CONTINENTAL CODE
is USED BY NAVY
Department Denies that Govern
ment OPERATOR Use other Codes
Men Nay Be COurt-martiaIed.

While awaiting reponts from the scout
cruisers Chester and Salem concerning
the efforts Of the radioteIegraph opera
tors on those vessels to communicate
with the steamer carpathia last We'd
nesday and Thursday. naval authorities
took, occasion yesterday 10 make en-
phatic denial that the continental Morse
code is not used in the navy. as claimed
by the Titanic and Carpathia operators.
The continental Morse code was pre-
scribed as the oficial and standard naval
code nearly seven years ago. II is de-
cIared that this code has remained stan
dard ever since.
Use Of the continental Morse code was
prescribed in special order No 50, No
vember Is. 1907. by v. H Metcalf. Secre-
tary of the Navy. This order follows:
Beginning January !, 1905, wireless
telegraph operators In the naval service
shall be required to use the cosainental
Morse code in sending all messages, ON
cial or private. except where specific
authority to use other codes may be
given by the commander-in-chief, squad
ron or division commander, or command
ing officer.
Wireless operators may be encouraged
to learn other codes but they must
first become proficient in the continental
Morsc ccde.
commanding officers and operators in
charge OF wireless stations shall afford
operators every possible opportunity to
practice the continental Morse code, un-
I'll their proficiency in that code is as
sured, allowing them. II possible. to rig
practice apparatus on board ship, or, IN
the case Of shore stations. ashore"
A pamphlet OF instructions for wireless
telegraph stations was issued in special
order No. IS. April a, 1911. by Secretary
OF the Navy Meyer. These instructions
were Incorporated in the regulations, and
Il is officially declared they have been
religiousiy without any known
exception.
In veiw OF the strict and specific regu-
lations as to the use OF wireless It was
stated officially yesterday that the oper-
ators Of the Chester and Salem doubt
less will be concentrated II the state
ments of Operator Bride are found to be
true. They would be subject to charges
of disobedience Of orders In not using
The continental code and of Ineficiency
IN case OF an emergency II they could not
receive or send by either code.

the discomfort OF those four days with
no uncertain emphasis to-day.
The newest OF the French line steam
ships was scheduled to sail rom Havre
at 1 O'Clock on Saturday n week ago,
and people from Paris who had their
tickets to sail on her went down on the
boat train fearing that the dock strike
might tic up their ship. When they
were on board, however. reassurances
were at once given by the ships officers.
according to the story told to-day by
one of the Inflated sixty.
The France did not sail at I o'clock,
nor at any other hour on that Saturday.
Sunday came and the big ship did not
cas-, of her lines. Here Is the story
OF what then occurred during the next
three days as one of the marooned pas
sengers gave 1t to an Evening World
reporter at the dock:
