Kennedy, a young lad employed lu the adjoining shop. KJDNAPPKRS AT WORK.-Patrick Walsh and Thomas Smith were arrested and brought before Trial Justice John G. Mackey yesterday afteruoon, charged with kidnapping, or attempting to kid? nap, Edward Harold, Michael Sweeney and Pat? rick Courtenay. Upon investigation, it was shown that me three prosecutors had ariived iu New York fiom Ireland some two months ago, and not being able to get any employment, had gone to Savannah. Having been also unsuccess? ful there, they had walked all the way to this city, where they arrived on Monday last. On reaching here they Inquired for a boarding house, and were directed to one ia State street, kept by Pat? rick Walsh. They remained in this house Monday night, ' aud next morning asked their host to assist them in getting some work to do. Walsh observing that ' they were new in the country, told them that there was a wreck about three miles down the river from which he wanted the copper taken, and that he would pay them for the work $40 a month and theL- board. The three thought they had struck a mine, and, under Walsh's directions, proceeded to start at once. He then furnished them with two bed-ticks, one pound of tobacco, and two bofte3 of matches, saying that this would do for them until Saturday, wh.-.n they were to return home aud.jreF their wages. He alsogave them Strict orders to take good care of their bed-ticks and- bring them back on Saturday night. Thoma Smith now joined Walsh,-and told them that he was one of the bosses of the wreck, and had to leave it a few days ago on account of a bad cold, hat -that-lie would, take them to it. About ll o'clock on Tuesday morning they were taken to one or the wharves end told to get tato a small boat tied to a post. They did . so, and as the boat was being shoved off, Walsh again remluded them ta earnest , tones of their promise to rrturn the bed-ticks safo on Saturday, and "Smith,- jumping in along-'with ' them, they rowed out rrom the wharr. There were Richard Murphy, Hart, and another unknown man. In the boat besides Smith. T>ey were car? ried down the harbor and about three miles over ttie'bar, where, instead br a wreck, they were shown a line*staunch ship, the J. 0. Boynton, bound for Liverpool, and told to climb aboard. Having done so, they, for the first time*, realized the deception which had been practiced upon them, and explaining their situation to the cap? tain, they asked to be released and allowed to go ashore. The captain, arter'uslng every.lnduce ment to make them sall on his ship, permitted them to return to land, where they applied to United States Commissioner Porteus for redress, and were reforred by him to Trial Justice J. G. Mackey. Smith and Walsh were bound over In fte sum of $1500 each, to appear for trial on Wednesday next, when it ls hoped that they wiU receive a punishment worthy of their infamous undertaking. , TBK TAT AX, EXPZ 08TOff~ 'AT- THE ETIWAN PHOSPHATE WORKS. The Coroner's Inquest-?vidence ot the Eye-Witnesses to tile Explosion - What the Messrs. Gason Said Concern? ing the Construction and Strength of the Boiler-No Verdict ns Yrt. The Inquest over the body of Captain John M. Wilhams, which was deferred on account of | the want of witnesses, was held at io o'olock, yesterday morning, at the City Hall. A jury con? sisting o1' the following persons was impanelled: W. Wallace, foreman; G. F. Wilson, Henry J. O'Neill, L. R. Reed, Daniel O'NeilL^L. B. Michel, John F. Cleary, F. G. Cart, J. H. Simons, F. A. Bran-ford, Thomas R. Small and Denis O'Neill. All the Jurymen are whites, excepting Brallsford. Coroner Taft conducted the examination. The Hon, C. G. Mtmmlnger, president of the Etiwan Company, having been sworn, testified as follows: My first intimation of the explosion, was about 2 o'clock on Tuesday. I immediately went np to the works, and was informed that the explosion had taken place from the collapse of the two flues in the new boiler. Mr. Sbokes had been killed and Captain Williams, the engineer, fatally scalded. The no.1er was new and had been used for the first time on Friday last. I learned that a few minutes before the explosion Dr. Pratt was in the laboratory making an experiment on a small quantity of water drawn from the boiler. There was at the time plenty of water In the boiler, and about 70 pounds of steam on. The boiler