BY LOCKED DOORS 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."
