WEBER MAY DECLINE.
Nominee for Judge Is Considering the
Matter of Withdrawal.

There Is strong probs bility that
Judge A j. Weber. who has been named
by the Democrats for one OF the district
iudsesbirs. will decline the nomination.
Judge Weber was taken wholly by sur
prise hv the nomination. as he WAS In no
sense a candidate and was unpreparod TO
act as "A candidate.
Judge Weber had promised Democrats
III various parts OF the state Ia deliver
several speeches during the campaign and
hr had planned to assist the party by
a speaking tour throughout the state IL
lie continues OH the judicial ticket he will
not he in position 10 take such an ac-
tive part in the campaign. This is espe-
ciallv true since the Democrats have de-
clared for an absolutely nom pa rtisan
judicial ticket. II Is not unlikely that
Judge Weber Will withdraw from the
judicial ticket Within the neNt few days,
that he may feel free to assist In the

LIFE PRESERyERS
WERE OF NO USE
TO THOSE IN SEA
Persons Overheard Could
Not Have Lived More
Than Two Hours.

Life preservers were of no use to
the unfortunates who were dragged
down with the Titanic, or who were
thrown into the water before that ves-
sci sank. According to Patterson s
Nautical Encyclopedia, official docu-
ments of the photographic office, and
other Information familiar to all mari
ners. the waters where the Titanic
struck registered a temperature Of from
80 degrees to "a degrees Fahrenheit.
Thirty-four degrees is the miximum
possible temperature, 80 degrees being
the most probable.
No human being could live in water
of this temperature for more than an
not on sustaining object that would
keep the body out OF the water perished
az a result Of he cold.
Assistant Surgeon General Braisted
Of the navy, said today that two hours
is easily the maximum time that life
could be sustained in water near the
freezing point. The average person
without remarkable vitality, could not
sustain the cold for near that long. Cold
would not be the immediate cause OF
death, in most instances.
The cole causes n loss of all muscu-
lar control. and persons holding t.
%rerRage in such n contingency lose
their hold, fall of and drown after q
short period in the water"
Navy men said today that the belatc1
news that the Californian had a num-
her OF bodies aboar1 was expected by
them; The cold water they said: dis.
lives by the vessels arriving more than
AT hour after the Titanic sank.
