by the steamship, Carpathia, rested
today. They had been picked up at
sea alter taking to the boats when
1t became assured that the Titanic
had received her death blow, and
although suffering from shock and
exposure, many were able to discuss
with intelligence the details Of the
catastrophe which cost the lives of
1895 passengers, officers and crew.
Interest centered around the in
yestigatiun, which 1t was announced
would be inaugurated by a commit

Smith, of Michigan, before the day
ended.
1t was announced that ]. Bruce

Titanic, who was among the
saved, together with four of the
ships officers who were also saved,
would appear before the committee
to give their version OF the disaster.
Senator's Smith and Newlands con-
lerred with Ismay and Vice Presi-
dent Up. A. S. Franklin last night
but refused to make public what Is
may had said, Senator Smith saying
that he preferred the public should
hear ismay's statement from his
own lips.
Franklin declared that the White
Star Line welcomed any govern
mental inquiry and If the Senate in
quiry resulted in adoption of meas
ures calculated to prevent recur-
renee of similar disasters, his COM
pany will be only too thankful.
"Ismay win not shirk his duty.
nor will any other officer of the
company, which will cooperate with
the committee in every possible
way" declared Franklin.

TRUSTS ARE BEHIND
COLONEL. ROOSEVELT
AS Shown by Big Sums They
Dump Into Vote Buy
ing Fund.

WASHINGTON, D. c., April -
When the United States Senate in
yestigated the charges made against
Senator Stephenson, of Wisconsin.
it found that his expenditures I'M the
campaign before the primary
amounted to a little less than $500
per vote. 1t now develops that the
campaign of the interest of Colonel
Roosevelt before the New York pri-
maries. which elected delegates to
the national convention at Chicago,
required the expenditure of $500
per vote. 1t was the friends of COL
onel Roosevelt who attacked the
Wisconsin methods most severely.
Campaign committees in New York
have just filed with the secretary of
state at Albany certified statements
of receipts and disbursements. The
county committee used
s5,5S5.64, which was furnished by
the Taft League, and the Roosevelt
League collected $50, 200. More
than 10000 votes were cast for
President Taft. so that the expendi-
ture per person by the Taft Nation
al League was approximately sixteen
cents. Colonel Roo1eveltas cam
paign managers spent S59,126.75 to-
get $1,000 Roosevelt votes, prac-I
tically $500 vote.
There is food for thought in AM
examination of the contributors to-
the Roosevelt fund, all OF which
could not have been expended for
the legitimate uses of the cam
paign. George w. Perkins, who
gave $4,000, was the organizer Of
the Harvester Trust, is now an Of
fetal of the Steel Trust, and was for
many years prominently connected
with the banking house OF ]. p.
Morgan and Company. 1t was Per-
kins, who, as director of the New
York Life Insurance Company, con-
tributed $4,000 of the funds of the
company to the Roosevelt campaign
in 1904. This, like the record of
the present campaign contributions.
is official, for 1t was brought to light
by the Hughes investigating COM
mittee, as the result of which Mr..
Perkins was indicted.
Frank A. Munsey, who is the as
sociate OF Mr.. Perkins in the Steel
Trust pool, gave up $4,000 also.
and another contributor is Alexa1-
der S. Cochran, an associate OF
William L. Ward, OF Westchester
county, and the largest stockholder
in the greatest carpet factory in
America. Cochran knows all
about Schedule K and where it hits
the carpet manufacturer.

kins and A. Foster Higgins, both
