CHICAGO HOSPITAL
WAS A Death TRAP
Ten Dead and Many Injured
by Fire
Flames Spread 50 Rapidly That Many
Had TO Jump From Windows.
Sensational Escape

Chicago, June 10. - Nine men and
one woman were killed and about 30
persons were injured several fatally,
in a fire which yesterday afternoon de-
stroyed the sanitarium conducted by
the Saint Luke's Society, at the cor
ner of Wabash avenue and Twenty
first street
BY far the greater portion of the pa
tients received in the institution were
those seeking cure from the drink
habit and those who were addicted to
the use of drugs. When the fire broke
out there was on the fifth floor a
number of patients suffering from de-
lirium tremens, and some who were ue-
ranged by drugs. Several of these
were strapped to their beds, and it was
found impossible to save them. so ra-
pidly did the fire spread through the
building.
The fire originated in the basement
of the building and spread rapidly
to the upper stories through the eleva-
tor shaft. The blaze was discovered
by James Newell, a grocer, who was
driving through the alley in the rear
of the building. Newell shouted to
several men in the alley to give the
alarm and to alarm the inmates of the
building. Several hurried to do this
but by the time they reached the first
floor of the building, the flames had
been carried to the roof, hau eater
through it and were leaping high in the
air.
Several of the patients jumped from
the windows to the pavement. Th'
fire department was on the scene il
a few minutes. and as the windows wer'
filled with people shrieking for help
the firemen devoted their first effort
to save lives and allowed the fire t
burn. While this was the means o
saving a large number of people, whit
were carried down the ladders by tn
firemen, it gave the fire such head
way that there was almost no chanc
for those on the upper floors of tn
building to make their escape, and sue
of them as were not suffocated wer
killed or badly injured by leaping fror
the windows.
A scene that wrought to the pitch c
madness the great crowd that ha
gathered around the building was el
acted at a fourth-story window on tn
north side. Across this window wa
a heavy wire screen, and on the on
side of the screen were iron bars run

was injurious but was allowed TO drink
coffee from childhood. Ever since can
remember have been subject to severe
attacks OF headache, otherwise my
health was pretty good until q short
time ago my eyes became affected; they
ached and panied me continually and
were often badly inflamed | also had
queer. dizzy feelings In my head almost
continually.
one time we were Obliged to do with
out milk or cream for few weeks, and
not relishing my coffee clear ! left OF
its use. In short time ! was surprised
to find my eyes greatly improved, and /
felt better In every way, stlll I did not
mlstrust the coffee and began its use as
soon as we got cream again. Within a
few days my eyes were worse than
ever. Then | resolved TO quit coffee alb
solutely and take up Postum. This ]
did and my eyes quickly recovered
My experience shows that while cof-
fee caused headache and eye trouble
Postum Food Coffee does not produce

may be congratulated, We cannot
natter ourselves that the prospect Is
clear even now, but at least much has
been achieved to enable us to face the
storm which the troubous elements
prove uncomfortable"
The Morning Post and The Daily
Telegraph unreseryedly approve the
treaty. The Telegraph points out
that there Is nothing In the treaty
which would preclude Japan from con-
GLIDING an absolutely Identical agree
ment with Russia, France, Germany
or the United States.
The Daily Mail, In an editorial on
the Anglo Japanese agreement, claims
authority to assert that the relations
between Great Britain and Russia
have become regrettably impaired in
consequence of Musc0vite dupilcity
with respect 10 the future OF Manchu-
ria. The Daily Mail says:
This will shortly be proved by "
decidedly clever move. Russia has
practically annexed the entire trade Of
Manchura TO the exclusion OF all other
powers and the protests of Great Brit
ain, Japan and the United States have
