Four Drowned When Car Fails
Through Chicago Drawbridge "a
Chicago, Oct. 24--Hugo J. Warn
er, wealthy advertising man, and
three others, all social settlement
workers.. were drowned last night
when Warmers automobile plunged
Through aniopen drawbridge into the
Chicago river.
They were returning from giving
instructions in the Mazewell settle
ment house.
Warner, who was 81 years old, was
advertising manager and director of
the firm of Lord and Thomas. He
was master of the Boy Scouts of the
settlement.
The others who were drowned were
Sylvan Kusel, 20 years, law student
and teacher of English to the foreign
class at the settlement; Miss Lillian
H. Klausner, social worker in Max
well settlement and Hull House, and
Miss Jennie Klausner, her cousin,
teacher in the Jewish normal training
school.
Mrs. Henrietta J. Warner and Miss
Sara Bernstein, both settlement
workers and sociologists, were res
cued. They escaped from the closed
car and were thrown against piling
to which they clung.
The bridge had been opened to per-
NIT the passage of ship. The wo-
men agree that they did not hear
the warning signal, and that no
chains had been stretched across the
roadway. The automobile skidded
when Mr.. Warner realized the dan
ger, and applied the brokes only 10
feet from the open draw.
