nals and did not attempt to render as
sistance. Captain Moore, wheu questioned to
nigbt regarding the statement made
before the Washington committee that
one of his passengers had MOB distress
signals, gave out the following state
ment :
"We received the wireless message
some time before 1l' o'clock on Bun
day night. At that time we were west
of the position given bv the Titanic I
operntor and immediately turned about.
W'c received -iiortly afterward a .see
ond message giving the Titanic t po1
tion as 50.14, whereas the first message
had given it as 60.20. In any event
we were at least fifty miles trom the
sinkitiL iteamer and between us was
thfl immense field of ice.

instrueted him to keep up a full head
Ol -team as it would be necessary for
us to make all possible haste to ihc as
sistance of the disabled reeaeL In the
meantime, I had our crew prepare the
lifeboats. Some of thorn were made
readl for launching, while others were
merely loosed o that they could be
made' ready on short notice Ropes
were dropped from the side and one of
my officers went aloft, remaining tner.;
tor some hour.
" Wc did not enter the ICS licld.
What was the use? Wc did not know
where to o and I had I-jOD passengers
aboard. If there had been any defi
nite information, or if we had knowu
the exact location of the Titanic, it
irould have been different, but i; the
dark and with her position in doubt
we might i.iJ-t as well not. have been
there at all.
Signals Unseen, He Says.
At no time during the night, nor in.
deed during the whole incident, did J
or any of my officers, so far as J
know." see any signals. If we had done
so I would have taken every risk,
even with my passengers, to render
whatever assistance was possible. To
ward morning are got io touch with the
Oarpatbia, but U was not until halt
past 8 o'clock that we were informed
by that vessel that the Titanic had
gone down and that there waa no use
m remaining longer about the scene of
the wreck.
"Previous to this I had endeavored
h changing the course of the Mount
Temple, to sail around the south of the
ice field and approach the scene of the
wreck from the eastward, a had been
done by the Carpatbia. That steamer,
when we sighted her first, was on the
east of the field while we were on the
WCKt ' '
The first officer of tho Mount 1 em
pie adds to this statement that, on
orders of the captain, ho went aloft
and remained in the lookout for up
wards of three hours during which
time he was noarly frozen. Rut he
states positively that in this time he
never saw any signal of any kind.
Crew Denounce Captain,
On the other hand, there arc mem
bcrs of the crew who, without hesita
tion, are outspoken in their condemna
tion of the failure of the Mount Tem
ple to reach the scene of the wreck.
As opposed to the statements given
above, sailors, firemen and- others de
clare that they sat on deck for hours
and watched the Titanic sending up
rockets and burning red and blue
lights until the Mount Temple
steamed so far away that these signals
wcro lost.
One of the nailers who says ho was
on watch Bundav night states that he
heard Third Officer Not ley tell the
l iitiiin of the distress message, but in
stead of the steamer's heading directly
to the wreck, she steamed away an
other course, oo that the lights were
BOOB lost.
An oiler named Pickard, who was on
duty at the time, declares that the
second engineer went below and asked
the men to keep her fired up to the
limit, as it was a case of life or death.
Another engineer adds that wheu his
watch was over be went oo deck and
with a lot of others, passengers and
crew, leaned over the rail and saw the
almost steady stream of rockets being
sent up by the Titanic. He adds that
in spite of the cold of the night ho re
mained on deck until almost 8 o'clock
watching the signal lie declares that
all the time of the accident the Mount
Temple was onlv between five and ten
miles from the scene. The crew are
outspoken in their comments, but the
officers nre' reticent.
I he statements of the crew agree
with those of the captain insofar as
reports- of preparing the lifeboats, etc,
are concerned, but the men differ
from the officers on the essential point
regardine the distance of the Mount
temple from, the scene of the wreck
and r.lso as to whether the rocket sig
nals were actually seen. There is a
difference of forty or fifty miles ir
their computation of the distance.
Dr. QuiBtsman, who is reported tc
have mafic statements agreeing with
the stories fold by the Mount Temple '
crew, is not in St. .Tohn.

