DUBUQUE, Iowa, June 1O.-Mrs.

tragic story of seeing her mother
and 5-year old daughter meet
death in the Garfield Hotel fire yes
terday while she stood helpless on
the ground below.
The two, Mrs. Theresa Smith and
Judith Miller, permanent residents
OF the hotel, died on an upper floor
landing, apparently unable to move
further.
I saw Judith and mother at the

to, but Judith grabbed her and
wouldn't let 60 Then there was

she struck the pavement.
Police, firemen, sheriff's officers
and volunteers hastened up the fire
escapes, guiding panic stricken
guests to safety while smoke poured
from windows and doors.
Streams of water seemed to come
from everywhere. Although the
flames did not reach a great height
above the top of the building they
made roaring inferno in the rooms
of the hotel building, which con-
meets on the east with the annex.
Bodies Found in Ruins.
I had taken several pictures on
the outside. Police and firemen
permitted me to follow them to the
sixth and top floor of the annex
where the smoke made us cough
and rub our eyes. A charred body
lay at the end of the hall on the
sixth floor. The men put a canvas
over it. In room on the third
floor we saw man wearing shorts
sprawled on his stomach in front
of the window. He was dead. No
burns were on his body.
We went down the hall a short
distance and entered another room.
A dead man was lying on his
stomach just inside an open door
In a room on the second floor
man dressed in shorts was half
kneeling, half-lying across a bed.
Like the other two he had died

I went back down and watched

canvas. He walked over to the side
of the building and placed the figure

From Flaming Dubuque Hotel

Dubuque Telegraph HeroId Reporter
Written for the Associated Press)

DUBUQUE, Iowa, June 10-The
flames had already broken through
the top of the main hotel building
when I arrived on the scene at about
lis am. Smoke was coming
through the windows of the annex
at the opposite side of the hotel
part of the building.
A woman stood at a window on
the sixth floor and two men were
at another window on that floor.
Whether it was smoke or their
shocked condition that made them
wave stolidly could not be ascer-
tained. Firemen swung their long
ladder under the window in which
the woman stood. One of the fire.
men hurried up the ladder to help
the woman out the window and
assisted her in the descent to the
ground.
When the ladder was moved over
TO the window in which the two
men were standing, a third man
appeared at another window BY
the time the two men reached the
ground the third window was va
cant. Believing the man had fallen
back into the room, the fire swung
their ladder to that window. Un-
able to find the man, they later
learned that he had run to the fire
escape on the south side of the
annex and had followed the fire
escape to safety.

Fire Capt. Harold Cosgrove helped
TO drag his hose into position and
turning to me, said:

on rescuing them before we began
to fight the blaze. Thirty of them
jumped for nets that flremen and
dozens of volunteers held; q were
saved by ladder crews.
