President Sends Letter to
Tennessean Explaining
Trip of Military Aide.

President Taft today denied Major
Archibald Butt was returning from a
mission to Rome when he went to mis-
death on the luckless Titanic.
The denial is contained in letter
written at the Presidents order by Sec
retary Hilles and disposes Of the ru-
mors that the military aide was sent
to the Vatican to thank the Pope for
creating three new American cardinals
and that he was bringing important
letters back with him when he was
drowned.
Mr.. Hilles' letter, which was ad-
dressed to william J. oliver. of Knox
Vile, Tenn, is in part as follows:
There Is absolutely no truth In the
report that Major Butt was on mis-
sion to Rome. The sole object of his
trip was to get the benefit of the long
sea voyage, and in order to add to the
interest of the trip, the President gave
him a number of formal notes of In
PRODUCTION to personages in Rome,
whom he knew. None of the letters
contained more than a formal introduc-

Major Archibald Butt did not give his
life in vain in the Titanic disaster, IL
the American people will take the les
son of his life into their lives, is the
opinion of Capt. James F. Ryan, in
charge of the local army recruiting
station, who was a personal friend of

declared that the American people
should consider Major Butts life as
exemplifying the highest ideals Of Amer.

Il know no words that will express
my deep sorrow over the death of
Archie Butt said Captain Ryan, for
had learned to know him as an ideal
American. His loss is one which can
never be recompensed. Yet 1t seems
that, after all, the major may have had
to pay the price of his life to teach the
American people to value the things In

Clarence Moore died beyond doubt

leave the ship.

NEWARK. N. j., April 22.-The Rev.
Henry r. Rose, pastor of the Church
of the Redeemed. yesterday placed the
responsibility IF the Titanic disaster
on tile shoulders Of j. Bruce Ismay

The clergyman took for his topic,
Pass AS You Enter and said in

Every passenger on the Titanic had
to pay to enter, and had to pay 4 good

comfort. That is what they expected.
and that is what they had right to
get. Safety first: safety above every
thing else. for what will a man give
in exchange tor his life?
DO not blame this tragedy on God,
blame 1t upon the owners who took all
these chances for the sake of gain.
DO not blame It on the captain. He
was an employe and had to obey the
orders of the superior who was aboard,
