LAWRENCE, MASS, Jan. IL.
VIM. Barber testified that the foundation was
insufficient; stone good, but shallow, especial
" at the south end where the ground is quick
sand and spuDgy SOIL thought the walls too
thin for so large building.
VIM. Sullivan testified that he did the exc
eutlon for the foundation and considered it deep
enough and more solid than others.
John TuttIe testified that he was one Of the
firm that put up the brick work; said walls were
too weak and quality Of brick poor; water was
running in foundation Of walls for two months.
Such things he considered dangerous and might
undermine the walls. Witness explained that
when the upper floor timbers were put in on
projections thrown ont of the inner wal the
whole wall was solid. Adjourned till to NOR
row.
/ The Boston Herald's correspondent, to night
| from Lawrence, says that one dead body was
taken from the ruins, apparently about 25 yrs
old, but so shockingly mutilaied that even the
eyes of the nearest relative could not possibly
recognize any familiar ineaments. Her face
was charred and burned to the depth Of about
half an inch and the back part of her head and
all the way behind her ears were also burned
| to the bone; otherwise the flames did not seem
to reach her. Her head alone was exposed to
the flames, and she had burned her hands in
striving to protect it.
Nothing remains standing at the scene of the
disaster except two immense chimneys through
which ran the shafting which carried on the
works in the various rooms The wood and
timber work has pretty much all been rem we'd
from the spot, and nothing now remains but a
crushed and mingled mass of bricks, mortar and
broken machinery.
The Pemberton corporation has the ruins in
charge, and employed about fifty men in clear
ing away the rubbish their progress, hOwev-
er, owing to the storm and difficulties of the
! Job, was but slight. The volunteers who had
/ worked there with almost superhuman efforts
| for "a hours, were worn out with fatigue, and
it was impossible this forenoon to hire lsborerS
10 prosecute the task Of eXhuming those who
| vet lie buried in the rubbish. The smoke is
still ascending from the black heaps, and q
stream from the fire engine from Manchester
was kept on the heated mass.
Besides the sums Of money already mention
ed as having been forwarded, the Mayor of thia
place has received number of donations from
various parties, many Of whom did not send
their names. Among the presents is box con
tanning $50 linen sheets, gift from the Ownerl
of the steamer Memenlon Eanforde. A kind
lady of Charlestown also forwarded large lot
of carefully prepared bandages.

The Juarez Government has directed Pesquira
