NO One IS BLAMABLE
The COroner'S Verdict on the Death OF
Thomas Brennan.
AN UNAVOIDABLE ACCIDENT
Fellow Workmen of the Unfortu-
nate Fireman Give the True
Version Of the Sad Affair
How Ii All Happened.

The inquest over the body Of Thomas
Brennan, the fireman killed at the upper
works Thursday morning, resulted in a
verdict by the jury that deceased came to
his death by an unavoidable accident,
for which no one was responsible.
Coroner Hardenbrook conducted the in
quiry and the testimony was to the effect
as published yesterday morning.
w. A. Nolan testified: II discovered
smoke issuing from the tunnel yesterday
morning about $50 o'clock. Mr.. Smith.
the head Waterman. called out Fireman
Brennan and they went into the tunnel
together. After investigation they thought
best to run In a line of hose and they re-
turned to the fire with Brennan holding
the nozzle. They gave orders to turn on
the water and IL was done; for about FIVE
minutes the stream was played on the
burning timbers. The water was then shut
off and they went forward to examine the
burned portion of the tunnel. After doing
so they ordered the water turned on
again and they used 1t but a short time
when the crash came. Just before the
crash came I was standing at the end of
the fiume and 1t seemed to me that felt
the bottom of the fiume move. After that
the tunnel filled with ashes and steam.
/ could see nothing more until Brennan
ran to the mouth of the tunnel and threw
himself down. Smith followed close after
him."
John Russell told of the occurrence in
the same manner in every particular
Superintendent ]. s. Dougherty de-
scribed the location of the accident. 1t is
a tunnel in front of No. 1 building at the
upper works. 1t was built a number of
years ago to carry the Stag from the fur
naces in No. building. but is now used
TO carry a stream of water. as the fur
naces are not working. The tunnel, when
built. made Of 10x10 nd
and sheeted with 3-inch plank. There was
clear air passage through it and it was
considered safe, though practically aban-
doned and not used for some time.

NEW YORK, March 12.-After con-
siderable work in and around New
York by government officers, the first
public move in what will tend to break
up an alleged big scheme to smuggle
Chinese into this country. was made
when Thomas Burns was arrested and
locked up in the Essex county jail on a
charge of perjury. He is accused of
swearing falsely to a passport which
enab led a Chinaman, whose name is
for the present withheld by the author
titles, to cross the Canadian border into
Vermont, on the alleged grounds that
the Chinaman was engaged in business
in Newark. Burns was arraigned be-
fore United States Commissioner
Whitehead, and after pleading not
guilty was sent to Jail in default of
$500 bail, pending a hearing
According to the statements made
last night it is the belief of the govern
ment officials that a gang of Chinese
with shrewd allies is doing an extern
sive business in bogus passports.
Their headquarters is in Newark On
information furnished some time ago
by a Chinese merchant of Newark a
letter was recently sent to Secretary
Carlisle setting forth allegations that
aid was given in Newark for a Chinese
smuggling scheme. A special agent of
the treasury department was sent to
Newark and Chief w. ]. Clemishire,
government official located in Philadel-
phia, was also put to work on the case.
1t is claimed that the officers learned
that Burns and another man had made
affidaVitS before a notary public of
Newark to the effect that a certain
Chinaman was in business in Newark,
when such was not the case. The name
of Burns alleged accomplice is with
held by the authorities, as that of the
Chinaman in the case.
Since the arrival of the government
officers in Newark it is said the China
man in the case has sold out an inter
est in a business which he acquired
after reaching Newark, and that he
and the man who is said to have aided
Burns in signing the papers have dis
appeared.
