The ma Tor said there was stu room IN
some boats which left from the port side
and ha could not understand why more
men were not taken off.
"The Carpathia steamed AL around the
scene Of the wreck and We did not see a

He said he was certain that none could

"SeyeraI who were on the upturned boat
and were rescued aud who had their feet

alive by clutching each other. Their feet
was frozen
Several Senator's asked If the fact that
there was no general alarm sounded after
the collision might account for the failure
OF many women to appear on the decks
in time for the ,ifeboats The witness
thought that probable.
Major Peuchen told the COMMITTEES h.
thouaht that if the lookouts on the Ii
tanic had had glasses the ship might
have been saved from tho collision.
