BELIEVED STORSTAD
HAD RIGHT OF WAY
First Officer Of Collier That Sank
Empress of ireland Testi-
fies at Inquiry.

QUEBEC, June 1.-THE captain and the
first officer of the collier Storstad testified
today at the Empress of Ireland wreck
inquiry and contradicted in several par
ticulars the statement made On the
stand yesterday by Capt. Kendall of the
lost liner. The first officer Alfred Tuf:-
enes, who was in command of the collier
when the collision occurred. insisted that
there was no explosion and no sheet OF
fame from the side of the Empress when
she was struck as Capt Kendall had de-
scribeG. Tuftenes Swore that all he saw
We're sparks. such as might have been
expected from the impact of steel on
steel
The first officer admitted that he had
not obeyed instructions in failing TO call
his captain from below when the fog shut
down just before the collision. He said
he believed that the Storstad had the
right of way and that he was entitled to
keep his course at reduced speed, even
though he had signaled previously to the
Empress that he had stopped He blamed
the current for swinging the ship. 1t
was the speed of the Empress. he claimed
which caused the Storstad's bow to sink
twelve feet into the side of the passenger
vessel.

GILMORE SPURNS sWINDLE.
Congressman Approached With Old
Spanish Prisoner Fraud.

Edward Gilmore. a country provision
merchant of Massachusetts. today receiv-
ed a communication from a Spanish pris-
cuer offering share in a sixty-thousand-
dollar fortune which is alleged to be
hidden in locked and ironbound trunk
in Madrid. All that Nr. Gilmore must do
is TO put up a large sum of money and
so to Madrid. where he will be able to
find the Spanish prisoner, one Arturio
Grano.
&, However, il seems that Edward Gilmore
has an alternate capacity as representa-
tive in Congress from Massachusetts. In
his capacity as country storekeeper.
which seemed to hold out so alluring a
prospect to the well known Spanish pris-
oner game. he consulted himself as a
wise and farseeing congressman and de-
termined that he would allow the Spanish
fortune to rest in its old trunk.
In his capacity a representative he
vas inclined to take the matter to tee
Tepa rtmen. OF Justice but in his capacity
as pror sion merchant he thought better

Courts Opinion.

In the course of his opinion Judge Sulz-
berger said:
THE defendant thinks that under the
circumstances the decedent's death was
an unavoidable accident.
The term unavoidable accident has
been, of late. much abused. 1t seems
often to be applied to the result of the
collision rather than to it's cause. This
error has been favored by the powerful
body of opinion which receives with hor-
ror the notion that class of persons.
many of them well endowed with worldly
goods and bearing good reputation for
honesty and good citizenship may be
guilty of criminal conduct
