IN FACTORY “TRAP” WAS SUBSTITUTED | Witness at Diamond Candy Works Inquest Admits He Did Not Use Material Specitied. A graphic word ploture of the Dia- mond Factory fire, in which twelve girls and men lost their lives in North Sixth Street, Willlamaburg, on Nov. 6, Was given by the first witness at Coroner Wagner's inquest to-day, Fire Captain Edward J. Connolly of Engine Company No, 221, in Driggs Avenue, testified that at 1.44 P. M, on Saturday, Nov. 6, he got an alarm from the box on North Seventh Street and Hamilton Avenue, ono block from the Diamond factory. It was eight blocks from his house. He jumped out of the Chief's wagon when he saw the Diamond factory fire escapes crowded with many girls and told his driver to send in @ third alarm, “The whole first floor was afire, flames were issuing from a second floor window and smoke poured from every opening in the house,” the cap- tain said, “Citizens in the street were catching girls as they were jumping from the fire escapes. I ran up the balancing ladder at the foot of the fire escape and got a couple of girls down, “AM those above the second floor seemed paralyzed,” said the Captain. “They just stood there with their arms stretched out and stayed till the firemen got them down, or else they died. » Connoy said he saw Capt. the locked trapdoor on the fourth floor over the front or westerly stairway. “Then that caused the rush that crowded the fire-escapes?” asked the Coroner. “Yes,” said Capt. Connolly, “I tumbled over @ girl on our floor,” testified Jacob Ginsberg, “and I put her out on the fire escape. I saw a lot of girls lying on the fire escape. I crept over them and let myself down the under side of the ladder, hand under hand, to the porch and crept over again and let myself down, and when I got to the last balcony the flames were blowing over my head. [ dropped off the balcony.” Louis Shapiro, a carpenter, testified that he sometimes did fireproofing work for Mr, and Mrs. Diamond in their building. “What did you use? “Galvanized tin,” "Didn't the plasterboard th thick and backed with metal?” “Well, T didn't do it, Diamon he would pay me $80 for the Shapiro said there w at the third and fourt one he and Sam opened was fastened with a holt, Sam had to unserew a nut to loosen the bolt oo FROM FATHER TO SON.
