Wireless Story of Tragedy Is Maze of Contra
 dictions New Law to Be Passed Which Will for All Time Require Continuous Wire less Service By Compe- tent Operators.

Washington, April 27.-The wire less story of the Titanic tragedy was the mutely dramatic evidence, today, before the Senate investigating com mittee. Two dozen brief messages received by the operator of the Cana dian-Pacific steamer Mount Temple were read by Captain James P. Moore.
 From the first 'tC. 0. D." of the Titanic, at 1925 (ship's time,) on the Hateful Sunday night, until the mes- sage at midnight, ''No reply from Titanic," the most complete wireless record of the disaster was submitted. Captain Moore also told of a desper- ate battle through ice fields to reach the Titanic. He denied the Mount Temple passengers story that they saw distress rockets of the sinking giant liner.
 From the lips of the grizzled old "sea dog" gray bearded old son of Neptune, came a story that gripped the spectators and members of the committee with intense interest.
 The 'log' presented showed the Frankfort asked for details of the Titanic's trouble, got a second reply and promised immediate help. Light on the identity of the, phantom ship'' whose lights were seen from the Ti- tan1c's lifeboats was also thrown by Captain Moore. He told of seeing a tramp steamer near the Titanic's ocean grave, Monday morning and, during the night an unknown schoon- CT. He said the schooner's lights dis appeared queerly after a time. The Mount Temple, Captain Moore said, got the Titanic's "C. o. D." at 1925 p. m., when 4s miles away. At a:25 a.. m., when 14 miles distant from the Titanic, the Mount Temple was caught in the ice. At daybreak he reached the Titanic's position but found only immense ice floes. .tAt 12:50 a. m., was wakened with a message from the Marconi opera tor,'' Captain Moore continued "It said that the Titanic was sending out c. o.

 How far did you estimate the ri tanic was from your vessel?" asked late, 41:46 north and 50:54 west" said Moore 'She was about 49 miles away. The new position given was 10 miles further east than the first
 "At 3 o'clock we met the ice and I doubled the lookout. Shorty after were stopped by the ice, when about IA miles from the Titanic. It was dark then.
 Before that I met a schooner, a small craft and had to get out o1 her way. The schooner's lights seem ed to go out later on. It was be- tween me and the Titanic, on oa1 port bow in our course. I was go- ing due east and the schooner was coming from the direction of the Iii tanic.
