6 of the Kingston Avenue Hospital, where diphtheria cases are housed, were somewhat alarmed last night when fire broke out in the garage and workshop near the pavilion, between Albany ave. and Winthrop not far from the buildings of the Kings County Hospital. A "still" alarm was sent into the Empire blvd. police station and within a short time a call had been sent in to the Fire Department. Lt.

Joseph Smythe hurried the police emergency squad and the reserves to the scene. and they with the attendants, doctors and nurses, allayed the fears of those in the pavilion, while the firemen confined the blaze to the building where it started. Dorman and Kerrigan on Scene. When the fire broke out Fire Commissioner Dorman and Assistant Mayor Kerrigan were at the Kings County Hospital conferring with officials regarding the action of the Board of Estimate yesterday afternoon in superintending the removal of the 260 women patients from the women's chronic ward, which has been ordered vacated. The flames lighted up several of the buildings and agitated some of the patients in these structures but at no time, the police say, did the flames threaten to reach any of these buildings.

The loss was said to have been small. The oigin of the fire has not been determined. $10,000 Blaze on Upper Fulton Street. Fire of undetermined origin early today damaged a three-story brick apartment and store building at 1593 Fulton a corner structure which also has an entrance at 499' Sumner ave. The total damage was estimated at $10,000.

Traffic on the Fulton st. and Sumner ave. surface car lines was delayed about half an hour. The fire apparently started in the cellar of 1593 Fulton where most of the damage was done, and spread to the ground floor of 499 Sumner occupied by the tailor shop of J. A.

Hunt and the candy store of J. A. Schoelermann. Sgt. Robert Smith and Patrolman Chester McCarthy discovered the fire and awoke the tenants of the apartments, all of whom escaped.

Washington, April 10 (P)-The possibility of the ventilation of the House and Senate chambers having a direct effect upon the mortality among members of Congress was discussed at length in hearings on the annual legislative supply bill reported to the House today by its Approphiations Committee. While no specific reference was made to the recent deaths of four members, Senator Willis of Ohio, Jones of New Mexico, Ferris of Michigan and Representative Gallivan of Massachusetts, the committee devoted considerable time to the question of the purity of the air in the chambers Representative Taylor, a Democrat.

submitted a table of sta- tistics compiled 'by William Tyler Page, clerk of the House, which, he said, showed that "during the past 35 years 202 Representatives and 33 Senators have died In office." "The average death rate of Senators has been 46 percent and of resentatives 28 percent for each Congress," Taylor said, adding that there seemed to be "quite a wide divergence of opinion on this matter among members as to why the death rate here is much higher than in ordinary walks of life."

LINER BUCKED GALE FOR FOUR DAYS Gripsholm Makes Port 24 Hours Passengers. As a result of a blinding westerly gale that blew for four days continuously, the Swedish-American liner Gripsholm arrived today from Gothenburg 24 hours late. Coming into Halifax, according to the ship's officers, the pier was not sighted until the liner was within 40 yards of it.

Last Thursday the gales were SO strong that the liner was obliged to leave her course and run several miles to get away from the high seas. Prof. Lars Romell, Swedish scientist, here to occupy the recently created forest and soils chair at Cornell University, was among the 1,293 passengers. Also on the liner was Alice Norman, 24, of Mockfjald, Sweden. She was dressed in native costume.

Foresee Possible Delay In Far Rockaway H. S. Delay in constructing the new 000,000 Far Rockaway High School was seen as a possibility in a report from Acting Superintendent of School Buildings Clarence E. Dobbins. at the meeting of the Board of Education last night.

According to the report the tratcor, Psaty Fuhrman, have protested the cost of extra construction, amounting to $9,935, for applying "mastic" for waterproofing walls with exterior exposure, and for replacing "nailing concrete" with the old type of wooden sleepers for underfloorings. It appears that the contractor previously agreed to apply "mastic" and that later the specifications were changed to eliminate the nailing concrete, to conform with recommendations of survey committees for correcting faulty plans, which resulted in leaky and otherwise defective school buildings. Although the protest was' accepted into the minutes no action was taken by the Board to recompense the contractors for the additional expense. WIDOW SAVED FROM DEATH. Mrs.

Crist Describes FiveMonth Campaign Before Medical Jurisprudence Society. "Ambulance Chasing" was the subject discussed last night before the Society of Medical Jurisprudence at the Academy of Medicine, Manhattan. Harris M.

Crist was the chief speaker. Thomas Rice, member of the State Crime Commission, also spoke, and later there were discussions from the floor in which a number of lawyers and doctors participated. Mr. Crist outlined the five months' campaign of The Eagle which preceded the ordering of the present inquiries into ambulance chasing by the Appellate Divisions of the Manhattan and Brooklyn departments. The Eagle's expose started with the revelations of Abraham Gatner, for 18 years a runner for the most successful and unscrupulous chasers of Manhattan.

Publicity Forced Action. The speaker told of the immediate and remarkable support given to movement by the lay public and the indifference with which it was regarded by the bench and bar until publicity brought action. Following the continued publication of details of the fraud, corruption and bribery practiced by the chasers the public clamor for reform became 50 strong that the bar finally took action. Mr. Crist spoke highly of the thoroughness, skill and accuracy of Joseph Lilly, reporter and investigator, who wrote most of the articles for The Eagle in which conditions were exposed.

Personnel of Boro Bar Praised. Mr. Crist praised the personnel of the Brooklyn bar, commending it for its determination to purge the profession of ambulance chasers, whom he believes form a very small proportion of the active practitioners. He asserted that the inquiry in Brooklyn, now being conducted by Justice Faber and Meier Steinbrink, was in competent hands and that the public could look to them for a thorough, and vigorous treatment of the entire subject. Rice Urges Doctors' Co-operation.

Mr. Rice spoke the inherent power which the bar has to purge itself, giving legal citations and incidents to prove his contention. He suggested that the medical profession well turn its attention fo so-called experts who give court evidence for fat fees, asserting that there was ground for the belief that fraud frequently creeps into such evidence. He said that as experts of all kinds were being brought into fraudulent or grossly exaggerated suits for personal injuries to support claims advanced by ambulance chasers, all of the professions were being constantly lowered in the public estimation.
