CORONER PROBING . FIRE AT ST. LOUIS Seeks to Place Responsibility for Loss of Life. St. Louis, March 12.—One hundred men working under the direction of the city began digging away the ruins of the Missouri Athletic club, under which "lie buried twenty to thirty-five bodies of members who_ lost- their lives in the fire which destroyed the seven-story morning. Ten bodies have been found. At the same time investigations in- to the causes of the fire were opened by a coroner’s jury and a joint com- mission from both branches of the municipal assembly, with a view to placlng responsibility for the great- est death toll of any fire in the city’s history. Building Commissioner McKelvey said that the remodeling of the Mis- souri Athletic club building by which it was converted from a business block to a club house with sleeping quarters was illegal. “The original permit for the remod- eling,” he said, “was for the instal- lation of forty-three sleeping rooms. This permit was revoked when it was found that ninety-eight sleeping rooms were being put in. All the work done after the revocation of the permit was illegal.” oo oo ofe ok oo oo ofe oo e oo oo b ol ol oo b b &+ INVENTOR OF SALOON FREE LUNCH DIES. Chicago, March 12.—Joseph C.
