Rome prayed aloud, others pleaded with the rescuers to say goodby to relatives, and not a few shrieked from pain and fright The dreadful spectacle unnerved many who were trying vainly to get to the victims, and some turned away tick- and fainting Members of the fire department with ladders, aided greatly in the work of rescue, but their time for work was •hort. for within a brief Interval fire closed over the wreckage, and the crie« of the Imprisoned were bushed. In the meantime the fire was spreading from the Grover factory. It leaped across Calxnar street to a three story brick block at the corner of Mala street owned by Ovaries F.
