SANK TO BOTTOM
WITHIN 15 MINUTES
Empress Was Lying to in
the Upper Reaches of St.
Lawrence River Waiting
for Fog to Lift When She

by the Danish Collier
Storsad.
BY ASSOCIATED PRESS.
Tliinouskl, Qubec, May 29. More
than nine hundred passengers and
crew of the Canadian Pacific liner
Kmpress.of Ireland went down when
that vessel sank In the upper reaches
of the St. Lawrence river in ninety
ifeet of water this morning-, fifteen
minutes after having1 been rammed
amidships by the- Danish collier Stor
pad. Of the 1,367 persona on board,
only 433 are known saved, making- a
probably death list of 931.
The Empress was lying to awaiting
a heavy fog to lift when the Storsad
crashed head-on, ripping- the side open
to the stern. The Storsad, which was
badly damaged, rescued many while
the Empress pent out wireless distress
calls. The government mail boat Lady
Evelyn and pilot boat Eureka, a few
miles away, went to her aid.
Though the liner was going to sea
from Quebec to Liverpool, the collision
Un the river was within sight of land
but when the rescuing boats arrived,
the vessel was at the bottom and the
few persons saved were clinging to
the floating wreckage. Few life boats
nnd rafts were launched. The remain"
ing passenger and crew were either
Tufhed. to death by the Impact or
for fed to relinquish their hold on the
wreckage by ice chilled water. Twenty-two
of the rescued died from in
jury and exposure afterwards. The
women were all rescued.
Of those saved, crew members and
third-class passengers predominated.
From the partial lists available It was
evident but a mere sprinkling of the
first cabin passengers were saved.
Only three namss of those in the Cab
ins appeared in the preliminary lists
of rescued. They were G. W. G. Hen
derson and c R. Burt, address un
stated, and Walter Fenton of Man
chester, Eng.
WAS CUT WIDE OPEN.
The vessel, outbound from Quebec
for Liverpool with 77 first, 206 second
and 604 third-class passengers, was
cut wide ope-n by the collier Storstad
and sank within twenty minutes in
nineteen fathoms of water. Of those
ftavied the majority appeared to be
members of the crew or from the
and 22 died after being picked up.
The crash occurred about 2 o'clock
this morning off Father Point, Quebec,
a village brought Into prominence
when Dr. Crippen the London mur
derer, was caught. The collier, bound
for Quebec, struck the Empress of Ire
land on the port side about the middle
of the ship. She literally tore her way
back almost to the liner's screws,
leaving a rent through which tho
water poured in such a deluge that she
sank before many of the passengers
were aware of what had happened. .
Brief wireless calls for help sent out
Ty the Marconi operator were heard
by the Pilot boat Eureka here, ten
miles from the scene and the Eureka,
followed by the Lady Evelyn, a mail
tender, put on forced steam and made
all speed for the spot.
It was these two boats that found
afloat the few life boats that were
launched from the stricken ship and
picked up the survivors they con
tained. Three hundred and thirty-nine
were saved by the Lady Evelyn and
sixty by the Eureka. Among those
saved was Captain II. G. Kendal!, of
the Empress.
Most of the first-class passengers
1 apparently perished. Among those in
the first cabin were Sir Henry Seton
Karri" a noted English lawyer and big
game hunter, and Laurence Irving, son
of the late Sir Henry Irving and his

Churchmen Refused to Lift Ban
Against Games and Sports on Sunday
BY ASSOCIATED PRESS.
Chicago, May 29. A plea that the
lan against uncommercialized games
.nd sports on Sunday be lifted fell on
deaf ears today when the general as-
Xiembly of the Presbyterian church
(Northern) adopted the report of the
committee on Sabbath observance
whicli disapproved of ail secular uses
of Sundav.
Rev. Thomas W. Smith of New
York, and Rev. Henry L.. Brown, of
Chicago, pleaded thaf working men be
given an opportunity for recreation
on Sunday and vainly sought to
amend the restriction against "all
sports and games" substituting "com
mercialized" for the word "all."
The report which also disapproved
of all unnecessary travel and Sunday
excursions was adopted after a spir
ited debate.

BY ASSOCIATED PRESS.
Durango, Mex., May 23. The cap
ture of Zacatecas City by the Consti
tutionalists is a matter of but a few
hours, according to announcement to
day from General Carranza's head
quarters. The Constitutionalist commander-in-chief

The town of Zacatecas, situated in
the heart of the republic, is garrison
ed by three thousand troops under
General Medina Barron. Federal de
serters have brought news that the
garrison is demoralized. A general
movement of Constitutionalist troops
toward the state of 'Ja cat ecus already
has taken place and several towns
have been capture, the most important
of which is Fresr.illo. General t'ar

DELEGATES HE
111 CONFERENCE
Wfeson and c3-5311 At a meeting this j the close of tha program .the suporin
afternoon, directed the American del-i tendent of ' echoola and the board of
egatee at Niagara I-'alls to use their
influence to have Juan ITrquidl, a
Carranza rer-resentative, received by
the peace conference. The order came
after the president had notified the
cabinet that Uriquidi carried a mes
sage from Carranza to the mediators.
Advices late today were that the
mediators would receive Carranza's
communication. This caused govern
ment officials to express tha opinion
that the action wouli mean the ul
timate Constitutionalists participation
in the conference. What status the
Constitutionalists would be received
on the administration leaders wore si
lent. CABINET HOLDS MEETING.
Plans for Mexico's pacification,
practically agreed upon at the Nia
gara conference, wore up for discus
sion today In the cabinet. With as
surances that the international phase
of the equation promised a satisfac
tory solution interest grew today in
the attitude that Carranza mi:-:ht take.
It was reported lie had sent his rep
resentative here an announcement of
his position toward the work of the
Niagara conference. The Constitu
tionalist agents however declined to
discuss it. Further information on
the landing of war cargoes at Puerto
Mexico by the llambursr-American
.steamers Havana and Ypirant;.". was
being expected from Hear Admiral
Ha deer.
Deii'nt over whether the steamers
had actually delivered ammunition for
Huerta was cast by a. statement from
the navy department t hat reports to
that effect had no betrn. verified. The
attair appeared to ra ise uttie unea?;- i
ties and in some quarters it was in- j
dicatird that the i-.ciJent mere or less!
was to be regarded u-s closed, despite j

CARRANZA ENTERS A
COMPLAINT IN MATTER
Durango. Mex, May l'9 General

his representative at Washington
complaining of what he inferred was
the failure of the A B C med'ators to
require him to appoint delegates to

He expressed doubt that the negotia
tions would be successful without
representation of the Constitutional
ist faction.
The Carranza proclamation was di
rected to Rafael Sudan Capmar.y his
minister of the interior but evidently
was directed at the mediators. The full
text of an unofficial translation as
received here follows:
