the companies which will appear in to-

will probably be greatly increased when
further returns are received from
other companies in the United States,
as we'll as reports from Canada,
British and Continental corporations.
Accident underwriters will experience
a high liability under special travel
policies, which the companies have been
rapidly discontinuing. To date only
five corporations have reported such
losses, ten others announcing that
theirs will he almost negligible. The
Aetna of Hartford estimates Its figure
100000; Royal Indemnity,
$4,000, and Fidelity and Casualty,
10000. The total Of the five com
panies is $4,000.
Life Insurance concerns have re-
ported S396,5O0, the Equitable leading
the list with s2l1,30O. Nineteen com
panies announce that they have re

Tonight about two hundred menu
bers of the Stock Exchange formed up
in p procession in front of the Royal
Exchange and marched via King Will
lam Street. London Bridge and the
south side of the Thames to the Houses
of Parliament to demand the intern

Thames Embankment. There were
scenes of great enthusiasm when the
object of the procession became known,
and all the way to Westminster vast
numbers joined in the march, women

in the ranks.
The deputation also saw Sir John
Simon, the Attorney General, in his

sensations to him. IL was stated that

in the movement were representatives
of the Stock Exchange metal, rubber

CHURCHILL DIFFERS

Conflict in Statements About

Point Of Inquiry.

London, May H. There is as yet no
explanation Why the Lusitania was on
the spot where she was torpedoed. Tur-
ucr and Churchill have made conflict
ing statements. and the truth must be
thrashed out in the forthcoming in
quiry.
Whether it will become public even
then is a matter Of much doubt, for 10
is quite possible that the publication
Of the wireless messages will be con
sidered inadvisable for military rea
sons. as it might reveal the method and
nature Of warnings given TO British
merchantmen against submarine at
tack.
That warnings were sent Ia beyond
all doubt. That Turner did not follow
them appears equally certain. He may
have had very good reasons for not
doing so and may be able to make ex
panation, but thus far he has not done
so. 1t has not been decided whether
the inquiry will be public or when or
where it will be held. The American
Embassy will nave representative

last inquiry into the sinking of a
British ship was secret.
