HOT WAVE MOVES EAST
Twelve Deaths in Chicago Sunday At
tributed to Heat.

Chicago, July 3.-All Chicago swell
+ered Yesterday. the hottest July in
the history of the weather bureau
EVERY park in the city was jammed
with hundreds Of thousands Of people,
and every cool spot and shady lawn
was crowded with heat sufferers. When
night came the toll Of death which the
neat had exacted was twelve and there
were numerous prostrations.
Hospital and police authorities said
last night that if it had not been Sun
day the death and prostratlon list
would have been doubled.
In addition to the parks, every bath
ing beach was crowded to capacity, and
some Of those who sought relief from
tho heat met death by drowning in
stead.
While in the tower Of the federal
building the governments therm ONE
ter registered only SO at o'clock, the
hottest period of the day, instruments

cago has ever experienced" said the
weather man last night, "but it is not
the hottest day of the year, as on June
. the records show the thermometer
registered 9S.5. The official thermome-
ter registered exactly 97.S at o'clock
and from then on there was a slight
downward tendency, but for some rea-
son there wasn't great deal Of re-
lief brought"
On the West Side. in some Of the
congested districts. the suffering was
intense and last night whole families
slept on sidewalks. In many instances
children slept in their mothers arms,
while the latter slumbered on a curb
stone. The ''hokey pokey" man did a
thriving business peddling his penny
ice cream cones.

Suffering at Des Moines.

Des Moines, July 3-Apparently
peeved at prediction emanating from
DR.. Chappers office in the government
building Saturday night Of an approach
Ing cool wave the mercury came back
yesterday and not only eclipsed the
new seasons mark established the day
before but hung up heat record that
made the seasons maximum for a
number Of years past look like an ice
cream festival by comparison.
The sun burned and sizzled thruout
the day and was aided and abetted in
its work by feverish wind. which
made physical comfort impossible and
fairly curled up vegetation exposed to
tbs burning broadsides.
The maximum was not reached until
o'clock in the afternoon, when 1O2 de-
grees was registered on the govern
ment thermometer, but a heat almost
that severe was attained before noon
and continued until late in the after
noon.
The suffering in the city was intense
and it is believed that only the fact
that there was no labor during the day
prevented many prostratiOHs from the
heat But one case was reported to the
police during the day and that not ser
ious.
At o'clock yesterday morning the
thermometer registered IS degrees, and
two hours later the mercury had climb
ed up eight points. At 10 o'clock the
bulb showed So degrees and at noon SO.
From that point until 2 o'clock in the
afternoon the mercury climbed slowly
to 101 degrees and then to 102, the rec
ord mark at o'clock.
There it hung enaciously until 6
o'clock in the evening when it receded
to 101 and at o'clock had dropped
back to 80.
The heat was Of such volume and in
tensity that no relief could be obtained.
Hundreds and thousands sought the
parks and river banks but the torrid
breath Of the wind gave them but slight
relief there. Many left the city entire
ly and went to the country for the day.
but found the same burning heat which
prevailed in town.
