Latest Developments
In W reck of Titanic
NEW YORK. April 17. The lat
est developmnjit. in Titanic disaster:
Capo Sable early this morning re
ports having established wireless
communication with the steamer
Carpathia carrying survivors of the
wreck to New York.
Carpathia reported she had run 1
into raging storm. Transmission of
further messages was impossible ow
ing to se' erc weather.
Wireless picked up from Car
pathia "by Wanamakor station in
New York stated that Carpathia
was sMl! proceeding to New York,
and expected to arrive Thursday
night.
Navy department orders U. S.
scout cruiser Chester to meet Car
pathia, Scout cruiser Salem starts from
Nantucket shoals to meet Carpathia.
White Stai Line sends steamer
Mackay-Eennett to scene of disaster
to search for possible survivors.
Vincent Astor goes to Halifax to
charter tug to search for father's
body.
Wireless from Halifax states that
all attempts to communicate with
Carpathia have failed owing to
storm at sea.
This storm Is general along the
Atlantic seaboard. It will prob
ably delay the Carpathia s arrival.
It is interrupting telegraph commu
nication between New York and
Nova Scotia.
Transpires that captain of liner
Touraine warned Captain Smith of
the. Titanic of dangerous ice fields
on April 12, and that Captain
Smith replied, thanking him for in
formation. Latest estimates place loss of life
at 1512, and monetary loss at $25,
000,000. It is theory of captain of Ulton
inn that some of passengers were
picked up by fishing craft, numer
ous in vicinity.

coni operator are the nil officers

NEW YORK, April 1 That th final
roll of the rescued from Hie Titanic dis

the impression that grew h i n i ( into

night added little. Down the Atlantic
