatally burned. Policemen McAuley and Croak, while assisting him, were so badly scorched that their faces will be scarred for life. B. F. Berulson, of the Salvage Corps, by his bravery and cool-headedness, saved a family of nine persons on the top floor from being cremated. ‘The fire was discovered at 1.80 o'clock in a four-story building at No. 306 ‘Washington street. The building ex- tends back to No. 331 Fulton street. The ground floor 1s ocoupied by the Wells Fargo Wxpress Company. On the sec- ond floor lived Reuben Lowenstein, his ‘wife and four children. Lowenstein had @ dyeing establishment beside his living apartment. On the two upper floors Myed several families aggregating ‘twenty persons. The flames started in a closet on the When awakend he ran to « help, and mot his wife and olilldren to the street in safety. Assigtant Foreman Davenport, of Bn- fine Company No. 106. in Pierrepont Street, about 160 feet away from the burning building, heard Lowenstein’s) ‘ories, saw the blaze and turned in thre @arma. Then with Firemen Flynn and MeDonough, he ran to the Fulton atreet side of the house, put up soaling lad- ders and began to take down the occu- pants of the third floor, who were cut off from escape through the hall and ran to the windows, Polite: m Caught in Hall. Meanwhile Policemen Haven, Mc- Auley and Croak entered the Washing- ton street side of the building and tried, he to get to the top floor to arouse the oc- oupants. The flames caught them in the |} hallway. Haven was overcome by the smoke and fainted. McAuley and Cronk tried to drag him to safety until the flames scorched thelr faces and bands and blinded them, and they left their companion to his face and crawled to the front windows. Fireman Flynn heard from them thit Haven was still in the hall, and, w: ping a towel about his face, he wi back into the fire and dragged him to @ front window. He was passed dow a ladder. Haven did not recover con- sciousness until long after he reached the Brooklyn City Hospital. He inhaled so much flame that the doctors say he has smull chance to live. Berulson saw no one at the windows of the fourth floor, and taking a scal- ing ladder he drew himself up, foor by floor, until he got in the topmost row of windows Inside he found a family of nine sleeping soundly. They were Mr. and Mrs John Murray, their son and daughter-in-law, and a baby; Edward Murray, Daisy, Fred and Wal- ter Balley, @ lodger. Berulson took the oi couple, dragged them into the hall- way and pushed them up the ladder to the roof. Daisy and Fred Murray he took to’ the front windows and tied them to the sills, Then he dragged the younger Murray and his wife to the windows and directed Walter Bailey to take the street side of the house Firemen to the Rescue, The firemen in Fulton street put firemen spied him.
