LAX DISCIPLINE

Cleveland, O.-Telling a story of
lax discipline on board the ill-fated
liner Titanic, Louis Klein, sailor who
was rescued by the Carpathia, is held
here under arrest until he can be
taken to Washington to testify in the
senate inquiry into the disaster. The
mans story, which cross-examination
by Hugo 2. Varga, Austro-Hungarian
vice consul, failed to shake, is that
the lookout in the crows nest was
asleep when the ship struck; that the
members of the crew, on and off
watch, were intoxicated from drinking
champagne which had been passed
out to them by stewards who were
serving it to dinner party in a cabin.
and that he, an ordinary seaman, was
the only member of the crew on deck
with presence of mind sufficient to
sound the alarm bell which apprised
the third officer, who, he said, had
just returned to the bridge from din
ing in the saloon.
There was ball following ban
quet of some kind going on down be-
low when 1 went on watch at $3.50
o'clock" said Klein, "and the captain
and the officers were there with many
Of the passengers. After the party,
stewards served the champagne and
wines that were left over to the crew.
I knew that many of them were
drunk. A passenger standing at the
rail saw something dead ahead or may
be little bit to starboard. Look
quick he said, see the hill over
there followed his arm as he point
ed and l saw it was a big iceberg and
ran for the bridge. The third officer
saw me coming and yelled to me, ask
ing what was the matter. l couldn't
stop to answer. l was too excited.

nest on it and shouted to the lookout

alarm.
mot word did l hear, SO I started
up. 1t was less than minute after

to the top of the spar and found the

Praise Bravery of Captain Smith, Ma

Men Prayed and Struggled
to Get to Boats Rail.

New York City.-The Carpathia's
gang plank ratified onto the floor
of the pier exactly at 9:3S p. m.
and two minutes later the first pas
senger, Miss Elizabeth Allen of st.
Louis, walked down the plank. She
said the captain had given orders to
all on board to do no talking. She
said she had seen the Titanic go
down. The big boat went down head
first. Miss Allen is the niece of Dent
Robert, prominent resident of San
Francisco.
The work of transferring the pas
sengers had just begun when Mrs.
Eva Booth, directing head of the Sal
vation Army, and corps of her Off
GERS were conducted to the front rank
of the relief squad. One of the pas
sengers, the wife Of Jacques Futrelle,
the renowned author, said that the
Titanic went down with all her lights
burning and with the band playing
Nearer My God to Thee" She said
that the members of the crew had to
use force to separate wives from their
husbands and throw them into life
boats. When the ship struck, all the
passengers rushed on deck, but were
told to go back to their berths, as
there was no danger. An hour later
they were all ordered to reassemble
on deck. Five were buried at sea
from the Carpathia.
Two Ohio Women Safe.
Mesdames Caroline and Lilly Bon
nell of Youngstown, o., were the next
to walk down the plank. One of the
Ohio women said:
We were asleep In our berths when the
Titanic crashed Into the Iceberg. We
Immediately rushed on deck, only stopping
to throw on coat over our niehtgowns.
The night was bright and starlight. We
could see the crowds of passengers fall
Ing down the stalrways, while the off,
GERS sought to reassure them Of their
safety. Major Butt and Colonel Astor
stood by the ifeboats bravely and helped
the women. They did not think the boat
was going to sink. The Titanic kept sett-
ling lower and lower, however. Then
word came that the engine room was
flooded. There was some shooting.
Mrs. Astor Unable to Talk.
Mrs. John Jacob Astor came down
the gang plank with halting steps.
She was fully dressed, wearing black
astrakan coat. She seemed to be on
the verge of complete collapse, and
half dozen men rushed to her.
Asked for a statement, she said:
can't! can't! II was horrible!

ly and Had Nothing to Do With
the Running of the Late
Queen of the Seas.

bodieS, some OF which are iden-
tifiabIe, have been recovered by the
cabIeshiP Mackay-Bennett, according
to wireless report received here.
The report received here states that
several of the bodies were decom-
posed beyond the possibility of recog-
milton, and as they carried nothing by
which they could be Identified, they
were cast into the sea again. The re-
port does not give the names of those
identified.
New York City.-Before leaving
for Washington ]. Bruce Ismay, the
vice president of the International
| Mercantile Marine Co., issued long
statement in which he denied in toto
against him since the Titanic went
down. Mr.. Ismay says that many of
his actions have been misinterpreted
and misconstrued. He says that dur
ing the voyage he enjoyed no privl-
leges other than those allowed first
| cabin passengers; that he saw the
captain rarely and that he had moth
ing to do with the running of the boat.
Regarding the kilograms sent order
ing the crew to be hurried back to
England, Mr.. Ismay says that his sole
desire was to give the men COM
| Portable and early passage to their
homes. He had no desire to get them
away from the jurisdiction of the Uni
ted States. In fact, he says, he well
comes an investigation.
"The only information / ever re-
ceived on the ship that other vessels
had sighted ice," said Mr.. Ismay in
his statement, twas by wireless
message received from the Baltic,
which have already testified to. This
was handed to me by Captain Smith
without any remark, as he was pass
ing me on the passenger deck on the
afternoon of Sunday, April IA. I read
the telegram casually and put it in
my pocket. At about ten minutes
past 7. while / was sitting in the
smokeroom, Captain Smith came in
and asked me to give him the mes
sage received from the Baltic in or
der to post it for the information of
the officers. / handed it to him and
nothing further was said by either OF

tion l had received had aroused any
apprehension in my mind-which it
did not-I should not have ventured
to make any suggestion to a COM

ence. The responsibility for the navi,
cation of the ship rested solely with
him.

Philadelphia:

robed and was In my bunk, when there
was a terrible crash. The boat qulvered
and the lights went out. In the darkness
rushed on deck, almost naked. There
seemed to be thousands fighting and

got the storage batteries going, and this
gave us little light. Captain Smith was
the biggest hero | ever saw. He stood
on the bridge and shouted through a
meeaphone, trying to make himself heard.
The crew obeyed his orders as quickly
as could be expected. Five minutes after
the crash everybody seemed to have gono
insane. Men and women fought, bit and
scratched to be In line for the lfeboats.
