Oust Mayor Conrad Koehler From Wilson Club
Prominent party members not affiliated with the Wilson Club plan to oust Mayor Koehler over his nonpartisan election stance. A Democratic meeting launched the drive, with a resolution accusing him of not being a Democrat and acting for selfish interests. Koopheler’s dues nonpayment was cited to challenge his good standing, while opponents vow to press the issue at the next gathering. Indignant party members defend his long local service and oppose what they call an unwarranted attack.

Death House Inferno Claims Three More At Wentworth
Chicago March 19 The infamous death house at 2859 Wentworth avenue burned again causing three deaths. Frank Pastella and Jas Cavelieri escaped with severe burns by leaping from a second story window. Mrs Pastella and her daughters ages five and seven perished from smoke as they reached a window. The house earned its grim name from ten years of fatalities including Jacob Werner who started a market there and died by suicide. Werner’s clerk Fred Kunz later saw his daughter die in a pickle vat and perished soon after under mysterious circumstances. A tenant named Strauss was murdered there and an Italian resident killed himself under the porch, all recalled by local undertaker M. W. Schroeder.
