wealth of half dozen of the passen.
gers Of the Titanic, which struck an
iceberg 400 miles from the coast of
Newfoundland, amounts to at least a
billion dollars. Although the men men.
toned are the wealthiest of the pas
sengers, there are numerous others
whose wealth range from 100000
to S10,000,000 each 1t is not often
that a liner has so many wealthy or
notable passengers on its list
The reason is that many of those
aboard purposely arranged their affairs
so as to be able to come across the At.
lantic on the maiden journey of the
largest steam vessel afloat.

NO LOSS OF LIFE REPORTED
Latest Dispatches Indicate That
Passengers Are Safe on
Other Vessels.

New York, April l5.-With her bow
crumpled up by collision with a great
iceberg, the Titanic, greatest ocean
steamship afioat, is believed TO be
limping toward Halifax in tow Of the
virginian, one of the four vessels sum
moned to the giant liners side by wire

foe about 1900 miles east of New
York and about 400 from Cape Race,
N r.
The 1870 passengers on the big ship
are all safe, according to the latest
fragmentary news received by wire
less. Many of them are said to have
been taken on board the Carpathia, the
first vessel to reach the disabled liner.
The Titanic met disaster on her
maiden trip across the ocean, crash
ing into the big foe while presumably
travelling slowly in a dense fog. The
ship Immediately began to sink SLOW
ly by the bow and the wireless IS.
o. s." call was flashed out all over
the ocean. The Virginian was the
first vessel to catch the distress signal
and she Immediately relsyed the news
to New York and started for the Grip
pied boat Other vessels heard the
call also, and they, too, began to race
for the position Indicated in the wire
less summons.
Though the wireless calls ended
abruptly and though word from the
vessels which have reached the scene
of the disaster is of an extremely frag-
mentary character, 1t is not believed
that there was any loss of life. Off.
cials of the White Star line were posi-
tive that the watertight compartments
would keep the Titanic afioat under
any conditions, and the latest word
from the ocean is that the ship is still
sufficiently seaworthy to permit of be
ing towed toward land.
Twenty Boatloads Transferred.

that twenty boatloads had been trans

from forty to sixty persons as the ca
pacity of each lifeboat, some 500 oi
