Sault Ste Marie, Mich. Oct. 12.-Bound
down from the head OF the lakes on the
second trip she had made since being
launched at Lorain, o., on Aug. II last,
the fine steel freighter Cyprus, 440 feet
long and owned by the Lackawanna
Transportation company of Cleveland,
foundered last night in Lake Superior off
Deer park. taking down with her twenty
two members of the crew.
Mate Only One Saved.
Second Mate c. j. Pitt, washed ashore
dashed to a life raft, is the only person
left alive of the ships people and his con-
dition is so critical that since he was
found on the beach he has only been able
to gasp out the name of the sunken ship
and the fact that twenty-five lives were
lost. Pitt is suffering from the dreadful
exposure in the icy waters of Lake Su-
perior. in addition to the buffeting he re-
ceived from the breakers. Until he recov-
cred sufficiently TO talk the story of the
wreck and the exact cause of the stout

south of Grand Marais, on the shore of
Lake Superior. Several bodies from the
wreck have washed ashore and two are
known to be those OF the first mate and
watchman. The names of but five of the
drowned members of the crew are def
nitely known. They are as follows:

AFRAID OF THE
LEGISLATURES
General Counsel of Rock Island
Railroad Fav0rs National
Regulation.
PLANS OF THE PRESIDENT
FORECAST OF COMING MESSAGE
TO CONGRESS.

Chicago. Oct. 12.-At the banquet of the
| Chicago Association of Commerce, held
tonight at the Auditorium hotel Robert
Mather general counsel of the Rock ISL
and system, spoke IT length on 'TEe
Railroad T 'cblcm. He declared in the
outset that the railroad problem had be-
come the national problem. no. because
the railroad business had become for the
moment the subject of public criticism
and the object of popular assault, but
because the lie of the nation depcn::s
upon rs raiiroa1s and It's iutu;s hangs
upon tic correct solution of the problems
they present
The speaker declared that railroads had
not been able to reconstruct their fac;Ii-
ties with sufficient speed to meet the
eXigencieS of greatly increased traffic of
the country and when they attempted TO
do so they found in their greatest stress
that their securities could no longer be
sold and the money essential for the de-
sired improvements was not available.
Two Prime Causes.
The speaker declared that in his opin-
ion the securities of the railroads could
be sold if they made a stronger appeal
to the confidence of investors Il count
as first among the causes that have made
the securities of the railroads unstable"
he said, the miSdeeds OF the railroads
| themselves. l place second in the list
of causes for the want of confidence in
| railroad securities the uncertainty as to
| the kind and extent of governmental SUI
pervisiOn and regulation to which the rail-
roads are yet to be subjected.
| The regulation that threatens peril
| to the railroads and the commerce of the
country today is legislation of the states
| Such regulation can be neither logical
| consistent nor comprehensive.
THE day has passed for unyielding op-
position to all policies of federal control
of our carrier corporations. Nay. more
the day has dawned in which to welcome
| that control.
Hint to Roosevelt.
I'VE must assume that the president in
preaching the regulation of railroads has
in mind the practical regulation designated
! TO confer benefit in the broadcast sense;
I while the president may talk in general
/ terms of more or less terrifying sound to
the ,tumultuOus and applauding crowds
he meets or his journeys. we have a right
l to expect that precision and wisdom and
| conservatism will formulate his final rec
concentrations to congress. And if that
expectation is realized the railroads should
co operate with congress and the eXecu-
tive in an effort to terminate harmful
agitation by securing speedily a plan of
federal regulation that shall be safe and
effective and fiEai. If, on the other hand,
We are cheated of this hope / believe the
country should and willaturn to leader
ship that promises treatment of these vi
tai problems along sound and conservative
lines"

May Be Inaccurate.

The second group of names, however, is
taken from a list made up in October
and man contain some Inaccuracies. 1t is
positively known, however that Assistant
out Thorne and Oiler Ray were on the
Cyprus when she started from FairpOrt
on her last trip.
Marine men suggest as a possible expla-
nation of the laundering theories, that the
engines became disabled. that the plates
opened and the ship sprung a leak and
that the matches may not have been Sc

Story of the Mate.
Recovering consciousness after hours of

moments of the crew on board the Ill

The mate said the Cyprus was making

the evening. when the vessel was off Deer

working, and the crew felt sure the ves-
sci would not sink without warning.

over on her side and almost instantly
plunged to the bottom. When the vessel

Railroads

F the government believes it can manage our railroads better
LECTION to selling the properties. would sell to the gov
~ eminent as willingly as to an individual or company were the
lines to be disposed of, although ours are good properties and
are not on the market. This is how I feel AS A RAILROAD
MAN in regard to the public ownership of carriers.
But AS A PRIVATE CITIZEN 1 am opposed to the public
ownership suggestion. The government could not manage the proper
ties successfully. Private capital or enterprise is BETTER EQUIP
PED THAN THE GOVERNMENT for directing railroads and
would realize successful results against failures on the part of the gov
eminent.
There seems to be an impression that the government would be
superior to private enterprise, which impression is apparently founded
on experience in Europe. Public ownership or governmental owner
ship, as it is more properly called in countries having a different poit-
ial organization, IS NOT THE SUCCESS IN EUROPE that
by some Americans it is believed to be. In fact, government owner
ship is FAILURE in Europe.
Italy, for example, would gladly surrender its proprietary interests
and it's public obligations, and it is even now taking steps to turn the
states lines over to private companies. Governmental ownership and
management of the telegraph lines OF Great Britain is an expensive
experiment for the administration.
THE BURDEN OF THE COMPARATIVE FAILURE OF THIS FORM
OF GOVERNMENTAL ENTE' PRISE RESTS ON THE TAXPAYERS OF
ENGLAND.
The chief reason that state ownership of railroads prevails in Eu-
rope is the necessity or desire to provide ample PRECAUTIONS
AGAINST THE POSSIBILITY OF WAR. Europe is virtually
armed at all times, and it is for the purpose of being able to control the
arteries of travel in the event of hostiitics that governmental owner
ship of railroads is the general policy. FROM OTHER STAND
POINTS governmental ownership of carriers is not a success.

SCHEDULES Versus SPEED

AM of the opinion that what the public reishes MORE
THAN FAST TIME is trains being OF time. Adherence to
schedules is a thing to be aimed at. American strenuoshy has
influenced the railroads to reduce the running time of trains
to a point that in many instances is inconsistent with conservative and
CAREFUL MANAGEMENT. A train keyed to its best has no
chance to make up time lost on account Of delays incident to a trip Of
even a couple of hundred miles; consequently time lost is seldom
regained. During the past few years there has been a feeling on the
part of many railroad men that they must put fast schedules ON
TINE CARDS, even if they cannot adhere to them. If a road is not
in physical condition to make forty miles an hour it would be more to
its advantage to make thirty6ve miles an hour, as it finally becomes
known that such a road is ATTEMPTING THE IMPOSSIBLE,
and the public acts accordingly.
The average passenger would prefer to use a train of ordinary
speed with the assurance that it will arrive at its destination ON
TINE.

NOT SUFFICIENT. Conservative people of the country should
wake up to the fact that the church can be made a powerful factor to
bring about this needed reform.
Under the administration Of Lincoln there was more falsity to
public trust than we have ever had since. One of the good signs of
the times is that we are coming to hold men to PERSONAL RE-
SPONSIBILITY. In this regard the interests of the church and the
state are identical.
