Six Firemen Reported Killed and the m.

Terrible Calamity Might Have Occurred.

 

. NEW YORK, Jan. 3.—Fire which, it is be-.
lieved, resulted in the loss of the lives of
at least half a dozen brave firemen, broke
Out in the Fifth Avenue theatre shortly af-
ter midnight this morning. Within an‘
hour that famous playhouse was practi-
cally destroyed, Hermann’s‘ theatre was in
flames and the entire block in grave peril. ’
The flames broke out under the stage of the
Fifth Avenue theatre. \Vatchman “Dan"
discovered the smoke, and notified Police-
mon Adams, who rang in an alarm, and
this Was followed by a second and third,
turned in by the firemen who responded to
the first alarm.

At first the fire did not seem to be serious,
and the firemen played on ‘it with streams
of water, expecting that the flames would
be at once drowned out. At 12:30 O’clock
an explosion was heard in the building,
and a moment later the upper part of the
city was illuminated by a huge sheet of '

theatre, enveloping the entire building
and Herrmann’s theatre immediately ad—
joining.

Six Firemen Reported Lost.

It is said that six firemen had gone
through 'Hermann’s theatre to the roof
and had just succeeded in hoisting a
length of hose up when the furnace opened
directly at their feet. Five Of them could
not be seen from the street, but one stood
outlined against the sea of flame that rose
from the burning buildings. A shout was
made for scaling ladders by the firemen on
Broadway, but before they could be pro-

well look at the crowd below and then to
deliberately walk into the flames and dis-
appear. A deadly silence that lasted for a
full minute resulted, and then a moan of
agony arose from the crowd. Firemen
Were seen to bend their heads and wipe
away the tears that they could not prevent
from flowing. ,
The Entire Block on Fire.

At this time the whole block, from
Twenty-eighth street to Twenty-ninth
street, was in flames, while on the Twenty-
eighth street side of the Fifth Avenue
. ..eatre the flames burst from the windows
. -.d ‘ doors and threatened the Everard
baths and other buildings on the opposite
.v..de of the street. Guests of the Brewer
house were early turned into the street.
The Sturtevant house, opposite the Broad-
way entrance to the burning theatre, did
likewise, and was in serious danger.

When the news spread that several fire. ,
men had fallen into the flames it struck _
the crowd with horror. No one knew ex- I
actly how many firemen were on the roof
when the flames burst out, but it was said
that there were fully six if not unore.

A Scene of Magnificence.

During the performance in the theatre
last night a sharp odor of smoke was
noticeable, and before Mr. Harry C. Miner
left the theatre he went all over it and
made a personal investigation of the thea-
tre, but without discovering anything.
Many explosions which could not be ac-
counted for were heard just prior to the
falling in of the roof. N 0 one knows what
caused them, but it is supposed they were i
due to the ignition of fireworks and gas.

At 1 o’clock the scene was one of mag- ‘
nificence, the entire block on Broadway 1
and 150 feet on both Twenty-eighth and ‘
Twenty-ninth streets was like a seething l
furnace. A high wind blew and carried ‘
cinders and huge blocks of burning wood
on the roofs of the neighboring buildings.
There the residents poured pails of water
on the burning refuse and protected their
homes.

The Loss of the Firemen.

The firemen were in a state of agitation
over the report. that many of their num-
her bad perished in the flames. One fire-
man who saw the roof as it caved in de-
scribed the scene with horrible realism.
The man stood on the edge of the roof
pulling at the house, he said, the rest of
the boys being further back, when the
whole roof seemed to burst out and rise .
and then settle back with a crash. i

“Poor fellow,” he continued, “he looked '
at us and then walked right into the fire.”
The others must have gone down with the 3
roof, but he might have held on until help '
arrived. He would have had the scaling
ladders up in a moment had be but waited, 5
but he lost his head.

Cleopatra Davenport Homeless.

Fanny Davenport was playing “Cleo-
patra” in the Fifth Avenue theatre. Harry
Miner was at the scene of the fire at mid- ‘
night. He estimates his own loss at $100,-
000 and Fanny Davenport’s at $50,000. Her
costumes, especially prepared abroad for
“Cleopatra,” wardrobes of her company
and the scenery of the play were wholly de-
stroyed. Hermann lost everything he had '
in his theatre, estimated in value at $40,000. ,
The Gilsey estate also lost $100,000 on the
Fifth Avenue theatre.

The Burned Theatres.

The Fifth Avenue theatre was the prop-
erty of the Gilsey estate, and was recently
leased to Harry Miner. The former lessee
was John Stetson, who ran it for years as
a combination house. It had more than a
metropolitan reputation, being a favorite
theatre for notable productions. Salvini,
Booth, Barrett, Mary Anderson, the Ken-
dals, Adelaide Neilson, Julia Marlowe—-
the list of names identified with the his-
tory of this theatre is long and luminous.
This season it practically opened with the
Kendals, followed by Margaret Mather as
Joan of Arc, and then Fanny Davenport
took possession with her gorgeous presen-
tation of Cleopatra.

Fanny Davenport's Superstition.

