, Men Worked in Eight“ Hour Shills
and Sixty Lived on the Crib ..

CHICAGO. Jan. 20.—~Tweniy men
are reported to have. lost their lives
in afire which destroyed the inter-
mediate water works intake crib, one
and onoshaif miles from shore off Sev-
entyvfirst street, in Lake Michigan to
day. Twenty-six injured. rescued by
the tug Morford, were brought into
the city.

The crib is one that was establish-
ed by the George w. Jackson Com-
pany, contractors. and is a mile and a
‘half out in Lake Michigan and con-
nected with the Here by an aerial
tramway.

The first notice that the fire broke
out came in a telephoncmessugc to
the offices of the Jackso Company,
on'the shore. The message read:

“The crib is on fire. For God‘s sake
send help at once, Or a dozen or more
of us will be burned alive. The tug
———“ Then the telephone wired burn-
cd off and the men on shore heard no
mom.

The crib is constructed wholly of
wood. with exception of a steel shaft
installed to keep it in place, and the
flames spread rapidly. Three shifts of
men were working on the crib. They

' havobeenliving in books constructed
at the crib. They worked in shifts
ogiflgight hours, twenty men to the
s . .

 

 

 

 

The tug T. 'T. Morford. which was
stationed‘there and which was used as
a means of escape by the workmen.
brought 26 of the injured to the city.
The boat itself had a narrow escape
from the flames. Matty of the men
rescued. some from the water, wore
suffering either from burns or from
the effects-of. smoke and heat. The

Sixty men, some at work. and others
asleep in their buns, were. suddenly
confronted with death by an explosion
of [louver or gas which immediately
wrapped the w'Ooden structure in
flames. Those who, were not killed
or injured by the first fiery blasts
rushed out. of doors to find no means
of escape. On every side were the
Lake Michigan Wailers. A mile and

the tug Morforli. '

Legislative Committee Fails to Agree
—-Maltes Suggestions

 

 

HARTFORD, Jan. 20.-—«Tlie report of
the committee appointed by the legiti-
laturc of 1007 to investigate and re-
port regarding legislation to regulate
the liability of employers was made
yesterday in the general assembly.
The report was a voluminous one, and
utter a review of the situation in this
and other states, and of the general

 

reaches the following oonclp‘g

The committee has not
to agree in thematter of
ing an act at this time. The represen.
intivcs of the employer and labor
classes would have been willing to
recommend a bill which should pro-
vide. first. for definite and limited in-
juries incurred in the course of their
employment. resulting in death or per-
manent disability; and, second, to op—
portunity to insure against injuries
and sickness. The compensation in
the first case to be borne exclusively
,by the employer, and in the second
case tile cost of insurance tobc borne
did not believe the people of this
state, were ready to take a step so rad-
ically different from the present prac-
tice. ,It was also very questionable
with the committee whether so small
by employer and employs.

The committee as a whole, however,
a'Section of cur country should take
such a step alone, and so‘ possibly
place the producers in this state at. a
disadvantage with those of other
states. ‘

Employers and Men Settling Down to
a Long Drawn Out contest

In the opinion of many local thought-
ful batters, the big strike has now set-
tied down into a, hard, long drawn out
battle, the end of which is nowhere in
sight at e present time. it can be
forseen, t . that the,l cost of the strike
will be enormous, and will not have
to last. a great length of time to cost
a million dollar-8.5

The strike has also reached a. point
now where it is raising havoc with
the spring trade of the members of
the Manufacturers”, Association, which

 

 

 
 

 
 

been pursuing the b agent‘adverttsing
campaign in the history of tho busi~
nose. lh'lhts publicity work whole
pages and double pages of the most

prominent and widely circulated por-

conie favorably known from one one of
the United States to the other and
wherever the American magazines clr
culntc. ' .
The C. and K. Company is now at
the height of its prosperity, and, as
has been mile known through these
columns, plans are out for a big five
story addition, whichris counted on to
practically double the present big out-
poot- The company, however, must.
abide by the decree of the Association
‘of Manufacturers according to the
present understanding, ”each being
bound under a bond of 826,000. The
other local shop, the John H. Woilltau‘
son Company, has also been doing it
good business in the rough but line.
The cntployes of the Smith Norwalk
factories closed on account of the
strike, have been greatly cheered to-
day upon the. receipt of. the IIeWs that
the New York and Brooklyn trimmers.
who previously had not been thorough-
ly organized, perfected an organiza-
tion, yesterday. and went on a strike.
This is counted on as being abolp on
the part of the union's fight to prevent
the manufacturers' efforts to break up

I the union‘s influence by declaring for

the open shop. The local batters, of
course, have nothing to do but quietly
await the news from headquarters—-
the national officers—find are taking
the situation as philosophically as pos-
sible. They gather daily at Central
Labor Union Lyceum in Washington
street, to learn developments.

There is some conjecture as to who
ther the strike will extend throughout
the industry eventually. It is now tak-
on for granted that unionism n the
in ustry is at stake. ,
