fire MAROONS
AGED WOMAN
Held on Roof for More Than
Hour While Blaze Is
Fought.

Driven from her bed early today
by heat and smoke from a fire at
the John w. Brown pharmacy, 24O1
North Illinois street, a 74-year- old
woman, Mrs. Anna Stedfeld, was
marooned on the roof of an adjoin-
ing building for more than an hour
while tiremen fought the flames.
Mrs. Stedfeld and other occupants
of apartments on the second floor
of the building, housing the phar-
macy, narrowly escaped death by
fire and asphyxiation, but al
reached safety.
Warning was sounded by Miss
Edith Gray, Apartment 8, who was
awakened by the smoke. Several
of the families were able to flee down
a stairway to the street.
Loss to stock and fixtures in the
pharmacy was established at 1900
by Brown. Mrs. Stedfeld said dam
age to the building amounted to ap-
proximately $1,000. Entire loss is
covered by insurance.
Firemen said the blaze was start
ed by cigaret in a showcase in the
store. The interior Of the store was
swept by the flames, and the floor OF
Mrs. Stedfeld's apartment, directly
above, was blistered by the heat.
Drapped in bed clothing and
heavy coat, Mrs. Stedfeld was led to
safety by her two sons.

Cities Demand Relief
Senator La Toilette today urged
the senate to abandon "semi-star-
walton relief" and approve the $780,
000,000 unemployment relief meas
ure sponsored by himself and Sena-
tor Costigan.
Direct federal aid for unemployed
now is an absolute necessity, in the
opinion of an overwhelming major
ity of the cities of the United States
La Toilette submitted ten ques-
tons to city officials this winter, tc
learn the exact status of relief ex-
penditures and the need for more
expenditures, and answers received
by him were made public today.
Eight hundred ninety-eight cities
replied to the following question
In your judgment, can the un-
employment relief problem be ade-
quantely met unless the fedora.

tribution and co-operates with the

GIG Cities Say mo"
Six hundred sixteen cities an
swered No.
Thirty-five others were doubtful
twelve favored federal help of some
kind, eleven said help must come
from either the federal government
or the state.
Only POP answered that they viii

eral contribution.
The first question in the list SEN
out by Senator La Toilette asked fol
a comparison of the number nov
unemployed with the number of un-
employed in December, 1881.
One hundred ninety-eight cite.
reported increase up to 40 per cent;
161 cities an increase up to SO pei
cent and 225 cities an increase Of
100 per cent and over. Only fifteer
cities reported decrease, and thir-
ty-one said there had been nc
change. The decrease was account
ed for in several instances by sea-
sonal employment which had tenn
porarily reduced the number Of
those in need.
A large number of cities which
still are making relief appropria-
tons and increased them this win
ter still are unable to meet the need
in their communities because of the
rapid increase in restitution.
