The explosion and crash of the big dirigible machine through the skylight of the' Illinois Havings
and Trust Company at Chicago. -resulting In 12 deaths and Injuries to 28 other persons, marks an
era In which railroad wrecks and boat catastrophes must make way with their limited fields of calami
ties. Bank clerks and girl stenographers working In the seeming security of the great marbls (true
iture were crushed and burned before they could realise danger was near, as the airship plunged
'through the glass roof. These pictures show the Ooodyear blimp before the explosion; the wrecked
trust company after the fire, and pilot John Boettner of the air craft, who escaped by leaping with a
parachute.
