New Years eve the mighty city by the
lake had ever known.


There Is probably not another theater
In Chicago that is not more dangerous
than the Iroquols was yesterday There
are plenty Of them that are much more
So The frlghtful loss OF life and the
sorrow that has come to hundreds OF
Chicago homes appear TO have been In
this case unavoidable, but that Is no
reason for abating anything OF the pre-
cautions that should be enforced In
every large hall where human beings
are assembled. Theaters are built with
halls that are only TO be reached by
dangerous stairways, chairs are per-
mitted in the alsles at churches, aud
other rules Of safety are constantly
and nagrantly violated There Is IN
fact hardly a city in the entire land IN
which the lesson Of Chicagos great dis
aster may not be studied with profit.

BIG PLANT WRECKED.
Sugar Refinery Ruined by Dust Elk.
pIosion-Three Killed-Many
Injured.

Waukegan, H., Feb. 25.-A terrific
explosion of starch dust at 6:30 O'Clock
last evening wrecked two huge struc-
lures at the plant OF the Warner
Sugar Refining company in this city,
and resulted in death and injury to
workingmen. Three bodies have been
taken from the ruins two OF which have
been identified. One man is missing
and a dozen or more are injured. The
estimated property loss is $l,O0O,OOO.
The dead are John Cusack, Jacob Spies
and an unidentified man. Jacob Lam
bert is missing
SO great was the force of the eXplo-
sion that the debris was hurled into
trees and telegraph wires half a block
on every side, and the ground between
was covered with sections and bits of
the brick walls and with the iron beams
of the roof of the buildings The con-
cussion shook the entire town, breaking
many windows. 1t demolished the Chi
cago house, a boarding house standing
a block away from the starch building.
Many of the occupants of this house were
thrown to the floor.
The building in which the explosion
occurred was the powder starch house
of the plant. Its wreck was complete.
No less great was the damage to the
dry kilns to the south, the walls of which
crumbled away, leaving the expensive
machinery and the cars of starch piled
in tangled heap within.
To add to the disaster fire broke out,
and because of the breaking of the large
private water main which supplied the
fire protection to the plant it spread al
most unchecked to the table house, still
farther south. For hours hundreds of
residents of the suburb stood in the
vicinity viewing the brilliant spectacle
which the burning ruins furnished.
