12 THE BROOKLYN TIMES. TUESDAY, JANUARY 8. 1907. FIREMAN SEUFERT IS NOW OUT OF ALL DANGER LITTLE FEAR OF PNEUMONIA FOR MAN BURIED UNDER. RUINS THIRTY-ONE HOURS.

HIS WIFE BADLY PROSTRATED She Had Made All Preparations for 1-Men Are Still Working 011 Ruins, Hoping to Find Campbell--Rescued Fireman Tells of Wonderful Experience. At noon to-day it was reported from the House Relief, 67 Hudson street, Manhatthat John J. C. Soufort, the fireman fun, who epent thirty-one hours under the wreck ago at 54 Roosevelt street, was doing very well, and unless unexpected complications set in had little to tear from pneumonia. During the hours of entombment Soufert was chilled to the bone by the constant stream of water that trickled down on him between the dense wads of wet paper, and when he WILB rescued and rushed to the hospital great fears were felt by the doctors that pneumonia might develop.

However. he has now been out from under the deas bris almost a and his naturally strong system is exericising Itself, there is said day, to be no great fear. If his condition continues to improve 08 rapidl yas it has 80 far by to-morrow he may be able to leave the hospital a well man. All that he will have to show for his miraculous experience and escape will be slight abrasion of the left knee and a slight bruise in the back. Seufert lives at 297 President street, this borough.

Mrs. Seufert Prostrated. There is but one cause for Seufert to worry this morning, though happily it has not been communicated to him. It 19 the condition of his wife. She had yesterday laid out the black clothes for the burial of her dead husband, and when news came that still lived and that the President street home might not be a house of mournthe ing, she fainted.

Since that first attack she has rallied slowly, but is still completely prostrated. She has dented herself to every one. One man she has seen. A fireman that her husband knows well, and when this man told her that Jack undoubtedly lived, she said: "Thank God for that!" Almost directly afterwards she fainted and has not been seen by the outside world since. There is a chain on the front door, and no one is allowed to enter.

Seufert Tells of Hours in Trap. Before being taken to the hospital, Seufert told of his escape and the conditions in his cage of paper in the followin gwords: "While I was working on the third floor, of the bullding, I heard three crashes like thunder. Then came what seemed like a streak of lightning, and two Immense paper bales came tumbling down. They caught me between them, and though we fell the three stories together the bales did not press me uncomfortably. "When I struck the bottom I began to yell.

When I was 80 hoarse that I couldn't speak, I began pounding on the scantling. It seemed like a year before I got any reply. I could hear voices a long time before I got any answer to my rappings. "At one time I thought that I would be burned to death by a pile of blazing paper that fell beside me. I waited anxiously.

As the pile burned higher, became alarmed and was sure my end was near. After a long walt-1 seemed days--the pile burned itself out, and I began feel that there was still some hope of my being rescued alive." Campbell Not Yet Found. Roosevelt street this morning Is choked with debris that the eager workers have thrown out from the building in their haste, for since Selfert's recovery they seem to think there is some possibility that Campbell may also have escaped. There is not much probability of this, but the men are working for a pal, and they are sparing no labor to either rescue or bring to the surface the body of the man that is somewhere in the wreckage. There is yet an impenetrable mass of damp paper, heavy and adhesive, many feet thick in every part.

"Hooray, Hooray, They Are Alive." Weary gangs of firemen were working on the debris of the paper warehouse at 54 Roosevelt street, Manhattan, at 6:40 last night. Thomas Lannon, one of the dead men, had been recovered at ten in the morning. They were digging for Seufert and "Dan" Campbell. The street was packed with a dense crowd of people, tense and expectant, waiting for the bodies of the brave firemen to be recovered. 4 Suddenly a fireman rushed from the building into the street, waving his arms and crying hysterically: "Hooray! Hooray! They are alive!" In 'a minute the words ran from end to end of the Voices caught street." the shout and a roar of enthusiasm at the news went up from the thousands of people packed round the ill fated building.

Chief Binns, Chief Croker, and other fire fighters, who had started to leave the scene, rushed back into the building. Sixty men sprang into the building, but they crowded each other out and the force had to be lessened. In that mad moment the men tore at the soggy packing like fends. Walker First Hears Tap of Entombed Man. The entombed men had long been given up for dead last night when Fred Walker, of the emergency force of the Building Department, who was handling baskets at the far end of the line of sappers, straightened up and said: "Hush! What was that?" The men stood stock still, staring with strained, tense eyes into the white faces.

All was silent. Then, faint and far away, there came a "tick!" "Tick!" hardly louder than the scratch of a mouse. They stared at one another without moving. Then faint, and almost inaudible, but still distinct and clear, came the faint sound, like a far-off telegraph instrument, though beating From far below came the faint call of a man's voice. "Hello! Hello!" it said.

