NEW YORK (! Wind-fanned
flames swept through four frame j
rooming houses near New York's t
Coney Island amusement park ;
early Wednesday and eight tier-j
sons perished.
Fifteen others, several rescued,
in dramatic action by fircm?n,
were injured. j
Nitres vi the rierd could not he ,
established immediately. Bodies
were burned so badly that the sex
of only two a man and a woman
was established.
Among the injured were men
and women ranging from 33 to 80.
The blaze broke out only two
hours alter another fire in a bath
house on the Coney Island board-
walk seven blocks away. The co
incidence aroused suspicions of au
thorities. The second fire occurred about
ft a.m. in a mir'dleclass residen
tial and rooming houcc area heav
ily populated by Italians. It was
brought under control two hours
later.
Winds which buffeted the Vew
York area after passage of Hur
ricane lone offshore made the firc
fighting more difficult.
Fire Battalion Chief Charles
Burns gave this description ot the
scene when firemen arrived:
"People trapped as they slept
stood at their windows in a ter
rible slate of shock.
"Even when we got ladders up
fn (he windows they seemed pa
ralyzed. "We had a great deal of diffi
culty persuading them to leave the
burning buildings. Most of them
were elderly."
A priest from a nearby Roman
Catholic Church donned a fire
man's hat and coat to enter one
of the burning structures. After
ward be said:
"I administered last rites to one
adult and one child on the first
floor, and another adult on the
second floor.
'They could hardly be distin
guished as human beings."
