FIRST TO LEAVE SHIP
SERIOUS CHARGE MADE AGAINST
CAPTAIN AND CREW OF
WRECKED VESSEL

Providence, r. l., Feb. 14.-A new
element was injected into the horror
attending the loss Of the steamer
Larchmont in Block Island sound
Monday night through collision with
the schooner Harry Knowlton when
Captain McVey of the steamer admit
ted that his lifeboat was one Of the
first, if not the first, to leave the sink
ing ship. This statement was made
in reply to charges by Fred Hiergsell,
an eighteen-year-old lad of Brooklyn,
one of the survivors, that the passen.
gers were left to shift for themselves;
that the ships crew crowded the boats
without attempting to provide for the
passengers and that Captain McVey
was the first to desert the ship. The
statement of young Hiergsell created :
sensation. in view of the fact that ten
of the nineteen survivors were en-
ployes on the ship, or. in other words,
that while approximately 20 per cent
of the vessels crew was saved only
8 per cent of the passengers survived.
Captain McYey. explained. that while
his boat may have been the first in
the water it was because he had a
good; crew and that he, remained by
his ship until she went down. He said
that he, made, no move to get into his
boat unti1 he had given orders to his
men to lower all boats and clear away
the RATS.

skilled 'laborers coming from Japan

in the schools of San Francisco. The
agreement means that the schools Of

segregation of the Jananese except
that adult Japanese who are In pri-

the Oriental schools and that Japanese
children under sixteen years OF age

children of their own ages. While
the resolution of the school board as
amended reads children Of alien
BIRTH" it is freely admitted by Mayor
Schmitz and his associates that the
resolution will apply only to the Japa-

the wording was to make it plain to