ohght to have been able to carry loo pounds. All possible assistance was rendered the deceased. The superintendent. Mr. Chlsolm. contracted for the making or the boiler. It was J suit a 100 horse-power engine, and tobeper ect lu every respect. The construction was left Qtirely in the hands or Mr. Eason, and from his /ell-k?own repuiallon a first-class Job was ex? acted To the best or my knowledge no Inspec? tion of the boiler was made. Drs. W. W. Ruth and W. W. Memmlnger were then called, and testified that they were at the works when the explosion occurred, and both attended the deceased. That there were two bruises on his forehead, but that his death was caused by the nervous depression arising from his extensive scalds. Tha the died about 8 o'clock in the evening. Dr. Memmlnger also said that from the Imperfect analysis of the water drawn from the boiler, In which Dr. Pratt was engsged at the time or the explosion, lie judged lt to he hair salt. Renty Campbell, colored, was then called and testified that he was employed as fireman at thc Etiwan Works, and was on duty when the explo? sion occurred. That he was firing op on this par? ticular boiler at the time, and there were 35 ponnOs or steam and 3 Ruares ot water on. The envines were started at hair past ljfm'clock. The highest pressure or steam ever on the boiler was about 40 pounds, and the highest on that day 35 pounds. That this b Uer is connected with the sulphur boiler, but the latter always has np very little steam. That he was at the door and the Sues were at his side when the explosion occur? red, and he was struck In several places, but not seriously injured. That Shokes and deceased were standing racing the flues in the boiler room. That he tried the water a moment be? fore, at the request of the deceased, and found 3 gnages in the boiler. That he never let the water get lower than two guages, and that i guages covered the flues entirely. That he put aa the pump to fill the boiler at 12 o'clock, and lt was kept going until the boiler burst. That he sas been a fireman for five years, and beeu em? ployed at these works for one and a half years. That steam was first raised on this holier on Monday, and a little was keot up, as the boiler leaked badly. That Captain Pratt was in the old engine-room, facing the boiler, when the explo? sion took place, and Mr. Daly was around helping to thtow in coal. In reply to questions by the surgeon os to the amount of steam on the eugine, witness gave very conrused replies. He was then called np by the coroner, and the numbers 15 and 75 plainly printed on a piece or paper be? ing shown him, was asked to read them. After some hesitation, he called thc first U and the other V", Bcveral times before thejury. The testimony of John F. Mtscaliy was then takeo, developing no new facts. John Duncan, a boiler maker, testified {hat he had left the boiler-room about three minute?, when he heard the explosion and ran back. He met Dr. Pratt, badly scalded, coming out of thc door, and saw deceased in the office seriously in lured-that the bottom of the flues were eight laches from the lower edge of the boiler, and that two guages of water wonld cover the flues and be perfectly safe. If flues were not covered, lt night have caused the explosion. That he exam? ined the flues after the collapse and found no laws. That all the four ends had collapsed, and is a boiler maker he could not attribute the ex? plosion to any cause he knew of. That it ls not iostomary ro test boilers at the place they are nade, and this boiler would be safe with 75 rounds or steam or even moi e. That he knew de? based for eight or ten days, and saw him fre luently during the day or the explosion. He was lerfectly sober and attending to his business. As mginrcr lt was the duty or deceased to see that he proper quantity of water was kept up lu the ?oiler. Thomas Sheridan t stifled that he was geueral rorktnun at the Eiiwan Works, and was at vork on Tuesday when the explosion took place, rhat he was up stairs at tho time and .ran down LS soon as he heard the noise. That he saw the ?her man hurt, and came up to deceased In the ifflce where he was lying. That deceased said, 'Well, I am in a pretty bad fix now," being terri ?ly scalded That he had spoken to Campbell ?uout.the running of the eugine, who said that he nacl two guages of water on, and that