SOUTHAMPTON, Eng, April 25-
The situation connected with the White
Star liner Olympic was seriously COM
plicated today by a sudden demand ad-
vanced by British Seafarers union that
the White Star company dismiss eigh.
teen of the 6remen belonging to the
union who remained on the Olympic
Yesterday. Otherwise, the Seafarers'
union declares, the 6remen and oilers
who left the ship will not return.
The demand was made by deputa-
ton of strikers and other members OF
the Seafarers' union who went on board
the liner this morning to test the new
collapsible lifeboats which had been in
stalled on the liner since the disaster
to the Titanic.
The company absolutely refused to
consider the mems demand, and de-
clares it prefers to take the liner back
to Southampton and lay her up.
Matters appear to have reached a
complete deadlock as there are 900
striking engineermen hands now on the
quay side with their kit bags, awaiting
the return of the deputation, and are
m readiness to embark if the dispute is

NEW YORK, April 25-The two
hundred and FIVE bodies, victims of the
Titanic disaster, which were found at
sea by cable steamer Mackay Bennett,
are being taken to Halifax, N. S. Cap
tain of steamer confirms identification
of George D. Widener, of Philadelphia,
and says he believes the majority of
the bodies never came to the surface.
The finding of more bodies was made
known today. A wireless dispatch was
received at the White Star line through
the Cape Race station. The message
also warns ships to give the place Of
finding bodies a wide berth, and says
medical opinions claim death in most
cases were instantaneous, owing to the
pressure OF the bodies being drawn in
to the vortex. ..-., ~
That the body Of Major Archibald
w. Butt, President Taft's aide, will be
among the bodies recovered, is be-
lieved as a result of the checking list
sent from the cable ship. Two names
now deciphered from one, "Nihilsche-
dig Rbatt," the first being Nahilschedig,
and the other Il. Butt" which is
thought may be that of the military
aide. a.
