THRILLING RESCUES AT BLAZE
IN LARGE APARTMENT HOUSE
J
Fourteen Families Aroused from
Slumber at Broad and Division
Streets Shortly Before Midnight.
FIREMEN SAVE THE BUILDING
The Owner, Tube Dimond, and Fam
ily Were Marooned at St. George
Until This Morning.
Many during rescues occurred ut a fire which damaged the large frame lene- ;
went house of Tube Dimond at Broad and Division streets to the extent of sev
eral thousand dollars shortly after midnight, and, but for the excellent work
of the firemen, the entire building would have been consumed. While no one waa
hurt, the tenants fled to the street in their night robes, some even forgetting
their children who were taken out by the firemen and several men who were on
the sceno before the companies arrived.
The fire started in the grocery store of Nathan Newman, which occupied
I he corner of the building, but it» origin in unknown. John Amos, who lives
nearhr, wae returning home from the Majestic theatre where he had been help
ing Truckman A. F. Munoz load aecnery on hie truck, when as he neared the
•tore he noticed a bright light inside. This was at 11.50 o'clock. He ran and
looked in through the door and, seeing a blaze inside, broVe the glass panel
tanking that be eould put out the flames. In kicking out the glass Amos cut
hie ankle, but, undaunted, lie tried to reach the blaze. The smoke drove him
back, eo he ran to box 62 at Washington and First streets and sent in an alarm
for the firemen,
Amos then ran back to Hie building
where, with tho assistance of Adolph
Kase and Michael Harrigan, the Bleep
ing tenant* were aroused. By thie time
I he flames had gained considerable head
way and were creeping up the front of
the building. Immediately over the
store Mrs. Wolff Slappek and her three
children were soundly sleeping and on
tho third floor, directly above, Mr. and
Mrs. (J. If. Prnno and family were Ιο
ί ng likewise.
These two families were in Uie great
eet danger as the flames now enveloped
the front of the building. The rescu
ers aroused them first and they Were
none to soon for the ajiartments. were
filled with dense smoke and Mrs. Prane
was nearly overcome. When little Ju
lius Slappek, who slept in the front
loom/ on Broad street, was awakened,
he saw the^-flnmes shooting paet the
window^ and with his smaller brother
ran to the street. Mrs. Prane was so
weak 1'rom tho smoke that. bIio had to
be curried out. Abraham Davidson
«roused the Slapppk fimily and assisted
Mrs. Hlappek to tlie street, as her hus
band wus out. of town.
Although the bililding was occupied
by fmirteeii families, no one wae hurt
in spite of their hurry to reaeh the
street. When aroused, the tenants, see
ing the smoke in their rooms and hear
ing the crackling of the flames, were
so frightened tha^ they only thought of
reaching safety and home ran to the
street leaving their children ami babies
in the rooms.
•
Aged Man Carried Out.
Michael Harrigan alone brought five
babies from the upper floors of the
tenement house to the street and J.
Kaufman carried out Kelman David
son, seventy years old who lived on the
first floor next to the blazing store.
Kaufman placed the aged man, who
could not walk, on his back in spite of
his weight, and carried him to the sec
ond floor of his own home across the
street, where he gave hiiu in charge of
friends.
There were many other rescues and
within β short time after the fire had
been discovered, every person was out
of the building. The firemen arrived
in the meantime and, while some de
voted their attention to fighting the
flames, others ran through the apart
ments to make sure that no one was
Inside.
The firemen, by excellent work under
the direction of Chief Mead, confined
tho fire to the grocery store and the
two apartments above. When the com
panieu arrived the flames were licking
the entire front of the building and· it
looked as if the structure was doomed.
Chief Mesd at once sent, in 2-2 the call
for the Lincolns' steamer and later 1-3,
the Washingtons' call. Although the
McClellan and Lincoln steamers were
at the fire, neither wns need as the
pressure of the city water was excellent.
With the aid of four companies, Chief
Mead poured tons of water on the
flames and managed to save the build
ing, although the store and tho two
apartments directly above on the second
and third floors were gutted.
The firemen worked harder than ever
last night and at 2 o'clock this morn
ing the fire was declared out and the
back taps sounded.
Damage Over $5,000.
Although no accurate estimate has
been made of the damage It will, in
all probability, exceed $5,000. Tho
building ie damaged about $2,500 and
the stock in the grocery store valued
at $2,000, was a total loss. Mr. Di

