The seventy employees who worked on the tenth floor escaped the fire by way of the staircases or climbed onto the roof, where students from New York University, located across the street, stretched ladders over to the Asch Building The 260 workers on the ninth floor had the worst luck of all Although the eighthfloor workers tried to warn them by telephone, the call did not reach them, and by the time they learned about the fire, their routes of escape were mostly blocked Some managed to climb down the cables of the freight elevator Others crammed into the narrow stairway STILL OTHERS climbed onto the single, inadequately constructed fire escape But that spindly structure could not support the weight of hundreds of people, and it separated from the wall, falling to the ground and carrying many people with it To combat the disaster, the New York Fire Department sent thirty five pieces of equipment, including a hook and ladder The young women trapped on the ninth- floor window ledge watched in horror as the ladder, fully raised, stopped far below them, reaching only as far as the sixth floor Within minutes, the factory- a fire trap typical of the period’s working conditions- was consumed by flame, killing 146 workers, mostly immigrant women City officials set up a temporary morgue on 26th Street, and over the next few days streams of survivors filed through the building to identify the dead The Triangle Shirtwaist fire brought a public outcry for laws to regulate the safety of working conditions The New York Factory Investigating Commission was formed to examine the working conditions in factories throughout the state Their report introduced many new regulations The fire had occurred during an era of progressive reform that was BEGINNING TO SWEEP THE NATION, as
