COLLIER STORSTAD IS BLAMED FOR
WRECK OF EMPRESS OF IRELAND
IN WHICH 1000 LOST THEIR LIVES
Report of Wreck Commission Made PubicThrd Officer Tuf-
tenes Collier Held Responsible for Dis
aster-Empress Discipline Good

1T is not to be supposed that this
disa ster was in any way attributable
to any special characteristics of the
st. Lawrence waterway 1t was a dis
aster which might have occurred In
the Thames. in the Clyde, in the Mer-
sey or elsewhere in similar circum
stances.
Such is the conclusion at which
we have arrived on the question who
was to blame for the disaster. But
the question of much greater interest
and Importance remains to be consid
cred, viz: Why the ship sank so
quickly and what steps, If any, can
be taken to prevent the terrible con-
sequences which 30 often follow such
disasters
THE main difference between the
two stories (of the officers of the En-
press and the Storstad respectively
is to be found in the description of
the way in which the two vessels were
approaching each other at the time
the Empress of Ireland changed her
course after having obtained an offing
from Father Point.
Good Discipline on the Empress
The report found that there was no
lack of discipline on board the EN-
press and that the Empress complied
with all the regulations regarding boat
equipment, watertight doors, etc.
To prevent such loss of life In the
future the commission made these
suggestions:
81. That in foggy weather all wat
ertight doors and portfolios below the
top of the water-tight bulkheads be
closed. Preferably they should be
closed all the time between sunset
and sunrise.
20. That it might be desirable to
consider whether RATS could not be
placed in such a position on the up
per deck that they would float auto
matically on the water as the ship
sank"

and the hearing Saturday was in re-

was evident that the men did not care

them in the usual way. This is the
largest seizure ever made in the coun-
