but he collapsed when he finally reached the
Tombs and seemed to age greatly In a few
hours. His counsel expect TO obtain bail for
him by tomorrow.
Captain Van Schaick is the first person to be
convicted OF completely in the events which led
TO the loss OF a thousand lives. His employers,
the president and board Of directors Of the
Knickerbocker Steamboat Company, have not
been crlninaIly proceeded against. Harry Lund-
berg. the federal inspector Of huIIs and boil
ers, has been tried three times for manslaugh-
ter. but not convicted.
Down on the waterfront. where Captain Van
Schaick is well known, It is generally believed.
as It has been prophesied for months that he
is to be the scapegoat- His courage and pres
ence Of mind have never been questioned and
harbor men generally regard the beaching OF
the Slocum on North Brother Island the best
If not the only. course open TO the master Of the
boat
Captain Van Schaick was tried on three
counts, two of manslaughter and charging
him as master with having failed to train his
crew at weekly fire drills or 70 maintain the
life saving apparatus Of the Slocum at the pre-
scribed standard. 1t was on this last count
that the jury found him guilty. disagreeing on
the two manslaughter counts.
The jury retired at noon, and Judge Thomas
started for Brooklyn. Twenty-Five minutes
later the jury filed back to the box. It was
some time before the court could be assembled
again. Then the foreman announced the YER
dict Captain Van Schaick was called to the
bar. Judge Thomass evident intention to SEN
terce the prisoner forthwith caused surprise.
Then the Judge said
You are ordinary criminal I must make
example Of you. and in doing I hereby
sentence you 10 ten years imprisonment"
Captain Van Schaicl1s counsel. ex-Judge Dit
ttnhGefer made the customary motion for a new
trial, which denied. Bail. pending appeal.
was fixed then at $4,000. It is generally be
ueved that could Captain Van Schaick have
proved that he had any fire drill on the Socum
he would have been acquitted.
After Captain Van Schaick had been taken to
the TomhS he said:
Il the victim Of circumstances. I tried
10 do my duty I saw It. think my sentence
was pretty harsh for an old man, but have no
fault to find or criticism TO make"
Ex-Judge Dittenhoefer said later that he
thought the defence had a strong point on the
question whether the Slocum was a vessel navi-
eating the ocean bays and gulfs as defined by
the statutes, or simply a vessel navigating the
rivers. Ocean vessels, according to the statutes
must call all hands 10 quarters for life saving
drills, while only the permanent crews on river
craft are obliged by law to be so instructed
