7 HAVE been asked whether 1t is pos
sible that the Titanic Is now COM
pleting Its ill-fated trip to New York
at the bottom Of the ocean. 1t has been
suggested that the steamship has not yet
reached the bottom OF the Atlantic, but Is
now floating. some fathoms below the sur
face, unable to sink any further on &C
count Of the increased density OF the wa
ter at that great depth.
Based upon this belief that the Titanic
could never reach the bottom because of
the great density of the water. II Is con-
tended that the vessel must now be near
Ing New York as a result OF the strong,
.. p sea current which flows from Labra-
dor, This deep ocean current being
colder than the temperature of the sur
face water In which the Titanic sank nat
urally flows at greater depth, and 1t i5
therefore natural TO ask whether this cur
rent would be strong enough TO sweep
along the gigantic vessel lying suspended
IN the dense water.
NY own personal belief Is that the IT,
tanic sank right to the bottom. but be-
cause the other theory Is advanced by
men Of intelligence 1t is worth while go
ing into the matter somewhat fully.
do not know the exact recorded depth
OF the Atlantic at the spot where the
Titanic sank. but it is said TO be some
1000 fathoms, or a good bit over two
niles. II Is probable that the vessel
reached the bottom in iess than half an
hour. but may possibly have taken an hour
TO get there. The reasons for this con-
ciusion ! will now give,
