While the fate of the majority of
the 2,IOo persons on board the mam
moth White Star liner Titanic, which
aak on the Newfoundland banks,
alter a collision with an iceberg, still
remain in doubt and it is inferred
that more than 1,300 persons were lost.
I note Ol gooil cheer came from the
Oceaa ways by wireless this morning.
It was in the shape of a wireless
mi asane irr.ni the White Star HBOI
Olympic, one of the vessels hovering
near the sseae of the disaster, flash
lug the news thai MO of tae litaalc'i
passengers. innstlv women and clill
dree, were befog, brought to port by
the Cunarder Carpathia. Other m
sages later lnought confirmatory till
First reports were that the Car
nathin had saved hut fiTr, persons The
new jinn in rednced the list of those
for whose fat- fear was left bj nearly
200, mid if. as seem probable, prac
tically all those saved were passen
gers, it would appear that nil but up
proximately ISO of the vessel s passen
gors are accounted for. A partial list
of tile survivors received from the
Carpathia Includes the names ot
many women of prominence who were
on the steamer.
No Word of Awful Scan.
After the first tOSperSte calls of
the TUaalo. tOf help had been sent fly
ing through space and brought steam
era for hundreds of miles around
speeding to the scene, what -seems to
have been in Impenetrable wall of si
kteee was raised between her and the
anxious world. The giant liner, so far
as advices appear, went to her fate
w ithout so much a a whisper of what
must hsveheen tbe scenes; of terrible
traced) eiracted on her decks. In the
lack of even a line from a survivor,
imagination pauses before trying to
conjecture what passed as the inevi
table became known.
No humiliation had been received
from the Virginian or Parisian at the
White Star line offices, although It wa
said "ft. be known" that many of the
Titanic paeceegOrS were on these ves-
Jels
Vice Pre.-ident Franklin said he had
cam elied arrangements for tbe ape
clal trains which they had planned to
.send to Halifax to bring the tescued
passengers to this city by rail, as It
was believed that the boats which had
Thanh's passengers aboard would
steam direct for New York.
The message received from Capta'u
Haddock, as made public by Mr. Fran!;
tin. read'
"At 2:20 a. in. Titanic founder.-.!.
Carpathia preceding to New York
with passengers."
Thei- 'jms ason to believe, ho
ever, ihjt the eeatgS was rOSaldei
sal) leaser than the above.
One of Mr. FiunkMn - saetatsatSi it
apaoawf ing earttsr tksi the Titan-
led rone down, said thst the Car
patbJS ws proceeding to New York
with survivors
Other than the news that 80 per
sons, largely women and children, had
been rescued from the liners boats by
the Cunarder ('Hrpathia, several hour
passed without a word as to the fat'
of the remainder 01 those on board at
the time of the fateful crash. Along
the ntlre Atlantic coast win-lea In
struments we re attuned to catch from
any source the slightest whisper of
hope that possibly one of the main
steamships that rushed to the aaalst
inc" of the stricken Titan of the sens,
bore other survivors of the sunken
vessel.
Question as to Two Ships.
As the Titanic sunk before :', o'cloc k
In tbe morning it was not hoped that
the Virginian could reach the scene
before 10 a. m. at the earliest, while
the Parisian was said to be some dis
tance farther away, it was feared even
by the White Star officials, trying their
best to calculate differently and yet
accurately, that they would not have
reached th scene In time to be of
service.
The steamer Virginian was Anally
heard from at 2:15 o'clock. It did not
report the presence of any survivors
on board, the message from it stating
that It would bring to St. Johns, N. F.',
aitch survivors as It ' may rescue."
The Titanic Itself lies buried two
miles below the ocean's surface, mid
way between Sable Island and Cape
Race. Its position when It struck the
iceberg was given at latitude 41:46
north, longitude 50: 14 west.
Floats Four Hours.
According to the Carpathla's advice?
the liner, which struck the iceberg at
10:25 o'clock Sunday night, sank at
2:20 o'clock Monday morning, nearly
four hours later, not more than half a
degree south of the point where the
collision occurred. It seems Improh
nble from this that the liner, after th
accident, made much headway undet
its own steam.
It seems established that there werr
about 2,100 persons on the liner. This
was the estimate of the line officials
In New York, who gave the number of
passenger as 1,320, the remainder pi
860 making up the crew.
Among the passenger aboard were
Colonel and Mrs. John Jacob Astor
Alfred G. Vanderbllt. Major Archibald
Butt, military aide to President Taft ;
F. D. Millet, the artist; Mr. and Mrs
Isidor Straus. J. Q, Widener of Phila
delphia. President Hays of the Orand
Trunk rallwav . J. Bruce Ismay, manag
ing director of the White Star line;
W. T. Stead. Emll Hrandels and others