deceased - was running salt water lu the boilers. That io saw Mr. Chlsolm, who complained aoout the imall amount of steam and went down to the ingineer about it. That deceased asked him a half nour before Hie explosion to see if the mills could ie stopped, a* th. steam on thc engine wa* not enough to drlvj tbe three mills they generally ned, ? That tue water was drawn from the well kjf'B .Byphon, ind the reason they could not get more steam was on account or the cold water. That he hail known deceased fora long time, and knew him to oe a thoroughly competent engineer. G. W. Meacher. sworu: Was employed by the superintendent as steam fitter, and upon looking nt the steam guage several times while tn boiler room, itavctaged between 50 ammo pounds. Was ?ure it was not 70. That he saw also the second zuage tried, and lhere was plenty of water lu the boiler. That he then went to the engine room to get some tonis, and at that m ment in* explosion < centred. Toot he knew deceased, and saw him that morning-perfectly sober amt at? tending to his duty. That the first. Hmo he saw him after the accident was lu the office. That the leakey engine was running from 12 o'clock to the time of 1 he explosion, and the water co tld not have gone down sufficiently io cause explo? sion. Tim* he thought the donkey engine was Irawing hot water. J. A. Daly testified: I am a laborer employed at the Etiwan Works. On thc morning of tuc explo sion I met the deceased, who wained to stop the lonkey engine, as lie had not steam enough on As this would stop my work, thc pumping of the acid In thc acid chamber, 1 objected; but a short time after it was stopped. I Chen went to the en ;ine mom, and found that they co.dd not get euough steam up on the new boiler, because of the batt tiring. They hail 45 pounds of steam up when I went to the Ore-room to tlx tho fire properly. At 12 o'clock the guage showed et) pounds or steam. Thc deceased then went to dinner, and put ou thc donkey pump, while I stayed to watch the fire. Dr. Pratt uow came in, and drew some water to analyze from the top guage ur the boiler. Ut er dinner thc steam got to 70 and then lo uli 75 pounds. There was now full two guages if water, and as I was leaving they blew off some. I had hardly left five minutes before the expulsion :00k place. I undera and the working of a noller iud en.-me thoroughly. Campbell was near me while I was attending io the Ure. James M. Ellson testified : The bol er for the Etiwan Works, which exploded on Tuesday last, was manufactured at thc works of our firm. 1 agreed to build an engine for the Superintendent, Mr. Chisolm. the duplicate or rhe one at the works. Ile afterwards asked me to increase the size or the boiler, and the contract was all oral until I wrote to him, describing the engine and size or the boilers. There were to be two or the same capacity, but larger than necessary for the engine, as they were to raise steam Tor other pur? poses besides. Thc boiler was not tested before leaving our establishment, but each piece, as it was finished, Was Inspected as to thewotkman ship. I examined these boilers and found the iron or the usual thickness and strength. I have been in the business a great number or years, und having seen the Hues and boilers since the col? lapse (after hearing the testimony us to water in boiler,) can give no explanation whatever for the explosion, lt is the first boiler, lu my experience, where the flues have collapsed In "his manner. The straluon the flue is principally nrcuncl the periphery. The two fines ure about four Inches rrom the" lower edge of thc clrcuinicrence 0.' the boner. They run through the length or the boiler without connecting, and arc entirely distinct. TWo guages or wau-?' will cover them enilivly, and even the first guage ls nbove the flues, .lt seems unreasonable, in my experience; that the flues could have collapsed with water enough in the boiler to cover them. I heard of un accident somewhat pimllar at the Charleston Mining Work?, ou the Ashley River, some two months ago. This boiler would carry 80 pounds of steam with safety, ami that, number was on the boiler. It could have carried more, but 1 am always cau? tious and put the unionnt less. Mr. Hums, who is a boiler-maker, had the constructing of ibis boiler towards the end of the work. This boiler was to drive the new ?iud old engine, the donkey engine, chamber works. Ac, and hence it was larger than the eugine I made with lt. If the water was one inch below the hot flues, any addition of cold water would cause an explo.