But News of the Disaster Recahed
the Californian Too Late.

The Leyland steamer Californian
which has just arrived at Boston
was less than 90 miles from the i'll

the latter foundered on the morning
Of April Is Capt Lord, of the Cali

the Titanic's plight, all the latter's
passengers could have been saved.
That his ship was the steamer report

signals for help, Capt. Lord denied
positively.

BRYAN MAY RUN AGAIN.
Should the Republicans Nominate
Teddy Roosevelt.

The visit of William Jennings Bry-
an 10 Washington Wednesday and
his conferences there with the va
rious party leaders, particularly in
the senate, was followed there by
widespread discussion Of the posi-
bility that the distinguished Nebras-
kan might again be the democratic
candidate for President
Mr.. Bryan frankly stated to inter
viewers that he was not a candidate
for the nomination in any sense OF
the word and that it was difficult for
him to conceive of any circumstances
under which he might be candidate
for the nomination. He said there
were plenty of other progressiYes in
the party from whom selection
could be made.
Despite these public utterances,
some democratic senators in discuss
ing their informal talks with Mr..
Bryan were inclined 10 the belief that
under certain conditions Mr.. Bryan
would not decline the nomination. In
short the impression left was that If
Col. Roosevelt should be the Repu5li-
can nominee, Mr.. Bryan would ike
once more to take the field against

REIGN OF TERROR IN MEXICO.
Murder and Arson Are Of Almost
Daily Occurrence.

Murder and: arson are crimes OF
almost daily occurrence in the ban
dit infested regions of the west
of Mexico, according to American
refugees, who arrived at San Fran
cisco, Thursday on the Pacific mail
steamer City of Panama. Women
and children of families Of American
planters ard engineers, were taken
aboard at Mazatlan, Acapulco, San
Bias and other ports.
They declared a reign Of terror
extending over almost the entire
coast and gave an account Of capture
of Acapulco by bandits after the cit
liens had been able to offer only
$4,000 Of $4,000 demanded. Mrs.
Leila Steele, of New York, wife of a
civil engineer employed on large
plantation, who boarded the vessel
at Salina Cruz, said American resi-
dents of the Salina Cruz district lived
in daily terror for their lives.
Mrs. Ida Gerton of Texas, who
boarded the vessel at Salina Cruz,
said anarchy prevailed near Lucretia,
whence she came, and that she be-
lieved many Americans were killed.
Railroad bridges have been blown
up," said Mrs. Gerton, ranch houses
farms and stores are being robbed
and their defenders shot out of pro-
lection.

sunk BY AN ICE Berg
ANOTHER STEAMER MEETS THE
FATE OF THE TITANIC
Norwegian Steam Freighter Reports
Seeing Unknown Steamer in Dis
tress. Which Went Down.

Officers of the Norwegian steam
ship Romsdel, which is in dry dock
at New York Thursday after a trip
made perious by field ice, believe
that they witnessed the sinking of a
freight ship Of about 5000 tons in
latitude ASS, longitude $40, 400
miles north Of the Titanic's grave, on
March 26. The identity of the sunk
en- ship is not known.
The Romsdel's attention was at
tracted to the distress ship soon af-
ter nightfall when the vessel began
sending up rockets showing that help
was needed. Capt. He'll ordered
that the Romsdel be headed for the
scene and his ship was run into the
ice field with as much speed as posi-
BILE, but she had not gone far before
she had six or seven holes in her hull
which allowed much water to enter
the hold.
Meanwhile the rockets continued
tc ascend from the ship IN distress,
but the Romsdel was helpless, for
she too was fast in the ice. About
midnight the rockets from the other
vessel stopped and soon after her
lights were seen to disappear be-
meath the waves. When daylight
broke those on board the Romsdel
were unable to find any trace Of the
sunken vessel.
For three days the Romsdel was a
prisoner in the ice. She finally work
ed her way out with six more holes
in her hull and her propeller blades
broken. Temporary repairs were
made but it was necessary to keep
the crew at the pumps constantly. On
her arrival at New York she was
dry-docked and is now undergoing
extensive repairs.

