Great Hall an Exceptionally Safe
One—Hanna Approves of Building.
\\
Chicago, Jan C,.....Although the coil-
M uni in which tin- national republi-
can convention Is to be held in June
was closed by order of ilulldlng Com-
missioner Williams today, it Is said
the order will lie rescinded within
forty-eight hours and that no change
in the emu.tuition plans will be nec-
essary.
The violation charged against the
coliseum is purely technical and It
was m, Mibnt.-r made than the matter
was lim stlgat.e I by Graeme Stewart ,
national committeeman from Illinois,
and Senator Hanna, who was in town
Their investigation over, the gentle-
men expressed an opinion that there
was no safer building' In the world.
Sl.atemr.uits to this effect were made
by .Mr. Hanna and Mr. Stewart and
their publication authorized. Mr.
Stewart said:
“I h -1 gn at personal responsibility
in tire matter and if the coliseum is
not a safe building for the conven-
tion then there is no such building
In the country."
Senator Hanna said: “The conven-
tion w ill be held in Chicago an plan-
ned. The coliseum t.s one of- Hie fin-
est structure# I have ever seen In its
provisions for safety."
It is alleged by the building depart-
ment that the coliseum violates the
ordinance, which requires that such
buildings shrill face on at least one
street and two public alleys or open
spaces, The coliseum to the west
fronts on Wabash avenue, while in
the rear It open# on n public alley.
To the south of the building Is what
amount# to a private alley and it was
here that the building inspector din
covered a technical violation of a sec-
tion of the building ordinance. This
alley is seventy feet wide and is cm
erert. In no other way does it differ
from an ordinary alley. The coliseum

his home In Mississippi. Mr. Will-
