WASHINGTON. April 1S.-The sonnber
task of investigating the wreck of the
Titanic was begun today by senate COM
mittees. The commerce. committee ap-
pointed subcommittee of seven, mead
ed by Senator William Alden Smith, Of
Michigan, to take testimony. Chairman
Smith will leave at once for New York,
accompanied by a senate sergeant at
arms, to procure witnesses to attend i'm
mediate hearings. j. Bruce Ismay will
be among the first asked to testify.
Other members of the senate subcom-
mittee are, Senators Perkins, Bourne Bur-
ton, Simmons, Nevlands and Fletcher.
Senator Cullom announced today that
he would call a meeting of the for
eign relations committee Saturday with
view to reporting out the maritime res
olution requesting the president to open
negotiations for an international agree
ment in regard to the safety of passen-
gers at sea.
Among those who will be summoned
to appear before the congressional in
vestigating committee beside President

through the Titanic April H. the day

TITANIC WAS WARNED
Naval officials think that one of the

through the Titanic was the cause of the
Titanic's wreck. These officers we're
amazed by the reports that the Titanic
was going ahead at full speed in view
of the known presence of danger

catastrophe by a committee represent
ing both houses of congress is favored
by Chairman Alexander, of the house
committee on merchant marine. The &C
ton of the senate in authorizing an in
vestigation by its committee on com
merce will be followed by a suggestion
from Chairman Alexander. that joint
inquiry be proposed
INVITE ALL NATIONS.
The. resolutions would request the pres
ident to invite foreign nations. to the
conference. Chairman Alexander was
emphatic today in his declaration that
the present laws and maratime regua-
tons or the Onlteu STATES II properly
enforced, are strong enough to compel
an adequate number of life boats on YES
sells entering or leaving United States
ports. While the Titanic had never clear
ed from an American port the congress
sional investigation is expected to show
the extent to which other great ocean
liners adhere to the American safety reg
ulations.
many members of the house are openly
opposed to immediate action looking to-
ward an investigation of the disaster.
Representative Sulzer, of New York,
opposed an investigation. 1T is only
throwing dust I'm the peoples eye" he
said. THE matter was fully gone into
when the Slocum burned in New York
several years ago. What we want is to
make steamship owners criminally liable

Senator smith said that he feared
his committee would be without juris-
diction to compel Mr.. Ismay and 9TH

tend its hearing and give testimony.
I'VE may not have jurisdiction over
the individual" said Mr.. Smith, but
the American congress is not without
jurisdiction over the harbors of the
United States. II is for these men
who make use of the harbors to meet
the public demand for information In

Senator Smith said that he and 9TH

present this argument to Mr.. Ismay
and others in the hope that they would
be willing TO accept subpenas.

Chairman Smith and other members

NEW YORK. April 1s.-The Cunarder
Carpathia, bringing SOS of the ship
wrecked survivors of the sunken Titan
ic, is due at her dock at IL o'clock to-
night.
The rescue ship was off Nantucket
lightship. 1s6 miles away. at 6:55
o'clock this morning.
The wireless report that there are
only 7O5 survivors of the Titanic aboard
the Carpathia still persists. but no word
so far as can be learned, has come from
the Carpathia within the last "a hours
giving the exact number of shipwrecked
persons aboard. From figures available
at the White Star line offices it is prob
able that the number of those persisted
totals 1912 souls.
REFUSES TO ANSWER.
The Carpathia is said to be in good
working wireless zone. for numbers of
private messages from survivors and
dispatches to the line were constantly
being received during the morning, but
no word came to the repeated requests
for details of the accident. The cruis-
erS Chester ana SdieHl anu liie SONSAA-
ment wireless stations on shore stopped
sending that the carpathia might have
an uninterrupted field for. sending news.
THIRD CLASS NAMES.
The Carpathia has sent ashore the
names of 125 third class passengers
and has requested the White Star line
to send a ships officer and IA sailors on
two tugs to take charge of IS Titanic
lifeboats at quarantine. This would in
dictate that only Is lifeboats had been
found available for rescue work, instead
of 20 lifeboats, as had been approx
mated.
All hope has been given UP that Col
John Jacob Astor, Isador Straus, Benja-
min Guggenheim, George D. Widener,
Mai Archibald Butt, military aide to
President Taft; Henry B. Harris, the
theatrical manager, and Charles NJ
