Report of Titanic Probers Fixes
No Blame Duff Gordon
Bribery Story Unfounded.

LONDON, July S0.-Excessive speed
is held esponsible for the Titanic dis
aster in the report of the British com
mission of inquiry which was presented
in Scotch Drill hall today
J. Bruce Ismay, managing director
of the White Star Line, is absoved
from blame for jumping into a life
boat and saving his life, While hundreds
of other passengers went to their doom.
There is no censure of the conduct of
Captain Smith of the lost liner, in the
report In driving his ship at high
speed through the ice region he was
merely following the general custom
of shipmasters, the report states.
Practically the only adverse criticism
in the report is visited upon Captain
Lord of the Leyand liner Californian,
who might have saved many, if not all
of the lives that We're lost, the commits
sion finds
Lord Mersey presided when the COM
mission was called to order and person
ally read the conclusions of the body
Ship Properly Differed.
The loss of the Titanic was due to
a collision with an iceberg brought
about by the excessive speed at which
the ship was navigated, the report
cered and was supplied with the proper
charts"
The commission found that there had
been no boat drills aboard the Titanic
and recommended that the board Of
trade formulate rules requiring boat
drills and boat musterings The COM
mission found that all of the officers did
their work well and with no thought
of their own safety The wireless in
stallation was effective. but there Were
not enough operators. Strict discipline
Of both passengers and crew during the
lowering of the boats were found
lsmay Exonerated
OF the conduct of ]. Bruce lsmay. the
commission states that it can not agree
with those critics who held that his
position as managing director imposed
on him the moral duty to remain aboard
until the vessel sank.
IF he had not jumped into a boat
another life would have been lost" the
commission declared
Captain Smith should not have
given lsmay the ice telegram, the re-
port states. After getting it. lsmay
should nor have kept it quiet How
ever, this did not influence the naviga-
tion Of the ship"
The commission finds that The third
class passengers We're fairly treated
and it commends Captain Rostron and
the crew of the Cunard liner Carpa =
thia for their rescue work
Lord Mersey declared the commission
was convinced that the liner California
saw the Tuanic's distress signals and
said She should have pushed through
the ice as fast as sh, could Without un-
due risk to the Titanie's assistance.

Kansas City Market Letter
tBy J. A. Rickart, Correspondent,

Kansas City Stock Yards, July go, 1912. The bear campaign which buyers had been prosecut- ing with vigor and success for ten days began to totter the midle of last week, and its sandy foundation allowed it to fall with a crash by the end of the week. Moderate supplies of cattle at all the markets proved too much for it. Prime cattle had recovered all their loss by the end of the week, and other classes, including pasture cattle, were on the road to recovery. Stockers and feeders did not re- gain any of their loss last week, but most of it has been put back to-day, and dealers say last week saw the low spot on them, par ticularly on decent feeders weigh ing 900 lbs. and upwards. The supply today is I2,ooo cattle here, and fairly liberal elsewhere, market stronger all around, and con siderable hope in the atmosphere respecting future prices. Missouri cattle brought So.75 today, 10 cents more than anything has brought this year. Top in Chi cago today is So.75 also. Saline county came to the front on grass cattle today with drove at S8. 30 143o pounds weight. Others from that section brought $500, and HOO pound plain steers sold at S6. so. Chase county sent in some grassers that brought $500, and other lighter ones at s. 50. Morris county had some SS. 70 steers here today, but the feature of the market was the sale of some 1922 pound steers from Greenwood county, brought up from Texas this spring, at S7.8o. Greenwood county did not extend herself other wise today, stopping at S8.2o for grassers. Supply of quarantine cattle today I3o cars, market steady, following an advance of 20 to 30 cents last week, sales at S4,25 S6.35 on steers, 3.75 to $50 for cows and heifers. Stockers range from 400 to GAO, feeders Goo to 700. Sheep and lambs are 25 to 40 cents higher than the low time recently, best spring lambs today 7.35, Arizona springs 7.25. Twelve hundred Utah feed ing lambs, 4o pounds, sold at 500 last Thursday, good feeders worth up to $50, wethers 4.5o, top ewes 4.25.
