HOW JONES WAS KILLED
Coroner's Jury Says Foreman
Was Negligent.
GAVE DANGEROUS ORDER
On the Stand He Declares That He Did
Not Instruct Jones to Take
Chancss-Jury Rsturns
Sensational Verdict

1--WE find that said William T. Jones
| came to his death by q blow from an
iron bar which was used by him in
starting pulley while the machinery
| was running at full speed, under the
instruction of his foreman, Mike Nor
ley, and we consider him, the said fore
u1ran, to be cidminally negligent in issu-
ing the said orders to the deceased,
William T. Jones'"
The above is the verdict that was rem
dered yesterday afternoon by the coro-
| ner's jury at the inquest held over the
body of William L. Jones, who died on
Sunday morning from a fracture of the
skull which he received while at work
at the lower works Saturday night.
The inquest was held by Coroner
Hardenbrook and the jurors sworn
were: Henry Redmond, William
Faunt, James White, Charles Roman,
W. c. Haynes and Ed Dorland.
The testimony of Mike Lee, who was
with Jones when the accident occurred,
was the most important given. He tes-
titled that he was a laborer a t the lower
works and that he resided at Carroll.
He then related to the jury how the
accident occurred. He said they had
just fixed the rolls when the belt rolled
off a set of rolls which We're too tight.
Morley, who is a foreman at the con-
centrators, called down to the witness
to put in an iron bar in order to start
the wheel. Lee told Morley he couldn't
find the bar and the latter came down
to show him where it was. Lee tried
to start the wheel, but couldn't do it,,
and Morley called to Jones to help the
witness. The machinery was then run
n a MI a q ha W
started the iron bar struck Lee in the
chest and hurled him several feet away.
The bar struck Jones in the back Of the
head and felled him. The witness said
he knew that it was dangerous to use
the bar and that was why he told Nor
ley he couldn't find it.
Joe Dee, a repairman, was the next
witness. He corroborated Lees evidence
in regard to the orders that had been
given by Morley to use the iron bar
The witness said he considered it dan
serous to use the bar.
Mike Morley, a foreman at the con-
contractors, testified that after having
fixed the rolls a belt had slipped off Of
one set and they were working to get
it on again when the accident occurred.
Morley said he had not told the men
to use the iron bar. Morley said he had
often used the iron bar and believed it
was perfectly safe If handled in the
right way. The witness said the ma
chinery was not running at full speed
at the, time of the accident.
d. S. Sullivan, shift boss at the con-
contractor said that he was there on
the night of the accident. but did not
see it, as he was upstairs repairing
shafts when it occurred. The witness
said that he had never seen the iron
bar used TO fix the belts on the wheels,
and that, SinShis opiniuR' men who used

A SUNDAY BLAZE.
The Household Effects of Frank Parks
Badly Scorched by Fire Sunday.


Mr.. and Mrs. Frank Parks, living on
the corner OF Rowley and Sixth streets,
barely escaped having their househ hold
goods and the house destroyed by fire
Sunday afternoon, and the blaze had q
peculiar origin. Mrs Parks was en-
gagged in getting dinner READY and was
pounding piece OF beefsteak on the
table that stood near the gasoline
stove and which was burning at the
time. She employed 8 hammer TO re-
duce the steak to state of tenderness
and the head flew off striking lamp
on the table. The lamp WAS broken and
the oil ran on to the gasoline stove.
In less time than it takes to tell it the
kitchen was ablaze, burning the wall
paper, curtains and some of the wood
work. The gasoline stove was gotten
out of the kitchen at once to prevent
an explosion. The flames shot into
the front room and burned up the lace
curtains and few other things. Some
of the goods were removed from the
house. A few buckets Of water ju-
dioiously applied succeeded in subdu-
ing the flames just as the fire depart
ment arrived but their services were
not required to any great extent. Mr..
and Mrs. Parks bad but recently
moved into the house and had fitted it
up costly and the loss will be an un-
fortunate one to them as they carry no
insurance.
