WASHINGTON, April -Presldent Taft probably will send a warship soon to the west coast of Mexico to enable Americans Isolated In Sinaloa and other statea to leave the disturbed district An announcement by the State department tonight declared this action likely In view of the general anxiety for American In those localities. State department officials pointed ou: that with the suspension of railroad com munication and the interruption of telegraph service, many American citisens on the west coast of Mexico, especially at Los Mochls, In Slnaloa, as well as In the vicinity of Mazatlan. are Isolated. This fact, together with many report of In creased lawlessness on the west coast. Is causing much anxiety to Americans In the region affected and their friends In the Untied States. Many requests and expressions of anxiety have reached the State department. State department officiate declared this action ' necessary because otherwise there Is no way to learn of the safety of those Americans who are at present not only entirely cut off from communication with the outside world, but deprived by the cessation of railroad service of any means of leaving."

The Mackey Bennett reached the scene at S o'clock Saturday evening and reported that operations would be begun Sunday. NEW YORK, April 51. With dramatic suddenness the senate Investigation of the Titanic disaster came to an end yesterday so far as the New York hearing was concerned. It will be resumed, however. In Washington on Monday when J. Kruoe Ismay and P. A. 8. Franklin, chief of. fleer of the White Star line, and mora than a core of officers nd crew of the sunken vessel will appear before the committee. Incident to the sudden close of the hearing here was the story of Harold 8. Bride, the second and only surviving wireless operator of the Titanic. HI tsle wss on of suffering end deth. He told of th final plunge of the vessel. Its captain's end was also revealed. He leaped from th bildge when the waters were closing over th ship. In connection with the transfer of th hearing to Washington It was Intimated that the power of the ente In federal territory would be undlaputed in getting at the real facts and no question ol state rights could arise to Interfere. Through out the hearing also officials of the Whit Str line had portrayed th dan gers of sailors' boarding house In New York a a reason why those detained by the committee should be allowed to sail on th Lapltnd which left today.

Later he Is sued a statement giving In oetu nts reasons for this sudden chsnge In plana, The committee devoted Its entire day to an investigation ot the connection of th wireless with the disaster. II. T. Cottam, the operator of the Carpathla, was the first witness. Senator Smith sought to establish certain testimony he hsd given on the stand yesterday and this soon was ended. Then came the tar witness of the day. Brtde was wheeled to the end of theljnalon stage. He was hollow cheeked and weak and had Just come from a physician's care.

Neither had hsd any telegraphic experience previous to taking up wireless telegraphy and both told tales of long hours at low wsges and days snd nights spent without sleep. This Inexperience and the nental con dition of the yi'.'Ug operators were the ! two points on which Penalor Kmlth bore ' persistently. He had put Cottam through a gruelling examination In which the youth testified that he had not slept more than eight or ten hours between Kunday night, when the Titanic called for help, and Thursday night, when the vessel docked here. Bride's story waa one that bore out virtually all that Cottam' had established, except that his was one of nervous strain and worry and high keyed suspense. Beat ttsaee for Help, I. set. Rrkte wa cloeely questioned aa to the first call for aid sent out by the Titanic. He said the first vessel to answer was th Frankfurt of the North German Lloyd line. The operator on the Frank furt, according to the witness, appar ently considered the call more or less trivial, for half an hour after receiving the imperative appeal of the sea he called the Titanic to Inquire specifically Just what was wrong' "Mr. Phllltppe said he was a fool," Bride . . ' . ' . .. ... . testified, referring to the chief operator f on the Titanic, who lost his life, "and told blm to keep out." No effort wa made to re-establish communication with the Frankfurt, al though Phillip felt certain that the ves sel was much nearer than the Carpathla, with which communication bad bean es tablished. This. Bride said, Phllllppa Judged by reason of the greater power of the Hertxian waves. Sneator Smith expressed aton!hment at the statement. He repeatedly pressed the witness to explain why the aid of a vessel many miles nearer a sinking ship was not Invoked.

NEW YORK, April 21. -Three warnings that an Iceberg waa ahead were trans mitted from the crow's nest ot the Ti tanic to the officer of the doomed steam. ship' bridge fifteen minutes before It struck, according to Thomas Wlilteley, a first ealonn steaard. who now lie In St. Vincent hospital with ' (rosea snd lacerated feet. Wlilteley, wuo wa whipped overboard from the ship by a rope while helping to lower a ItfetViat. finally reached the Carpathla aboard one of the boata that contained, he eafd, both the crow'n nest i lookouts. He heard a onnversation be tween them, he asserted. In which they discussed the warnings given of the pre, ence of the Iceberg. Whlteley did not know either of the lookout men's name and believes they have returned to F.ng- bind with the majority of the surviving members of Die crew. "I heard one of the men say that at 11.13 o'clock, fifteen minutes before the Titanic struck, he had reported to First Officer M urdock that he fancied he saw Iceberg." said Wlilteley. 'Twice af ter that the lookout said he warned Sir. Murdnck that the berg waa ahead. I can't remember their exact words, but they were Indiinant that no attention was paid lo their warnlnga. One of them said: 'No wonder that Mr. Mur dock shot himself.' " Tells af Money Host, Whlteley, In telling -of various experi ences of the disaster that had come to bis knowledge, said that on one of the first boata lowered the only passengers aboard were a man whom he wa told ws n American millionaire, his wife, child and two valets. Th others In the boat were firemen and coal trimmers, he said, seven In number, whom the man had promised to pay well If they would man the lifeboat. They made only thir teen In all. "1 don't know the mans name," said i Whlteley. "I beard It but have forgotten It. But . saw an ordix(or 1 which this man ga-e to each of the crew of bis boat after they got aboard the Car pathla. It aas a piece or ordinary paper addressed to the Coutta bank of Eng land. "We called that boat the 'money boat.' It was lowered from the starboard side and was one of the first off. Our orders were to load the lifeboata beginning for ward on the port side, working aft, and then back on the starboard. This man paid the firemen to lower a starboard boat before the officera had given the order. Whlteley explained that the reason he j thought the crow s nest lookout had I started back to England waa that he had read that besides the senior officers only Quartermasters had been retained as wtt-1 nesses by the senate committee Investi gating the disaster, and that they could I not be In hospitals, aa they had not been Injured.
