[The Great Fire]
Illinois Staats-Zeitung, Oct. 18, 1871
The Chicago Workers' Association has resolved immediately to refund to every member and every widow of a member who owns a share ($10 the share for the building of the hall) the amount of the share. It was further resolved to pay the widow of the member Geyerstanger, who died in the fire, $50.
The Globe Theater which belongs to the Workers' Association, was rented last Monday by Col. Wood, formerly of the Museum, for $10,000 a year. It will be opened by him as soon as possible, with a stock company.
