~ CONSTRUCTED BY CONTRACT. ‘The Investigation in Regard to the Eleventh Street Accident—The Coroner Sounding the Depths—Mortar That Melts Into Mud— How Tenement Houses Are Con- structed—The Cheap Prin- ciple in Building. ‘The inquiry into the cause of and matters gen- erally connected with the lamentable accident caused by the falling of the tenement house in course of erection at No. 321 West Eleventh street was resummed yesterday morning at the Coroner's ‘ofnice. @oroner Herrman, on assuming the chair, took occasion to draw the attention of the jury to the Jact that thoughhe had subpoenaed many of the most prominent builders in this city to render their opinions as to the cause of the accident, these gentlemen had either sent paltry excuses or paid no attention to his legal demand for their services, This disregard for his man- dates, the Coroner considered, was due to the fact that “the trade” was clannisb, and builders did not wish to compromise themselves by giving opinions which, 1f honest, would be derogatory to one of their fellow craftsmen. Mr, Hermann also quietly called attention to the manner in which the Inspec- tor of Buildings, the masons, contractors and car- penters were trying to shit the burden of respon- sibility to the. shoulders of each other, THE TESTIMONY. cailed yesterday was William Jose, in architect, and resided at No. 155 The first witn who said he w: t Bowery; he drew the plans for the alterations of the house No, 321 West Eleventh street tour months azo; the Duilding Was to be altered into a flye storied double tene- ment house, to accommodate four families on each flocr, except the first. which was to be used as two stores; the house was originaliy a three story and attic edifice; he examined the old building and eonsiaered THE OLD WALLS strong enough to build new walls upon; several bids were inade ior the contract; Mr. Holzderber (the owner) chose his own mason and carpenter against the consent ‘of the witness, Who told him to secure a good, reliable man; did not know Crawtord, but made no objection to him, as Holzderber thought hé was competent: Holzder- ber came about six or eight weeks after witness drew his plans and wanted him to draw a contract, but was told by Jose that he did uot know Crawford; witness visited the building twice a week while it was In course of construction; was there the Tuesday "previous to the accident; the men were working; the masons were ising the Walls and the carpenters were preparing to he third Ler of timbers; the specifications were at some of the old tlinvers should be used; examined the old beams that were put inand deemed them sound; the gable was supported by beams runuing across in front and rear; noticed the beam holes, and found that fome were not built in, while others were patched with Drick and mortar; consitered the walls strong enough and the foundations sate; it would have COST TWO THOUSAND DOLLARS. more to have built ona new foundation and wall; the old foundation was twelve or tourieen feet, and was bot tobe aliered; witness did not hear of the catastrophe until four P.M. on the day it occurred; thought the cause of the Jalling of the walls was due 'to the beams ‘which braced the walls having ocen removed; and the action of the heavy rains; there was an inch’ of space between the wall and adjoining building, but the wall was plumb; it was twelve inches thick, except the upper part, which was only eight inches; the peak, ‘which was eight inchos, and four to five fect’ high, was to be taken down; that part was safe, being braced by two purloines, Walter W. auams was the next witness sworn.

THE BOARD OF HEALTH. Action Taken Yesterday—Why Cholera Comes to Us—The Fetid Rubbish in the Avenucs—Reports of Inspectors and Medical Men—Unpaved Streets Sinks of Disease. The Board of Health held their regular semi weekly meeting yesterday afternoon, all the mem- bers being present, The Board’s attorney reported thirty-two cases of non-compliance with the orders of the Board, many of them being the reoccupation Of cellars which had recently been vacated. A resolution was adopted requesting the police to again clear out these vile dens, . ‘fhe Registrar of Vital Statistics reported as fol- OWS :— In the week ending on the 0th of August 613 deaths Tere reported in this city. During the previous week the actual number of deaths was 626, Upon that namber and for the third week in August the comparisons are made, Compared with the records of the corresponding ‘week of 1572 ‘he total number ot deaths was less by 119 in othe third Week in August this year. The number of deaths of children under five years of age was sixty- tless. The record of mortality in the ten past weeks Deaths of Chit- dren Onderd Years of Age. e is as follows :— The sudden death of Edwards, a Cornish miner, at an emigrant lodging in Front street the morning alter land- ing, became the subject of much comment Careful in- v tion and the autopay in that case showed that It Was ot cholera, but the destructive lesions of fever that killed him. The Coroner notified the Health Department of this sudden death, and the inquiries which were immediately made by sanitary ofloers proved that no pestilence was connected with the case. A report from one of theAssistant Sanitary In- ectors was next read. It gave statistics as to the amount of unwholesome and decayed fruit which had been brought here by vessels from Southern and other portal and either destroyed or returned to the producers. Dr. Janes’ report gives the following comparative statement of contagious diseases for the two weeks ending August 30:— ——Ferers ——— Week Zy- Ty Mea Diph- Smalt- endin whus, phoid. “tet sles. th : August $3 Ben gy ime ee Ngee 24 o 2 2 f) Dr. Stephen Smith, of the Sanitary Burean, re- Ported on the condition of the streets. His subor- dinates reported to him that in the First, ‘Third and Filth wards there had been but little improve- ment, though less filth and ordure were found in “the Battery ward.” The garbage and refuse in the Tenth and Thirteenth wards were still accumu- lating, while the Eleventh and Twelfth were com- paratively clean. The Sixteenth and Seventeenth wards are weil kept, and the streets in the ‘Twenty- first, having been swept during the past week, are in a tolerable condition, though some of them are so poorly paved as to be dangerous to trafic, First avenue, from Twenty-sixth to Thirty-flith Street, 18 mentioned as having been in a very bad state for the last two years, there being large holes in the pavement which are tilled with filth, The Twenty-second ward streets are in a very bad condition, especially the unpaved thorough- farea, and Fortieth street, petween Ninth and Tenth avenues, From the Twenty-seéond ward comes the report that Tenth avenue, from Sixty- fourtn to Sixty-sixth street, 18 in a frightful state, the whole roadway consisting of ashes and gar- bage, with intersecting pools of stagnant water.

