HOW PEOPLE SEE THINGS

The New York World finds in the
varying accounts Of the survivors Of

people commonly call the inaccuracv.
If they call Il no worse or the news

The saved passengers agree on
scarcely any essential detail Of the dk
aster. To begin with. they differ ma
terially as to whether the impact with
the iceberg caused a slight Jar or a
great crash The descriptions run the
gamut from nothing 10 speak Of to
tremendous crash" Some pasgen-
gers heard explosions and saw the
ship break In two before she sank
Others saw her gradually up-end and

other declares there was a panic, with
officers menacing men with revolvers

The point the World makes and il Is
n good one, il that few persons see
clearly or describe accurately what
they see. IL Is on their statements
that newspaper reports are based. The
wonder is, not that newspapers are oc-
casionally inaccurate, but that they are
ms accurate as they are. The fact is
that in any important matter the re-
porters constitute themselves a com
nittee Of cross-examination. and IN the
limited time az their disposal make ex-
pert efforts to verify their information

HUSBAND FORC|VES
HIS ERRINC sWFE
East ST. Louis Woman Told of
Death of Affinity While With
Him in a Hotel.

st. Louis, March 6.-Her voice
shaken by sobs, Mrs. Mabel Gill
ham of East st. Louis, told Deputy
Coroner Faith yesterday of secretly
leaving her home with Arthur Cor
bett, a neighbor, of their visiting
the new London Hotel of st. Louis,
and of Corbett's sudden death there
yesterday afternoon. Mrs. Gill
hams husband sat in the court
room and heard his wife's story.
Must tell everything?" she
pleaded.
Yes, everything" answered Faith.
II became infatuated with Cor
bett a short time ago." she said.
He lived right across the street
from us. He followed me to the
store several times. Then he
asked me when | was going to st.
Louis. I told him Monday.
HE took me to the hotel and we
went up to the ROOM"
Mrs. Gillham's voice broke and
she wavered, but after a look in the
direction of her husband, she con-
tinued
I'VE wer getting ready to leave
when he became sick. I saw him
Iput some water on his face. Then
Il screamed and rushed to help
him."
"She has always been a good
wife," Gillian said. This is her
first mistake, and | am not going
to cast her aside"
The coroner's jury returned a
verdict of death due to heart dis
ease. Mrs. Gillian will be released.
