Chicago, June TO- Jf the 81 persons in
jurcd i'll the St. Lukes hospital fire yes
terday it is feared that three will die.
Those reported in critical condition to-
day, were:
I. I. Mears, Evanston.
A. w. Wattless, Chicago.
Mrs. Amelia Wilson, Chicago.
The other 81 injured persons were re-
ported better, but most OF them were still
badly shaken in their nerves by the horror
OF what they endured and witnessed yes
terday.
Deputies from the coroners Office Wis
tied the different morgues today to view
the bodies OF the eight patients, who,
either bound or manacled, could not
escape, and the two attendants who
jumped to their deaths.
The eight men arrested last night are
still held today, including o. T.. Mile,
president of the St. Lukes society
A search OF the records of the health
department today failed to discover any
record showing int the hospital had been
licensed according to law. The inquest
Will be postponed few days until a COM
plete investigation has been made. There
will be a full investigation" said Coroner
1raeger, "and it may make somebody un-
comfortable.
We will endeavor to discover il the
patients were strapped down, as reported,
and if there was sufficient number of
attendants. If any one OF the deaths was
due to negligence the guilty person or per-
sons will pay the penalty"
Perhaps the most pitiable of all the
deaths was that Of Alderman Blind Billy"
Kent. Not only was he blind, but he was
incased in straight jacket with his hands
strapped to his waist. He was politician
and had been member OF the state legis-
lature and was delegate to the republican
conventions OF 8SS and 1892. His blind
ness was due TO gunshot wound received
at the hands Of a saloonkeeper An iron
rod saved his life.
Samuel X. Markham, attorney for the
men under arrest said today that the
society had applied several times for
hospital license, but it had always been
refused because the people in the neigh
borhood Of the hospital objected to the
location Of sucn an institution near them.
He said that Mr.. Miller applied for a
license after the society moved into the
Hotel Woodruff, but had not received it.
