shire to the roof.
u'Here he endeavored to make his
way to one'of the fire escapes, but
was again driven back by smoke and
name. Chilled by the extreme cold
and by his long exposure to the air,
thinly clad, he grasped the coping of
the roof and leaned over.
Many thought he was about to
jump and yelled at him not to. It
will then that the: rescue parties
started for him. Higgins went back
from the edge of the roof and crawl-
ed across to the Music Hall block.
Here he endeavored to crawl up a
llldder several feet to a window. but
was barely able to move. being over-
come by smoke. fright and cold.
, He was found here by ex-Fire Chief
Killer-t E. Winchester. and was drag-
ged back towards the clock tower.
William Farrell came through the
Music Hall block and also aided Mr.
Winchester.
’ Fred Arlington. who, with Joseph
N. Moeller, had started on s. spectac-
ular climb by moans of scaling lad-
ders at the rear of the building tow-
ards theroof. Arlington reached the
roof but could find no trace of Hig-
gins and it was believed that Higgins
had fallen from the roof. or into the
names which were just breaking
through in several spots.
James Rutledge. proprietor of the
hotel, ran up to notify Arlington
and Mueller that Higgins had been
rescued. The two men received a.
rousing cheer for their brave effort.
As Chief ‘Vincllestcr and Farrell,
dragging Higgins with them. came
down from the tower, they were met
by still another party. that had
started for the roof. In this party
was Patrolman Robert Gainer and
guests of the hotel.
The three mclf were taken to the
lower floors of the hotel by George
Russell. Daniel Warren and Gregory
Riordan, who were fighting the fire
on the fourth floor. It is estimated
that Higgins was on the roof about
half an hour.
Warren was overcome by smoke
while making his way to the street.
and was taken to the Elks‘ Home to
recuperate. He did so and returned
lo his duty.
Farrell Taken to Hospital
Later this morning. aboutlszo‘
o’clock, Farrell, who had gone to the
second floor to observe conditions
there. was overcome by smoke and
had to be dragged to the street,.his
rescuer being Lester Husted. Far-
rellrxwas removed to ‘the Norwslk
Hospital. where it is said that he is
in no danger. .. -

bravery on the part of individuals.
who Were connected with the depart-
ment. or who were civilian specta-
tors and who wished to do what they
could to aid in checking the blaze.

fire about 5 o‘clock this morning that
