RESCUED BY FIREMEN
FORTY WOMEN. AND CHILDREN
TAKEN FROM BURNING NEW
YORK TENEMENT.
ALL MEANS OF ESCAPE CUT
FLAMES START I N THE BASE-
MENT AND SPREAD RAPIDLY
TO UPPER FLOORS.
New York, April 23.Nearly forty
women and children were rescued by
firemen from a burning tenement
building on Second avenue near
Eighty-ninth street. The structure
was five stories high.
The fire start ed in the basement of
the building and in an incredibly short
time had swept through the stairways
and light shaft to the roof. All the
usual means of exit from the upper
floors were thus cut off and in a few
moments the windows and fire os
capes on top of the building were
crowded with women and children.
Reassured by those on the street that
aid was at hand they await ed the com
ing of the firemen and many were
taken to the street in safety by means
of ladder s. Firemen and policemen
then began a systematic search of the
various floors and rescued a number of
persons who had been overcome by
smoke and were unable to reach the
windows. rr