Meeting of the Board of Education— Shall the Colored Children Sit in Class with White Scholars t—Petition for the Kemoval of the Barriers of Race in the Public Schools. The Brooklyn Board of Education met yesterday afternoon, at their rooms in Red Hook lane, Mr. Whitlock presiding. The PRESIDENT stated that he had received a petition, signed by 173 residents of Brooklyn, part of whom were colored. It complained bitterly of the exclusion of colored children from the com- mon enjoyment of the privilege of attend!ng any of do, and, the addition having been inserted in the spect. fication, witness approved it: it is the duty of the sub- inspecton ot a district to visit buildings in ccurse 01 erec- tion every day; last June Mr. Dickinan had charge in that department; Mr. Purdy relieved him June 24; his district extends trom Canal fo Fourteenth st d in and Macdougal streets and the North Ki bie, in the witness’ opinion, for him to pi ach one of the new build- Mr. Purdy had some un- sale buildings in Hudson street to look alter on. the 2d Mil, and could not be in attendance at the Eleventh etrect building on the morning the accident occurred, {The maps and plans of the building were here exhib- ited to the jury.) Witness gave it as his opinion that the cause of the dis- aster was due to the removal of the old timbers on the third tier of the attic floor that had been leit to act as braces; he did not think the weather had had any effect on the walls; it only delayed the work of the framers: these men were working under Newman, who was the “boss” carpenter; Wiiness knew Crawiord, and added that there are many men in the business who are not competent to build, but who cannot be legally prevented from so doing. » yg Jesse Newinan, on being sworn, said that he wasa ‘parpenter and resided at No, 744 Washington street; he had contracted to do the carpenter and tramework in the alieration of the building No. 321 West Eleventh street commenced work four weeks prior to the accident; h sub-contracted the traming to a man named Michae Pioriner, who resides on Ninth avenue, and came to im with good recommendations; he had never worked for witness before: he did the traming, setting wirders and posts, the flooring, set all the partitions, put op the roof, &c. ; witness was in the building half an hour botore it tell; at that time the workmen had just levelled ‘Up the third tier of beams; left the spot in company with Mr. Piortner; attribute the falling in of the walls to ‘THE INCLKMENT WEATHER, ‘which softened the mortar. ‘Witness further stated, when closely cross-exam- fmed by the Coroner, that he had never “served his time” as an apprentice in the carpenter trade, but had been an artificial limb manulacturer. Gilbert J. Bogert, of No. $9 Christopher street, testified ‘Mhat he had been a builder tor twenty-five years; he saw the house during its course of alteration and subsequently viewed the ruins; the building was thirty-two feet on its front, and the partitions were not properly put up tor that space ; the girders in the cellar were 8x10, and the ‘ights 4x6; the root was taken of and the building Mood without it tor a space of two monthss It braces hed laced between the wails, tront and rear, the walis witness considered that wns the cutting of a channel of four inches in the westerly wall and the removing of the old beams, leaving the Bpber part of the house unsupported, there being no var- tition between the walis. He did ‘not think the rain siorms had any ettect upon the stability of the editice. yohn L. Hamilton, # carpenter, resident at No. 318 West Twenty-seventh street, was next examined. He zestified that he had inspected the ruins of the building ase the request ot Crawtord, and the deductions he drew arom their appearance induced him to coincide to the jetter with the tesulaiony of the previous witness, Mr. omer Levi J. Fuller, who lives at No. 320 West Eleventh street, isa mason. He watched the building while it was in course of erection and told Crawford that he thought the old beams were strong enough; he could not under sand why the building fell unul he heard that the beams fad been taken out; the cause of the cw was then viear; the inclination of the walls was inward and the ‘arloin plates were insufMicient to support them; there were two old chimneys that had been cut off which made THE WALL TOP-WRAVY ; {t would only have cost $5 to brace the walls; the rain storms of the previous week had nothing to do with the Wisaster, in the depouent’s opinion. Michael Pfortner, of 735 Ninth avenue, testified on sath that