West Side gas explosion where it be-
longs was started by States Atty

Henry Goldstein Of Elgin, plumb
er at 80 Lake st., went into the
basement of the restaurant a few
minutes before the explosion came
when his companions smelled gas
and asked him to investigate.
Il went downstairs with an cleo
trio fashlight and found that the
service pipe was split. But the gas
was so thick I could hardly stand it.
So l left the basement and phOned
the gas company to send out an in
spectOr Then the blast came and
that's the last thing I remember until
found myself in bed"

YOUNG GIRLS THROAT CUT IN
BRUTAL MURDER

A staTtlingly brutal murder was
uncovered this morning when the
body of Meta Yerion, 20, 1924 Prai-
RE av., was found half buried
in an ashpile in the rear of the Pick
wick cafe, 1898 Cottage Grove aV.,
by H. P. Mayer Of 3008 Ellis av.
There was a knife wound in her
neck, which the police say caused
death. The heels of her shoes had
been scratched in such a manner as
to lead the police to think she was
dragged some distance, probably
from 31st. She had been mistreated
before the murder.
The girl, who is described as ex-
tremely pretty, was an usherette at
the Chicago theater. She worked at
the theater last evening.