University, for 20 years strong
Young men have gone out over the
country. intense believers in Wood
row Wilson. The whole United
States came to admire him. And
when New Jersey, having been trust
ridden by the Republican party,
wanted candidate to lead them.
they turned to Woodrow Wilson and
nominated him as the Democratic
candidate for governor.
Then the man went before the peo-
ple face to face and promised them
popular government He promised
them reform in their election laws.
He promised to drive out bosses. He
promised them public service I'M
provements and legislative improve
ments in the school system. So fully
did he carry out his promises, IN
spite Of almost overwhelming oppo-
sition that he stood squarely by the
people and forced the legislature to
stand by the rights of the people.
If they nominate the colonel We
want somebody that can talk against
him and write against him, and l
promise you that be will make Teddy
sorry if he runs against him. There
are too many unwilling to see the
sanctity of the bench DESTROYED, un-
willing to believe that the constltu-
ton can be wiped out, unwilling to
let Mr. Roosevelt set up a government
in defiance of the constitution and IN
defiance OF law. The great mass OF
people are unwilling to abandon the
traditions of Washington and Put ev-
en- the colonel in for the balance OF
his life.
Ny fellow citizens, I have talked
longer than 7 intended, but I wanted
you to know why I have reached the
conviction I have had With the ap-
proval of Georgia on May /, the ef-
fort to defeat Governor Wilson in the
south will be given up, and he VIII
sweep all the southern states. His
nomination will be assured, and next
November We will put him in the
white house. We will place at our
head a man than whom there has
been no greater scholar, or one
with better training for responsible
ity-a man who has already shown
his power as great administrative
officer, has always used 1t to serve
the human race L present to you
our next Democratic nominee, the
next president Of the United States,
Woodrow Wilson.

BRYAN SPEAKS FOR WILSON
VIII Speak in Georgia and Florida

Courier from Washington says the
Clark men there including the speak
er himself, are disturbed a. the an
nouncement that William Jennings
R,ryan is going to Georgia and Flor
ida 10 make speeches in behalf OF
Woodrow Wilson's candidacy for the
Democratic nomination. Up to this
time the Speaker has left the field in
Georgia and Florida to Underwood
and Wilson, but he and his managers
do not see how Mr. Bryan, in view Of
Nebraska's course in instructing her
delegation for Clark, can soeak for
Wilson anywhere.

CLOSE CALL FOR Ships
STEAMER CRETON Ran INTO THE
STEAMER IROQUO
Crashed in Dense Fog at Sea But
Fortunately No Disaster Resulted
to Either Ship.

With hole in her starhoard quar-
ter five feet by ten feet and extend
| ing to within two feet of the water
line, the Clyde liner Iroquis came into
Charleston Sunday night after the
narrowest escape of her career. Dur
ing a heavy fog at II o'clock Sun
day night, eight miles east of Look
out shoals, the steamer Cretan Of the
Merchants and Miners line struck
her iron Prov into the lroquois' side,
crushing the heavy plates like paper
and smashing through a bulkhead
into the sleeping quarters between
decks. The two ships separated and
after q nexamination had been made
of the damage to the 1roquois, she
proceeded on her way. The Cretan
settled somewhat by the head after
the collision and there was some
thought of transferring her passen-
gers to the Iroquois. The hole, how
ever, was stopped with mattresses
and other material and it was decid-
ed that the ship could take care Of
herself. The Ocean Steamship liner
st. Louis stood by to render any as
sistance needed.
Despite the shock Of the collision
and the great size Of the wound that
was made in the IroQuois' side, there
was little excitement among the pas
sengers aboard the ship. Some Of
them, in fact, did not even know that
the vessel had been in collision until
after morning had come and 1t was
evident that no serious results were
to be feared. Six mea, however, oc-
cupying berths forward and on the
starboard side between decks, had
narrow escape, the beak of the Cretan
breaking through the bulkhead and
almost into their berths.
While the Iroquois Is seriously
damaged she was able to proceed to
Jacksonville under her own steam
Tuesday.
Capt. Ingram Of the Iroquois, in
his report Of collision, states simply
that there was a thick fog at the
time and the vessels were off Cape
Lookout. According to information
from other sources, the 1roquois
heard the Cretan's whistle and mis-
took it for the whistle of the Look
out lightship. AS the liner turned
to avoid the supposed lightship the
Cretan forged forward out of the fog
and struck the IroQuois.
The Cretan passed the Virginia
Capes off her way to Baltimore as
4:40 o'clock Monday afternoon. 1t
is reported that the Cretan had
hole stove in her bow three feet be-
low the water line but took on no
water. The Iroquois had hole stove
in her side near tho stern.

Crew REFUSES TO SAIL
THAT GOOD LIFE
BOATS BE PROVIDED.
Despite the Assurance OF Officers
That the Supply Of Boats Was AM
pie Seamen Kicked.

