FORD'S THEATRE CATASTROPHE
Inpest On toe Victims Bcpn Tester
flay in Wastainton.
COLONEL AINSWORTH DENOUNCED
Witnesses anil Clerks Much Excited, and
Indulge In Threatening Language- Sen
tlonal Evidence rrainised.
Associated Press.
Washington, . June 12. The Inquest
over the bodies of the victims of the
Ford's theatre accident began here to
day. Colonel AInsworth, chief of the
record and pension division, was pres
ent. The first witness was Benjamin
ReJss, who testified that, he had not
seen the area roped off as dangerous
inside the building. For several years
he had heard rumors that the old
building, particularly the rear part,
which did not fall, was unsafe. Charles
Troutman, a clerk, testified that he
had been warned by J. W. Webb,v In
charge of the first floor, not to approach
the area of the floor roped off while
the excavation was going on. No other
warning of 'insecurity of the building
was given. Smith Thompson, a clerk;
testified that the messengers of Colonel
AInsworth, stationed on .the stairway,
had frequently notified the clerks with
bated breath, that It was the colonel's
orders that employes should walk on
their tip-toes up and down the stair
way. The witness was an engineer
and examined- the building. There
were no props where the excavation
was going on. - He declared the feel
ing of the clerks toward Colonel AIns
worth one of abject fear.
This afternoon there was an ex
citing scene. Charles Barnes, " a
brother of one of the men killed, walk
ed forward, shook his fist in Colonel
Alnsworth's face, shouting, "You mur
dered my brother, and you shan't sit
here Intimidating these witnesses."
Colonel AInsworth Btarted to speak,
when the excited clerka began shout
ing for him to "sit down," "shut up,"
and the like, followed by cries of
"Hang him!" "Hang him!" and the
men sprang forward as if to execute
the mandate. They were finally quiet
ed, however, and the Inquest was ad'
journed.
A letter from Secretary Lam on t was
read at the inquest giving the assur
ance that no clerk need fear dismissal
on account of his testimony. "
A number of the clerks testified that
they felt the building Insecure, but
they were afraid to protest against
working in it for fear of losing their
positions. Before. a witness was al
lowed to proceed, B. H. Warner, one
of the Jurors, suggested to the coroner
that the episode showed the existence
of a , feeling that would best be si
lenced by the withdrawal of the party
against whom It was directed. Loud
applause followed Warner's remarks,
and Dr. Shaffer whispered a request to
Colonel AInsworth tow Ithdraw. He
refused to do so, however, and the cor
oner said he had no right to exclude
him. Juror Hanvey said he had been
told by a dozen clerks that they were
afraid to testify, and would have re
fused to do so but for the letter of
the secretary of war, stating that no
clerk need fear dismissal for his testimony.-
Ross Perry, the representa
tive of Colonel AInsworth, arose and
his first word was the signal for the
most exciting Incident of the day. But
ler Fitch, an old, white haired clerk,
started the trouble, "sit down," he
shouted, "you are an outsider and have
no right here. I protest against out
siders speaking here."
"Sit down, sit down," echoed his fel
low clerks. ..,
Fitch cried out something about
"murder," , and the words were ech
oed from every part of the hall. The
clerks were on their feet trying to
make speeches, as though a public
meeting was being held.
Morgan Spencer of Bridgeport. Ala.,
and a government clerk, called out to
Colonel AInsworth: "You should be
arrested for murder and not released
on ball." Here the tempest broke In
full furry.
"Hang him," was shouted from , a
dozen throats. Every man In the spec
tator's seats arose at the cry of "hang
him, hang him" and the turmoil grew
louder.
Colonel AInsworth sat cool and col
lected. Somebody said after the up
roar was over, that hla hand moved
to his Inside eoat pocket and remained
there. His features seemed absolutely
Immovable. Perry remained standing,
but made no attempt to quell the mob.
Lieutenant Smiss was utterly power
less to still the tumult. A mad rush
had Just begun In the direction of Col
onel AInsworth, when Warner rose and
begged for order. The sight of him
standing stopped the rush.
"This outbreak of feeling must be
suppressed," he said, "not by the
ptrong hand of the law, but by the;
hand of fraternity." Tie crowd fell in
to Warner's way of thinking, and cried:
"Yea, yes." He saw his advantage and
made an appeal to let the question of
allowing Colonel Alnsworth's remain
ing be settled by cool heads. When he
took his seat, however, there were
mora threatening murmurlngs, and Dr.
Shaffer quickly adjourned the Inquest
until 10 o'clock tomorrow morning, at
the First precinct police station.
Department clerks stood about the hall
talking excitedly 'over the ' Incident.
Colonel AInsworth sat In his chair for
a minute and then, walked out of the
building, entered a carriage and quick
ly drove away amid angry expressions
from the crowd. When the hall was
emptied, In exolted language the clerks
continued, and finally Old Butler Fitch
mounted the entrance steps and pro
posed itn Indignation meeting, Immedi
ately; ), Smith Thompson was elected
chairman of the meeting, and de
nounclatlon of Colonel AInsworth and
those who Justified his course were In
dulged In. A committee was appointed
to wait upon the president against the
proposed Becret investigation at the
police station, and urged the suspen
sion of Colonel AInsworth pending the
Investigation.
Subsequently it was said the inquest
would be resumed tomorrow In the
same hall, but under better police ar
rangements. Judge Jery Wilson, vol
unteered his services to represent the
clerks, at the inquest tomorrow.
