DEMANDS.
 VENGEANCE FOR
 l,492 WHO DIED

London, April 17-Vengeance for the 1,492 persons that went down to death in the sea with the ice crushed Ti- tanic was demanded, today, by prac- tically every London journal. The deplorable lack of lifesaving facilities aboard the gigantic liner has aroused widespread indignation and there was, today, a universal demand for a dras- tic investigation of the conditions un- der which all modern transatlantic steamers conduct their desperate speed to cut a few hours from the trip between America and Europe.
 Literally the newspapers demanded that the speed mania be stopped, that the dangerous northerly course where the Titanic met disaster, be deserted and the longer but safe southern route

 MAY HAVE
 SURVIVORS

Boston, April 17-While officials at the local offices of the Leyland Line Steamship Company refused absolute ly, this morning, to be quoted as holding out any hopes that survivors Or bodies of victims on the ill-fated Titanic might have been picked up by the liner Californian, which will dock here some time late this afternoon, or tomorrow morning, there is the faint est of hopes that such is the case.
 The Californian, westward bound, acting after receiving wireless com- munication from the Olympic, east ward bound, went out of her course slightly and according to wireless messages received here, combed every inch of the scene of the wreck for several miles in the hope of picking up any who might, by rarest chance. have survived the maelstrom of sue tion and whirlpool which must have followed the final plunge of the giant Titanic two miles below the surface.

MAJOR BUTT HAD WARNING
 HE'D SOON DIE

Washington, April 17-A mysterious warning that he would meet death on his trip abroad that ended in a night of terror in the ice bound seas off the Grand Banks came to Major Archibald Butt before he left Wash ington Six weeks ago, when the ma- jor determined on European trip to regain his health, a premonition that he might never return alive caus. ed him to make his will He called in his lawyer and closed up his af- fairs, preparing for death.
 President Taft and other friends of the missing officer hoped against hope, today, that the scout cruiser Salem, speeding toward the Carpathia, would report Butt alive and we'll but the conviction was general that he went down to death with the Titanic after the women and children had been put into the boats.

 ly 12 hours searching the waters above the great coffin ship in small boats. It was pointed out here by officials of the Leyland line that a great majority of those brave men who traded life for death for the women and children must have been either on the top decks or already in the water striving to swim from the scene when the Titanic went under. This surmise being correct, there is ifornian's small boats might have recovered some of the bodies, at least.
 All morning Leyland officials were getting fragmentary messages to and from the Californian which passed

JUNGLE SAM" MAY HAVE FIRST CLAIM
 ON FRANK POTTER

Detective George Fox is in Hart ford, today, seeking extradition pa pers for Frank O. Potter, alias c. A. Johnson, now under arrest in Wash ington, D. C., and wanted by the To- cal authorities for the embezzlement Wooster and John Armstrong of this city.
 The local authorities may run up against a delay, however, in the fact that Potter is also wanted by the U. $. postal authorities for misuse of the mails, and Uncle Sam may insist on first claim.
 When here about a year ago, Pot ter was organizing the Shop and a special overall for workingmen. The overall is really good idea, and is now being successfully manufactured and marketed, but Potter didn't want to make money that way and prefer red to get checks from his business associates. He left town suddenly.
 Potter is also wanted in Torrington for embezzlement of $1.O00 on the same lines, and when he left he is alleged Hotel Atlas here.
 Potter's capture was effected through the efforts of Detective George Fox, who secured a number of circulars of the Shop and Labra- tory Clothing Company in which Potter had carelessly posed for a pie ture to illustrate his own overalls. This picture proved the means of his undoing. Arrested in Washington for the authorities there recognized him as the man wanted in Bridgeport for a more serious offence and at once notified the local police.

OFFICERS OF WHITE STAR LINE CONCEALED NEWS Gave Out Reports That Titanic Was Afloat When They
 Knew That Ship Had
 Gone Down

Montreal, April 17-Investigation here, today, indicated that the sinking of the liner Titanic was known to the officials of the White Star line long before it was made public and at the very time that reassuring reports as- serting that all on board had been saved were being given out
 Many of the messages sent out on Monday declaring that the passengers and crew of the Titanic were safe, it was ascertained, originated in the New York office of the White Star Line. It is known that the news of the disaster was sent to Montreal Monday afternoon, was confirmed by a telephone message from New York and was kept absolutely quiet for hours.
 Meantime, the White Star reassur- ing bulletins continued.
 saying that the Virginian was towing the Titanic to port came from the wireless operator at Cape Race who was in a position to furnish the most authentic news of the disaster. His message was addressed to the press of Canada and the United States and was accepted here and transmitted elsewhere as authentic. No explana- tion has been received from the op- orator but it is believed he received from the sea which, in his judgment, warranted his message.
 Both the public and marine circles here were bitter. today, at the appar- ent suppression on Monday of the all- important news of the great loss of life, by the White Star officials.

REPUBLICANS OF CONNECTICUT
 PLEDGE DELEGATES TO TAFT

| New Haven, April 17-Resolutions endorsing Taft were adopted as fol- lows:
 Four years ago the Republicans of Connecticut did their part toward making William Howard Taft Presi- dent of the United States, and they have never for a moment regretted it. He has kept his oath, revered and defended the constitution, enforc- ed the laws and obeyed them himself. He has used the appointing power with scrupulous care and fidelity. He has striven to put the protective tariff on a scientifically sound basis. He has endeavored to open wider markets to the country's commerce. He has wisely and always law abidingly con- served the country's natural resources. He has instituted large and carefully thought out economies in govern

mental expenditures. He has urged Congress to join in carrying. civil ser vice reform to it's logical conclusion. The country has dwelt in peace under his vigilant and sagacious manage ment of it's affairs. his efforts to pro- mote peace among the nations have added a creditable page to American history. No President since Abraham Lincoln has accomplished more for the permanent good to the people than years.
 Fully believing that the best inter- ests of the country no less than those of the party require President Taft's renomination, the Republicans of Con- necticut, in State convention assem- bled, instruct their delegates-at-large and request their other delegates to vote at Chicago accordingly.

CIRCUS HERE
FRIDAY, MAY 81

The most attractive feature of the
average horse show is usually the ex-
hibition made by the hunters and jump
ers, and indeed when looking over the
program, more often than not it is
found that the most important. prize
money is deboted to these classes.
This season the Sells-Floto circus
which comes here on Friday, May 81,
for a one-days engagement, are bring
ing them with several high-class hunt
ers, some Of which have been especial
ly imported from Ireland, and during
the regular performance these clever
animals give very remarkable exhibit
tion of timber-topping. One of them,
a black horse called "Luckett," is a
thoroughbred, raised on the ranch Of
the late Lucky" Baldwin, near Los
Angeles, and which, with his weight
up, ran mile in 1881 over the San
Ia Anita race track. 'Luckett" was
sold because his temper became so bad
that he refused to face the barrier
and was regarded as absolutely useless
from every standpoint.
Since he has been acquired by the
Sells-Floto people, however, and un-
der Rhoda Royals skllful tutelage, he
has become one Of the most doclle
horses with the show, and jumps an
obstacle nearly seven feet high with
absolute ease. Last winter he won
several prizes in the high jumping
class at Kansas City, Denver, Louis
vile and other big horse shows.
