* THR CHURCH DISASTER Continuation of Testimony Before the Coroner's Jury. WITNESSES WHO KNEW THE DANGER. The Treacherous Walls Allowed to Stand to Save Property for the In- surance Companies. LONG CRACKS DISCOVERED. Mr. Titus, the Mason, Would Not Have Willingly Slept by the Side of That Wall. ‘The inquest to discover who Is, or are, responsi- ble for the killing of Michnel McCarty, three poor Women and an unfortunate young boy in St. An- d@rew’s church, on Thursday night, a week ago, drags wearily slong. So far as to decide the ways in which the devoted beings lost their lives, the Inquest nas been completed. But these were well known before the inquest was begun, and the legal ceremony only gave ihe facts acortain stamp of judicial verity. The testimony given from day to day, since Monday, has been of what maybe termed a kaleidoscopic character. It has kept ar- tanging and roarranging the places of the per- tons connected with the erection, destruction and repair of the Shaw Bullding, and the public oMcials, with respect to responsi- Dility for the falling of the west wall of that building. Now it nas put forward one man, or ove sct of men, and seemed about to mark bim, or them, with the word “responsible;” then suddenly it nas shaken itself up again in the witness box, 80 to speak, and produced new com- Dinations of men and responsibility. To speak exactly, the evidence during the inquest does not maicate a place for the jury to lay the blame for Whe disaster that occurred to the congregation in Br. Andrew’ It is kely that no one person will pe charged exclusively with that blame, but that Ye will be distributed among many men, and so fall the lighter upon each. THE TESTIMONY, Monmonth B, Wilson testified:—I live at No. 256 West Twenty-first street; am a superintendent of the Fire patroi, whichis supported by the insurance companies; my office is at No, 156 Broadway; I bad the interests of the insurance companies in charge at the time of the fire in Mr. Shawis build- Ing and afterwards; I examined the walls imme- lately after the fre; I nad from twenty to thirty men in the building alter the fire av work 1n tak- lng out woat property could be reached; I consia- ered the walis safe, or 1 would not have put the men at work tn the butiding;I saw one crack, a small one, on the upper story; it was more of a seam than anything else; I did not no- tice that the east wall was out of line; noticed there was a crack in the arch; 1 made my examination from the street; the day aiter the fre Mr. Shaw went to work tosecure the walls without waiting for the insurance companies. as \s tne usual custom; I did not goon the roof of pweeny’s Hotel, nor on the roof of the tenement house, nor on that of the charch, to examine the walls; 1 took the line of the west wail trom the fecond story of the building across the way; the beams of Mr, Shaw’s building had come down by weight, and had been burned afterward, and as the walls had not been thrown down or appar. ently been injured by the Jalling of the beams, I thought they were safe; I examined the walls be- fore allowing my men to go to work in the build- ing; I think that a wail 96 fect nigh, 90 feet long and 16 inches thick SHOULD NOT BE LEFT Standing without bracing; these walls were braced; I know the Department of Buildings had pronounced the walls unsale; while 1 was at work I had no communication with any of tne engineers o1 the Fire Department in reierence to the dangerous condition of the walls during the fire; 1 do not think it would Lave been well for the Fire Department to have thrown the walls down; I do not think 1t would have been well to have thrown down the upper portions of the Walis; my business is to save as much property as | (oan lor the underwriters; the jact of merchan- ise being in the store would influence my action | lp regard to the walls; I would not have liked to see tke walls go down upon the prop- erty in tbe store, unless in order to prevent loss 01 Iife; 1 would not have pulled tho walls gown ip a mass; 1 think the proper way | would have been to have braced the west wall on | the outside, and then to have erected scaffolds on tue inside; the wall could have been buckled in- side and out; I think a brace coul! have been put from the roof of the church to tne outside of the wall, but J do not know whether or not the roof of tbe church Was strong enough to uphold a heavy ce; I saw a gentleman connected with the De- artment of Buildings in the building while | was but 1 had no conversation have had no _ conversation connected with the De- partment of Buildings; I was at work with my men aiter the walis were pionounced unsaie by the Department of Bulld+ lng«; 1 wasat work In the building abeut two Weeks, and all that time the work of “shoring up’ tue walls was going on; I exercised no an- thority in reierence to whether the walls should be Jeit to stand or be taken down. ELISHA KINGSLAND TESTIFIED. Ilive at No. 24 East 117th street; 1am General Secretary of the board of Underwriters; I was the first Ostet Engineer of the pata Fire Depart. ment; last luesday | examined the wails of Mr. Shaw's building; as iar as I could judge irom the