EXCESSIVE SPEED
CAUSE TITANIC WRECK
One Of Findings of British
BOard-Report Exon
crates ISnaV.

London, England, July So--The judg-
ment Of the British board Of trade
court of inquiry into the disaster to
the White Star liner Titanic, which
sank in midocean with 1917 souls, after
collision with an iceberg. on April "A.
was propOunded today by lord Mersey,
the presiding judge. before a large au-
dience-
The court finds that the collision
was due to excessive speed; that a
proper watch was not kept; that the
Leyland liner Californian might have
reached the Titanic II she had attempt
ed to have done so.
The court of inquiry eXonerates J.
Bruce ISmay, chairman and managing
director of the White Star line. and sir
CosmO-Duff Gordon, one OF the passen-
gers. from any charges Of improper
conduct
Lord Mersey's judgment is a formal
legal document.
The very gross charge against sir
CosmO-Duff Gordon that he bribsd the
bOatmen to row away from drowning
people is unfOunded At the same time.
I think, if he had encouraged the men
70 return to where the Titanic had
fOundered they probably would have
made an effort to do so and could have
saved some lives.
The attack on j. Bruce ISmay" con-
cluded the judge, resolved itself into
the suggestion that occupying the DO
SluOn Of managing director of the line
some moral duty was imposed upon
him to await on board until the vessel
fOundered- I do not agree. He would
merely have added one more life to the
number lost"
The recommendations Of the court in
cludes the following:
The board of trade should investf-
gate the practicability of providing
Sea-going ships, in addition to their
watertight transverse buIkheads. with
a double skin carried above the water
line. or with a longitudinal verticIe
watertght bulkhead on each side OF
the vessel, or with both"

COTTON DECLINES SINCE
NEGTLERn Y y DOINE

New York, n. Y, July 3O.-There
was a sharp decline in the cotton mar
ket today, new crop deliveries selling
at about 80 points under the closing
price of yesterday and nearly y a
cent. or about $3.50 per bale, under
the high record of yesterday morning,
as result of general realizing or
liquidation
Reports of improved crop conditions
in the eastern belt and of showers in
the drouth sections of Oklahoma
seemed to inspire se:-ers in connec-
ton with reports that trade demand
had slackencd around the $50 level,
and claims that a bullish crop report
from the government next Friday had
been fully discounted.

prison laws in the nation. Some
of the wholesome requirements
! in this law was that religious
services should be held in every
camp at least twice month; pro-
visions at every camp for schools
of instruction in the elementary
branches of the English language
and industrial education, suitable
clothing, wholesome food and
I forbidding gambling of any kind.
This law required the classical
tion of all prisoners into three
classes. The first class to con-
sist of Young men, first offenders,
who are not hardened criminals.
The second class to consist of the
more vicious and the third class
TO consist of confirmed criminals.
These are 10 be kept on separate
farms and at separate prisons,
The stripes were TO be removed
from all except those Of the third
class.
The bat" used up to this time
was a huge leather strap, but
this was abolished and no whip
ping was allowed except the third
class, and then the strap was to
be only 2 II inches wide and p
inches long. Whipping had TO
be permitted by two members OF
the prison commission, and re-
ported by the officer administer
ing same.
In order that Governor Col
quit should not be handicapped
this law did not become effective
until Jan. 20, 1911, so that he
might make his appointments Of
commissioners.
Notwithstanding this law was
on our statutes he said nothing
about the bat until some l3
months after his Inauguration,
and on the same day that Judge
Ramsey's speech denouncing lt
was published.
Granting that he did what he
claims, he did no more than any
law abiding citizen should have
done, for the law passed before
he was elected governor directed
him to have these very things
done.
Now we desire that you get
your pencil and paper and figure
little on the financial condition
of the penitentiary under Gov
ernor Colquitts administration.
All the figures used here are
taken from the official report OF
the auditor Of the peniteptianes,

not be questioned. When Col
