Jan. 4 —Warned by the terrible holocaust at Chicago the Council took action to-day to vrevent dangerous theater fires in Los Angeles. Building Superintendent Krause was | directed to make an examination of every theater in this city and to report their condition as regards fire precau- tions to the Council at the earliest pos- sible day. The Council went further and empowered the bufidinz superin- ' tendent to close the Grand Opera-house | on Main street. near First, if the man- agement refuses to provide suitable | exi ‘The buflding superintendent had | been informed that the exits were not | { in proper condition and that the man- | ager of the theater had refused to' change them.

Morrow of the fire under- writers, Electrician Manahan, Fire Chief Strohm and Plumbing Inspector Bennett has in hand the revision of the building ordinance, and when the report is presented, two weeks hence, | it will doubtless recommend some strin- ' gent regulations for theaters.

About 100 | passengers were aboard and it was| at first thought the steamer was on | fire. Captain Boggee slowed up the steamer and a hasty examination was | made and the cause was d|sco¥ered.| Many of the men put on life preserv- ers and the women began to scream, but by the prompt action of the of- ficers quietness was restored and the | trip resumed. The oil by flowing mm‘ the furnace formed a gas, which caused the explosion. Little damage was done to the'steamer. —_——— Kiiled by a Runaway Ore Car.
