Sen. Smith Combines Praise
for Heroism With Rebuke

Washington, May 2S-Teeming
with eloquence, com bining praise for
heroism and scathing rebuke for neg
ligence and cowartlice of the most
APPALLING marine disaster of history,
was the final and official requiem to-
day in the senate for the victims of
the Titanic. Senator Smith of Michi-
gan, chairman of the senate investi-
eating committee. summed up his
views of the evidence. developed.
That every soul aboard the giant
steamship might have been saved,
but for the indifference in almost
criminal neglect of Captain Stanley
Lord and the other officers of the
Californian" was the most startling
charge Smith bitterly made.
Needless sacrifice" of at least
five hundred lives because the
strangely insufficient, number of
life-boats'' were not filled, was also
charged.
"obsolete and antiquated shipping
laws" and ''laxity of regulation and
hasty inspection" by the British board
of trade, were Denounced by Smith.
AS contributory cause he named the
indifference of Captain Smith of the
Titanic, for ignoring the warning and
forcing the Titanic at, full speed
through the northern waters. That
Captain Smith had expatiated his Of
fense by heroic death was Smith S

the South Orange barns are too small

the application, in fact all, II Presi
lent Thomas N. Mccarter would con-
sent to the phrase In the ordinance
which would necessarily be passed, this
ordinance shall be subject to all future
ordinances" and similar ones.
Mr.. O'Toole stated hat the head of the
corporation would not agree to such q
clause 10 the ordinance and gave his
reason. lie explained that la a few
years to come a future board might
change the ordinance specifying what
hours a day cars should run over the
sidewalk and the rule might cripple the
line seriously.
lie pointed out that the same clause
might in some way interfere with the
lines which were equipped with turn
outs" Commissioner Ryan made n mo.
ton that the Nineteenth street applica.
