CARPATHIA READY
TO RESUME TRIP
Ambulance Of Sea Is Being Pre-
pared To Go To Medi-
terranean.

NEW YORK. April 19-Grim. misty
silence today shrouded the Carpathia,
ambulance of the sea, as she lay at
her dock, her work of rescue done.
Where last night women insane with
horror voiced their anguish in hideous
shrleks today soft-footed sailornen
calmly prepared the Carpathia for her
interrupted Mediterranean tour on
which she will start again this after
noon.
Passengers, captain and crew OF the
Carpathia relieved of their burden OF
rescue, slept late today. All were worn
and weary bv five days Of caring for
men and women. which reached the cli-
max In the task of getting the stricken
survivors ashore.
1t was we'll into this morning before
the last of the more than seven hun
dred Titanic survivors left the Car
pathia. They were the steerage passen-
gers and cared for by charitable organi-
cations they were taken to the city
lodging house.
The Cunard line was extremely
anxious to get the Carrathia under way
again as soon as possible, and although
orders had been issued by the Govern
ment officials to allow no one on the
pier a score Of huge drays, loaded with
supplies waited at the gates shortly
after dawn. Captain Rostron. after a
conference with the officials of the line,
had decided that he could have his ship
prepared to sail again at 4 o'clock this
afternoon, and every effort was made to
assist him.
To this end all Of the survivors, even
those seriously injured or i'll, were taken
hof ho nia rln hA 0h
No one 5ut the passengers and crew
Of the Carpathia remained aboard.
When the pier opened all on board the
rescue ship organized buying parties to
replace the wardrobes Of passengers and
crew who had stripped themselves to
clothe the almost naked survivors pick
ed up in the icy seas.
The landing of the Carpathia, last
scene In one Of the worlds great trag-
edies, followed no playwright's rules
In the staging Of its drama Of broken
hearts.
Hundreds Are Silent.
A little group Of people-perhaps 3OO
possibly 4O0-was drawn up around the
canopied gangplank. Up and down the
huge Cunard pier were other hundreds
of men and women, standing silent, or
oonversing on Indifferent things.
A little, forid man. chewing a cigar
nervously, stood behind the line of GUS
tom house officers that had formed to
give room for the survivors to pass the
crowd.
Il have five on board" he was saying
II don't know II they're all alive-I
can't tell. They've taken their names
off the lists and put them on again"
The chugging of a tugboat sounded
from out in the North river.
The little forid man went white.
MY God!' he said.
1t was the only exclamation from that
straining group.
The churning Of the tug now was
clearly audible. Only the foot or two

was warped into her berth. In the
outer darkness no one countenance was
distinctly visible. Other lighted cigars
glowed In the mass of humanity on the
boat. .l ,,
"I guess there are lots of them still
able to smoke" began a man, and then
stopped: - ,.o,,,.o, ;. - .,,oo

At last the gangplank swung aboard.
Pier Carefully Cleared. a...
The pier had been carefully arranged
In alphabetically designated sections,
where friends might await the pitiful
procession. Small regard was paid to
these. Customs officers tenderly thrust
before them couples, groups OF reunited

locked about necks, sobbing dry sobs

thought that the public sarcely cared
to see another child heroine on the

BOARD OF HEALTH SHORT
ON RUNNING EXPENSES
Needs $4,000 to Garry on Work
This Year.

Finding that 1t will require SS. 1860
to pay the expenses of the Board of
Health until January l, that BODY has
determined to ask the finance COM
mittee of the Common Council for
that amount. David B. Chandler said
the appropriation received was s1s Oo0
less than was asked for, which ac-
counts for the shortage of funds.
Through a report made by Chair
man Wrightson, of the hospital COM
mittee, in regard to contracting with
the American District Telegraph Com
pany for installing night watch and
fire alarm signal service at the CITY
Hospital, the board became aware
that 1t had no power to make any
contracts, except through the Com
mon Council =
Mr.. Wrightson said that he had
been told that the matter would have
to be submitted to the Common
Council.
The commissioner finally cleared
the situation by making it plain
that the law department would
be able to determine the functions Of
the board and that nothing could be
done until a final report had been
received. Action was deferred pend
ing a decision of the Council.

FEE SYSTEM FOR CITY
HOSPITAL NOW PLANNED
Effort May Be Made to Revise
Charter.

The Board of Health will make an
effort to establish a fee system at
the City Hospital, whereby patients
who are able to assist in defraying
the expenses of the institution will
be asked to do so.
The matter was brought up for
discussion by Commissioner Timothy
F. Foyle, who advocated the estab-
lishment of such a system.
Health Officer Chandler declared
that according TO the charter only
INDECENT poor may be received at the
institution. An effort had been made
some ten years ago to establish
fee system at the hospital, he said.
but it was not successful because
it was believed that the place might
become overcrowded with "pay pa
tients.'

ment by DR.. Meeker and DR.. War
rem, Chairman Herold was authorized
to appoint a committee to take un
the question of having the charter
