SEVEN MINERS KILLEDJN MINE ALBANY, N. Y., Feb. 17, (UP) Mrs. Edmund Teal and six children were burned to death early today when fire destroyed their home at Central Bridge, near here. Teal and the eldest daughter escaped. The fire is believed to have started start-ed from a defective chimney. The family occupied the second floor of the house, the first floor, being used as a barber shop. Neighbors were unaware of the fire until Teal, with both arms broken and clothes afire, escaped from the burning structure and aroused them. A volunteer fire squad was organized and aid summoned sum-moned from Cableskill, but owing to the condition of the roads, the firemen did not arrive until the building was consumed.
