means quite loss to Mr.. Weiss.

SUPREME COURT To
HEAR TITANIC CASE
Question Is Whether Ameri.
can or English Admiralty
Laws Will Govern.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 12.-Compensa
tion for the stupendous loss of life and
property with the sinking Of the steam
ship Titanic Will be up for consideration
tomorrow by the supreme court. On the
outcome OF the argument of some of
Americas leading lawyers will depend
whether the Oceanic Steam NaviGa ton
company, the owner OF the Titanic, must
lace the payment Of some S13,0o0,0 600 Of
claims, or whether It's liability is to be
Limited 10 some 100000.
Intricate questions OF law which have
perpleNed legal minds OF the United
states and Great Britain since the IT,
"a nc maiden voyage was ended by the
iceberg's fatal blow. and which have not
been decided by the British courts, will
be up for decision.
the American court hold the admiralty
laws and rules OF the United States ap-
phcable to the case, and thereby limit the
liability of the company TO the salvage
from the wreck, and the passenger and
freight money received on the voyage
amounting in all TO some 100000,
Claimants seeking TO recover for loss OF
lives. baggage and freight have dis
patched about score OF lawyers to the
supreme court with briefs In their be-
half Every inca of the ground upon
Which the navigation company is basing
It's claim TO a limitation OF liability is
TO be contested
In the first place. it is claimed that
Amer1can law does not apply. because
Furthermore II is contended that the
American law contemplates limitation OF
liability only when the disaster results
from the collision Of two vessels and not
when II occurs from striking all iceberg.
Some Of the lawyers also argue further
that British law fixes the liability OF the
owner, because the Titanic carried the
British flag and that the supreme court
should Eo hold.
Should the British law be applicable
the American court would have 10 de-
termine whether 1T shall proceed TO take
jurisdiction OF the claims and enforce the
British law or whether the claimants
must sue in England. In either case, 1t
is said, 3 prolonged contest would re-
suit Should it be found that the dis
aster occurred without the owners fault
or privity, the damages recoverable by
the claimants, under British law, 1t is
said, would he about $4,000. 900. Should
II be held that the disaster occurred
with the owners fault or privity. it would
be liz BILE for full damages, now claimed
to be about $4,000 900.

District Attorney Whitman refused to

LONDON, Jan. 12,-Further reports
reached London today from the re-

appalling distress among the starving
refugees and the urgent need for i'm
mediate financial assistance. The sofia
representative of the Balkan war relief
committee writes:
There are now about l2U,OCO

An urgent telegram has been re-
ceived from the Albanians, saying
10000 Bulgarian refugees have reached
Durazzo, whom they arc unable to feed

steamers be sent to bring them to this

towns the government is housing the
refugees in schools.

The report states "a number Of
strikers have been killed and others
injured in the use of arms In the
possession OF Waddell men," This
convicts the Waddell men before their
trial The record of those killed to
date is as follows:
Two strikers who are said to have
resisted deputies; one striker who was
connected with the murder Of Dep
uty Pollock. On the other hand, three
while lying In bed, and hundreds OF
men, whose only offense was a de-
sire TO go 10 work. have been at
tackled and so cruelty beaten that they
required medical attention at our hos
pitals.
The Quincy Mining company is ac-
cused OF evidently intending to de-
ceive Germans who could not read
English" because they complied with
the laws of New York and printed
guage. Not only did the company
comply with the law. but Mr., Par
sons Todd has told me on two occa-
sions that he went with interpreters
and personally interviewed the men
who were engaged to work 30 that
there could be no misunderstanding
OF the situation.
The report states that the Calumet
& Hecla Mining company employs up

Der of mine workers engaged in that

the strike. employed considerably less
