f ntitt es compoee of the membesof the city coahcil appointed last

night to investigate the condition ofthe local theatres had to report uponwhat alteratioas are necessary to makethem conform to the building ordi-nances their first meeting today

Aocsrauir to statement of Alexarder Friestwlt one of the membero the committee it is doubtful if 35per cent of the theatres ever will reopen tfcefar doors Strict adherence tothe building laws would require thatevery of the play houses in the citybo eC fireproof construction and thwould require the demolition and

of th majority of the theatres

Alderman Jones chairman of thesaid tonight We will first

revise the building ordinances Thenwe will vteit the theatres and decidewhat alterations will be necessary to-

mtifef the constructitaof theMouce eonto tile law Ctf course the owners

or theatres will do nothing until theyKnow Just exactly what city aldermen will demand of them but they wljlbe obliged to reconstruct their theatresto conform with ordinances

Alderman Friend declared Someo the leedlujj theatres In Chicago can-not conform to the ordhiancess unlessthey are entirely rebuilt and they mayfind it too expensive to make thechanges I do not believe over 35 per-cent of them will ever open again anyhow

Tour Arrests MadeLate this afternoon the attorneys ofIt fire department caused the arresi

Jones wtfe aakipd why he went to theroof of theatre and replied that hehad been told that the north walt hadcracked Ill the fire and went to se if

lit was true He declared he had loos-e tf the skylights because he fearedthey might fall through and injuresomebody or the stage

Why did you take three iron workerswith you to Inspect a brick wallasked Attorney Fulkerson of the firedepartment

Jones was confused but finally an-

swered that the men went with himthrough curiosity

Numerous witnesses who were in adjoining buBdhigp overlooking the the-atre testified that the werenot open daring the fire

Inquest ThursdayCoroner Treager said tonight that he

was almost ready for the inquest whichwill Thursday morning

I wish it understood he said thatthis in not trial hut simply an inquiry determine the facts of the fireas far as we can The coroners jurywill not attempt to fix the blame oftime fire upon anybody ncr will it rec
