Mount Temple, Near IT,
taniC Disaster, Unable
to Reach Scene
IS STORY OF CAPTAIN
Bodies of Unidentified Picked
Up by MaCkay-Bennett to Be
Buried in Halifax.

Washington, April 27.-Two steam
ships and one schooner were only a
short distance from the Titanic when
it sank, according to the testimony of
Captain Moore of the Mount Temple
before the senate investigating COM
mittee today. Ice prevented the YES
sci from hurrying to the rescue.
The Mount Temple intercepted the
Titanic's distress signals, Captain
Moore said, and started Immediately
to the rescue. Enroute he saw lights
of a schooner within a few miles of
the scene of the disaster When day.
break came it disclosed a great ice
field and a tramp steamer ship close
by. The identity of neither the
schooner nor the tramp was fixed.
Moore, in telling his story, said the
wireless operator picked up the receiv'
er Just before going to bed to see
what was going on and caught the Tt
tanics signal of distress. The operator
copied all messages, which Moore Aub
mitted to the committee. These told
the story of the Titanic disaster
Moore said when the first message
was received he figured his vessel was
49 miles distant and Immediately SET
course for the Titanic's position, but
could make no progress on account OF
the heavy ice. The ice pack, said the
witness, consisted of a field of ice and
bergs.
BERGS 200 FEET HIGH.
He said he counted between 40 and
so bergs, the greater part being be
tween 100 and 200 feet high. He ar
rived at the Titanic's burial two hours
after the liner went down. He saw
no wreckage or bodies.
Moore said the Titanic had not fix
ed its position properly. He said i
must have been eight miles further
east than the sheet reported.
The fact you found no evidence
of a wreck when you got in the Tt
| tanic's position tends to confirm you
idea that the ship was eight mile,
eastward of the position it gave?'
asked Chairman Smith.
Yes replied Moore. Later
sighted the Carpathia on the otheI
side of the ice, where it picked III
the Titanic's boats"
IA MORE BODIES FOUND.
New York, April 27.-A wireless
received this afternoon by the Whit,
Star line from the Mackay-Bennet
