ing papers in commenting editorially
on the disaster call for thorough in
vestigation as to whether the bulk
heads were closed, and, If so, how was
1t that the most modern system of
watertight compartments failed to
keep the ship from sinking?
The claim for the Empress of Ire
land will be the heaviest suffered by
the Lloyds underwriters since the
sinking of the Titanic. 1t is expected
that the disaster Will give a serious
cseck to the scheme for establishing
a Canadian Iloyds, with view of re-
ducing the rates charged in London
for insuring vessels navigating the
st. Lawrence,
Statistics show that the underwrit-
ers have consistently lost money on
such voyages, owing to the darge-s Of
the river and the prevalence of fogs
and ice.
The Times, In an editorial, con-
siders that nothing could have saved
the Empress of Ireland, considering
the nature of the collision, but asks:
What was the Storstad doing to run
into the Empress of Ireland with such
suddenness and violence?"

last tragic scene on the decks of the
liner, said.
81 was asleep like most of the pas
sengers when the collision came
There was sickening crunching of
wood and steel and then q grinding,
ripping sound as the Storstad smashed
her way along the port side Of our
ship.
Il knew that we had been struck
and.I rushed tc the staterooms of some
friends and shouted to them to get up,
as the ship was sinking. Stateroom
doors few open all along the corridor
and men and women began to rush for
the grand companion forward. Those
aft must have been drowned in their
berths.

Some people bear three kinds of
trouble-all they ever had. all they
have now and ali they expect to have.
