The photographic Office has issued re-
peated warnings Of the presence Of the
icebergs in the northern passage.

tanic disaster were reflected In more
ways than one IN the House to-day. The

Say Coast Liners Are Deficient.

SAY Coast Liners Are Deficient.
Provision is made on all steamships In
this country and abroad for lifebelt equip
ment for all the passengers and crew the
vessels carry. but the lifeboat provision Is
deplorably deficient
When the question what would happen 10
the smaller boats in the American coast
wise trade II they encountered conditions
like that of the Titanic the men OF the
local steamboat inspection threw UP their
hands.
IL has been practically conceded by all
those who have to do with steamships that
any vessel confronted with the combination
OF circumstances such as those that oeset
tho Titanic would have Jared as badly II
not worse.
Nowhere yesterday would steamship men
admit that their vessels had sufficient life-
boats aboard TO float at one time their
entire crew and their full passenger COM
plement. The Victoria Luise, Of the Ham
burg American Line, however, was onered
as an exception. She is the old Deutsch-
land. rebuilt and adapted for cruises Her
passenger accommodation, however, Is I'm
tied TO five hundred persons and her lie
boats, Il is said. can easily accommodate dt
one time a thousand persons.
Unfortunately, the law controlling life
saving equipment In this country and
abroad is based upon tonnage with regard
IN the number of lifeboats a vessel shall
carry Had the law demanded lifeboats
sufficient In number and size to float Ves-
cells maximum number of crew and pas
seneers the Titanic's death toll would have
been comparatively small.
Foreiqn Inspection Accepted.
The local steamboat inspectors have prac'
tically little or nothing to do with the in
snection Of foreign steamships coming from
countries where there are similar modes OF
inspection which have had the sanction and
approval Of this government
The local inspectors receive the foreign
vessels certificate of inspection and accept
q for it's face value. Their only concern in
accordance with the law is to see that tho
certificate or it's renewal is Forthcoming
avarv wear This does not apply TO the
italian vessels, however, as there Is nc
| agreement between Italy and the United
States on this matter. Every Italian liner

Iitanic's survivors Secretary Mac
Neagh will take this matter up with the
President Tomorrow morning, and 1t is
possible further representations will be
made 10 the Cunard company by order
of the President. As the Carpa thia is
stesming steadily toward New York and
as the revenue cutters are not the fast
est ships, II is possible that no great
time in obtaining news will be lost as a
result of the refusal of the Cunard com
pany, II it Is persisted in.
President Taft has instructed General
Uhler. chief Of the Steamboat Inspection
Service, to take every precaution against
a repetition of such q disaster. and an
investigation will probably be conducted
TO determine whether the existing law
regarding the provision of lifeboats and

MARKET REPORT

Kansas City Stock Yards, October
/, 1912. The same words are used
n describing the market cd a y
that have been in use since the first
of last week, steady to weak. Prime
steers and butcher grades are steady.
medium steers and feeders are weak,
stock steers steady. Runs are exceed
ing first estimate this week, the
supply today counting up $4,000 head
including 1000 calves. Recent frosts
are hurrying pasture cattle in, and
dealers believe this week and next
will see the crest of the fall run
Packers are refraining from bidding
on feeders, there being plenty of
f1eShy grass steers available. though
they are not averse to seeing liberal
number of heavy cattle go on feed at
this time. Country buyers exerted
themselves here last month, taking
out 11S,0O0 cattle and calves, a good
proportion of which went right on
feed. That was fifty per cent more
cattle than were taken out same
month last year, and some of the
prophets are forecasting disappoint-
ing prices when the short fed steers
return. Prime cattle have been a
minus quantity here this week, some
choice westerns bringing So 95 yester-
day considered about one dollar under
the limit on prime natives. Kansas
pasture steers bring $500 to So 35,
quarantine steers so to IS. rs, grass
cows and heifers So. rs to $500, veal
calves little cheaper this week, tops
$3.50, stock steers $50 to $3.50, feed
ers $3.50 to 500. Hog receipts today

position at the head of the procession

today only a shade under the top.
Sheep and lambs met a reverse yester-
day, and are barely steady today, at
the bottom of the decline of yesterday,
run $4,000. Top range lambs today

native territory will be short, and
the west will feed a normal number.

If there is one thing more certain
than any other, it is that President
Taft is not dominated by the social
ed political bosses. The truth i S
that he refused to be dominated by
the greatest of modern bosses, Theo-
dore Roosevelt. If President Taft
had granted all the favors which
Roosevelt asked, if he had appointed
to office all the persons whom MIR.
Roosevelt recommended, and if h e
had been, in short, Mr.. Roosevelt's
plant tool he would not today find
himself opposed for the presidency by
his predecessor. Mr.. Taft has never
been dominated by the so-called boss
es. He has made appointments to
Office for the good of the public
service and not to OBJ ge men who
desired recognition for political
reasons. 1t is common saying,
accepted by all men, that Mr.. Taft is
not a politician. The very frequency
of this assertion proves that President
Taft has free and courageous mind
which acts independently of suggest
ions from those who are in politics
for purely selfish reasons. The situa-
ton in which Mr.. Taft finds himself
today, when he is opposed for the
presidency by man whose domina-
ton he would not accept, and when
the ''bosses'' are giving him only luke
warm support, is competent answer
to the untruthful charge that he is
subject to boss domination.-Ex
