TEN FAMILIES FLEE
FIRE IN TENEMENT
Mother Braves Blaze and Saves
Her Twins Downtown Schoor
Children Frightened
Ten Jewish families fought nnd pushed
their way down steep stairways nnd
through nairow halls in a tenement tills
morning nt 320 Queen street, when fire
was discovered on the third floor.
About S0O children In the Henry Burk
Public School, Chrlstlen above 3rd street,
became confused nt sight of the Ilamea
and smoke. They were quieted by the
teachers.
Tho tiro was caused by a defective
Btoveplpe. Soot collected and a spnrk'set
fire to the walls. A section of the roof
was destroyed. The fire started in the
room of Joseph Hosenberg.
Twins, Fanny and Dorothy, 3 years
old, were alone In the oom, while their
mother. Sarah Hosenberg. was In the
courtyard downstairs doing the washing.
When she saw the smoke pouring from
her room sho grabbed a wet sheet and
started to run up the stairs. By this time
the halls and stalls were Jammed with
the other families. Some were dragging
old women, so crippled they could scarce
ly walk, others were trying to carry
trunks and furniture as they struggled to
get out. Mrs. Itosenberg fought her way
to the third floor where she found the
twins after she had crawled on her knees
to the bed with the wet sheet about her
head.
"Mama, mama," the twins, sobbed
feebly, and this was. the only guide their
mother had as to where they were. The
mother was groping about In the hall,
nearly exhausted, when she was found
by Patrolman Nealon, of thp 2nd and
Christian streets station, who assisted her
to the Btrcet. The twins were eoon
revived. -
The tenement Is the property of Mrs.
Annla Waxier, 617 Manton street.

fly (i Staff Corrcntontlcnl
WASHINOTOM, Kcb 9 With the dec
laration, "Your statement Is unworthy nf
any man who hns ever served under tho
American ling," KoprcHtitiitlvc Thomas II.
f'rngo, of Wnyncsburg, Pa., todnmttcr1y
denounced Percy Tctlow. formerly of
Wampum, Pa., who nppeared beforo the
House Mllltnry Affnlrs Committee1 with a
delegation nf men nnd women who nrc
opposed to preparedness. Tctlow told tho
committee thnt ho nppeared for 100.000
members of the United Mine Workers of
Amerlcn. nnd declared that they unani
mously opposed nny step toward militar
ism. After Tctlow hnd been vigorously nlt
Iclsed by sovernl members of tho com
mittee, he contradicted tho Btntcmcnts
he hnd mado which drew flrn from those
who arc In favor of picparedness. Tho
controversy grew out of n roference made
by Tctlow to his servli'o In the Spnnlsh
Amcrlcnn Wnr. He said he served In tho
lGth Pennsylvania Volunteer Itcglmcnt,
nnd wns convinced that tho volunteers
rendered Just ns good service ns the
regulars,
"You had nn old Springfield rifle, didn't
ou?" asked Hepresentatlvc Crago.
"Yes," replied Tctlow.
"The enemy hnd the best modern rifles.
You were up against nn enemy better
equipped?"
"Yes."
"Would your organization be opposed to
equipping the forces of the I'nltcd Stntes
with tho best rifles nvallable?"
PLAYING TO GALLKItmS.
"I will answer that by telling you that
I wns one of thoso who wns criticising
JIcKlnlcy for holding Congress bndk. I
went to Cuba on a transport, sleeping on
a concreto Moor, because we did not even
have hammocks: wo did not havo water
for our colTeo even. Wo got to Cuba,
and I saw our men dying all around.
When wc reached tho Island I found wo
were not prepared. I would rnther go
through all that nnd suffer as I did then
than to plungo this Government into
militarism."
Tho commlttco room wns packed with
antlprcpnrcdncss devotees, nnd they ap
plauded vigorously,
"That Is only playing to tho galleries
and Isn't worthy ot n man who has served
under tho Hag of his country," said Itrp
resentatlvo Crago. "This committee, has
as much patriotism ns you or any ono
else."
"That Is true," ngrced Tetlow.
"Do you think It would bring nbout
mlltnrlim to have nrms nnd ammunitions
cqunl to thoso of the enemy?"
"Absolutely not," said Tctlow. "We
aro not opposed to this Government hav
ing the best nrms nnd ammunition and
tho mobility of .those things."
WHAT TETLOW SAID.
In beginning his statement, Tctlow
said:
"Wo nre opposed to advancing one
step toward fastening on tho pcoplo of
this country n military system that will
crush them. You cannot safcguaid
democracy by establishing a mllltnry
system other thnn that necessary to pro
tect the system for which we Contended
when we established this Government.
"Wc feel that the question of nrma
ment nnd nmmunltlon Is such that the
Government ought to control every ave
nue from which these tools and muni
tions must come. If you eliminate tho
profit desire, wo will movo nlong sane
lines.
"The reasons why the workers are op
posed to tho National Guard Is that they
nro called on to exerclso police powers
and put down strikes. In Colorado armed
gunmen were employed To crush the very
Ideals of liberty.
"Wo don't want nny preparedness at
all thnt Increases tho number ot pro
fessional soldiers. If, nny progress Is to
be mado you must reform tho National
Guard and make It more democratic."
Representative Nichols, of South Caro
lina, said:
"You aro not opposed to having -nrms
and ammunitions, but you are opposed to
nutting down strikes."
"Not at all," said Tetlow.
