IN A POOL OF BLOOD-Fire Warden Lou Reno, 413 Second av. Dayton, was found in a pool of blood at 11:30 Saturday night on the floor of the engine house, on Berry st. having suffered a severe hemorrhage. Reno has been troubled for some months with lung trouble and for some time has been in ill health. This last attack was the severest he had ever had, and while alone Saturday night felt the spell coming on him, and knowing that no help was near managed to reach the fire alarm button and struck the bell.
Growing too week to sit up, he fell to the floor and when Officers Gratch and Ortlieb rushed into the engine house, Reno had nearly bled to death. Dr. Dennis of Speers Hospital and Dr. Senour, of Bellevue were called and the hemorrhaging controlled. Today he is no better, though resting easily. George Reno, a brother, is on duty today in his brother's place.