In reply Senator Smith dispatched thS
following:

Lowe Is Called.
Harold G. Lowe, fifth officer of the Ti
tanic, was the next witness.
"You were present at the test of the
Titanic in Belfast harbor?" aBked Sena
tor Smith.
"Yes, sir.
"What did vou do? '
"I looked to the lifeboats. With Mr.
Moody and Mr Boxhall r looked over the
lifeboats, examined them carefullv and
found everything in them, except that In
one a dipper was missing."
As to the collapsible boats. T.owe said
he could not remember precisely what arse
found. "We did tlnd Du re were plenty of
oars, with extra oars for each boat."
The witness said while It had been
planned to hold a lifeboat drill April 1. it
was postponed because there was a breeze.
In fact, the witness said. It was almost
"squally."
He said that, before the Titanic sailed
one drill of tho crew was held, tie could
not remember whether it was held at Bel
fast or in the harbor at Southampton, He
also hesitated when asked his station and
did not know whether any oiher officers
were at their stations on the starboard
side of the ship where his station was
located.
"I was a complete stranger in the ship."
lie said In extenuation. Later he remem
bered that the test was held at South
ampton. He was in charge of one of the
two hoats lowered there. The entire drill,
he said, consisted In rowing about the
harbor for a half hour
"'Now, Mr. Lowe,' the senator contin
ued, "no other drill took place after that
until the accident?"
"N'o drill took place after that."
"Was there no Are drill no alarm, a
drill requiring the presence of each man
at a given place?"
Not Quite- Sure.
"There always is fire drill when we
have hoat drill. There was a lire drill
previous to tho general drill at Southamp
ton.'' "Are you quite sure you had that fire
drill?"
"Ict me see." said Lowe.
"I don't want to bo telling a storv I
may be conflicting here with some others
of the ship " Lowe thought for a long
time and then said:
"We will annul that, because I am not
sure "
"Well," said the senator, "We will not
annul that and want your best answer."
"Well, I m here to help you all I can and
I don't remember."
"Then that is what you want us to un
derstand. You do not remember?"
"Yes."
Lowe said most of the officers of the Ti
tanic at the beginning were strangers to
each other
"Did you ever hear of Ice near New
Foundland
"N'o. sir "
"Did you ever hear of an iceberg?" In
quired Senator Smith In surprise.
"Yes, sir, off Cape Horn."
This one, Lowe, said was the onlv one .
he had eeen in his career until ho saw
several at dawn following the collision.
"Were they In the course of the Ti
tanic'" "Yes, sir. They must have been."
He said the big one was at least 100
feet high This was four or five miles
away and all within a radius of six miles.
The Secretary of the Treasury Franklin
MacVeagh arrived at the committee room
during Lowe's examination and sat at the
committee table near the chairman
throughout the morning session.
Lowe said when be cot out on deck
afttr tho accident he began working at
the lifeboats.
"I was working the boats under First
Officer Murdoch, be said.
"Boat No. 5 was the first one we
loaded."
"How many mn were helping vou on
th boat?"
"I should say about (en. two at snob
end, two In the boat and others at the
ropns."
"Who got Into that boat?"
"I don't know. Had not some one raid
so T would not have known that I or
dered Mr. Tsmay from the boat.
"A steward met me on the Carpal hla
He said to me. 'What did vou say to
Ismay that night on th deck?' I said
that I didn't know I hod said anvthlnc: to
Mr. Ismay. I said didn't know Mr.
I didn't know him. Well, 'he

I happened to talk to Ismav because be
appeared to be getting excited i. area
saying Sitdtedly, 'Lower away. low er

Chairman Smith asked Mr. Ismay about
the languaRe and Mr. Ismay suggested
that the objectionable language be writ
ten down to see if It w;ts appropriate.
This was done. After Chairman Smith had
read what Iiwn hod written, he said
"Then you said 'his to Mr lsm"-

but showing it to the witness,
"Why did you sny It?"
"Because lie in his anxiety to set the

declared the only confusion was by the
passengers Interfering with tbe lowerlnc

"With everything uuiet and orderly,

No Selections Made.
"There whs no such thing as selecting.
First, we took the women odd children,
then others as they came. Then? was a

