Mail Almost Total LOSS.

A great proportion OF this, it was saids
was carried personally by the passengers.
Furthermore, it is learned that all the
insurance carried by the White Star Line
on the big liner and her cargo-human
and mercantile-was distributed among
dozen companies throughout Europe by
the Lloyd concern.
The mail, with the exception OF regis
tered parcels, which were in most cases
insured by the senders, will be total
loss. Mr.. Mather referred to reports from
London which show that the time elaps-
Ing from September 1, 1911, until March
81, 1912. showed the greatest loss to in
surance companies through marine dis
asters of any similar period In years
The British report showed that the IN
surance companies had paid out to the
heirs of persons lost at sea about $780,
COO pounds sterling in that length of time,
and that an amount almost as large, II
not greater, was paid out on lost ships
| and cargoes. This represents total losses.
Damages to vessels and cargoes added
another million pounds, and the amount
of personal moneys and belongings was
| still uncomputed. These figures, rein
forced by the terrific losses incurred by
/ the laundering of the Titanic, would
make the total for the year ending Sep
| tember 1. 1912. the most disastrous In

SURVIVORS ARE UNABLE
TO COLLECT DAMAGES
LIoyd's Agents Say Iceberg
! Crash Is an Unavoidable
: . Accident.

NEW YORK. April 17.-According to
the representatives of Lloyd's, the pas
sengers on the Titanic-at least, the sur
vivors and the relatives OF those lost
will be unable to collect damages This
they argue on the ground that striking
an iceberg is what is known In marine
insurance as an unavoidable accident.
This, they claim. is distinctly specified
in marine policies.
They likewise declare that it is impos-
sible to tell, from the insurance company
standpoint, just what was the amount OF
the insurance carried by the Titanic. 1t
is known that the hull was insured by
Lloyd's for 100000 pounds sterling, but
this. 1t is said, Is but minute part OF
the insurance that will be affected. 1t Is
said in the offices of Mather 4 CO., who
represent Lloyd's in this city. that In all
probability the ship itself, the passengers:
their effects and the cargo were insured
for many times the amount placed upon
the hull.
