were unconcerned over the possibility
Of being torpedoed." he said. Like
everybody else aboard, | felt sure that
in case of being torpedoed we would
have ample time to take to the boats.
But neither discipline nor precautions
were up to the standard. When /
heard the crash I rushed to the port
side. No officer was in sight. An
effort was being made to lower the
boat swinging just opposite the grand
entrance. Women. children and men
made a mad scramble about this boat,
which was smashed against the side
throwing all the occupants into the
sea.
Then two big men, one a sailor and
the other a passenger, succeeded in

side. This boat got away, carrying
chiefly women and children.

Hartford, Conn. May Q. Life and
accident insurance companies IN this

there is hope for salvage.
The Ktna Life Insurance Company, Of
which Morgan G. Buckley is president,
has a policy through its accident de-
partment on Ebert Hubbard, which,
with its double indemnity for loss Of
life on q common carrier and accumu-
lated benefits, amounts TO S57 800. The
same company has policy on his wife.
Alice Hubbard. which cost her only So
and which, with its double indemnity
provisions, will double the face value
Of $4,000 70 $4,000 and be payable to
