tottered Captain Lyons saw the danger and shouted to his men Jump for your lives The men leaped into the river Some of them were unable to swim Several were struck by sections of tailing walls The men

FIREBOAT IS SUNKBY FALLING WALL
Crew Forced to Jump in River
1500000 Loss in
Chicago
CHICAGO Aug 4 The fireboat Illi-
nois was sunk In the Chicago riverand three men were perhaps fatally injured by the collapse of the south wallof Armour Elevator F early today Thewall fell upon the boat while the firemen were playing the hose upon theruins of the 1M 000 gralnhouse fire
All the men on the fireboat were com-pelled to leap into the river and swimfor their lives
Since the beginning of the fire theboat had taken part in fighting theflames During the night it kept underthe south wall of the giant elevatorpouring water on the hot debris Justas the naming wall tottered CaptainLyons saw the danger and shouted tohis men Jump for your lives
The men leaped into the river Someof them were unable to swim Severalwere struck by sections of tailing wallsThe men were compelled struggledesperately to prevent their being car-ried to the bottom by the suction of thesinking boat The fire tug Dennis BSweats narrowly escaped destructionIt was within a few yards of the Illi-
nois and was struck by flying beamsHundreds of people lined the banks
of the river when the accident oc-
curred Fifty feet of the elevater wallfell into the river
The Illinois with the Swenie hadbeen fighting from the river side thefire which destroyed flve grain
the Burlington deck freight house100 loaded freight cars and the coolinghouse of the American Refrigerator andTransit Company
Today the heart of the fire stillburned fiercely and a hundred firemenand two flreboats still remained oqduty
The fire swept almost clean the dis-
trict between Twelfth and Sixteenthstreets and between State and Canalstreets It Is believed to have beencaused by an employe of the Burlingtonfreight house throwing a lighted cigar-ette into chemicals in the building-
A high wind spread the fire with ter-rific rapidity and twice it leaped acrossthe river and started for the city FireMarshal Horan once feared the citywas at the mercy of the flames