he was a framer and contracted with Newman to do his guota of the work on the newly-to-ve-erected house No. 321 West Eleventh street. He was m@ the building at hali-past eleven A. M. on tae forenoon "of the day upon which’ the accident occurred ; felt himself incompetent to give a plausible theory as to the cause of the disaster; had con- Hructed many buildings and this was the first and only ne Whichhad falen; when he quitted the premises he | med everything swie; the beams were taken gut at ssn early bour on the morning of the casualty Coroner Herrman, in view of the fact that none of the maay witnesses he had subpunacd were present, then adjourned the inquest until ten | Welock A.M. to-day. THE “MAZEPPA COTERIE" CASUALTY, Allegations Against the Police. Many of the friends of the late Edward Down- mg, member of the Mazeppa Coterie, who was | killed jate on Saturday night by falling amongst a amass of rocks, 100th street and Kighth enue, while escaping from an Eighth avenue car Am which aranken members of the Coterie had commenced fighting and rioting, allege that he wa ‘unwarrantabiy beaten by certain members of t) rst precinct who were called in to q' the disturbance and silence the beiltj tain McDonnel! yesterday caiied att omce, and in conversation about entrence, denied that the members of his .command had used any undue vio- dence towards deceased. The officers found it necessary to use their locusts freely in order to re- dace the rioters toa proper state of subjugation, asd, while doing so, Downing jumped from the car and fell down among the rocks. Witnesses on both sides have been summoned, and Coroner Herrman will make an investigation on Friday, BOARD OF POLICE JUSTIOES, Mecting Yesterday Afternoon—Appoint- ment of a New Record Clerk. The Board of Police Justices held their meeting the public schools, designating it as an act of great injustice and tending to perpetuate the humilla- tion and degradation of the race, and asked for the aboushment of the rule, Alter the reading of the petition Mr. Linny made a strong speech in favor of putting the colored chiidren on an equality with the whites and allowing them to enter any of the public schools in the city. The race had been elevated, and colored meu were how IN IMPORTANT POSITIONS in the Church, in Congress, and positions of trust, and there was no longer that distinction between the whites and blacks. Mr. GARRET BERGEN concurred with Mr. Libby. Mr. Hunrzr moved that the matter be referred to the Attendance and Teachers Committee. Mr. Ruopes said there was a ucgro in the fence somewhere, He thought it would not be well to close these colored schoois, tor the colored children, if sent to the white schools, would be insulted and THEIR LITTLE HEADS WOULD BE PUMMELLED by the white boys, Mr. CARROLL moved, as an amendment, that these colored schoois be ciosed, as it was evident that some parties were endeavoring to make public capital out of them. ‘this was opposed by Dr. SHEPARD, who said it would never do to close the doors of these schools and turn the colored children in tne streets, He doubted if any of these colored people would send their children to the other schools. These schoois were now opened to them, but they pre- ferred to send their children to the colored schools, showing that they were periectly well satisfied. He had visited colored school No. 1 yesterday morning and found they had a larger attendance than they ever had before. Where ib eee had been made to white schoois they had been admit- ted, and this petition came from a member of this Board whom, he thought, had some object in view. The schools, in his opinion, should remain as they were. Mr. Hexnesszy said that the men who agitated this question were no iriends of the colored people, and did them a great injury if they abolished these schools. Ifthe skin of these people was black they should be prond of it. It was no disgrace, and they suould not #eny it. Mr. Garrer Bercen—You deny you are an Irish- man and say you are an American? Mr. HENNESSEY (eXcidediy)—No, sir, I do not. After some further argument a vote was taken on Mr. Carroll's amendment and it was lost. The motion of Mr. Hunter to reter the matter was car- ried, Y BROOKLYN EXCISE RATES, A meeting of the Brooklyn Board of Police, Health and Excise was held yesterday, at which it was resolved that the prices of licenses for the sale of spirituous liquors, ales, wines and beer should be as follows :— lass liquor saloons. class liquor saio The classification of liquor stores is to be based upon the amount of business they do.
