New Disease Attacks Drivers.

Chicago, Dec. 2S.-Eugene NJ. Bum

today of what physicians terms pet
romortis," or automobile gas poison
ing. According to physicians, it is
the first fatal case in Chicago from
that cause.
An idea of the violence with which
"petromortis' attacks its victims was
given today by DR.. John d. Ellis, head
of the Department of Occupational
Diseases of Rush Medical College:
"The thing is new to science in
some of its aspects" said Mr.. Ellis.
tPersons who are subject to vertigo
may be attacked when in a small,
close garage. The danger lies in the
failure of certain elements in the gas
oline to oXidize. In any event, there
is quick suffusion of violent gas
that renders the victim faint. Thus
if the exhaust of an automobile con-
tinues, the result is almost instant

Following Big Beach Fire

Los Angeles, Dec. 2S.-Undismayed
by the 100000 fire which early to-
day swept more than a third of the
$1,000,000 Fraser pleasure pier at
Ocean Park, residents and business
leaders of the beach city busted them
selves with plans and specifications
for immediate rebuilding along great
er and yet safer lines. With the dy-
ing embers cooling, those who had
suffered the largest losses were en-
gagged in the preparatory work looking
to rehabilitation.
eve will rebuild, and, moreover, we
will start at once," was the gist of a
statement issued early today by
Maynard Gunsul, manager of the
State Investment company and lessee
of the pier.
at is unfortunate, of course" Mr.
Gunsul continued, "but we have no
means of controlling destiny. We
must make the best of a bad bargain
and concern ourselves, not with the
past, but with the future
"The fire will have no evil effects
as concerns the midwinter fiesta,
which started here on Christmas day.
As matter Of fact, it will aid rather
than injure the drawing powers of
the fiesta. We have any number of
the biggest and best concessionaireS
from San Francisco in our midst, and
the fiesta will be staged daily along
improved lines. The fire itself will
act as a magnet to attract many who
otherwise would have hesitated to
visit Ocean Park"
Gunsul declared that the plans now
in the making will insure the COM
plete restoration of the pier within
sixty days at the most. A dance hall
of modern construction is planned and
work is destined to start as soon as
the debris is cleared away.
In addition, Earl Fraser, who owns
the piles, which are of concrete and
are practically intact, will set forth
his utmost endeavors to aid in the
rebuilding of the immense pleasure
pier. About one-third of the decking
was gutted by the flames, but a good
ly portion of this may be available
for repair work.