condition o1 the walls at that time I formed the opinion that the west wall should have been | laxen down to the third story beams im- | mediately after the fre; it used to be tne duty of tue Chief Engineer to examine the walls of # building as soon as a fire Was extinguisned, and li they were in a danger. | ous condition to direct the engineer under nim either to have them thrown down or “cnipped off; I tnink tue Fire Department has the power to throw down walls which they consider danger- Ou; anyhow It has exercised that power nitherto; | 1 think the most dangerous portions of the wails | of Mr. Sbaw’s building could have been “chipped” | into the buiiding without eudangering the ad- joming bulidings; I was ap engineer in the volun- teer department for eleven years and a hall, and+ Chief Engineer of the present Fire Department for jour years and a nail. HUGH BONNER, CHIEF OF BATTALION pf Department, was recalled, and testified :— L was on wuty on the morning upon which the Shaw Building was on fire; Chiet Engineer Bates | Was there in charge irom avout a quarter ol an hour after the tire broke out untilit was extin- guished; daring cne progress of the fire the Chief | regarded the wull as aangerous; alter the fire was | out the wall was considered dangerous, bat not | hkely to fall imwediately; I have a decided opin- lon that ail walls that have been subjected to a Bevere heat snould be levelled, as not fit to be Suilt upon; this opinion is based upon my experience as a fireman; I think a building would be weak if recon- sucted upon Walle that have been ubiecied to great heat; 1 noticed that the east wali was unsaie; it had sprung from Sweeny’s Hotel, but tt aid not tall; the west wall of Shaw’s building could po; have been thrown down with- out danger to the church; if tne wall had been pulled in by grappling it would have endangered the adjoining property; Ihave been a fireman for Giteen ye with any person AMOS N. TITUS testified :—I live at No. 31 East 128th street; am a | Mason and builder; I examined the wi o: Mr. Shaw's duilding the day aiter the fire; I thought they were in a very dangerous condition, as the beams were ail burned out from the basement to the rool; I noticed acrack running perpendiculariy In the west wall; that crack extended irom the top of the building down four stories; it was on a line with the window jrames; I noticed it when I was on tne roof of No. 16 City Hall place; I said to several persons that tt Was a miracle that the wail had not falien atthe time of the fire; at the same tine I knew tue Wall was well batit = 1 HAD ERKCTED IT MYSRLI (n 1861; the same day or several da terward I | @xpressed the same opinion to Mr. Shaw; I would | Say that as high as the wall was sixteen inches | (hick it was sale; the whole rear wail was not | Sale; part of the east wall was safe; | saw irom Sween)’s tat that part of the east wall which | Acjoined the wall of the hotel had “sprung” or been pushed over about jour inches; I do not think { saw any cracks In that portion ef ge cast wall; (had nothing todo witn securing The walls, nor wito the butiding at all until tue Lzto of February, When the agreement was signed; | was to take down tur stories of the westerly wall, two stories of the eusieriy and jour stories of the rear Wall; Twas tuen to reoutid the walls; 1 cannot Say that I saw anything dene to shore up the walls at the time Lentered npon my work when the contract was signed; | found no braces there at that time; the walls were in my charge, bat [ did not consider that {was responsible for them; { was Working under Mr. Snook's supervision; there had been about eighteen veams put into the duliding after the fire, and, though vey strengin- ened the buiiding, tiey made it BY NO MEANS SAPR; iknew of the dangerous condition of the wall when I went to work; | wanted tne carpenter | | lighter. | Gilderoy, NEW YORK HERALD, FRIDAY, MARCH 5, 1875 to putin all the perm: nt ms, as they woul! Strengthen the wal!s; 1 also intended to have temporary beams put in cn the upper storie some new holes for beams were cut in whe wail: hut Ido not think that they injured them; a chan- nel was cut about three feet long, and then a pier was left; a beam Was put into the channel; 1 think the walls cowid have been thrown down into the butidmg and | think they should have been thrown down belore the Pire Department went avip on the day of the fre, Juror—Did the same necessity exist fur tearing down and rebuilding aiter you got ssion of the building as existed Irom the time of the Ore until the 12th of February ? Mr. Titue—I don’t think it did; the upper part of the walls had not been made secure by beams, nor had avy voles been cut there tor braces; the car- penter and {ramer were not under my control; I think there were some étghteen scattering beams put in before I went to work; [do not think there were any braces in the sixth story in the rear; the jast rear timber was put in the filth story within a few days after the signing of my contract; I cannot say how many men were in the Dutlding at Work immediately alter the fire; my contract was only tor the mason work; I am in hr? habit of taking