Hen; lines froze up in tbr re
weather of early tnerntng, two firemen
were .overcome and a family of five,
Including three children, were- driven
into the lcc-sheathed 'streets In a flrc
which damaged the store and home of
Simen Itelhman at 1101 Nprth Fortieth
Ktreet today.
Patrelmnn MacAna'Jty, of tin Thirty
ninth street and Lancaster avenue sta
tien, saw smoke curling Inte the street
from a store en Fdrtleth street when
he passed Fortieth street nnd 0 Irani
avenue at 3:30 o'clock this morning.
He ran up and found the smeKc
was coming from the basement and first
fleer of Itetlimnn's store. He went te
the side deer, . knowing that a family
was asleep upstairs, and aroused Itoth Iteth
man by ringing-the bell and shouting.
The house was full of smoke when
MacAnally pushed his way In. JThe fire
had net passed the first fleer, how
ever, and the family fortunately had
time te dress before leaving the house.
When Mr. and Mrs. Hethraan with
their children were wifely down the
Hinek-f-tilled stairway MacAnally turned
In an alarm. Neighbors, nreused by the
patrolman s snouts, took the famllv In.
Tlie slippery streets made It difficult
for the engines te make speed te the fire.
Engine Company Ne. 10, from Belmont
and Ulrard avenues was the first en
the scene. When the firemen laid out
a hose line ther found the nearest' plug
frozen and bedded partly In snow and
ice. The firemen chopped at the ice
and thawed the tilui. men from the
chemical engine raeanvv hile attacking the
tire.
Harry Dixen and Walter Orlemcr.
hesemen of Engine Company Ne. 1(1,
carried n chemical line into the cellar.
where the fire was burning hottest.
Ilethman used the cellar te store hl
surplus stock, and the acrid fumes of
burning shoe leather made the task of
getting near the tire difficult and dan
gerous. ' '
tjremen working outside with tn
lese line s:iw ulxen nnd liriemer fall,
nnd a rescue party went In after them.
Heth men had been oerceme by the
fumes. They were rushed te the Prcs
li.Ucrian Ilmpital I" a patrol and re
vived. Heth insisted en returning t
the lire, and helped extinguish it.
The hose line were rlfficd is quickly
ih pei-iMc. The water was scarcely
turned en when "'tie of the lines froze
In the terrific cold. This further Im
peded the fiicmen, while another llpa
was Mlbstltutcd.
The water turned into Ice nlmest as
seen ns it struck the building. The
fire proved a stubborn one, btirniug
through te the first fleer and damaging
it badly. The firemen, liehtinir neainst
every handicap, yet managed te confine
tne tire te tne Dusemcnt and first fleer.
The fight went en for an hour and a
half, and when the blaze finally was
extinguished the men wcre nearly ex
hausted from the cold.
Ilethman estimated his damn te he
about $3000.
