CHURCHES AND HALLS.
Many Of Them Are Closed In Chicago
Because They Lack Proper Fire Pro-
faetInn

Chicago, Jan. 15.-From an action
taken last night by the city council
it is evident that the theatres in this
city will not be able to reopen their
doors for some time. The meeting of
the council was for the purpose of
considering the revision of the build
ing ordinances and it was generally
expected that the proposed amend
ments would be considered and adopt
ed, that the proprietors of the thea
tres would know what would be de-
manded of them and would be able to
commence their alterations at once.
When the measure was called up
last night Alderman Mayor moved
that consideration be deferred, that
all the proposed amendments be pub
lished, and that the whole subject be
taken up when the council was ready.
The motion was passed, and all
consideration of the new ordinance
was postponed until the council Is
ready"
Fifteen churches were closed yes
terday for violations of the building
ordinances and Building Commits
sioner Williams placed them all under
police guard until alterations are
made.
Chicago, Jan. 16.-The coroner's
inquest over the victims of the lro-
quois theatre fire was yesterday
given over to witnesses from the fire
department. Chief Musham and sew
eral of his highest ranking assistants
were the witnesses.
Chief Musham declared that in his
opinion it was the duty of the build
ing commissioner to report to him ii
the fire protection in the theatre was
inadequate. No report had ever been
made to him and he had taken no ac-
ton in the matter. 1t had never been
the custom of the fire department
to inspect theatres or public build
ings for fire protection unless a re-
port had been made from the Office of
the building commissioner. Building
Commissioner Williams previously
had testified that it was not the busi-
ness of his Office to report on fire pro-
lection, but that it was a matter en-
tirely belonging to the fire depart
ment.
Orders were issued Friday by Com
missioner Williams to close six more
churches for failure to comply with
the building ordinance.
Seventeen halls were also closed by
order of Commissioner Williams.
Noncompliance with city ordinances
was the reason assigned. 81 want it
understood" said Williams, ''that the
building ordinance is to be enforced
to the last letter so far as this de-
partment is able with its small force
to do so. | believe that it will prac
tically close up all Chicago to enforce
the law, but nevertheless we are go
ing to do it,"

INDUSTRIAL PLANS.
A Massachusetts Committee Makes n
Report on Profit Sharing, HoycOtts
and IujuncIIons.

Boston, Jan. 16-PronOunced op-
position to plans for industrial profit
sharing under compulsion is expressed
in the report of the Massachusetts
committee on relations between EN-
ployer and emplose. This commit
tee. the members Of which are Car
roll ID. Wright, Henry Sterling, Royal
Robbins, William n. OsgoOd ana
Davis II. Dewey, was appointed last
June by the governor of Massachu-
setts, at the direction of the legisla-
ture to consider legislation concern
ing the legal relations of employer
and employe.
The committee pronounce "com-
pulsory arbitration" contradiction
in terms and does not believe that a
measure looking to a binding arbi-
tration of industrial disputes by pub
lie authorities, regardless of the
wishes of both parties to an entirely
private controversy, is in full accord
with sound public policy. The com
mittee urges the enactment of laws
regulating the assignment of wages
and determining employers liability
for injuries or death to Workmen.
'We believe" says the committee,
"that the use of the boycott as Il
weapon in trade, labor and other dis
putes has been carried to extremes
which cannot be justified, and that III
many cases its use is futile"
In conclusion the committee takes
up the subject OF iniunctions. 1t op-
poses the blanket injunction.

STOLE A LARGE SUN
Sensational Statement by Liant
Salisbury at Grand Rapids.
To Shield HIS Partners in Crime He
Agreed to Assume the Burden and
go TO Prison - Admits that
His Statement 10 Judge
Wanty was Not True.

Grand Rapids. Mich, Jan. 16.-When
Jacob Ellen was resumed Friday in
superior coart the cross-eXamind-
of ex-City Attorney Liant X. Salisbury
was continued. Attorney Walker de-
voted himself to attacking the re-
liability of Salsbury's memory. SAILS
bury repeatedly failed to recall the
details of meetings and conversa-
tiOnS.
The statement made by Salisbury in
the federal court to Judge VANITY
where he was convicted of violating
the federal banking law, was read by
Attorney Walker. Did you lie 10
Judge Wanty?" he asked Salisbury.
Salisbury said: 'Ges, l did lie to
Judge VANITY We had meeting Of
several of US interested in the water
deal and it was evident that some of
US had to go TO prison. ! agreed to
accept the burden in order to protect
the others. The statement was not
true and | knew it."
Salisbury was asked about discrep-
ancies in his testimony relative to
the money paid to aldermen and
others. In his police court testimony
he said he paid Corey 2. Bissell $500,
but on Thursday he testified to hav-
ing given him $40O. Salisbury said he
would stick to the latter amount as
shown in his memorandum.
Taking up the Barton deal in Chi
cago, Attorney Walker asked witness
if he did not steal the $4,000 Barton
money from the safety deposit box in
Chicago.
NO, sir, do not consider ! did"
he replied. Il brought the money
over here and divided it among
others and |, ,er took ii back"