contracts lor dangerous work; am IN DANGER ALL THE TIME; I worked the safest wi: 7 as I thought; I considered there was danger the time; the manner of taking down the wall was leftto my judgment; | had no directions trom Mr. Snook in regard to that; scafolding could not have veen built sa‘ely to take down the walls except in the way | was going to work—name'y, by putting in temporary beams and then erecting scaffolding on them; Ido not consider that I was responsible jor the talling of the wall; {had only to take it down and I went to work in the way my judgment led me; the car- penter bad nothing to do with tearing down the wall; 1 think tt is doubt. jul that the wall could have been braced from the roof of the church ; 1 considered tnat there was great danger while working inside the build- ing; 1t was about the worst job I ever haa to do; I knew the Department of Bulidings had pronounced the walls unsale: there was nothing done tnat I know 1 to secure the building except to put the Jew beams In, and to *shore-up” the foors; i saw some braces put in on the sixth story, but there Were none put to that part of the wall which fell; there was no way to get at it to brace it. Juror—Under whose direction was the work car Tied on to secure the walls? Mr. Titus—Mr. Snvok’s direction. Juror—Was the work for the securing of the walls completed before you took charge? Mr. Titus—The framers were at work after the 12th of Feoruary ; they had to watt ior the timbers. Juror—When was it in@ condition for you to begin your work? Mr. Titus—Wednesday, February 24; the next day the iramers were working for me in erecun, scaffo'ding; had the wall not fallen down that Night the work of taking down the walls would have begun next day; I was alraid that the walls would be weakened by the thaw- ing of sthe irost and ice which covered their tops; 1 intimated to Mr. Snook and Mr. Shaw that wanted beams put in before I took the walls down; I wanted them put in for my own convenience and salety; scat- 1olds could have been put up with uprights from the fourth story; it would have been almost IMPOSSIBLE AND DANGEROUS to have put a scaffolding up seventy-six feet along that wall; [certainly tola Mr. Snook that I con- sidered the walls dangerous; I made an estimate for Mr. Shaw immediately after the fire, about the 16th of January; my estimate included the cost of taking down the upper portions of tue walls; the Sunday iter the calamity I discovered a crack Teach ne along the line of the sixth story beams to thst portion of the wall which jell, and which, no doubt, ran along the length of the wall; had I seen that crack before 1 signed my agreement | would never have signed it; it was. no doubt, caused when the beams fell at the time of the fire; the enas of the beams acted as levers; this crack could not have been discovered from the outside unless the observer was in the church steeple; neither could it have been seen from the inside; I took every precaution to take the walls down with safety to myself and men; Mr. Snook told me that some masons had suggested that poles could be erected on which scaffolds could be built and the walls taken down in that way; 1 would not havo _ willingly slept by the side of the wall; if we bad had mild weather the walls would not have stood so long as they did stand; the wails not having been taken down by the firemen betore they icit the [aealowy on the morning of the fire, they should ave been secured with toggles and braces; aiter the firemen leit it the building fell into the hands of the Department of Buildings. JOHN B. SNOUK, ARCHITECT, RECALLED. He testified:—I consiuered the walls moment- arily unsale until I got to work at them; every moment I worked upon them I considered I was strengthening them. Juror—Have you had much experience in put- fing Up buildings that have been damaged by re Mr. Snook—I have had some experience, Juror—In cases within your experience were the walls pulled down or built upon ? Mr. Snook—Some parts of the walls were pulled down—those parts which were considered unsafe. Witness continued—Mr. ‘itus told Mr. Shaw he Was a little airaid of the east wall; Mr. Snaw sent e, and J went with him and Mr. Titus to the roof; | thought that Mr. ‘litus’ opinion was an in- terested one; I did not at the time think he meant what he said, and I do not think so now, juaging from his subsequent conduct; Mr. Titus told me that he had an idea that the west wall nad been pushed over by the east wall. Jaror—What was going to increase the chance of danger? Mr. Snook—I suppose the longer the walls stood the greater the danger of thetr falling; I think there was danger from the heavy wind; I considered I could go ahead and get through with the job as the Wwulls stood alter the fire; | discovered no large crack extending about eighty leet along the line of the beams of the sixth story before the signing of the contract; 1 saw the crack er the wail had fallen and J am of the opinion that tt was caused vy phe fall of the walls and not by the falling o: the eams. The inquest was adjourned until this morning at ten o'clock. WATERLOO COURSING MEETING. From the Pall Mall Gazette, Feb. 18.)

