SEVEN PERSONS DIE
ON ONE LIFEBOAT
Only Those Standing In Halt
Filled Graft Survived.

New York, April 20.-George Rheims
OF this city was on the Titanic with
his brother-in-law, Joseph Holland
Loring of London He said no one
seemed to know for twenty minutes
after the boat struck that anything
had happened. Many of the passen-
gers stood around for an hour with
their lifebelts on, he said and saw
people getting into the boats.
When all the boats had gone, he
added, he shook hands with his broth
er-in-law, who would not jump and
leaped over the side of the boat He
swan a quarter of an hour and
reached a boat and climbed in.
He found the boat, with eighteen
occupants, half under water. The peo-
pie were in water up to their knees.
Seven of them, he said. died during
the night, only those standing remain
ing alive. After six hours in the cold
water the situation became critical be-
cause the boat was sinking.
Four bodies were left in the boat
when 1t was picked up by the Car
pathia, he said

CRASH CAUSES LITTLE
ALARM ON STEAMER.

But 1t was a clear and starlight
night and the great ship sped through
the quiet seas with officers confident
that even though an iceberg should
be seen the vessel could be controlled
in ample time.
When the crash came there was
practically no excitement Many who
felt anxious enough to go on deck to
inquire what had happened were but
little perturbed when they learned
that the ship had only struck an ice
berg" 1t appeared to be a glancing
blow and at first there was no indica-
ton of serious accident. A group of
men at cards in the smoking room
sent one of their number to look out of
the window and when he came back
with the announcement that the boat
had grazed an iceberg the party re-
sumed the game-but 1t was never
finished.
The stoppage of the engines was
noticed more than the collision, the
effect being, as one survivor put it,
like the stopping of a loud ticking
clock.
The over confident passengers were
not brought to the slightest realiza-
tion that the collision might mean Sc
rious danger until the call ran through
the ship:
"All passengers on deck with life
belts on"

STEAMSHIP MANAGER
HAS LITTLE TO SAY

3ruce Ismay is said by some OF
the 4ssengers to have been one OF
tn. iirst to get into the lifeboats, but
this is denied by Mr.. Ismay.
Stunned by the immensity of the
tragedy he had little to say except
that he had heard of the investigation
which the United States senate had
begun and expressed his full willing
ness to assist the inquiry.
The surviving passengers are unani-
nous that the unbelievable" hap
pened. The voyage had been pleasant
and uneventful. The Titanic had been
making good time and all accounts
agree that on the night of the disaster
she was apparently going at her usual
rate of from twenty-one to twenty-five
knots an hour.
Quartermaster Moody, who was at
the helm, said that the ship was max.
ing twenty-one knots and that the
officers were under orders at the time
to keep up speed in the hope of max
ing record passage
These orders were being carried out
In the face of knowledge that the

CAPTAIN SMITH TAKES
CONTROL OF SITUATION.

Captain Smith, 1t is said, was not OH
the bridge when the collision occurred
but when hurrisdly summoned by his
first officer he took charge of what
seemed hopeless situation In man
ner which the passengers praise as
calm, resolute and efficient to the last.
One of the most stirring narratives
Of action and description of scenes
that followed the collision was told by
l.. Beasley, a Cambridge university
man who was one of the surviving Sec
ond cabin passengers.
"The steamer lay just as II she were
awaiting the order to go on again
when some trifiing matter had been
adjusted" he said, "but In few min

EXPLODING BOILERS
AID IN DESTRUCTION

The Titanic struck an iceberg about
ninety feet high, which ripped the lin
er's sides open and made the water
tight compartments useless and while
the vessel was gradually sinking the
icy water reached her steaming boil
ers, causing an explosion which sent
her to the bottom.
Among the hundreds on her decks
to the last were Colonel John Jacob
Astor, Major Archibald Butt, Benjamin
Guggenheim, Jacques Futrelle, George
d. Widener, Henry B. Harris and
scores of other we'll known persons.
lsidor Straus was among them also,
with Mrs. Straus, who refused TO leave
her husband behind when she had the
opportunity to save herself.
Major Butt, with an iron bar in his
hand, is said to have stood at the
steerage passage and defended the
women and children from maddened
men.
Colonel Astor also is said to have
met his fate bravely, after seeing his
bride to lifeboat, drawing aside to
watch other women step to safety and
awaiting his own fate.
1t was only because the maximum
capacity of the steamers lifeboats was
barely a third the complement of the
ship in crew and passengers that hun
dreds of despairing passengers had to
be left to their fate.

cause Of Inadequate Sup
ply Of lifeb0ats.

New York, April 2O-The Titanic
disaster, as written into history by
many of the 745 survivors, accounts
for the loss of ,595 persons at sea of
the New Foundland banks early Mon
day morning and the subsequent death
CT six persons who had been rescued,
bringing the total of lives lost to 1,60l.
These official figures magnify great
ly estimates which had come by wire
less and the stories which survivors
tell make certain, as had already been
ports, that the disaster is the greatest
that ocean travel has ever known.
The big facts which came to the
surface in the flood of narratives are
that 1,60l persons met their death;
that there is hardly the shadow of a
hope that this grand total will be cur
tailed by single additional survivor;
that several men of wealth al l world
wide prominence are, as had been
feared for several days, among those
who perished; that practically the
only women who were not saved were
those who chose to die with their hus-
bands; that nearly all of the survivors
saw the Titanic sink and heard the
music of the orchestra playing Nearer
My God to Thee" mingling with the
shrieks of the drowning as the vessel
sank in 1000 fathoms.

CARPATHIA REACHES
THE SCENE AT DAWN.

With the last hope gone of seeing
their loved ones alive many women
In the lifeboats seemed to be indif-
ferent whether they were saved or
not. They were nearly 1000 miles
from land and no knowledge that a
ship of succor was speeding to them.
Without provisions or water there
seemed little hope of surviving in the
bitter cold.
There were sixteen boats in the pro-
cession which entered upon the terri

that the ship on which they had start
ed was sure to bring them safely here
was now turned to utter helplessness.
But the shock of learning that their
lives were in peril was hardly greater
than the relief when, at dawn, large
steamers smokestack was seen on the
horizon.
The rescue ship proved to be the
Carpathia, which had received the I'll
tanic's distress signals. By o'clock
in the morning all the Titanics six
teen boats had been picked up and
their chilled and hungry occupants
welcomed over the Carpathia's side.

Presently we heard the order: All

A healthy dog, living natural and

He not only helps to smooth the
