The initial reduction Of the auto. motive issues failed to unsettle the rest Of the list where constructive operations continued to make good headway. Supporting orders came to the rescue of Mack Trucks. which rehounded points from it's early low, and good demand also de- N@loped for Chrysler. Accumulation or high priced stocks was reflected in early gains of 1 to points by General Electric, Havana Electric, Westinghouse Air Brake, Otis Tle- Vator and Atlantic Refining, while Ia resumption of pool operations brought about similar advances in recent fayorities such as Union Bag & Paper, |.

Four Investigations

Newport, R. |. Aug 20 tF-Four separate investigations were under way today to determine the re- sponsibility for the tragedy Of the explosion of the boiler on the ex- cursion steamer Mackinac in New port harbor Tuesday evening Hospital authorities, who still have many sufferers from the scalding steam which enveloped the boat, said that the death list will probably exceed 50
 State boiler inspectors who visit ed the deathship yesterday stated 10 the Associated Press that the boiler (which exploded was cracked and in a weakened condition.
 Their findings are being checked by the Rhode Island attorney gen. erals office, and federal steamboat inspectors, and Newport police are conducting an independent inyesti- gaticn.

|MACKINAC DEATH
 TOLL NOW IS 4l
(Centinued From First PaEe)

Macklnac's boiler has never been Inspected in the state Of Rhode Is- land. Government officials in Proyi- dence said that the vessel was last inspected in New York in April. Tho investigators said 1t is an old one, deteriorated by wear thinned down in certain places and containing signs of discooration which indicate an old break.
 Tho federal laws controlling in- spection of steam vessels demand the submission of such ships to boiler examination once year.
 Officers at the naval hospital sn- nounced today that all of the Mack inc victims would be moved from the federal institution to the Newport hospital as soon as their condition permitted.
 Dr. Norman s, Baker, superin- tendent of the Newport hospital. is- sued call to the women of New port asking for nurses to volunteer their services for several days to as- sist the regular hospital staff. Yes terday 25 Newport women. many of whom saw service overseas, offered their services to Dr. Baker

To Determine Resnonsihiltty


 The state officials will decide whether criminal negligence caused the accident and whether any per sons will be prosecuted for it.
 Physicians at the Naval hospital, where most of the seriously injured were taken, and at the New port hos pital said it will probably be a week before f can be definitely stated how many of the injured will re- cover.
 They explained that in such cases a patient may finger on the bor- derline of death for many days un- iii his resistance is undermined by the extreme shock attendant upon such injuries.
 Captain George McVey. who com- nanded the Mackinac, and Nho was also in command of the steamer Larchmont when it sank off Block Island in 1907 with the loss of 125 or more lives, was terribly affected by the tragedy. He told city off cials that almost immediately after he felt the ConcusSion of the eXplo- sion, steam began 10 seep through every creYiCe from the boiler room, shrouding the ship in a fatal cloud and making it impossible 10 see the nearby shore. Fearing that the .Mackinac was so badly damaged that she would sink, he sent the pilot to the hurricane deck to determine the direction of land.
 Stcered For Shore
 Guided by the pilots directions, he said, he bindly turned the Mackiuac towards shore and her momentum carried her up on the beach. The next few minutes were filled with agonized activity as he and members of the crew strole to avert panic among the passengers. The swift arrival of launches from navy vessels nearby prevented the badly injured from becoming panic stricken, it was believed.
 While few leaped overheard, most of them remained on the ship until the launches could carry them to the naval hospital.
 All yesterday and late into the night the hospitals were visited by stream of relatives and friends of the injured, and residents of New port, who were attempting to as- susge their sueferings.
 Several children who were sep arated from their parents during the excitement that followed the explosion, were claimed by members of the families yesterday
 The naval hospital lacked tacili- ties for caring for the dead, and hodiAs wAre removed to the estab- lishments of local undertakers as quickly as possible atte rdeath Most of them were claimed by relatives immediately,
