PARIS, March Am the sinking in
the mid-Mediterranean on February 26
Of the French auxiliary cruiser Prov
ence II, the indications are that there
occurred the greatest marine disaster in
the worlds history, so far as loss of life
is concerned.
The French admiralty reports there
we're nearly four thousand persons on
board and up to date it has only ac-
counted for $40 of them. Seemingly,
therefore, more than three thousand
men persisted when the former trans
Atlantic liner went to the bottom. The
story of how the vessel was sunk re-
mains to be told.
The ministry of marine, in a commu-
nication issued today, states that on
board the Provence were the staff of
the Third Colonial infantry regiment,
the Third battalion, the second company
of the First battalion, the second ma
chine gun company and one extra COM
pany, in all nearly 1000 men.
The loss of more than 5000 lives in
the sinking of the Provence is the
greatest ocean disaster of modern times.
Up to the present the largest number
of lives ever lost in one wreck was
when the White Star liner Titanic struck
an iceburg off the Newfoundland banks
on April IA, 1912, and sank with a
death. loss of 1885. The rescued num-
bered 74S.
Among the other great sea disasters
in addition to the Titanic already men
toned were:
The Cunard line steamship Lusitania,
which was torpedoed by a German sub
marine and sunk off the Head of Kin
sale, Ireland, on May q. 1915, with the
loss of 1906 lives.
The burning of the excursion steam
ship General Slocum in the East river
New York, June Is, 1904, when nearly
1000 persons met their death.
The ~Frenc4r line steamship La -Bour-
gogne,r sunk in collision with the steam
ship Cromartshire, July 4, 1898, with
the loss of $50 lives.
The Japanese liner Kicker Maru, sunk
off the coast of Japan, September 20,
1912, with the loss of 1000 lives.
The Canadian Pacific steamship EN-
press of Ireland, sunk in collision with
the Danish collier ,Storstad in the St.
Lawrence river, May %, 1914, with the
loss of more than 1000 lives.
The burning of the Uranium line
steamship Volturno in mid-ocean on Oc-
tober g. 1913, with the loss of 1876
lives

NEW RAIL ROAD LINKS
GREECE TO EUROPE

Washington, June p.-The compile
tlon of railroad connecting Greece
with the remainder of Europe Is re-
ported by Consul-General Alexander
Weddell at Athens in q dispatch to
the Department of Commerce. The
gap OF ffty-six miles that existed has
been closed, and traffic was expected
TO be begun Immediately.
Consul-General Weddell said:
The result OF the completion of
this work to Greece can hardly be
overestlmated. As soon as the war
Is ended, through trains will be run
from Paris and other European CAPT.
tails TO Athens. The time from Paris
will be shortened TO some sixty hours.
II Is though. and through dining and
sleeping cars will run over the lines.
This hitherto missing link in COM
munication lay between Gilda. on the
Saloniki- Monistir line. and Pappap-
uli, on the Tsessalian frontier. Tenn
porary bridges of wood will span
streams and valleys until permanent
steel and concrete structures replace
them after the war. Twenty power
full American locomotives, now ready
at Athens. will draw these trains at
high speed through the picturesque
Vistritza valley and along the Aegean
coast to their destination"

FRENCH ACADEMY
SEATS DISCUSSED

PARIS, May 26.-Though elections
to fill vacancies in the French Acad-
envy have been adjourned until after
the war, names are being discussed
for the empty seats. Conspicuous
among them is that of Jules Cambon,
former Ambassador to Berlin when
war broke out and is now aide to M.
BRAND at the Foreign Office. He is
mentioned for the seat of the late
Francis Charmes, who was director
of the Revue es Deux Mondes
Joseph Reinach, who was promin-
entity identified with the campaign in
favor of the revision of the Dreyfuss
case, is proposed for the seat of the
late Paul Heryieu. Other probable
candidates are Arthur Chuquet, of
the Institute for the seat of the late
Alfred Mezieres and Maitre Charles
Chenu, former head of the order of
avocate and counsel for the Calmette
heirs in the Caillaux case, for the
seat of Jules Lemaitre.
The friends of Leon Bourgeois,
minister of state, who failed of cleo
ton by narrow margin two years
ago, are urging him to present his
name again. Henri Weisinger, of
the Academy of Moral Science, EN-
lie Picard and Edmund Perrier of the
Academy of Science, Henri Robert,
head of the order of advocates, Pierre
Mile, the author, and Rene Vallery-
Rabert, are also possible candidates.
The possibility that the Academy
may wish to consecrate Frances
great military effort by admitting an
other general to the body is also dis
cussed
