Tt was occupied by sixteen families of negroes, who were thrown {nto panic by the sudden and violent rush of the flames from the basement to the roof. ‘The fire started in the basement of the five-story building, It is not known what caured it. Policeman Jolin Bar- ron, of the West Forty-seventh street! Station, discovered it, and @t*r turn-| fhe in an alarm broke in the front) doors and. made a tour of the house.) | The flames had made great headway In the interior, and the inmates were so frightened when it wns scen that es-| by the stairways was hazardous) ; thet Barron had a hard time keeping! the .people from jumping before other offi¢ers and the firemen arrived. .
