At the inquest over the remains Of
Anton Pearson, who was killed yes
terday afternoon in an elevator acct
dent at the Moline city hospital, the
contractor. Robert Ed. testified that
The two men who were victims of the
accident disobeyed orders. He stated
that they had been told not to step
on the elevator when there was load
on it. Pearson AMI Albert Anderson
had three slabs of stone each weighing
about 300 pounds. on the elevator, and
it was at the third floor. Pearson gave
a signal to the teamster below. and
the signal was misunderstood. and .,,e
horse was started The elevator was
locked. and this strain and the pull OF
the horse pulled the pulley from its
fastenings, and the whole platform fell
with the two men on it. The YER
dict of the coroner's jury did not ex-
onerate the contractor and other en-
ployes from blame, but was an open
verdict
Andersons injuries were found to re
less serious than was thought at iirst
and he will recover.

convened again Monday and a verdict
will probably be returned which will