A curious confirmation of a stage super-
stition is worthy of note in this connection.
When Miss Davenport saw the scenery of
the second act she cried out in dismay at
seeing the wings on the symbol of Osiris,
the Winged Sun, on the drop and declared
she would not play under it. She was told
that it was essential to the Egyptian char-
acter of the scene and persuaded to aban-
don her superstiti . .

“Very well—I wni play,” she said, “but
bad luck will follow." ‘

Bad luck seems to have come as foretold.
First the seizure of her costumes by the
custom house, and now. their destruction,
with the theatre by fire. Few productions
in this city have been more beautiful or
artistic than this “Cleopatra.”

THE FIFTY-FIRST CONGRESS.

doused Report of Proceedings in Sen.
ate and House.
WASHINGTON. Dec. 29.—In the senate a
communication from the governor of Idaho
was presented, transmitting credentials of
the‘senators-elect from that state—Messrs.
George L. Shoup and William J. McCon-

c...

nell.-‘ The credentials were read and Mr.

Hoar moved that as Mr. Shoup was pres-
ent the oath of office be administered
to hini'. Mr. Vance remarked that the new
state of Idaho appeared to have elected
more than its fair share of senators, and he
thought‘the credentials should be referred
to the committee on privileges and elec-
tions. Mr. Hoar’s motion was agreed to
and that senator escorted Mr. Shoup to the
clerk’s desk,where he took the oath of office.

Mr. Hoar argued that it was clear and
unquestionable" that one of the two sena-
tors, whose credentials had just been pre-
sented, would go out on March 4, 1891, and
the legislature. being in session, had elect-
ed a senator for the term that would then
begin. Beyond all question there would
be a vacancy at that time. because one of
those two senators would have to go out
on that date.

Mr. Carlisle said the legislature of Idaho
had no right to assume (in advance of ac-
tion by the senate) that there would be
a vacancy in the senate from that state on
March 4, 189]. No election of a senator to
fill suchyacancy could take place until it
was legally known that that vacancy
He imagined that there
never had been a case in the history of
the country where a state legislature had
chosen three senators at once. Mr. Hoar
moved to lay on the table Mr. Vance’s
motion to refer the credentials to the com-
mittee on privileges and elections. The
vote resulted—yeas, 22; nays, 15 (no quo-
rum). Then Mr. Hoar withdrew his mo-
tion to lay on the table, and Mr. Vance's
motion to refer the credentials of Messrs.
Shoup and McConnell to the committee
on privileges and elections was agreed to.

Mr. Aldrich offered his resolution for
the amendment of the rules which he had
heretofore given notice of. and asked that
it be printed and laid over. The senate
then resumed consideration of the elections
bill, and Mr. Hiscock spoke at length in
favor of the measure. He said that on the
purity of elections depended national
health and perpetuity alike. The gravity
of this question surpassed that of any
other question before the senate. If it
were not for the gravity of the situation
the arguments made on the other side
would excite only mirth. He asked on
what ground the Democratic party laid
claim to the virtue and patriotism which
it claimed in this controversy.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 30.—In the senate
Mr. Hoar continued his speech in favor of
the elections bill. M r. Wolcott (Rep) ad-
dressed the senate in opposition to it. The
financial bill was to {en up informally, and
Messrs. Stewart anu rteagan spoke against
it. The discussion of the elections bill
was resumed, and .hi'. Teller (Rep) spoke
against it and stainst the proposed change
in the rules. Mr. Hale and others urged

j the necessity of disposing of the bill im-

mediately. Mr. Hoar reminded southern
senators that they had pledged their Ofii-
cial oaths and honor as men that they
would give their devotion to the constitu-
tional amendments if they were only let
bacl. in the Union, free from the conse-

, quences of rebellion. And now they were

denouncing these constitutional amend-
ments as “a stupendous crime and blun-
der.” .

Mr. Hoar recalled the Copiah massacre
in Mississippi, the murder of Fred Mat-
thews and the burning of his widow’s
house, and said that within the present
Christmas season that widow’s son, the
Republican postmaster, a young man of
21, had been shot down in the streets of
Carrollton, the home of Senator George.
“How long!” Mr. Hoar exclaimed, “how
long, 0 God, shall the blood of these
martyrs cry for vengeance from the ground.
How long shall the murder of men be-
cause they are Republicans be the only
crime to which Republicans are indifier-
ent?”

Mr. Wolcott, the young Republican
senator from Colorado, followed Mr. Hoar
in an animated speech against the bill.

Mr. Teller, Colorado’s other Republican
senator, then attacked the elections bill.
In his state, he said, there had become a
fixed notion that this bill was kept before
the senate for the purpose of staving off
much needed and much demanded finan-
cial legislation. \Vhether he would vote
for this bill or not depended upon the con-
dition of the bill when it came to a vote,
and he wanted an opportunity to vote for

- amendments. He was not out of sym-

pathy with the purport of the bill. He
called attention to the fact that the pro-
posed new rule would prevent amendments
being offered to the bill, and on this
ground he opposed it. He thought the
senators could pass the bill by staying in

‘ session night and day, and called atten-
; tion to the necessity for immediate finan-
' cial legislation.

In Gen. Spinner's Honor.

JACKSONVILLE, Fla, Jan. 2.——The body
of Gen. F. E. Spinner was sent north by
