ace intended to do him in are dis
counted by the statements of the
secretary, Stodart, who appears
convicted that for some days past
Blame was not of sound mind and
suffering from a form of persecu-
ton mania.
Captain Derringham seems a
fine. straightforward, if rather ST.
lent, fellow and certainly not the
man to permit any monkey bust
ness upon a ship commanded by
him.
Rocksavage'S manner is normal
and he appears surprised and up-
set at the tragedy, although it
should be noticed that he stated
that this was only a pleaure trip,
whereas il is made abundantly
clear from Stodart's statement
that its real objective was to cover
big business conference between
Rocksavage and Blame.
On the face of it, all the guests
are apparently respectable people
of some social standing, and Cap
tain Derringham gives me his as
surance that no new men have
been brought on in the crew this
trip, or employees of Rocksavage,
for any special purpose. 'r-
Apart, therefore, from 3lane's
innuendoes there is no evidence at
all to support any suggestion out
side the known facts and, in my
view, it is a plain case of suicide.

rapher Southwold ashore in the

Officer Neame, who will deliver

ING'S SECOND REPORT.

ING'S SECOND REPORT.
On receipt of Lieut.. Schwab's
memo and the photographs of c
suite on S. Y. Golden Gull / at
once proceeded below in the COM
pany of Detective Officer Neame
to make q thorough examination
of Blane's suite in daylight.
| first examined the marks on
the carpet, mentioned in Lieut..
Schwab's report, and apparent IN
print B. These marks consist Of
slight irregular roughing of the
pile in the carpet running from
the table to near the window.
Owing to the light they are not >ob..
servable from the inboard side OF
the cabin, but only from the out
board side, which explains my fall
ure 10 notice them last night.
These marks might have been
made by the two legs of a chair
being dragged across the carpet.
found, however, at the table end
of these roughly parallel tracks q
very slightly discolored patch up
on the carpet, which would not
have been visible in electric light.
/ then proceeded TO examine the
portfolio window and found upon
the left hand curtain a smear OF
blood.
Returning to the patch on the
carpet it seemed to me probable
that small quantity of blood had
been spilled here, too, and that
someone had endeavored to get II
out by rubbing the place with q
wet sponge. ...
If the person had done this i'm
mediately after the blood was
Espilled, as is probable, most of the
blood would have been absorbed
hence the faintness of the discol-
Grafton. The patch is still damp
and measures about eight inches
by five, although it Is probable
that, if the blood was spilled here,
il was no more than few drops
and the main patch of damp was
caused by an endeavor to clean
the carpet afterwards. o..
In view of this, the tracks on
the carpet present a; new signifi-
canoe, and l suggest that they
were caused by the toes of a mans

many of the positions offered, but
this June more students are finding

since 1880 for promising seniors is
just another indication of the tre-
improvement in, business.
Chronic Complaint.
My real message today, however, is
not simply these good reports on jobs
for graduates. What I really want to
answer is an often-heard comment
that there are not the same oppor-
tunities for young men and women to-
day that there were thirty years ago.
This same chronic complaint was in
vogue when l graduated from M. I.

as far and just as fast today as they
ever could. If anything, progress is
easier and more rapid now than it
was then. If the 1887 crop of grad
yates follow the same basic prin-
ciples that their fathers followed in
making a success of their businesses
and professions, they will be success
full.
Those who feel that the oppor-
tunities of forty years ago are gone
base their belief on the fact that the
pioneer days have passed into his

Capitol Hill.
But do the Capitol Hill politicians
truly reflect rank-and-file national |
sentiment? They are supposed to be
clever at assessing trends of opinion |
in their respective constituencies. Are
they as clever as usual, however, in
the present case?
The President is superbly clever,
| too, at reading the voters collective
mind.
Is he in error this time, for once?
Or are the boiling lawmakers (par-
| ticularly senators) the ones who are
| mistaken?
Only the 1888 elections can tell.
CONFUSION NOW
The situation has jumbled itself al
most too rapidly for the human mind
to analyze.
| Last November's verdict at the
| polls indicated that "F. D." had the
solidest country back of him since
George Washington's day. It was a
verdict which Democrats in both
houses of Congress accepted unques-
tioningly as an overwhelming Roose-
welt victory. A mere six months later
| these same Democrats in the Senate
| (not so many in the representatives
| chamber) are, nearly half of them, in
vicious revolt against Rooseveltian
leadership.
The executive mansions Supreme
Court policy started the row, but it
is spreading to include other admin
istration policies.
IF THERE is REVOLT
Nevertheless, can President Roose-
welt, predominant as his philosophy
appeared to be so recently, have lost
ground appreciably now with the vot-
ing masses?
| The answer one hears is that Presi-
dent Wilson appeared as predominant
as could have been desired until he
uncovered his League of Nations pro-
gram-and then could not put that
program across"
| To be sure, Wilson was not re-
elected in 1916 by any such majority
as Roosevelt was reelected in 1896.
A MIXED MAJORITY
President Roosevelt does have this
advantage.
| I When President Wilson was turned
against by his small majority he did
not have any minority group to- come
to his rescue; his boilers joined the
Republicans and the combination lick
ed him.
