to Falmouth.
The agent OF Lloyds at Falmouth reports
that the two forward compartments OF the
Paris are full OF water.
Capt. Scott OF the ship Kinross. which was
sailing from the westward OF Falmouth at
about the tme OF the accident. says that
he heard the Mauaces bell buoy dis
tincty and could sec the Stanthornys
light for five or six miles. The lights
wore so clear that Capt Scott made tho mouth
Of Falmouth harbor easily. entering at 1:30
A. NJ He could see the coast line nearly every
whore from the Lizard TO Falmouth
The Captain OF the tug Dragon. which took
the Paris's passengers to Falmouth. confirms
Capt Scott's statement. as does also the Cap
tain OF pilotboat who saw the Paris was on
wrong course and burned blue flare to warn
her He says the liner must have steamed
parallel with the shore for some distance.
1t is suggested that the error in navigation
was due to tho unaceustomed call at Cher
hourg and that the officers made mistake In
their calculations.
Tho question is also raised. were the sailing
directions obeyed. namely. in thick weather to
come no nearer the Lizard than depth OF
forty-fve fathoms? This precautlon keeps ves-
sells at least six miles distant.
There is a disposition to believe that the ac-
cident was due to causes similar to those that
led to the loss Of the Mohegan.
StorIns told hv the nossenpers q, the Paris
show that the sea was rough from tho Needles
to Cherbourg. After leaving the latter port at
q o'clock Saturday night the sea went down.
and the Paris was headed for the Lizard. The
weather was then misty and a drizzllng rain
was falling. but there was no fog. Some time
after midnight the engines we're slowed to half
speed.