-lon. It ls not uncommon In new boilers for a mass of foam to rise on the water, especially If salt water ls used, which would ?how on the guages as real water much higher than the waler in the boiler really ls. [Mr. Rason here said that bfl advanced this with all diffidence asa possible explanation, arter hearing thc positive testimony us to the abun? dance or water In the boiler.] No length or time can be assigned for this foaming In a new boiler. I did not know the deceased, and never saw him. Mr. Thomas' D. Eason. also or the firm of Jas. M. Eacon k Bro., testified: I was ndt pres--nt and know nothing or the explosion. 1 have not seen this boiler since tho explosion, but am famil? iar with its construction. I* examined ic as to quality and appearance when lt was finished, and to all appearance lt was as fine a one as was ever made. Ordinarily, it could carry easily-*a pounds or steam; and ? consider lt sate, with loo pounds, and no risk. I haye no. idea.'how the collapse occurred. Prom ' the testimony given of plenty water being in the boiler, I - think the-wit ness es may have been mistaken, and . saw the foam which rises in new boilers. I have seen a boiler, to all appearances, full, with water coming even from the safety valve, and in the next mo? ment sunk below the first guage, the foam having subsided. From his testimony, I don't think the negro Campbell a competent fireman to take charge of this boiler, as be could not even read the guage, ir the boller was foamuw, the flues would not have collapsed while lt was doing BO, bul on its subsiding, if the water had got half an inch below the heated flues, and cold water been pumped on. the possibility la there would have been an explosion. Henry A. Burns testified: I am employed by Eason A Brother as foreman of their boiler shop. I superintended the construction ol these boilers for the Etiwau Works. The boiler was 30. feet long and 54 Inches In diameter. It had Internal return flues 30 feet long. u,l4' Inches in diameter. These were 8-16 of an inch thick and 7-16 at the head. The boiler was not tested, and thia is not customary except on steamboats. I have no Idea what was the cause of the explosion. If there had been a flaw in one flue, lt 1B not probable that both would have exploded. I do not believe a fl i w was the cause. I handled al! the iron of the boilers myself, and considered them as worthy as any we ever turned out. The examination was here closed, and the Coro? ner informed the Jury that if they wanted any further evidence it would be produced. The by? standers being excluded, the jury commenced their deliberations. Several witnesses were re? called to be questioned, and, after a long session, the Jury adjourned until l o'clock to day, for the purpose or sending up a committee to examine the boiler. _' NEW REGISTER.-The Pavilion Hotel has opened the winter season with a handsome new register, m which the first entries were made yes? terday morning.

The first passenger train ran between Augusta and Macon-the termini of the road-yesterday, making the run between the two cities in six hours. Attached to this train was the sp?cial car-the Pennsylvania-belonging to Mr. Tyler, the vice-president ot the South Carolina Railroad. Hon. Join P. Ring, president or the Georgia Railroad, Mr. S. K. Johnson, su? perintendent or the same corporation, and Mr. Tyler made an exe ur.- ion over the road on this car to Macon. Several hundred bales are await? ing shipment lu the former city, and, though the season ls so rar advanced, the Indications are that the new road will do a heavy freight busi? ness during the coming winter. The road will Uso do a large passenger business, as lt ls by far the shortest route from Macou and the Southwest to Charleston and New York. Two passenger ?rains are run on this road, the schedule time being about nine hours. <& The Augusta Constitutionalist says that, on the return of thc excursion train from Macon, a num? ber or the stockholders or the road and leading citizens ol Macou will Join the party and proceed to Charleston, where the .complet ton or this Im? portant line or communication ls to be celebrated with becoming ceremonials.
