New York, April .16.-The text of a
message from the steamer Olympic, re-
porting the sinking of the Titanic and
the rescue of 675 survivors, which
reached here late last night, also ex-
pressed the opinion that 1900 lives
were lost.
Loss likely to total 1900 souls" the
dispatch said in it's concluding SEN
tence.
1t is hoped n believed here that
this is an error, unless the Titanic
had more passengers on board than
was reported. The list as given out
showed 1910 passengers and a crew
of $50, or 2,170 persons in all. De-
Quoting 675, the known saved, would
indicate a loss of 1,495 persons. The
olympic's dispatch follows:
"Carpathia reached Titanic position
at daybreak. Found boats n wreck
age only. Titanic sank about 1920 a.
m. in 41:16 N, SOFA w. All her boats
accounted for, containing about CTS
souls saved, crew and passengers in
cluded. Nearly all saved women and
children. Leyland liner California re-
manned and searching exact position of
disaster. Loss likely total 1900 souls.'
Cape Race, April 16.-The steamer
Olympic reports that the Carpathia
reached the Titanic's position at day
break yesterday, but found boats and
wreckage only. She reported that the
Titanic had sunk at about 2:20 o'clock
a. M, in latitude 41:16 north and longi-
tude 50:14 west. The message adds
that all the Titanic's boats We're ac-
counted for n about CTS souls saved,
crew and passengers, latter nearly all
women n children"
There were about 1900 persons in all,
crew n passengers, on the Titanic.
The report from the Olympic states
that the Leyland liner Californian was
remaining and searching the vicinity
of the disaster. The Carpathia, it was
stated: was returning to New York
with the survivors.
Statement by Officials.
New York, April 16.-The following
statement was given out at the White
Star line Offices:

Vice President Franklin at $40
o'clock conceded that there had been a
horrible loss of life" in the Titanic
disaster. He said hat he had M in
formation to disprove the Associated
Press dispatch from Cape Race to the
effect that only SIS of the passengers
and crew had been rescued. He said
that the monetary loss could not be

COFFEE HURTS

1t is difficult to make people believe

ANNUAL FOURTH OF JULY CELEBRATION BY !
INDIANS TO Be OPPOSED THIS SUMMER

Claiming that the Fourth of July
celebration held annually by the Wild
er Indians of the Umatilla reservation
is but a protracted orgy at which
drinking and gambling are the least
of the immoralities practiced, where
the men trade wives or several and
where young girls are ruined. Allen
Patiwa, chairman of the Umatilla
branch of the Brotherhood of North
American Indians, today sent letter
of protest to Richard c. Adams, pres
ident of the national organization,
asking him to use his Influence in Sc
curing the assistance of the commits
sioner Of Indian affairs in abolishing
or at least limiting this celebration.
The annual celebration. as 1t has
been held in the past, lasts through
several weeks and is attended not only
by many families of the local Indians
but by many from other tribes over
the northwest. 1t is held at Cayuse
where on large camping ground the
red people pitch their tepees in a
great circle. This year, under the
leadership of Poker Jim, Chiefs Uma-
pine and No Shirt, plans have been
laid for a more pretentious celebra-
ton than ever before. n A fine three
quarter-mile, race track has been con-
Istructed, few OF the members OF the
local branch OF the brotherhood vot-
ing the land for the purpose at a
meeting unattended, by, a quorum, q
chairman, or a secretary, according to
allegations made in the letter to Pres
ident Adams.
Those interested in the dictation OF
the letter, besides Patiwa, were Par
sons Motanic, Philip Jones. George
Caleb and Joe Allen, all OF whom sew
eral years ago we're leaders OF the
wilder element and prime movers in
the annual celebration. Because OF
this past connection, they claim tc
know the reality of the conditions and
Influences against which they protest
