Chicago, July 22.-Twelve dead and 26 injured was
the final count today of casualties in Chicago's most mod
ern tragedy the fall of an aircraft through the skylight
of a metropolitan business building. Late yesterday a
160-foot dirigible fell blazing into the counting room of
the Illinois Trust and Savings company.
Milton 0. Norton, aewspaper photo
grapher, aboard the Goodyear com
pany's "Wingfoot" when it fell bend
long into the Illinois Trust Savings
bank hero, died of injuries today. Nor
ton descended in a parachute, landing
heavily in Chicago's "Wall fciicet'" La
Millie. O i recovering his senses his first
winds were:
"Where nro my plates?"
Coroner Hoffman's jury first heard
eve witnesses tell of the spectacular ae
cident. W, 0. Young, tlio Uoodyenr's
representative with the "blimp," re
fused to testify, his attorney advising
that he might incriminate himself.
Two members of the "Wingfoot" ex
press and nine employes of the bunk
were among the dead. Most of (hem
weie burned to death when the Rns bag
with its heavy fusolr.ge burst through
steel and plate glass and spread burning
gasoline in all directions. A score of,
investigations headed by the rnrnnar
and the state's attiwney opened today.
Seventeen men, mostly employes of the
Goodyear Rubber company, owners of
the "Wiugfoot," were held for exr.mi
i ation.
Two hundred N clerks, bending nrei
their ledgers yesterday in the daily rush
to close their books thought of nothing
but their prosaic daily labors. Tncro
was a subdued hum of high pressure
work .
A shadow floated across the big sKt
li.ght, two floors above. Then a crash,'
8 blinding light and K detonation. A
shapeless mass hurtled through the glass
and fell fatly to the marble floor. It
was a man's body! Heavy machinery
followed and blinding white flames be
can to lick the marble pillars and the
twisted steel beams of the monster
which had tnrned a quiet counting room
into a burning inferno.
Screams arose immediately and as the
f 'nines leaped up or flowed along the
floor In rivulets of gasoline, hysterics
broke loose. A terrifie rash for tbc two
innii exits followed.
Tt was n long jump to the street but
women took it.
Some of the twenty thousand specta
tors attempted to catch the jumpers
but guceeded only in breaking their
falls. Strangely only a few wero in

Sun Francisco, Cal., July 'i2. The

danger. Some dived to the big vault
and swung Its door as fur shut as they
safely could. Men slid under their desks
to escape the spraying liquid f no. Th
flames caught them and drove them out
through other rivers of fire.
Within a moment white marble pillars
were blackened, marble floors were
jammed and there were blood prints
where seared bodies rubbed walls t-nd
doorways.
Those who died in the bank were pin

of the dirigible. Firemen, called whoa
tha dirigible first burst into flame,
rushed into the building at once to (irng
back those fallen on the edgo of ths
blaze. Some of the rescued were o
browned or blackened by the fire that
they could not be recognized.
It was h matter of minutes from the
time the shadow floated across the light
until the quiet bank building had been
turned iuto a furnace and men and wo

the flames shortly and the bodies under
the wreckage were taken out.

Defendant In Million Dollar
Libel Suit Takes Stand'
Agab Today.
Mount Clemens, Mich.. July 22.--(United
Tress.) Taking the stand for
his seventh day of grilling iu bin mil
lion dullar libel suit against the Chi
cago Tribune, Henry Ford wai today
even more cautious than yesteidjy.
Ford wore a smile when ho entered
the court room today. For the second
time he is a grandfather, a son having
been born yesterday to Mrs. l',dct Ford,
wife of the 25 yea, 0ld president of the
Ford Motor company.
Attorney Stevonsou, for the Tubuuc,
asked Ford if Jt was aot true that when
the allied coinmissiauers visited this
country to negotiato a war loan he suid
they should bo "canned" out of the
country.
The manufacturer admitted he had
made such a remark.
His memory failed him when asked
if he had auid bo would withdraw his
deposits from uay bank that subscribed
to such a loan.
"When you heard of the sinking of
the i.u.iitsuia, Mr. Ford, did you say
'the people having been warned had r.e
business on board.' "
"I have no recollection of saying
that."
An interview Ford had with Willis
J. Abbott, writer, was read, but little of
the article was remembered by tho wit
ness. Abbott quoted Ford as saying he had
not been ia Stockholm twu hours befure
he became convinced that the only way
to attain permanent peace was to crush
Germany and that American would be
required to aid in the war for pcrma
nent peace. The point made by the de
fense was that this was several months
before Ford's aiti aiilitariilic advuekt
isis. Ford said he did not go "to Stock
ho'ra, did reach such convictions and
did not remember making any tuck
sm'cmeiiu to Abbott.
Ford was takes on fuHher literary
excursions whea he took tha stand this
afternoon.
His own pc.'e advertising, Lincoln's
speeches, the Monroe doe'rioe and oth
er wririiis and documents, were dif
cusvd with the urging of Tribune at
torneys. During this Ford expressed tbt
opinion tfcaf the bible probably would
be clear if it we rewrites..
"Mr. Ford," said an attorney, "by
refusing t read exhibits I hand you,

you cannot read. On you wish that im

which baa lasted three nights. '
Ia street fighting last night four per

and thirty others wounded and attend
ed at hospitals. Scores of others were
hurt but hobbled or were assisted iby
frienda from the scenes of the clashes.
Four hundred soldiers and marines,
reinforcing the 700 police of the na
tional capital, were unable to cope with
tho mobs. While they were fighting
rioters at one place, another outbreak
would be reported from a quarter of
the. eity several blocks distant.
The negroes, better armed than the
white-s appeared to have, the best of
several encounters. Early this morning
automobiles, crowded with yelling
blacks, many of them armed, were
dashing; about streets in the residential
part of town, defying the whites to
"come on."
Tho coming of daylight and a terrif

