The General Slocum Inquest.
Some startling evidence Of made
quate fire protection, of worthless life
preservers and Of worthless inspection
by federal officials has been brought to
light since the investigation into the
burning of the General Slocum in New
York harbor was begun before the
coroner's jury last week. President
Barnaby Of the company which owned
the Slocum at first maintained that
life preservers had been bought for
the Slocum in the last three years, but
when bills were submitted in evidence
it was found that they had been made
out to the Grand Republic, which name
had been erased. 1t was found that
the bookkeeper had made this erasure,
but no satisfactory explanation was
given. Counsel for the company ad-
mitted later that no life preservers had
been bought for the SlOcum since 1895,

show that most Of them had not been
renewed since 1891, when the Slocum
WAS built. 1t was shown that there
