Washington, May S.-President Wilson, upon whom the eyes of the world are fo- cussed at the present moment studied in euiet seclusion today the aspects of law and fact in connection with the sinking by German torpedo of the British liner Lusitania, with consequent loss of many American lives.
 The great human tragedy coupled with the responsibilities of the hour caused the President to deny himself to all callers. even to members of his official family. while he turned over in his mind the course to be pursued by the United States government in one of the most serious crises in its history.

The Cunard line received and posted shortly before 10 a. m. an incomplete list of survivors. which was anxiousiy scanned by friends and relatives. There wers touching scenes when women, the names of whose loved ones were among the missing. gave way to their emotions. To the list of survivors received from abroad several names were added here by friends of passengers who had received private cablegrams from the passengers themselves saying that they were safe. Knowing, however, that the list still was incomplete hope fingered with many.
 Gloom spread over the theatrical district when 1t became known that the body of Charles Frohman, the theatrical producer, had been picked up among the dead, and that Charles Klein. another theatrical pro ducer. was among the missing. There was similar depression among friends of Alfred Gwynne Vanderbilt. Ebert Hub- bard. Justts Miles Forman. and others from whom no word had been received.
