 CORONERSJURY
Srtcral Nugget Service.

Srtcidl Nugget Service.
 RIMOUSKI, June 1.-Captain Ken dall testifying before coroners JurJ stated that the disaster was due to Captain Anderson of the a Storstadt failing 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 escap. from the ship.
 Captain Kendall testified that the Storstadt struck the Empress at ful speed while his ship was practically motionless and 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 pleadings.
 The testimony of Capt Kendall was far examined.

RMOUS SKI, May 3l- Everything indicates that hundreds of the pas- sengcrs of the Empress of lrrlan never reached the decks of the Nessc. no' comprehcnding the danger and p"rished in their rooms.

 While the Storstadt still hung in tn, gap which she had made in the side of the Empress there was some chance of escape.

 If the Storstadt had kept her pro- peller 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 to save most of his passengers.

Laurier Uurges Investigation of Elm
 press Disaster.

OTTAWA. May 3u. The Empress of Ireland disaster has created a pro- found sensation here and Lauriel urges that a thorough investigation be made by the government.
 It is pointed Du. that no disaster of such q 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- ton of other ships navigating those waters at that time. II is yet to he ascortaned 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 o1 fog signals which are usual and re- qured under such conditions. That there was criminal negligence on the part of some onr there is not much room for doubt \ sweeping nvesti- gation will certainly be made and an attempt made tp. ascertain the true facts and place the blame where il justly belongs.

 RIMOUSkI, May 30.-The wharves here are being used as temporary place to receive the bodies which are being brought here as they are re- covered by the many searching parties near the scene of the Empress disas- ter and along the sea shore where many bodies are coming ashore.
 Three hundr sd bodies are now lying in the sheds of the wharf here. A more gruesome sight could scarcely be imagined than is presented by the long line of dead who died in the strength of their manhood and wo- manhood, many of whom are torn md bruised and with broken limbt, showing the terrible effects of the ex- plosion of the steamers boilers. One case was particular pathetic. 1t was that of a mother who in death stliI has her infant tightly clasped to her breast.
 Those who have viewed the bodies as they were lying In long lines in the sheds of the wharf say that 1t is a picture that will remain with them through life. Many left tho shed sob ping and many strong men were sick ened when they viewed the bodies which gave mute evidence of the ter TOTS of those few minutes before the ship took it's final plunge and as If in mercy ended the moments of horror.
 Captain Kendall came ashore here and is much downcast and apparently overwhelmed by the great loss of lives and said that he wished that he had gone to the bottom with the ship.