On Monday a/sternoon he was informed by a friend that the President had signed the bill, and that it was then, to all intents and purposes, alaw. Mr. Redgrave made inquiries tn several quarters as to the accuracy of the statement, and when convinced that it was literally true he ordered the hotel to be closed, Ib an interview yesterday morning with one of | the omciais of the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad te offered to dispose ot his hotel and thereior railroad tickets. The offer was respect- fully declined. Mr. Redgrave was called on in the afternoon by a reporter of the American.

A Model of a Petroleum Farm— Some Novel Suggestions. It is @ gratilying evidence of the lively interest which the coming national anniversary has cre- ated among all-classes that men who own precious and unique antiquities come readily forward and voluntarily offer the loan of ihese valuable relics of olden times to the Centennial managers. The barpsichord made in 1776 is to find a companion in @ violin still older and far more celebrated—the famous Cremona presented by Ole Bull to Pro- fessor J, Jay Watson, one of his most valued American friends, Professor Watson has most generously offered to exhibit the priceless instru- ment, which was given him in 1868 while spend- ing the summer at the home of the great virtuoso, in Norway. Itis an extremely rare specimen of the large pattern Cremonas, and 1s, the Professor says, in @ perfect state of preservation, although made as long ago a5 1616. Ole Bull's letter accom- panying the gitt will appear of interest in this connection :— Vairstraxp, Norway, August 10, 1868. My Dean Frienp Watson—In banding you this An- yuius and Hieronymus Amati violin I promised you in the United States—which promise you so kindly ac- ned in anticipation—you will noe, T trust, be sui prised if] cnireat you 10 be careiul of the rare instru ment committed to your charge. You can safely trust your m 4 sentiments to is mediuin, and to the genius of the brothers Amati, whose embodied apatite Will console you in sorrow, teuiper you in joy, and brine plessed ideas and good tidings to all your friends an euirers, With the best wishes, 1 am your sincere riend, OLts 10WA’S BEPEBSENTATION will, if present indications are to be trusted, be extremely full. While New York has scarcely done anything in the way of preparation beyond the eforts of a few trade assuciations, the lowa Board of Centennial Managers has already adopted a comprehensive plan, which promises to work ex- cellently. This Boara has arrangea the several Droducts of its State in thirty-twoclasses. To each class has been assigned an expert, who is to act as 11s secretary, who is to see that the prod- ucts belonging to it are fully collected, to arrange them, and, finally, to supervise their shipment to Philadelphia. For instance, group thirty-two em- braces ‘all patents and uselul inventions of tne the State,” and Mr. Thomas C. Orwig, the group secretary, has published an address in which he calls upon every patentee to become an exhibitor, Whether of the invention itself or of a working model, or of plans and specifications to de bound in volumes. Again, group seven contains “all wood producing plants, with a section of all trees above six inches tn diameter and their botany.’’ IOWA TREES AND SHRUBS, Profeasor Bessey, oi the State Agricultural Col- lege, has charge of this group, and ne publishes a detailed list of fity-one trees and filty-three shrubs known to be natives of Iowa, to which he invites additions of any plants that may have been omitved, and he also desires contributions of fine samples from all in a position to furnish vbem. Now this ts the way to insure the complete exhibition of the resources of a State. Nothing of the «ind has been done tn New York, and what are the natural resources of Iowa as compared to those of the Empire State of the Union? It has been said that Governor Tilden’s fatlure thus far to appoint a State board, agreeably to the invita. tion extended by the President to all the Gov- ernors, accounts for the backward condition of the preparations for the great Centennial anni- versary. ]t isto be hoped that the Governor will soon appoint such a board, composed of prominent high-toned mev who would bend their energies to the work intrusted to their care. Such a boara might greatly promote the interests of the State by securing an adequate representation of its weaith ana grandeur. AN HISTORICAL DERRICK isto be ex‘ibited emong the many Centennial curtosities which 18 intimately associated with an important clement of American commerce. The derrick allnded to was the trst used in boring jor petroleum in this country, so that our petro- Jeum princes will view it with no littie interest. When it is remembered that trom the experiment of which the derrick is a vivid memento came the rise of our great petroleum trade, and that petroleum ranks next to cotton in our exports, it will be seen at once that the machine tn question 1s one well worth preserving. it is nowin the possession of certain parties in the great ou region tn Pennsylvania, who have