Pleasing Musical Treat In
Fillion Company Concerts
The Ffllion Concert company, one of
ths tfiar Itf actions of the Ellison
Wh.'to chaulauqua to appear upon the
platform yesterday, was reduced to two
members, through tho illness of the so
prano; but if there had been forty in
the company it Is doubtful if they
would have contributed more to the
pleasure of the audience than was be
stowed by the two artist;, Ferdinand
Fillioa and M.is Hilmars, with their
piano snd violin numbers. Mr, Fillion
is a rare genius, for he combines the
typieal dash and brilliancy of the
Frenchman the poise and precision of
the Englishman; consequently he gives
the impression of producing iniiaclcs
of melody and bewildering iinpotsibili
tid of technique without any effort.
Possibly there may be greater virtuos
os than Fillion, but that rhaiitaiiqua
audience was very well wtified with
him, and if they could have had their
way with him they would have kept
him on the platform until midnight. It
would be difficult to conceive of any
thing more faultlessly exquisite and be
witching than his rendition of the third
movement of Mendel.sohn 's Concerto
in K minor, As for teelintque in ren
dering the transcription of gjl'sy mel
odies by Haiasale he appeared to ex
haunt all the po'silrlitios of the violin
ta the weird melodies.
Miss Hilmars proved herself a wor
thy companion srtist, both ia her ac
companiments and her piano solos,
which displayed the utmost degree of
finish along writh a auperb boldness
and brilliance. The two will be mark
ed "somber I" on many a Chautau
qua list.
If anyone entertained a vane regret
for tb absence of Edward ' F, Trefz.
from the program, it was abruptly for
goftea in the substitute lecture of Cap
tain Hiadler, who proved himself both
the orator and profound thinker in bis
lectore ''America at the parting of
the ways.'' IValing with a heavy and
ore or less sombre ubjcct, he Suc
ceeded ia injecting enough humor and
epigramalie dash into it to keep bis
audience smiling and applauding. Capt.
Hindley has traveled widely, mixed
with political leaders and observed
keenly ia America, and he gave hit
hearers an analysis of the present and
future conditions in this country that
will kecip them thinking. He dealt es
pecially with the problems of immigra
tion, education, Americanization and la
dustrial readjustment. He pointed to
the need of radical action in restrict
ing immiTTStioa, declaring that ws ksd

mates.
Tho worst outbreak occurred ia the
early evening at Seventh and T streets,
in the negro quarter, A mob of 1000
negroes started to in rack toward the
I'olico and soldiers charged them.
They refused to disperse aad the troops
charged, backed by the police. Many
residences of the whites,
of the ritoers started shooting with re
volvers. The fight lasted half aa hour,
during which negro women hurled bot
tles and other missies, from the win
dows and roofa of houses.
Several large mobs of white, formed
in the downtown district and tried to
invade the black bolt, but a cordon of
cavalry was thrown around that sec
tion after midnight.
Aside from tho main clash between
armed mobs, or between troops, polios
and crowds of whites and nogroca,
there was almost continuous guerrilla
warfare.

He pointed to the defects in our na

the fact that there were in the Ameri
can army during tho war 70,imm) boys
who could neither read 1ft write.' He
stronvlv endorsed the national educa
tion bill, and stated that we might well
copy after (jermany in this respect, for
it was the Germaa system of educa
Hon that enabled them to keep ths
world at bay for four years. He would
nationalize our public school system,
and then compel every child of any
rare, or color or creed to attend. He
declared there should b only one
"ism" In this country and that is Am
ericanism. Touching upon the Industrial situa
tion he showed tho de!perttte need of
getting together In peace a' we got to
get her in war for the adjustment of
labor difficult, for there is ill this
country a foment, of unrest, uncertain
ty and resentment that threatens indus
trial chaos. Referring to the peace cove
nant and the league of nations, he dc
dared that with all Ms defects the doc
ument that President Wilson brought
home from Versailles was the greatest
document ever drawn up by man, com
bining within Itself the essence of the
Mosaic law, the Mernmn on the Mount,
the Golden Rule, tho Magna Charta and
the constitution of the I'nited States.
H reminded his hearers that it had
taken the Almighty Itbres years to
make America retUiM her responsibil
ity for the bloodshed la Europe, and it
is unthinkable that we should return
now to the policies and conditions be
fore the war.
This afternoon and evening tho most
