Breakdown After Quizzing.

New York. Nov. 26 R,-Captain
Luther Martin Overstreet. U. s. n.
commander Of the battleship Wyo-
ming. was the first witness today at
the federal inquiry into the sinking
of the Lamport and Holt liner Ves-
iris two weeks ago today, telling OF
his ships part in the rescue work.
$50 Miles on
The Wyoming was ESQ miles away
when the Vestris reported by radio
at 10 o'clock in the morning that 1t
was sinking off the Virginia Capes.
1t reached the scene early the next
morning, first saving a negro fire.
man on an improvised raft and then
five women clinging to an overturn-
ed lifeboat.
Captain Overstreet criticized the
lifebelts on the Vestris. saying that
they were constructed in such 4
way that the head Of the wearer
was unsupported and In an exhaust.
ed condition could fall forward into
the water. They should be built
close under the chin, he said, to
hold the head up and higher in back
to support the head there. With
such high built belts. he testified,
a swimmer could remain alive al
though half drowned and worn out
with the buffeting of the waves.
20 Hours Limit
He estimated that 20 hours would
be the limit OF human endurance
in the water in waves such as there
were during the rescue work.
1T is remarkable" he said. that
any Of those women stood the beat
ing Of the sea all night long"
United States Attorney Tuttle,
who is conducting the inquiry. ask
ed Capt. Overstreet II he knew of
any existing lifebelts OF better con-
struction than those on the Vestris
II believe our navy lifebelts do
support the head and shoulders
more efficiently" the captain re-
piled.
Harry Wheeler, superintendent of
the Lamport and Holt Line, testi-
fled next. expressing the opinion
that the leaks that sank the ves-
iris might have been caused by any
one of four possibilities.
Other witnesses have told of
many leaky doors and ports and
have said that water apparently was
rushing into the hull also from
some other source which could not
be located.
Four Causes
The four possible causes for this
leaking suggested by Wheeler were:
Rupture Of the shell plate, parting
OF seam rivets, fracturing of a sea
connection and straining of coal
ports and side doors by heavy seas.

The week at sea had improved Mr..
Hoover much in health and he was
entering upon his unique mission
with zest and the hope that he would
be able to do much to accomplish q
better understanding among the
peoples Of the Americas.

Although Mr. Hoover did not stand
the storm SO we'll, he has not been
seasick.
Mr.. Hoover expected to reach
Amapala before noon after six

Maryland anchorage. At Amapala
plans called for him being met by
members OF the cabinet Of President
Miguel Paz Barahona, Herschel v.

ly by the president himself. Mr..
Hoover was to be entertained at
luncheon at Amapala. At this lunch
con it was expected Mr.. Hoover
would deliver his first speech.
Whether he would make an extend
ed talk there or at La Union. Saliva
Gor, depended on whether the pres

Anxiously Waiting

As
London. Nov. &c R-A nation
that had awaited in anxiety over
their sovereign's health the first Of
fetal bulletin on his condition, to-
day, failed to find much relief
when physicians announced that
King George had passed = restless
night.
Pleurfsy Spreads
The medical bulletin, signed by
the kings physicians. Sir Stanley
read:
THE king has passed = restless
night. A variability in the fever and
the spread OF the pleurisy must be
expected at this state OF the illness."
Anxiety continued since the state
ment did not reveal anything definite
about the kings condition this
morning, the statement, however,
that at this stage of the illness
spread OF pleurisy must be expected.
and likewise a variability In tenn
perature. led to the conclusion ~
members OF the kings household
that the medical advisers were not
perturbed over his condition. Their
phraseology gave the impression
that the malady in their opinion
was taking a natural course.
Temperature Rises
1t was gathered that the kings
restless night was due to rise in
temperature that occurred yesterday
and was reflected in last nights an
nouncement that fever had In
creased.
The physicians arrived at the
palace this morning earlier than
usual. but remained with the king
only an hour as they had done
previously. After they left the sick
room they remained for some time
in the palace talking to members Of
the royal household.
IT is understood that before they

Can Water Flow Uphill2

CNCE the earth Is an oblate spheroid,
- instead Of q perfect sphere, tts
center is farther from the equator than
from either Pole. The difference
about 13 miles. Now the Mississippi
River flows southwark for 20 great .
distance that It's surface al 1ts mouth
Is about four miles farther from the
earths center that at It's source Does
it, then, flow uphill?
This is a question frequently psrs %
Washington scientists. The reply Is
that up" means against grayttation,
and "down" with grayitation; hence the
Mississippi does not flow uphill, although
obviously it moves away from the center
Of the globe. Plumb lines rarely point
directly toward the center Of the earth.
The variation from that direction has
given rise to an interesting branch OF
the Governments work.
The visible irregularities OF the sur
face of the earth-mountainS, valleys
and water basinS-affect the form Of
attraction which is known as graytta-
ton. A cubic mile Of land Is two and
a half times as dense as similar VOL
ume of water The plumb line tends 10
| lean toward the earth masses and away
| from the water basins. These influences,
which may be computed with scientific
accuracy, do not, however. explain all
of the reflections. Varying degrees Of
density, some miles below the surface
| Of the earth, must be assumed 70 exist.
Trifing as these defections are,
never exceeding nine inches in plumb
line a mile long, they are Of consider
able scientific importance. They mod
ify the calculations Of navigators and
explorers as to positions on the earth's
surface derived from the stars. They
| thus become essential in high-grade
map making. In the eye Of science
| there are no trifeS.
