Eatltled to Rates. Attorney Stanley Itosewater, who re plied In the afternoon, contended that the editor of The Bee, as a taxpayer and patron of the water works, was entitled to have the reasonableness of the rates paised upon by the courts. It Is the position of the plaintiff that the unrea sonably1 high charges made by the Water board result In eonflsoatloa of the prop erty ef cltttens without due process of law, "When a city or any other pabllo body becomes the owner of a syatem of water works." said Attorney Rosewater, "it holds the same In Its private capacity and operates the same generally with all the powers and liabilities of a publlo service corporation privately owned aad managed. The defendants have acquired no unusual powers, no unusual priv ileges, nothing that pertains to the dl. vine right of kings, by reason of the fact that they act In the capacity of a publlo body. "It ts admitted that the legislature may change the manner of making rates, but tho right of appeal to the courts to teat the reasonableness of the charges cannot be abridged." The Minnesota rats case decided by the supreme court last summer was cited by Mr. Rosewater as proving the right of the courts to determine the reason ableness of rates fixed by a body whose authority to make charges la undented. but which cannot uin-p the Judicial function also.

A large number of former Judicial declslona were cited by counsel on both sides, and the Judge said eev eral days would elapse before his ruling would be made.

I found that boat No. 6 had al ready been whipped by the gale against ths davits and that Its bow had been smashed. I don't know why, but I lowered ths empty boat. It got away clear of the ship. It was a pity that It was broken. "The captain then gave the order to fight the fire. I went on the bridge. He coupled the hose to the pumps and stretched two lines of It "We had been working the wireless for naarty an hour. Finally we got word that the Carmanta was Coming, full speed, to help. us. I ran to the passengers who were huddled aft Some of them wer praying, some laughing. I shouted to them that the Carmanla was coming. Most of them felt on their knees. Tho panla among them ended. "I went back to the bridge. The cap tain told me that tho main mast was In danger of falling. I got a couple of tackles and made the main mast firm so that the atrial could not go down and destroy our wireless. "Then the steering gear on the bridge blew up with & loud explosion. We be gan to drift. The carpenters fixed up a hand steering goar, Wo didn't want to drift for fear the Carmanta could not find us. I told the passengers that tho Carmanla would reach us In an hour and that quieted them. "Th Carmanla sent us a message to str southwest by west to meet It, but we had to steer before the wind to keep the flames forward. t Flames Are Checked.

I met the cap tain In the smoke. Ills eyes had been badly burned and he was halt blinded. "I ordered the stewards to bring food to the passengers and It was done. Then the Grosser Kurfuerst by wireless asked It wa needed Its help, and Captain Inch, thinking he had the flames beaten, an swered that he did not need any more help. The Carmanta wa near by. Its Captain asked what he could do and Cap tain Inch requestsd htm to scout around for the boats that had put off. It cir cled about ten miles east and returned Without finding them. "None of us had thought about the eighty or ninety sterrage passengers In No. 1 compartment v'e had not had time to do so, we ware so busy fighting the fire. I don't know how many of them were In their places when the first ex plosion ooourred, but I fear that many of them were there. They were cut oft by the flames. We can only Imagine what happened to them, as none of us was able to get Into that compartment again. Fear Sailors Baraed to Death. "When It seemed that the flames had died down somewhat, the captain tried to go Into" the sailors' forecastle. He found the bodies of four sailors, burned Quit Meat When Kidneys Bother Take a glass of Salts if your Back hurts or Bladder troubles you.

No boat could live In such a sea. The captain of the Seydlltx by wireless said he would have to wait, as the swell was too heavy. Tho Carmanla's said the same. The Carmanla, so far aa I know, aia not lower a boat whlls It was near us. "When the saloon and the first-class quarters caught fire we broke the for ward windows and put the Ore out there.

Captain Inch turned To me: 'If you see a chance for your life. he said, 'take It and Jump.' The captain ordered all the passengers to fasten on the life belts. They did.' so and became quieter. Of the half dosen men who Jumped, all had lines about them, and we pulled them back to the ship when we saw they could not moke the boats. "When the rockets alt went up at once the last explosion shook us. the captain of the Kroonland thinking that meant the end, lowered all the boats. The fir spread amidships. Women Are Hysterical, Two women threw their arms around my neck, weeping, begging me to save their lives. I promised to do what I could. I told them to watch the boats from the other ships and when they came close to us to Jump for them. They leaned over the rail, looked down at the dark water and were afraid. When I tried to help them they hued a staunch. Ion and would not Jump. "All our lights went out then. The searchlights of tho eleven ships around us and the glare of the fire on the water were all we had to guide us. I gsve the brder for all to make ready to Jump for the boats. Captain Inch was still on tb bridge. The passenger made ready. "Some of the passeng-ers were braro and Jumped Into the water when the boats came close and were ploked up. Some were not picked up. One of the life boat was piled full and put away. It was the first boat that came to us. a little boat marked 'New Tork.'

One of the boats from' the Grosser Kurfuerst almost touched th side of the Volturno. It waa soon niled with passengers who slid down tho ropes. When I saw that no mora pas sengers would go and that all the women were off, I slid down a rope and without touching water stepped Into the boat Lifeboats Hare Hard Fig-fat.