offered to ex- hibit it at the Philadelphia World’s Fair, The offer nas been accepted by the Director General of the Exposition, and the derrick will be displayed ata suitable place in the machinery department. An- other interesting bit of news to petroleum men is that the Galena Ot! Company intends to exhibit working model of an oil farm, which js to illus- trate the process of boring and all the stages of the manutacture. A MODEL OF THE SANDWICH ISLANDS. The list of articles to be exhibited vy the Sand. wich Islanas, which bas been received irom the Cen- tenntal Commission tor Hawati contains, among other things, ‘‘a model of the islands, made toa Scale, and showing the physical geography and topography of the same, the mountains, valieys, Toads, lorests, deserts, arable and grazing lands, villages, rivers, volcanos, hatbors and population of each island.” Apropos of this novel idea the suggestion nas been made to the Centennial Com- Mission to prepare a series of reliet maps of the entire territory of the United States at the time of each decennial census, “A single mould,” 1 is claimed, “will furnish any desired number of | Plaster caste, exhibiting the topographical fea- | tures of the country, and gradations of tint wil | show at a giance the increasing density of our pop. ulation during the lass century.” Thus a vivid idea of the growth of the population, the like of which the world has certainly never witnessed be- fore, could be obtained, At the same time tt has been proposed, and the Centenntal managers re- gard the suggestion with decided tavor. that THE GREAT CITIES OF THE UNION, New York, Philadelphia. Chicago, Cincinnati, St. Louis, New Urieaus, Boston, Baltimore and San Francisco shoaid send models (in plaster, cork or papter-maché, as the case may be) giving an accurate reproduction of the cities, their streets, houses, wharves, churches, &c., as they were hundred years ago and daring various periods of the century. Itis a wreat pity that this geston has been made at so jate an hour, when artists would scarcely have the time to exe- cute these dificult models properly. What an tn- teresting model would that be of New York in the i 1778, It might show the cows grazing on the jand now occupied oy our most sumptuons rest. agences. Or picture the model of Cnicago forty-five ie ago, displaying simply a few log huts and a ort in @ swamp; then Jater, “with her streets Sunken in the mud,” and still later, “with her raised streets and biocks of houses iifted bodily upward.” Almost every city in the Union nas some such marvellons history to tell, and modeis of this kind would give the foreign visitors a more vivid idea of these wonders of American growth than they could ever obtain from mere Treading. VIEWS OF BARON SCH WARZ-SENBORN. Baron schwarz-Senborn, Austrian Minister to this country and the Director of the Vienna Ex- hibition of 1873. is certainly competent to judge of the Centennial and of the valne of the work now being done by the managers. “I must confess,” he said recently, “that the United States are not known in Europe, for America has sented in the five universal Exhibitions held since 1851, Had it been well represented on these occ: sions the people of Europe would have ontained a | far better knowledge of the country, A great many people wi'l come here tn 1876 trom Europe and other parts ol the world. All these strangers will be enlightened; they will be cured of prejn- aice and become your very good trends and admirers heveafter.”” Speaking of the educational departments of all the nations at Vienna he said they were the most important part of t! Exhibition, they were appreciuted by all enlightened classes of | | men, by ali | Of the civilization and wellare of the people. those who were the well-wishers He thought such a section at Philadelphia would also be the most valuable and in its consequences the most beneficial feature. “1 think,” he declared | emphaticaily, “that every American citizen who lf may contribute in any way to the Exposition in Philadelpoia will thereby bestow @ great benent upon his fellow men. ‘The location for the Ex. posiuon in Fairmount Park,’ he said, “is charm- Ing and really better than that of either of the Ex- positions in London, Paria.or Vienna. He ¢. amined the grounds and everything else and jad come to the conclusion “that all that bas been done and prepared, ana all that is now being done, shows great skiil and abuity.” FOUND DEAD IN BED. Information was received the Coroner's oMce yesterday morning that Mrs. Mary Ann Grace, forty-two years of age and born tn Ireland, had been found dead in bed at her residence, No, 607 West Forty-fourth street, by her son William. OMcer Glass, of the Twenty-second precinct, who was called 10, discovered on deceased’s head and arms what he thought to be inarks of violence. Coroner Kexsier took charge of the case, and to determine the cause of death Deputy Coroner Cushman Will make an autopsy on the body, The busoana of deceased, who claims to be an indua- Irious MAN, savs his wile was very intemperate in her nabits, and, being drank on Wednesda: in bed all day.
