Gated a safety deposit box believed
to contain the $4,000, 900 reported
to have been cached by the late

Quoted by the Federal district attorney
in New York and that just begun by
the Department of Commerce. The in
spectors who have appeared before the
departments representatives declare
that they gave the Vestris thorough
examination before pronouncing her
seaworthy. They admit, however, that
they failed to inspect six of the coal
ports of the ship and therefore cannot
swear that they were securely fastened.
This, they explain, was due to the fact
that they could not get at these coal
ports because they were covered with
coal. 1t has been testified by the crew
that most of the water that entered the
ship came through leaking port The
inspectors have also admitted that they
did not actually lower the Vestris' life
boats to the water to see if they would
