Destroys Paintings and Statuary. WATER ADDS T0 DAMAGE Firemen Buried Under Debris of Falling Ceiling and Several Hurt—One May Die. BLAZE KINDLED BY WIRES. Fiantlc Students Break Through Lines In Vain Effort to Save Their Work. Fire wrought havoc in the National Academy of Design, at One Hundred and Ninth street end Amsterdam ave- nue, to-day, rulning the Interior of the building and destroying $100,000 worth of statuary, paintings and valuable art objects, Only heroic work on the part of the firemen saved the building, though in their weal the fire-fighters did almost as mucin damage with water as the flames had done. The building occupies the northeast corner cf One flundred and Nintn street. Flanking on the Amsterdam ay- enue side are rows of apartment-houses occupied by students of the different, clasess, ‘Their homes made splendia colgns of vantage from which to view the destruction of sanvases and stat- vary that they had been laboring on for months, There was wailing and weoping on every fire-escape withi range of visicn of the flames, and when at last the blaze was subdued a wild rush of art students completely demoralized the fire Hnes, A number of firemen were Injured by the collapse of a heavy celling on the second floor, one of them so badly that he will probably die, He is William Brown, and was removed to Bt, Luku's Hospital.

Every one of these lights was smashed and the entire framework on that side of the roof caved in, Thé breaking of this skylight and the collapse of the ceilings did the greatest damuge, practically wiping out the fine collec- tion of bronzes and statuary in the building. The paintings damaged by fire and water belonged to some of the most famous collections in the country, The entire Trumbull collection, a number of heads and portraits done by this artist friend of George Washing- ton, was damaged, ‘The fine portralt or Trumbull by Twibill was also damaged, it te feared, beyond repair, The collection of Samuel F, B, Morse, Inventor of the telegraph, was practi- cally destroyed, as was the well-known Suydam collection, The Ashenbach col- lection of heads and portraits by Diaz and a number of Elllott’s were seriously damaged, and Gilbert Stewart's portrait of Mrs. Wally, a famous picture in the Boston galleries since the Revolution, was rulned by water, Rare Works Under Debris, The Academy's collection of Wyatt ton paintings and a dozen portraits by Beale, as well as the Lazarus soholarship collection loaned by the National Academy at Washington tor the purpose of reproduction, were found under a pile of debris, The building Itself is yalued at $22,000, and so much of it was de- stroyed by fire that a new structure will have to be erected on the old foundation, Only heroic work on the part of firemen and a number of stu- dents who managed to force thelr way through the fire lines saved a numbor of priceless gems of art on the firat floor of the bullding, About the only paltitings that suffered on the matn floor were a “Laoccoon”’ and “The Mountain Stream," by J, F, Kennett, Both of these wore consumed, Fireman Willlam Brown was working in the antique room when the ceiling came down on him, He manageu w drag himself out and make his way to an Wea room, but he arrived just in time to fall under another collapsing celling. He was then taken out ungon- scious, but after his hurts had been at- tended to by an ambulance surgeon he went back Into the burning bullding.
