A report that the Partisan had picked

about 10 O'Clock on Monday morning
from the Carpathia," said Operator
Sutherland. When he was asked Just
what this message from the Carpathia
was the wireless operator replied that
he could not reveal 1t. He said Ii was
confidential in nature and intended only

There had been a theory advanced
that berg of the size that could send
the Titanic to destruction might on a

New York was in mourning today.
Flags on every building, and on steam

ton of some of the saved on the Car
pathla passed from person to person.
None could be confirmed, hut persons
familiar with the situation admitted
that there was reason to believe they
were well founded. These tender wom-
en- and children, most of them insult

several hours. Then there was the
shock of the awful realization that

in this tragedy of the sea. has herself
most remarkable history. She has
been reclaimed from the bottom of

Hams succeeded, had made a thrillingly
heroic run from outside Chebucto Head

smack up against his dock with a shin
crippled in a collision with the Albania.
There were 200 passengers aboard the
Partisan. No sooner had she been cleft
to her wharf and all the passengers got

crew to leap for the wharf. The
