Mr.. Bonynge explained the organization

He said the present monetary system
Of the country is cursed by seventeen
defects Of which he mentioned three:

grsvitate to New York. encouraging
speculation. Second. failure to provide
legal methods whereby banks can CO.

20 per cent Of the banking resources Of
the world. but not great enough TO pre-
vent America from calling on the Bank
Of England during the panic Of 1901
Third, non-elasticity Of bond-sccured

London Journals
Demand Vengeance
For Lost Lives

LONDON, April l7.-vengeance for
the 1882 persons that went down to
death in the sea with the ice-crushed
Titanic was demanded today by prac-
tically every London journal. The de-
plorable lack OF life-saving facilities
aboard the gigantic liner has aroused
widespread Indignation, and there was
today a universal demand for a drastic
Investigation OF the conditions under
which all modern transatlantic steam
ers conduct their desperate speed COM
petition to cut a few hours from the
sailing time between Europe and
America.
Editorially the newspapers demand
that the speed mania be stopped, that
the dangerous northerly course. where
the Titanic meet disaster, be deserted.
and the longer, but safer. southern
route be followed throughout the year.
The revision of the board OF trade
regulations as to life-saving facilities
was also demanded.
The White Star line officials admitted
the Titanic carried but twenty hfeboats
in her davits These boats had q ca
pacity of $40 passengers, and from the
list of survivors II was apparent that
one or more Of the boats was disabled
In the collision. or they were not filled
to capacity in the scramble TO leave the
sinking ship. Besides the lifeboats the
Titanic carried a number Of coiiapsibie
RATS. none of which were launched, Ac-
cording to the number rescued.

Officials Continue
Their Secret Tactics

NEW YORK, April 1.-THE peculiar
secretive tactics adopted by the White
Star line since the accident to the
Titanic continued today when, after
giving out a supplementary list of the
rescued, with the announcement that 1t
had been received by wireless, the
company denied that 1t had so been re-
ceived. The general passenger agent
said II was compiled by checking up the
data that was received yesterday and
which had been relayed to land by the
Olympic.
This followed a demand that infor-
nation be made public regarding the
condition of the survivors on the Car
pathia all of whom are known to have
suffered greatly from exposure before
being rescued
I'VE are not in communication with
the Carpathia and have not been since
Yesterday" said the line officials. The
result has been bitter criticism, espe-
cially in view of the knowledge that
among those saved is J. Bruce Ismay,
managing director of the line.
His presence on the Carpathia was be-
lieved by many to be responsible for the
failure of the Carpathia to send the de-
tails of the wreck. There was also
much criticism among relatives who
had lost loved ones because Ismay had
not remained with the ship, but the of
ficers of the line claimed that he had
gone with the boats because 4 was

CHESTER REPORTED OFF NANTUCKET.

The Chester, sent by the Navy De-

possible, was reported 200 miles east Of
Nantucket Shoals Lightship at o'clock
this morning, according to a bulletin is
sued by the department at noon. 1t
Is denied that the Chester is in COM
munication with the Carpathia.
The bulletin follows: "At o'clock
this morning the Salem was in latitude
3s degrees 81 minutes north, longitude
II degrees 4S minutes west, headed for
Nantucket Shoals Lightship at fifteen
knots speed. The Chester received de-
partment's instructions to endeavor to
intercept the Carpathia before 8 o'clock
last night, being then near Nantucket
Shoals light vessel, and 1t is supposed
that the Chester then started eastward
at as high a speed as was practicable.
"The Chester should have been 200 to

An examining physician for one OF

made tho astonishing statement that
the reason why so many applicants for

He states that, judging from Ais own
experience and reports from druggists

1t is stated at the department that all
information received will be given out
promptly to the public and that public
news service Is the chief purpose of
the steps that the department has taken
to get in communication with the Car
pathia.
Do Not Wish Convoy.
Assistant Secretary Bailey of the
Treasury Department. has received word
from Cunard officials that they do not
wish a revenue cutter convoy for the
Carpathia, because the cutters could
not keep up with the speed of the Eg
vessel and their convoy would delay the
liner, which will pull in late under the
best conditions. In view of this mos
sage, the plan to send the cutters out
has been held up until the President has
further conference with the steamship
officials. The three cutters are in readi.
ness to go out, waiting only telegraphic
orders from Captain Commander Bert.
