RESULT FROM BOAT FIRE

RESULT FROM BOAT FIRE
Investigation of all lake steamers,
particularly excursion boats, is seen
as a result of the burning Of the
Graham & Morton steamer, the City
Of Chicago, yesterday.
Government and city officials alike
realize that only by a marvellous bit
of luck was another lake tragedy
averted after the wireless on board
the boat failed.
But the boat was only five miles
out in the lake when the fire broke
out in the engine room and by
marvellous run was able to get to the
government pier before the flames
had entirely wrapped the decks.
Had she been much further out,
with no other ships apprehensive of
her danger owing to the failure Of her
