Dec. 28. —With eighteen persons known dead and thirteen inmates still itilssing a coroner's jury today started an Investigation of the fire which swept the Chicago State Hospital for the Insane Wednesday night. In a tangled mass of debris, police last night found the charred body' of another man, bringing the total to eighteen. The body was too badly burned to make identification possible. Oscar Wolff, coroner of Cook County. announced he had selected his jury —composed of six “prominent citizens”—and was preparing evidence for the official inquiry' into the cause of the blaze and deaths. “It is remarkable the loss of life was not greater," Wolff declared after making a personal investigation of the ruins. “The building was of flimsy construction. The floors were old and highly inflammable. The doors left standing, I noticed, swung inward instead of out. “No flatter who may be hit, I’m going to the bottom of this. The State must care for its insane at this time more than ever before, because more of them are insane because of their .errible experiences in the war.” MRS.
