Before the vessel docked it was

When Miss Leidell was asked for
some statement as to the disaster she
said she could not talk about it. Capt.
Swanson, of the Pomona, also wept
as he spoke for a moment with a
group of newspaper men. He was in
no way connected with the catastro-

the situation. He had nothing to