"As you passed tbe women Into the

"None whatever."
"Was Mr. smhy there?"
"Tea. I didn't know It waa Mr Ismay

Senator Smith sought vainly, to learn
the number of women in lifeboat No ?,.
The witness ventured the hellcf that tbe
iio:ti contained about fortv persons.
"Why weren't there more?" asked the
Chall man.
w.. couldn't find anyone who wanted I
to go. They seemed not to care to get
Into the boats."
The witness sab) that everyone was free!
to wander wherever be pleased and there!
was no effort to restrain or direct the J
passengers,
"Did you see any women there?" asked
Senator Smith.
"Certainly I saw women, hut I didn't
have time to go and drag them away.
They didn't respond to our calls "
Picked Up Survivors.
"We rowed back and around the
Wreck," said the Witness, "nnd we
nicked 1 1 n four men who were slrucr-.
gllng In the water. Three of them sur
vi ed. but the fourth, a Mr. Hoyt of
New York, riled shortly afler we took
him out of tbe water I do BOt know
the names of the others."
"What time w ns this?'
"It was ,1ust breaking dawn and It was
I light enough for me to cet a ffood look
around."
The witness said be then sighted the
Carpatbia and set out for her because
his was the fastest boat. He w.is afraid.
, be .iid, that the Carpathia might miss
, them
"Yon said you waited before returning
I to Hie wreck until 'things quieted down.'
I said Senator Smith
"What did yon mean by 'quieted
down T "
"Until the cries censed."
I "The cries of tlie drowning?"
"Vcs, si,-. We did not clare go Into
' the Struggling maSS, It WOUld have
'sunk us. Wc remained on the edge of
the scene and would have taken ncry
; op.- aboard thai we could, but it would
Via e been suicide to have gone in "
"How long did it: require for things to
! ifel quiet?" asked the s.-.nator 'I mean
I for the cries and screams of the drown
ing people?''
"About an hour and B half."
"If any person had asked you to lake
them In. you would'"
"Certainly. I was watching for every
body! anybody," said lxwe, "but to have
gone Into the drowning mass would have
been useless All would have been lost."
How manj persons wore In your boat
when you went alongside the Carpatbia?'"
Saved a Boatload,
"About forty-five. I took them off a
sinking collapsible boat. I left the bodies
of three men."
Twenty -one, Ixiwe said, were up to
their ankles in water, and would have
sunk In three minutes. He made no
effort to fix the identity Of the dead,
for he said ho w-as there not to save
bodies but to save life.
Then he sailed lor tho Carpatbia and
unloaded his hoat.
' What did you do then?" asked Sena
tor Smith.
'Nothing, sir," returned the witness
sharply, "What was there left to do?"
Sentor smith wanted to know about
the shooting on the Titanic while she
was sinking. 1iwe said ho bad fired
three shot? Into the water to scan- away
Immigrants on one of tbe decks, who. be
reared, were about to swamp a loaded
boat by jumping. He was certain the
shots struck no one l.owe then was !

Lightoller Recalled.
C. h Lightoller) second officer of the
Titanic, took the stand Immediately after
recess Senator Bourne inquired If the
watertight doors were arranged to pro
tect the vital pans of the ship. Tim
witness said he believed not-
lylghtoller said be could not testify to i
the value of searchlights in finding b e
bergs, though he thought, one "might

The While Stnr was tbe only line of
Which he know that kept six lookouts on
ea'-h ship.
Senator Burton asked the witness to
relate his conversations with Ismay on1
the Carpatbia. Lightoller said he and 1
his brother officers talked over the sall
Inc of tho Cedrlc and had agreed It
would have been a "jolly good Idea" If
they could catch the vessel It would
result in keeping them together and lei
everyone set home.
"Mr. Ismay. when the weather thick
ened, remarked to me," said Lightoller,
"that. It was hardly possible we could
catch the hoat. He asked me If I thought
It desirable that he send a wireless to
hold the Cedrlc. and I said 'Most cer
tainly.' The telegram was sent We
were all airreed that It was the best
course and we all advised it."
Lightoller said that when the telegram
from New York, saying the Cedrlc would
not be lietd. came he urged Mr. Ismay
to Insist upon the Cedrlc being held.

AMERICANS ARE IN
IMMINENT DANGER
(Continued from PaSe One.)
Mocking of nil avenues Of escape for
many.
It Is said that fully 7T per cent of the
people desire pence nnd that the bandits
are not opera tine In concert. Sorne
bands cry "Viva Zapata," some "Viva
OrOSOO," some "Viva Jtenterla." and the
hnnd that took Muzatlan recently cried
"Viva Mariero."
PfO special violence to Americans, as
such, was mentioned, but the advices
av there are not SBOUgb government
soldiers to protect foreigners or natives
in tbe stats ol SInaioa, there ars 200
federal soldiers and 8000 rebels. In So
nora there are BOO federals to fa. S 100
Taquta and numerous bandits, in i epic
i j . are BOO troops and three times as
many bandits.
No crops have been planted bj others
than foreigners and the rood supply in
siRht la iegs than one-tenth of ths nor
mal. Money is no scarce that a large
proportion of the 80 per cent of the popu
lation dependent upon dally watces are
practicallv without Income.
Many harrowing tales regarding at
tacks bv bandits and Indians have reached
Ouaymaa, Native women and children
have heen Insulted and attacked. Th'"
men who remained to guard their prop
erly thus far have escaped actual at
! tn.-k largely because i-.f their determined
i front. Those who are In a position to
jjudge the situation, however, fear that
this state of affairs will not Um after
the outlaw element fully realize its
