NO BLAME FOR EMPRESS
OF CHINA DISASTER
(Continuad fy,fn marc nip0N

THAT the shore along this part OF
Japan is subject to varying and un-
certain currents subject to sudden
and severe changes after strong
storm such as it is matter of COM
mon knowledge to the court occurred
with exceptional violence off that
coast of Japan on the 26th of July,
That the Empress Of China was
well found and Differed, the watch
properly set, and every precaution
taken in speed, sounding, lookout,
etc, that seamanship could suggest
"That after striking, so far as the
evidence given shows, everything
proper and necessary was done by
the master, certifcated officers and
crew in the interests of the ship and
cargo, and particularly in securing
the safe and rapid landing of passen-
gers.
"The court having regard to the
circumstances as above stated finds
THAT the stranding of the S. S.
Empress of China was due to the YES
sci having been set out OF her course
eighteen nautical miles to the north
east by strong and unusual current,
of the existence of which the master
had no knowledge and no means Of
knowing and to the mistiness and
obscurity which left him in ignorance
of his proximity to the shore.
THAT all ordinary precautions 10
prevent such a disaster had been
taken by the master, a disaster which
could only have been averted had
some signal or warning been percept-
ible from the shore"

of American sailors from the disas
trous effects of gun fire. Ear safe
guards used in foreign nayies are be-
ing compared with similar devices sup
piled American seamen and it is eX-
pected that a protector shortly will
be evolved that will resist the terrific
conclusion of ting big guns. The sub
iect is being investigated by Dr. f.
NJ. Shipp of the naval medical corps
The ear protectors now used are fill
ed with cotton. The great shock from
one of the mammoth guns is likely to
rupture an ear drum and produce deaf
ness at once unless the delicate or
gan is properly protected. Also, it is
feared that the constant firing of the
small arms, such as the service rifles,
may gradually produce the same eff
fects. So Doctor Ship is looking into
the question at home and abroad,
studying the effects Of the big and
small guns, and 1t Is possible that
American sailors will soon use a new
car protector IN all target practice.

MORE ABOUT THE RESCUE.
Continued from page nlne.)

While he was unknown to the rest
Of the party it is believed that he
lives in this city or Los Angeles.
The popularity of the Hawaiian
surf boards was to a large extent re-
sponsible for the effectiveness of the
rescue of both the stranger and his
first rescuer, Paul Rowan. The
boards are made of the beautifully
grained koa wood of the Hawaiian
isles and are six feet long. They
are three inches thick and eighteen
inches wide. In coasting there is
sufficient wood in one of them to al
most bear the weight of one man, and
in this instance they proved the sal
walton Of two men.
Expert Suffers.
Both Albright and Stout are eX-
pert surf board riders and for years
coasted on the foaming breakers
which run in on the beach between
Diamond Head and Honolulu There
the breakers run mountains high at
great speed for a distance of nearly
half a mile. Big canoes with outrig-
gers are also used to coast the
breakers at that point in Hawaii and
on coming to the mainland, both men
brought their boards with them.
Yesterday they were riding the
breakers with the greatest ease in
front of the Virginia and large
crowd was watching them as they
stood up on the boards and coasted
rapidly ashore. The rescue yester-
day was probably the first of the
kind ever effected in a similar man
ner on the coast and the success OF
the men with their boards may result
in the general use of the same type
at this beach.
Rowan was out bright and early
this morning none the worse for the
salt water he was forced to inhale.
81 don't mind drinking a little sea-
water when I want to" he said, "but
I do object to having it forced down
my throat whether I want it or not,
and that was that the stranger was
evidently trying to do with me-"
Both Albright and Stout made
light of the incident, and from infor-
nation supplied from other sources
it was learned that they made fire.

was manager for the Seaside Hotel

TO UNVElL BRYANT STATUE
Dr., Van Dyke Will Speak on THE
Father of American Poetry"

a bronze statue OF William Cullen Bry-
ant will be unveiled in Bryant Park on the
west centre II the New York Public Ii
brary tomorrow afternoon by the Bryant
Memorial Committee Of the Century Asso-
citation. John BieelOw is chairman OF the
committee, having served in that capacity
since June 2 1855. when the Century Asso-
citation. of which William Cullen Bryant
had been president before his death. ap-
pointed a committee OF three members,
which was later enlarged 10 seven, TO So
lict subscriptions for the erection Of
suitable monument to Bryants memory.
Mr. Bigelow has issued report of the
committee stating that. after years OF effort
sSnt in finding a suitable. SPOT for the
monument. all Is at last in readiness for its
presentation TO the city.
The task of raising the money for the
monument was an easy one. and the re-
qured amount was ready years before the
committee could get d suitable site. Per-
mission TO place it in Central Park was
sought in vain. Meanwhile, in 1854, when
the removal Of the reservoir from Fifth
avenue was contemplated. the Bryant
Memorial Committee successfully besought
the Commissioner Of Public Parks 10 have
the name Of the site changed from Resr-
voir Square 20 Bryant Park, and in the
Legislature the bill, which was the first or
fetal honor probably ever paid by the city
10 the memory Of William Cullen Bryant,
passed both houses unanimously.
The consolidation Of the New York Pub
lie Library IN 1895 and the erection Of the
palatial building for its properties gave the
city another opportunity TO honor Bry-
ants memory An application was made
TO the Park Commissioner for pernis-
sion TO erect the Century Association
monument or the esplanade Immediately
adjoining the west front Of the New YORK
Public Library, in the same park which
bears Bryants name, and on February H.
1911. the Art Commission approved the plan.
