BUILDING ORDINANCES WERE
NOT STRICTLY ENFORCED

Although the Iroquois theater was
undoubtedly the safest theater in Chi
cago it became evident Thursday that
the city building department had not
strictly enforced one or two sections
OF the building ordinances.
Section lS5 Of the local building
ordinance provides that in buildings
of the class to which the lroquois
theater belong. there shall be n sys-
TEN Of automatic sprinklers. There
were no sprinklers in the theater and
Deputy Building Commissioner Stan
hope. when this was called to his at.
tention. replied:
"There was no sprinkler system in
the theater but the provision about
the iron doors made 1t unnecessary
for the theater to have them
Section 1aS of the ordinance pro-
vides that theaters be equipped with
fire alarms connected with the city
fire alarm system. Mr.. Stanhope
said:
THE Tro1uois had fire alarm con-
nections. | did not see the box. but
that is my information.
City Electrician Hyland said: THE
Iroquos had no fire alarm connection
with the city alarm system. No appll-
cation is on file for any such connec-
ton
The alarm of fire, in fact, was
turned in from box over half a
block distant from the theater.
The law provides. also, that there
shall be a ventilating shaft at the rear
of the stage which will conduct flames
and smoke away from the auditorium
in Just such emergencies as arose
Wednesday. The Iroquois theater
possessed no such ventilating shaft.

Five Hundred and Eighty-two Victims
Of the Chicago Disaster by
Actual Count.
Four Hundred and Fifty Bodies Turned
Over to Relatives for
Burial.

Chicago, Jan. 2.-P1tIless investlga-
tion of the Iroquois fire horror divides
attention with the burial OF the dead
The removal of the bodies from the
public morgues to private undertaking
establishments developed fresh un.
certainty in computing totals OF dead
and missing The count Of actual
corpses most generally agreed upon
was 582, including $50 identified and
132 unidentified. Lists Of missing vary
greatly, one authority putting the to-
tai at 312. Injured are figured at 104.
Coroner Traeger has issued an ap-
peal to the public to notify him Of all
fire deaths that have escaped the rec
ords.
1T has come to my notice." said
Coroner Traeger, "that bodies Of some
persons were removed from the TEN
porary hospitals and relief stations
opened by merchants in the vicinity Of
the theater directly after the fire with
out any records having been made by
the police.
In the hurry and confusion per-
sons who could identify remains were
without question. understand that
this occurred in few instances. l
have also learned that some Of the
injured were taken to private resi-
dences and hospitals without the max
ing of any record and it is reported
10 me that some have since died.

SIZE OF EXITS TO FIRE
ESCAPES CAUSES COMMENT.

The iron doors were closed and
locked and it was then seen that the
inner doors were so close to the steel
shutters that they could not be open
cd with the shutters fastened. TIT
exit Is not sufficiently high for aa 3t.
dinary sized man to walk thFouG..
without STOPPING. and when the Jurors
learned this fact by personal expe-
rience there was considerable COM
ment among them. The jury then as
cended to the top gallery where the
greatest loss of life occurred.
Coroner Traeger pointed to the bal
cony rail. which was bent in several
places, and said that a number OF
spectators had jumped through these
openings to the lower floor. An In
spection was then made of the exits
leading to the fire escapes and the
Jurors were told that the bodies of
the dead were piled ten feet high In
front of these doors when the police
reacned the scene after the fire.
"If those doors were locked some-
body was criminally negligent said
Juror Finn.
"rhe exits are too small, anyway"
said Foreman Meyer, as he measured
the doors leading to the fire escapes.

CONFIDENT OF VICTORY.
Russian Editors Have No Fear Of the
Outcome.

Moscow, Jan. 2.-The governments
order to publish nothing in relation to
the movement Of troops Is patriotically
observed by every Moscow paper. One
editor said to the Associated Press
correspondents:
"I know exactly which division is
going to the Far East and know the
names Of officers who have been or
dered not to stir out Of Moscow in
view Of the possible receipt of sudden
marching orders.
Another editor, impatient for wal
and confident Of victory, said:
"The Russian army will prove as
disastrous to the Japanese as did Mont
Pelee to Martinique"
When asked to explain the utter in
difference Of the Muscovites he ex.
plained:
"That is due to loyalty Wait till
the emperor issues a manifesto declar.
ing war Then Russian sentiment will
burst forth. But a manifesto is i'm.
probable in the immediate future, even
If the Japanese occupy Korea"
Both editors expressed concern at
the possibility of American interven.
tion One OF them remarked:
The attitude of the United States
has become equivocal We do not like
the dispatch of American warships.
Still the Russians cannot believe that
their old friends will give active as.
sistance to japan"

LITTLE POSSIBILITY OF AyERTING WAR
FEELING IN DIPLOMATIC CIRCLES
THAT HosTILlTIEs ARE
NOW CERTAIN.

London. Jan. 2.-Baron Hayashi,
the Japanese minister here, has been
Informed from Paris that Russia has
decided not to grant the Japanese pro-
posals.
This is the first intimation any one
here admits having received anent the
Russian reply.
The baron said to a representative
OF the Associated Press:
eff information from Paris is borne
out by the wording of the Russian re-
ply and if the Japanese government
adheres to Its present determination
there seems to be small possibility of
averting war;
"My information from Paris" said
the minister Of Japan, "is not official,
hut in connection with information
impaired to me by the British govern
ment it is probably only too correct"
Report Is Not Confirmed.
The British foreign office is unable
to confirm or deny Baron Hayashi's S
information. The officials, however,
say they are not surprised at the tenor
OF his advices.
The foreign office seems inclined to
think that Russia will, if possible,
avoid making a reply of any kind to
the last Japanese note.
Foreign Secretary Lansdowne has
Informed one Of the foreign ambassa-
doris that he has practically given up
all hopes of peace.
At the embassies here the statement
made by Baron Hayashi, the Japanese
minister, that he had been informed
from Paris that Russia had decided
not to grant the Japanese proposals is
regarded as being most grave, espe-

SUBSCRIPTION LISTS OPENED.
Fund Being Raised for Pressing Wort

Chicago, Jan. 2.-Public Fealization
Of the horrors Of the Iroquois disaster
has led to the opening of a number of
subscription lists to raise funds for
the pressing work of relief. Sir Thomas
Upton cabled from London that he
stood ready to contribute $1,000.
President Granger Farwell Of the
Stock Exchange has appointed com
mittee OF five to receive subscriptions
and a long list Of brokerage houses
Immediately pledged themselves to
contribute.
President Farwell said that 1t would
be wise to get funds pledged even if
no use should be found for the money.
He expressed the belief, however, that
much could be accomplished. by cash
assistance.
