New Yobx, December 24.—The jury en gaged in the inquest upon the bodies burned at the Fifth Avenne Hotel went out at ten o’clock last night and returned at two this A. m. They found that the servants came to their death under the following circumstances: The rooms occupied open on the corridor which is closed at both ends, and the means of egress were by way of a narrow platform staircase, built entirely of wood, up which the fire was burning. Small skylights and windowk open into each room ; the windows were closed. The jury further find that the proprietors of the hotel gave orders to facilitate the escape of the inmates in order to preserve their lives, and further recommend that the Fire Commissioners be requested to immediately inspect every hotel in this city in orter to prevent g recurrence of a like calamity. The Times this morning contains a revelation of a startling scheme alleged to be arranged by the friends of Duryea, the man murdered by Simmons, on Monday of last week to avenge the victim’s death. It is stated that Simmons was removed from Park Hospital last night under extraordinary circumstances. A number of Duryea’s mends have banded themselves into a Vigilance Committee for tbe purpose of lynching Simmons. The police received information of the proceedings and immediately placed a strong force at Park Hospital. Simmons was removed to Bellevue Hospital for greater safety. Tbe police decline to give any particulars regarding the affair, though it is stated that they are fully satisfied that such a plot was arranged, and that the removal of Simmons last night was the means of their defeat During a conversation yesterday, Wm.
