 Moore said there were no vessels in sight at the point where the Titanic was supposed to go down except the tramp steamer spoken of and the Birma, whose smoke was all that could be seen at first. She came up rapidly. <
 bodies floating. Moore said he had seen none.
 'sIt was only possible the ice field could have covered the spot where the Titanic went down." said Moore. From 12:3o to 4:3o there was a drift of perhaps half a knot an hour"
 Moore suggested the theory that the suction of the sinking ship might have drawn the ice field over the spot. Smith observed that all sur vivors agreed there was no suction.
 ''The sinking was bound to cause suction,'' Moore persisted. When I heard of her sinking I said maybe some of those bodies on board might never be recovered.
 'I daresay, however, that the bulk heads burst, the alright compart- ments exploded and drove the bodies to the surface
 Moore declared that frequently yes sells had run at high speed where the Titanic was. He had never known the field ice to be so far south. If he had been warned as the Titanic was he said he would have considered it imprudent to run 21 a knots.
 My theory" he explained, "is that the Titanic touched one of these large, species of an iceberg-they are just like a jagged rock. That open ed up her plates and so much water entered the bulkheads could not cover the spot where the Titanic sank and may be now covering up the bodies"
 Moore said he was blocked by ice only IA miles from the Titanic and would have had to travel 100 miles around through the floes to reach the sinking vessel
 As a result of Moore's testimony, pr. F. c. Quitzreau, of Toronto, a Mount Temple passenger, will not be called here, Senator Smith stated. It was learned today, that Dr. Quitzreau had only heard gossip on the Mount Temple that the Titanic's rockets had been seen and ignored but had no positive knowledge of the alleged in- cident.
 Major Peuchen, of Toronto, declared in interviews that several of the off cers of the ship attended a dinner which he says was a hilarious affair.
 Second Officer Lghtoller, of the Ti- tanic, was recalled today for examina- tion regarding the identity of a Louis Klein, one of the witnesses who dis appeared after being brought here. declared that the only Klein on the Titanic was a barber, who drowned
 Klein was brought to Washington on the strength of allegations he made to a Cleveland newspaper that the TI- tanic's crew were drinking on the night the ocean giant struck. It was developed during Lightoller's exami- nation that he had seen Klein in Sem ator Smiths office and denounced him as an imposter
 "I never saw him before" was the officers statement at that time.
 Captain James H. Moore, of the Ca nadian Pacific steamer Mount Temple, was next called. The committee sum him because of the report that Titanic's lifeboats. thing, earth. rock or anything they can gather up in the glaciers on their way to the seaos' he declared, answer ing questions. ''Icebergs larger than the capitol building are not infre- quent," he added. Their presence is detected by tests of water temperature, the barometer and echoes of the siren whistles"
 where were you and your vessel on Sunday, April 14?'' asked Senator Smith, opening the principal exami- nation of the Mount Temples skip per-