MAYOR WANTS
STREEULEAR
Writes to Police Chief and
Street Commissioner In
Regard to Matter.
FREE OF SNOW AND ICE
Mayor Bollschwéiler is anxious to
have all sidewalks cleaned immediately
after a enow storm an<l not left in the
condition they were after the last one.
Ho also wants all streets Tiejit clear
from incumbrances.
The mayor has had City Clerk LaBoe
look up the ordinances regarding these
matters and today sent the following
to Chief Burke of the Police, and Street
Commissioner Adair: ·
■'Dear 8ir:—
"I am enclosing η copy of a few sec
tions of ordinances of our city, per
taining to snow and incumbrances on
our streets and sidewalks. It is my
desire that I ho street commissioner and
the police department work in unison in
the matter of keeping the streets and
sidewalks clear or snow and ice and
other incumbrances. As you know,
building material is not to be placed
in a street without the permission of
the Street commissioner. If the police
department could be kept informed of
these permissions the patrolmen would
known just what obstructions were
there by authority, and could report
others to the street commissioner, or
havo them removed.
"As to snow and ice the police de
partment could render great assistance
to the street commissioner in notifying
property-owners of their duty, etc., in
the time of a storm and we would uot
have a repetition of the bad condition
of eidewalks as we had in our recent
snowstorm.
"Trusting you will get together and
work with -each other on these lines,
I am,
"Yours very truly,

TWINING LAWYER IS '
UP FOR DISBARMENT
Upertal to th€ EVENING KBWB.
Trenton, Jan. 2ft : —'Thomas P.
Fay, a well known Lons Branch law
yer, who defended Albert C. Twi
ning, former officer of the Monmouth
Trust & Safe Deposit Company, wai
cltled today to «how cause before
the supreme court why he should
not be disbarred from, practicing
law. The grounds upon which the
disbarment proceedings are based
are the actions of Mr. Fay in filing
a rule in the supreme court and then
taking out a writ of error staying
the imprisonment of Twining in
direct disobedience of its said-to-be
orders of the court.
Mr. Fay was here today trying to
get the branch supreme court to fix
a date for hearing an application for
a retrial of Twining. Just as he
was leaving the court room at noon
he was served with notice of the die
barment proceedings which were in
institnted In the name of Attorney
General Edmund Wilson in accord
ance with directions given by the
supreme court late yesterday after
noon.
Mr. Fay had apparently not anti
cipated any such action and wae
greatly surprised when served with
the notice. He left at once to catch
a train for which he was leaving
when the rule was served.
Soon after the order was served
upon Mr. Fay he «nid: "The order
was entered exactly as I understood
the court ordered. If there Is any
difference of opinion as to what ac
tually took place in court It was
surely a misunderstanding. I have
been practicing too many year#·'to
enter an order different from what I
understood the order of the (»urt.
Ko client's interests demands that a
counselor should do anything not in
accordance with strict integrity as
an officer of the court.
"It Is unfortunate that any ques
tion of this kind should arise until
Mr. Twining's Interests are disposed
of. Reputable lawyers ha^e too
much respect for the corfrt and the
Judges to wilfully violate any direc
tions of a Judge or a court."
The rule, whtfih was filed with the
clerk, recites that last Saturday Mr.
Fay appeared before Justfib Vool·
heee and Justice Minturn, who were
sitting in Newark ai a specially* con
stituted branch of the court, and
asked for an order vacating the .con

men within the past few weeks. will
return to Denmark by a steamer
sailing next Thursday.
Relatives of Larson's wife have.'
they declare., secured the promises of
all but one of his victims not to
press the charges. This one, ac
cording to statements made by Lar
son's relatives, is Miss Josephine
Flanagan, of Metuehen. who has
thus fur, they say, declined to with
draw the complaint. Friends of the
Metuehen woman In this city were
appealed to yesterday to use their !
influence with her in trying to per
suade her to yield to the request.
Larson's ajleged offenses were seri
ous. however, and Miss Flanagan's
friends in Metuehen consider her
stand well taken.
There Is another side to the
story, however. Larson's wife, who
was a seamstress prior to her mar
riage, Is a young woman of sterling
honesty and character, and there is
much sympathy for her. She bas
two small children, and it a cousin
of her husband.
It is understood that Larson's
case is to come up again at Eliza

pressed, his relatives hope to secure
his release upon a promise to return
to Denmark on a steamer sailing the

Larson had been idle for some
time and his wife thought he was
looking for employment while he
was away from home. On the night
when he committed the Railway
hold-up which resulted in his ar
rest, his wife sat np all jyght long,
worrying for iis safety'. When nn
officer, authorised to search the
bouse, came there the next morning,
Mrs. Larson feared he was an under
taker coming to tell her that her
husband had been injured or killed.
When told of the purpose of the of
ficer's visit, she was nrostrated. but
agreed to let him search the rooms
for booty. He knew of her good
reputation, however, and took her
word, it is declared, for the fact
that she had no loot concealed.