When the White Star Liner Olym.
pic, sister ship to the Titanic, was
ready to sail from Southampton
England On Wednesday for New
York, 800 fremen and engineroom
workers quit the vessel, declaring
that the collapsible boats on the
Olympic were unseaworthy. The
Olympic is lying off Ryde, Isle OF
Wight, with 1,400 passengers aboard
and no possibility Of sailing very
soon.
There were reports that some OF
the passengers had refused to sail
but for the present all remain aboard
the vessel. It also was reported soon
after the strike was inaugurated that
the company had succeeded in get
ting men to take the strikers places,
but this proved to be incorrect
AS a matter Of fact, the strike has
extended to the crew, which now de-
ciines to sail with the "Dlackleg'
fremen, who were brought aboard
and the British Seafarers' union Is
supporting the men on this decision.
Pickets are patrolling the docks to
prevent the recruiting Of 'blacklegs." )"
In an endeavor to have the strikers
return to work, Commander Clarke,
chief of the immigration Office In
Southampton, offered to demonstrate
in the Cowes roads that the boats on
the Olympic were absolutely safe.
The men were ready to listen to this
proposition, but later, 1t is learned,
declared that they would have been
ready to sail If the company had
agreed to demonstrate the seawortht-
ness Of the boats at this port. This,
in turn, the company declined to do.
Commander Clarke says that there
are forty-four lifeboats on board the
Olympic, including the collapsible
boats, and that their total seating
capacity is $500 which is largely In
excess of the total Of the passengers
and crew. While he considers wood
en- lifebcats superior, he was salts
fed with all the boats on board.
One of the stokers Of the Olympic
said: What we demand is that ev-
erv one of the lifeboats shall be a
wooden one. Personally, do not
care, as am unmarried, but many
of the men have wives and families
and their lives are as valuable as
those of the first class passengers.

STEAMER PASSES near
But PAID NO ATTENTION TO IT.
TANIC DISTRESS SIGNAL.
Officer Boxhall Tells Dramatic Story
Of Trying to Signal and Stop Pass
ing Steamer.

Two facts stand out with intensity
in the evidence adduced before the
Senatorial committee that is investi-
eating the wreck Of the Titanic and
the loss of life that attended It The
first is sworn to by Vice-President
Franklin Of the White Star line, the
other by J. 3. Boxhall, fourth officer
of the Titanic.
Franklin testified that the news OF
the sinking Of the Titanic reached
the Offices OF the White Star line in
New York between noon and 1
o'clock Monday, April Is. about ten
hours after the vessel had actually
sunk. and two hours after the Car
pathia had sent broadcast IN aerial
messages the news that she had pick
ed up all the survivors.
Franklin said that he could not
believe It true and that he took ev-
cry measure to prevent such news
becoming public until six hours Ia
ter, when absolute confirmation
came from the Captain OF the Olym-
pic, giving the number Of the res
cued and further details.
Eoxhall declared that within fiT-
teen minutes of the sinking Of the
Titanic he, with other officers, in
cludl2s Captain Smith, and also sew
eral passengers noticed the masthead
lights and red sidelight OF large
steamer, whose position, Boxhall
says, seemed to be not more than five
miles away.
Boxhall, who was fourth officer Of
the Titanic, says he sent up rockets,
used the Morse electric signal code
and did everything possible to at
tract the attention of this steamer.
Nevertheless, Boxhall maintains
this mysterious vessel drew away,
taking an oblique course that sent
her below the horizon of those on the
sinking Titanic He has no idea Of
the name OF the vessel nor to what
line she belonged.
Not the slightest whisper had
gone forth concerning what BoNhall
would testify to, and his every word
fell upon the multitude crowded IN
the marble conference room OF the
Senate building rs lightning flashes
from a clear sky.

woman was too i'll to talk and had to

lea to join her husband, S. AXIS, a
tailor who had never seen their
child. It was the AXIS infant that
was recovered by the mother On the
Carpathia after she had given it Up
as lost. The infant having been ta-
ken from the mother by a frantic
man, fell into the lap of a woman
survivor in a lifeboat as it was toss
ed over the side of the Titanic. The
mother, who tainted, was placed IN
another lifeboat.

EDITOR SHOT AND KILLED.
Murderer a Russian Crazed by the
Titanic Wreck.

At Spokane, Wash, E. H. Roth
rock, city editor of the Spokane
was shot and killed in his
editorial room by Richard Aleck, a
Russian laborer Aleck first told the
police he had been on the Titanic and
then that he had been on the Carpa-
thia and mumbled: There had been
too much printed about the disast-
er." He would give no other reason
for the crime. Aleck walked quietly
into the Chronicle local room and
asked for the editor. AS Rothrock
walked towards him, Aleck drew a
revolver and shot him in the breast.
Rothrock died within FIVE minutes.
The murderer later told the police he
was 40 years old and came to this
country four years ago
