 RIMOUsKI, June 1.-Captain Ken dali testifying before coroners Jur; stated that the disaster was due to Captain Anderson of the Storstadt falling to observe the whistle signals from the Empress. Captain Kendall said that the Empress whistled sig nals were sounded continually to give warning of her position to any ship in her vicinity and that these signals were not observed by Captain Ander- son.
 He also stated that the failure tt hold the nose of the Storstadt in the hole which had been made in Empress side prevented the escape of the people who otherwise would have had ample time In which to make their escape frotn the ship.
 Captain Kendall testified that the Stosstadt struck the Empress at ful. speed while his ship was practically zssessnass1 aX6 that the captain of the storstadt backed away when he should have kept the whole plugged by keep ing full speed ahead. He stated that he plead with Captain Anderson to keep the hole in the ship plugged but to save his own ship he ignored his pleedfngs.

 RIMOUsK. May sl.-Everythins indicates that hundreds of the pas sengers of the Empress of lrelani never reached the decks of the vessel. as many waited to dress themselves not comprehenAipg the danger. and perished in their rcoms. All accounts agree in that Captain Kendall bore himself like a true sailor as long as the ship stood under him and only did he leave his Lost when the shiL sank from under him or rather did the post leave him as he was still on tue bridge when the ship was seen tc take it's final plunge to the bottom oi ths ssa- '..- .-.--,.474 ...
 While the Storstadt stiil hung in the gap which she had made in the side of the Empress there was some chance of escape.

To the great aston ishment of Captain Kendall the cap- tain of the 6torstadt either drought Ignorance whine is hardly possible. or from cowardice, which Is most likely against the protests of the captain of the Empress deliberately backed away and disappeared in the darkness oi the night.
 If the storstadt had kept her pro- pelIer going and thus kept the hole in the side of the Empress plugged there is no doubt but that the Elm press would have been kept afioat long enough to have enabled the captain te save most of his passengers.

pS848 'bsSE8eS
 OTTAWA, May so.-rhe Empress ot Ireland disaster has created a pro- found sensation here and LAurier urges that a thorough investigation be made by the government.
 It is pointed ou. that no disaster of such a nature Is possible without gross negligence upon the part of some one or more persons. The ships ought to have been in close touch by means of their wireless CT they should have been notified from shore of the posi- tion of other ships navigating those waters at that time. It Is yet to be ascertained how 1t was that the collier could have approached the Empress in q heavy fog and not have received and given warning by the blowing of fog signals which are usual and re- ouired under such conditions. That there was crimin,l negligence on the part of some one there is not much room for doubt. A sweeping investi. gation will certainly be made and ax attempt made to ascertain the true facts and place the blame where Il justly belongs.

These figures are thought to be correct and will not be much f at all changed by future investigations as it is thought but few more bodies will be recovered and those missing are thought to be at the bottom of the ocean with the ship as many ars supposed to have been unable to make their escape after the boiler explosion. which is sup posed to have shut off all avenues for reaching the decks by those who es- caped death by the shock itself.
