New Theory on Asbestos Curtain in Iroquois Fire
In Chicago January reports detail testimony that a curtain obstruction thwarted an emergency shut during the Iroquois Theater disaster. Joseph Daugherty testified two weeks earlier a curtain fire occurred, halted by the same obstruction that prevented closing last Wednesday, potentially saving many lives. Coroner Traeger prepared for the inquest with 140 witnesses listed, including Will J. Davis and Harry J. Powers. Officers and asbestos curtain issues surface as investigators probe ventilator operations and skylight doors, while defense and prosecution weigh prior fire rumors and responsibility.
