BY TELEGRAPH.


LAWRENCE, Mass. Feb. 3-The Jury Of inquest OF
the Pemberton Mi calamty, rendered their verdict
last evening. It is quite lengthy embracing care
full review of the testimony. The jury find that
from all the evidences adduced before them they do
not believe that the owners of said mill at the time
of demolition ever had reason to dstrust its sacu7-
ty The jury further find that the fire originating
after the fan Of said mill, caused By the acci-
dental breaking of a lantern in the hands Of some
person to them unknown, and at the same time ac-
tually engaged in aiding, assisting, and reseuing
sufferers then alive, and beneath the flooring Of the
mill.
Upon all Of which several finding the jury de-
termine and say the direct cause OF fall Of this mill
was the weakness and insufieiency Of the cast iron
shoring that the thinuess of the brick walls, and
the manner Of construction and length of span,
from one support to another beneath the floor tim
beIs, were additional causes and aided in the gener
al demolition Of the building; that so far actual
defects N the cast iron pillars existed the response
biity rests upon "A. Fuller, the former contracting
agent and foreman Of the Eagle Iron FOundery
then at West Boston
That upon C. L. Bigelow, being the architect as
well as the superintendent Of this structure rest
all the responsibility arising from an insufficient
test of said pillars, and from any direct weak
ness from insecurity apparent in or about the gene
raj construction Of said buildings; that the walls
were laid under his supervision; that the tinbers
and flooring were in every respect constructed and
located as he originally desgned that the inner sup
ports of cast iron previous to erection had his APP
rpOval and were by him adopted as in al parts safe
and secure that such inspection he required was
given to the iron pillars and chat any want Of skill
in designing, any error of Judgment in approving
or adopting, and any want Of due care and caution
III properly testing the different parts of the
structure on his part appearing, to that extent
rendered him responsible for the direful catastro-
Pie involving the death of those twenty-five human
beings.
Signed by the coroner, VIM. B. Lamb, and by the
Jury.
The inquest was held in view Of the twenty 1.-TWO
