TITANIC,S BOTTOM
BROKEN FROM TOP

CHICAGO. April 1s.-Captain Charles
Campbell, veteran seaman attached to
the. government hydrographic office here
tonight said that longitudinal stress"
on the big boat probably caused the sud-
den sinking when the Titanic struck the
iceberg.
There Is no doubt in my mind that
longitudinal stress caused the sudden
plunge" the captain said, when the
impact occurred one end of the boat was
turned upward, naturally. The riyets of
the bottom then We're broken. and IN
my opinion. the entire bottom OF the boat
was severed from the rest OF the craft
II Is mistaken Idea that slow boats
are less perlious ones than fast steamers
he said. Fast ships are much the safer
a slow boat striking the Iceberg, as In
the case Of the Titanic. would have met
the same fate and there would have been
no difference in the results
The Titanic apparently struck the ice
berg mile or more away from the Ice
that was visible" he continued, I'm
large tceberes II Is nearly always the
case that large portion of the Ice is
covered with water. SoUce section is
visible. but a portion mile or more in
length may have been under water The
steamer evidently struck the submerged
portion, unmindful Of any impending
danger"

to search for passengers who might still
DE alive clinging to the wreckage OF

1t is recalled that when the French
liner La. Bourgone foundered off Sable Is
land In July. 1890, there was evidence that
the passengers were afoat on life RATS
for several days and that when the
steamer was sent out from Halifax ten
days after the disaster by relatives of
the missing people, scores OF bodies were
found floating for miles around where
the ship sank. The dispatch Of the re-
lief steamer VIII also establish the facts
regarding the sinking of the Titanic.
The Mackay- Bennett is especially equip

utilized TO locate the wreck OF the Titanic.
Mariners state that the depth of the
water in the vicinity would be a mile
or more, The Titanic would not have
sunk through damage to her bow alone,

the bottom or the side.
Captain James a. Farquhar, the veteran
navigator. who has Just returned from

season Is an exceptional one not only
for the immense quantities of heavy ice,
but for northwest gales. which have
prevailed during the winter and driven
