Two others of the approx- Imately 100 in the structure were miasing. The identified dead were: Anthony Hardle, 24, and his 22- year-old wife, Olivg, and Loretta Bryor, 16; Doris l—ardle, 19 months. The bodies of a woman and a baby could be seen in the debris and were believed to be those of Mrs. Elizabeth Bryor, mother of Lor- etta, and Doris, nineteen-months-old daughter of the Hardies, The women were killed when they leaped from third story windows. The bullding was old, daling from World's Fair days, and was con- sumed quickly, despite efforts of more than a score of fire companles summoned by extra and special alarms, The occupants had no time to dress for the below freezing temper- ature, University of Chicago students from nearby fraternity houses aided in rescue and relief work as did guests of the adjoining Del Prado hotel. Many of the a{mrtmtnt house resldents were saved' by leaps into fire nets, while others crawled to safety over planks thrust Into their windows from the hotel. Sparks from the burning bullding, whipped by a strong wind, ignited acveral other bufldings, c¢ne three squares away, but no other serious damage was done. Efforts of the college students and hotel guests in caring for the fire victims prevented a ready check and the firemen sald it was possible other bodies might be found when they searched thoroughly the ice-covered debris. The body of baby Doris Hardle later was taken from the ruins, LIQUOR CASE CONTINUED Rumor Has It That Linnell, Princi- pal In Famous Danbury Expose Will Go Direct to Superior Court.
