THE DAILY EVENING TELEGRAPH PHILADELPHIA, TUESDAY, MAY 30, 1871. 7 THE TITT8T0X DISASTER. The Coroncr'a Inquest Important TestU mouy kllclted. Pittston, Pa., May 2'J. At 10 o'clock this morning, the jury, consisting of Messrs. James Welsh, James Fitzpatrick, G. W. Free- j man, G. Barratt, and Morgan Jones, miner, assembled at the office of Dr. J. Pomally, -when the following witnesses were ex amined: James McDeriuott sworn I was the engi neer in change of the machinery on Saturday, at shaft of Blake & Co., West Pittston; the first I knew of the fire ' was when Mr. Ken drick, superintendent, came to the engine house and called fire; I then saw the fire on the brattice, next to the fan, which is some fifteen feet above the engine-house floor; I . gave the alarm to the bottom of the shaft, by Soiling the wire connected with an alarm ammer; also gave an alarm through the tube; three engineers were at work at the time the.fire broke out; myself and Mr. Ken drick, one hour before the fire, measured the air at the fan, and found it 24,000 oubio feet passing through the mine per minute; the cracker weight is some fifty or sixty feet higher than the engine; there was no commu nication for alarm between me and the cracker boss; it was the business of Roland Gorman to oil the machinery; he was there only since Monday; I could not tell whether the fire -occurred at the fan er at the top of the shaft; if the fire occurred at the fan it might have been caused by a hot journal; I do not know whether there was proper ventilation or not; about three years ago the coal was first taken out of this mine; there is no place to get out , but through the main shaft; there is onlyone vein of coal; T. M. Williams, the inspector, 'Was in the mine last Thursday. Thomas Phillips, weigher of coal at the foot of the shaft, testified to being in the mine at the time of the fire.and when he heard the signal had just put a load of coal on the carriage. lie shoved the car off again, but saw no fire at that time at ,the foot; signalled but got no answer. Witness put on his coat, And as soon as be discovered there was fire went up on the carriage on its twenty-eighth trip. Witness was not told to warn the men. W. W. Kendrick, the superintendent of the shaft, was sworn, and testified as fol lows: My duty is to take charge of the mines, lay out the work, and take a general ' superintendence of the work above and be! low; I considered the ventilation sufficient for the number of men we had at work; we had from twenty-eight to thirty belonging to the Mary shafts and at work at the time; I employed Phillips; did not give instructions to him as to his duty, but gave Frank Keller instructions to inform Phillips of his duty: it was the footman's duty to attend and respond to signals from the engineer's room, or tell the weighmaster to do so; there is only one alarm rapper; four raps was to communicate with the speaking tube; it is not a warning of danger, but calling attention to the speaking tube; at the last visit of the inspector, he ordered whistles at the bottom to take the place of the rapper; the inspector stated that increased means of ventilation should be made as soon as possible; on Thurs day the inspector and myself tested the air in the passages, and found ten thousand six hun dred (10,000) feet per minute passing through. Mr. Williams, mine inspector for the dis trict, was called and sworn) He testified sub stantially as follows: It is my duty to visit the mines in my district as often as necessity requires it; I was at the mine on Wednesday, and the ventilation was bad in portions of the mine; in some places it was tolerably good; I went all through it, and in the last gangway , had to grope my way through the smoke in company with Mr. Kendrick; saw a dozen men in the gangway, and asked if they were working in the slope, if not, there were too many men in the mine; Mr. Kendrick said the men were engaged in the slope; I under stood that the company were to con fine themselves to twenty persons the num ber allowed by law and on my visit was told that the extra men were working on the slope: there was bat 1G80 feet of air in the mine at 10 o'clock the day I visited it for working purposes; I also called attention to the necessity of having whistles at the end of the speaking tubes, instead of the system of rapping; the 1G80 feet of air was divided into the three pits, and I considered it bad; I examined the fan and found that it was driven very fast, and the up-cast airway be longing to the fan was very small; I did not know that there were working on the gang way more than twenty men, but I saw others; but I was told that other men were at work in the slope preparatory to sinking another shaft. At this stage of the proceeding a contro versy arose between the witness, the Coroner, and the Coroner's counsel, duriBg which the counsel said if Mr. Williams did not answer the question he would have him (Mr. Wil liams) committed for contempt. Witness resumed The owners have been making efforts to improve the ventilation, but they have not improved it much; the plans were good enough, but the airway is not large - enough; the company were working under the 20-men law, and were compelled to do so until they made another opening; they could go for twenty years with the present opening if they did not employ more than twenty per sons; on the 12th of September fifteen hun dred feet of air went into the mines; this was before the present propiietors took charge; on the 14th of January the new firm had im proved the air considerably; I had supposed that over twenty men were working; it would have been my duty to go to the court and apply for an ia junction if the additional men were not discharged; in a conversation with MrKendrick I said, "You may work for 00 years contrary to law, and then again you may not work DO hours, and if anything hap pens the company would be swallowed up;" I ' was always very part ular to get the law com- Dlied with. Mr. Kendrick, the superintendent, testified that Mr. Williams never asked him how many men were at wors in the mine, and he never received any official notice that he should not employ more than twenty men. ' G. It. Gorman sworn I was employed as fireman at the breaker, and bad to oil the fan and breaker. The first I knew of the fire was when Mr. Kendrick came into the engine- room and called fire, and to stop the fan. I did so, and th engineer gave the signal in '' the shaft. I oiled the journals of the fan ' about 11 o'clock. It would run from six to eight hours between the oiling. Never knew . the journals to get Seated. Two years ago a fire broke out About the same place. After that the small roller was removed and a larper one put in to prevent a similar accident. On the day of the accident the governor on the engine was not working, but the engine could be t controlled by the throttle-valve. The engine was good enough, but the governor was out of repair. The belt would get oil the pony engine, and then the other engine would run too last. Richard Clark, footman in the mines, testi fed: I was in the mine and at the bottom of the shaft: saw the fire and heard the signal; it was my duty to notify the men; I called fire to the men at the scale, but aiaa t go back ia the works, and I came np on the third car, with two others; there was no one left after I came tip at the foot of the shaft to inform the men f danger. Phillips oame up on the fourth carriage after I did; men came up on the first and second carriage; I had never been instructed that it was my duty to inform the men in case of danger. Adjourned till to-morrow morning. FOURTH OF JULY, 1871. HAVE PLACED IN YOUR BAR ONE OF FENNER'S ATP A II AT US FOR COOL ING BEER, ALE, AND POUTER. A NEW PATENT. LAGER BEER, ALE, AND FORTER, APPARATUS. W. W. FEN N Eli, NO. 187 NORTH SIXTH STREET, Sole Agent for Stratpr's Patent. Tills machine is entirely different irom the old style Beer Pump. It performs Its own work, and requires no labor. The liquors are forced up from the cellar to the bar-room by means of a pressure of air made by force of water, and caa be drawn Just as clear as directly from the barrel. Among the many advantages claimed for this machine are. that the beer or ale never becomes oat, and can be drawn as cold as Ice water with very small expense of Ice. The Apparatus can always be seen at my place In operation, or at any of the principal soloons m this city. e 6 stuthm AFE DEPOSIT OOMPANIEt.
