Multialarm

Fires which have heretofore been one‐alarm skirmishes are now multialarm small wars.

Two multialarm fires burned out of control for several hours in New York City last night, one racing through seven frame dwellings and leaving more than 100 people homeless in the Morrisania section of the Bronx and another, reportedly set by arsinists^([sic]), destroying a series of stores and residences in the Bushwick section of Brooklyn.
