as the capacity of each lifeboat. some
500 or 1900 passengers have been
transferred.
Latest reports indicate that the
transference is being carried on safe
ly. The sea is smooth and the wealth
er calm. 1t is probable that all pas
sengers of the Titanic are safe While
badly damaged, the Titanic still is
afloat and is reported to be making
her way toward Halifax under her
own steam. The Titanic is the larg-
est steamer ever built. She is SS2
feet long and has 46,S2S tons displace-
ment. She was launched last May

Allan company, which sailed from
Glasgow for Halifx on April 6, is al