Then pandemonium broke loose. Men knelt on the floor and almost 'ourst their lungs in shouting to the man imprisoned far below them the water-logged debris. Again and again they hollowed their hands and cried down into the sticky mass of paper and the twisted irons and wreck of floors. Each time they heard it again, faint and far off, but unmistakably, the cry of a living man. Systematic Rescue Work Begins.

Chief Croker took charge of the work of rescue, and in the hours that followed the first sound of the entombed man the firemen made the waste material fly in their eagerness to get to their comrade. It was early found out by calling down that the man below them was Seufert, "Jack" Seufert, whose wife had thought she was a widow. The sappers got to work In earnest. They worked with speed and precision, each one eager to be in at the finish when the living comrade should be recoyer- War Skirt Sale $15 Voile Skirts Taffeta Silk Drops $7.75 Wednesday's War Special Dressy Spring Models Charming Spring styles from the leading Paris designers--their first peep outside the workrooms for this great value-giving "'War These shirte have a present vogue for dressy wear amounting to A fad.

The debrie swung out in great, basketfuls, but still there were tons over the buried man. At 9:15 o'clock a physician from the Hudson Street Hospital tried to reach the man by a stick, He could not, but the man was within five feet of the diggers, and described his condition thus: "My legs are fast.

I can't move. I can't turn my head, because my helmet de on 60 tight. But I am all right. There is a lot of paper around me, but something keeps it off of me. How is my wife?" No Hope That Campbell Is Allve.

"Where is Campbell?" he was asked. "I haven't heard him," was the answer. A few minutes later Chief Binns, covered with grime, told the crowd that only one man was alive in the ruing. With the man's voice clear, the rescuers worked feverishly. The debris flew and within a few hours therre hole cut directly above the buried fireman's head.

"What do you want?" they asked. "Give me a ball," he responded. There was a shout of laughter when this of whiskey were given him through a rubrequest was known, and tWo, huge glasses ber tube. Later he had hot beef tea. Father W.

S. Smith, chaplain of the Fire Department, performed the rite of absolution on the man as he sat cramped and imprisoned in the debris. After that the man down under the ruins talked and laughed with the rescuers workbut a few feet above him. He said that he felt well and quite comfortable except that he was wet through and something pressing slightly on his stomach. He wAS taken out at 1:20.

this morning, and after being almost suffocated in the embraces of the men near the hole was put into an ambulance and taken to the Hudson Street Hospital. PILLOWS NO PROTECTION. Some One Got Greenberg's Cash and Diamond Studs from Under Them. Goldman Greenberg, who with his family occupies the first floor of 210 East New York avenue, reported at the Brownsville Station a peculiar robbery that occurred some time last night at his home. Greenberg, when he retires at night, places his loose change and his diamond shirt-studs under his pillow.

He did this last night, when he went to bed at ten o'clock. This morning, at seven o'clock, when he awoke, he discovered that sixtyfive dollars in cash and the shirt-studs had disappeared. CHAPMAN CO. CLOSE. Surprise at the Announcement the Stock Is to Be Transferred to Manhattan.

The big department store of Chapman on Fulton street, between Bridge and Duffeld streets, is closed. The closing was sudden and unexpected, and, has caused much surprise and comment. Thousands of people stopped in front of the big store to-day and read the printed announcement posted in the show windows. The announcement was In effect that because of the expiration of the lease on a portion of their premises on January 23, and of the remainder in April next, and In view of an opportunity to acquire a building now in process of erection In Manhattan, the firm had sold its entire stock of merchandise to the O'Neill-Adams of Sixth avenue, Manhattan. It is further announced that the O'NeillAdams Co.

will sell the stock at low prices as soon as it is transferred to their Manhattan store and that while Chapman Co. are temporarily out of business, they invite their customers to transfer their patronage and accounts' to the O'Neill Adams Co. Nothing could be learned with reference to the closing of the Chapman store by a Times reporter to-day beyond the information thus given. A representative of the firm who was seen by the reporter said that the notice which is embodied in an advertisement which appears to-day in the Times just what it said and contained all the information the firm desired to make public at this time. Beyond this the firm had nothing to say.

As Chapman Co. are to leave their present quarters and the stock is to 1 be taken over to Manhattan, however, the premises will soon be entirely vacant. TRIP TO WATER SHEDS.

Comptroller Metz showed a thorough knowledge of well driving. He has many I establishments all turning out chemical products and for some of them he needs the purest of water.

The relation between the structure and physical properties of many industrial alloys was next taken up and illustrated by bronzes, bearing metals, and the like. Then iron and steel were discussed the series illustrated from wrought iron, through structural steel, rail steel, tool steel, to cost Iron, white and gray.

Finally, the application of metallography to the determination of the order of origin of. was Illustrated by examples from Cobalt, Ontario; Butte, Arizona, and other localities. OBITUARY.
