Frantic Victims of Theatre Holocaust
Were Barred--Coroner Begins the-
Investigation.
Before a dense crowd packing the
council chamber in the Chicago city
hall, Thursday, Coroner Traeger and a
jury of six men began the official in
vestigation of the Iroquois theatre
fire. The first witnesses ware persons
who were in the audience at the mati
nee. They told of the panic and of
finding the exits locked.
Outside in the ante room a host of
witnesses waited to be heard. Fright
ened victims, who escaped with their
lives from the fiery furnace, actors,
chorus girls, stage hands, policemen
and firemen mingled there, making a
strange gathering.
Within the council chamber the in
quisition proceeded along judicial
lines. Lawyers were present on be
half of numerous Interests, seeking
opportunity to examine witnesses
along lines of special interest to their
clients. Under Coroner Traeger’s rul
ing, such questions were barred and
the examination continued strictly
along the lines laid down by that offi
cer.
A dozen witnesses were heard dur
ing the day’s session. The chief wit
nesses were Eddy Foy, the comedian
of the “Mr. Bluebeard” company, and
George W. Stetson, a representative
of the company which manufactured
the asbestos curtain. Mr. Stetson ad
mitted that asbestos curtains, if sub
jected to an extremely high heat,
would lose their “life” and crumble.
The first witness before the coro
ner’s- jury was John C. Galvin, a
painting contractor. He rushed to
the lobby and endeavored to open
the west door, that being nearest. It
was locked.on the inside and he could
not do anything with It. He tried to
open two other doors, but could not,
and kicked out the panels.
Mrs. Elvira D. Pinedo proved one of
the most important witnesses. She
said:
‘‘l was standing near , one of the
boxes ort the extreme right of the
main door and in the rear of .the seats
people were standing four deep. I
first saw sparks on the Eolith side of
the stage back of the scene and could
see a man clapping his hands in an
effort to put out the sparks. The mo
ment I saw fire l quietly looked aboijfj
for an exit, and saw what I believed
to be one near the boxes.' The fire
spread rapidly and people .got up anil
urged everybody to be seated, as
there was no danger. I never saw a
saner audience in my life. Half of
the audience were women and they
calmly sat there and saw the sparks
change into flames without screaming
or getting panic-stricken. Suddenly a
big ball of fire dropped from the top
of the stage to the floor.. It was burn
ing scenery. I walked to the exit, near
the boxes. I tried to open the door,
but. found it locked. A man came up
ami we demanded that the usher open
the door. He either said he would not
or could not. Then suddenly there
was a powerful draft, which opened
the doors and blew us out into the
alley."
