STORSTAD 10 BLAME FOR EMPRESS WRECK (Continued from First Page.) will be convenient to deal with the evidence connected with the Empress of Ireland first. “No witness speaks of having seen her make any change of course dur- !'ing the fog, and. those who were on board engaged in her navigation dis- tinctly deény that any change what- ever was made. Two Theories Expounded. “There is, in our opinion, no ground for saying that the course of the Em- press of Ireland was ever changed in the sense that the wheel was wil- fully moved; but as the hearing pro- ceeded another explanation was pro- pounded, namely, that the vessel changed her course, not by reason of any wilful alterations of her wheel, but in consequence of some uncon- trollable movement, which was ac- counted for at one time on the hy- pothesis that the steering gear was out of order and at another by the theory that, having regard to the full- ness of the stern of the Empress of Ireland, the area of the rudder was insufficient. Evidence was called in support of this explanation. It is Tiot hecessary to examine this evidence in detail. Galway Principal Witness, The principal witness on this point ac to the steering gear was a man named Galway, one of the quarter- masters on the Empress of Ireland. He said that he reported the jamming incident to Williams, the sécond officer on the bridge (who was drowned), and to Pilot Bernier. He said he also mentioned the matter to Quartermaster Murphy, who relieved him at midnight of the disaster. Pilot Bernier and Murphy denied that Galway had made any complaint what- ever to them about the steering gear. “Galway gave his evidence badly and made so unsatisfactory a witness that we cannot rely on his testimony. Some evidence was called, however, to confirm Galway’s. ‘“Witnesses spoke of having passed the Empress of Ireland on her way down the river, about 9:20 (Montreal time) on the evening of the 28th of May, and they sald she was swinging and steering badly, changing from red to gréen several times, Not Well Founded. “On the whole question of the steering gear and rudder we are of opinion that the allegations as to their conditioins are not well founded. “It was said on behalf of the Stor- stad that the order to put the liner full speed astern was probably given tecause the Empress of Ireland had become unmanageable by reason of her defective steering gar. We can- not accept this suggestion, but we do think the stopping evidences uneasi- ness on the part of Captain Kendall and a consclousness that his ship was possibly in too close proximity to the Storstad. “We think ‘that he ‘would ' have been better advised if he had given the Storstad a wider berth, and had navigated his ship so as to pass the Storstad at a greater distance on his beam than he originally intended. We do not think, however, that his stopping, which was really done for greater caution, can be said to have been an unseamanlike act, nor do we consider his failure to give the wider berth as a contributory cause of the disaster. No Lack of Discipline. The report found that there was no lack of discipline on board the Em- press and that the Empress complied with all the regulations regarding boat equipment, watertight doors, ete. To prevent such loss of life in the future the commission made these suggestions: “1—That in foggy weather all water-tight doors and port holes be- lcw the top of the water-tight bulk- Theads be closed. Preferably they should be closed all the time between sunset and sunrise. “2—That it might be desirable to ccnsider whether -rafts could not be placed in such a position on the upper deck that they would float auto- matically on the water as the ship sank.” SUMMER HOTEL DESTROYED. ‘Worcester, Mass., July 11.—The Mountain House, a seventy room summer hotel of wooden construction at the foot of Mount Wachusett, owned by George Doherty of Charles- town, .was burned today with a loss estimated at between $10,000 and $15,000. The twelve guests and twelve employes escaped in safety. PLAGUE UNDER OONTROL.

Daniels Authorizes Retention of Uer- tain Brands of Tobacco in Navy. ‘Washington, July 11.—General sat- isfaction was expressed today throughout the naval circles when it became known that Secretary Daa- fels, contrary to expectations, had authorized the retention of popular brands of tobacco and articles which it had been rumored would be denied admission to the commissary stores. The action of the secretary follow- ing. the enforcement of his order abolishing the officers wine mess, of- ficlally upset what had become a zen- eral belief among the enlisted men that they, too, would be denied cer- tain proprietary articles which they had heretofore enjoyed. Secretary Daniels said: “I firmly believe that the enlisted men of the fleets shoula be allowed to buy what they want.” FREIGHT TRAIN DERAILED. Springfield, Mass., July 11— Through trains to New York over the Connecticut and Passumsic di- vision of the Boston and Maine rail- road were held up near Claremont Junction, N.

ADVANCED TO OCTOBER. ‘Washington, July 11.—The effective date of the interstate commerce com- mission inter-mountain rate orders, recently sustained by the supreme court, has been advanced to October 1 to enable the railroads to compete and publish the tariffs to be put into effect. Connecticut Progressives and Repub- licans. (New Haven Union.) Will there be a combination of po- litical forces this year in Connecti- cut between the old line republicans and the progressive party is a ques- tion that has been repeatedly talked over by political leaders of all parties in this state for the past few weeks. The individual who has more to do with the plans and the future of the bull moose than any man alive is Colonel Roosevelt. What he says generally goes. There has been no utterance of his since his return from the wilds of South America that would or could be taken as a sure and certain sign that he is in favor of any recognition of republicans. And as the head of the bull moose thinks, so will the progressive leaders of Con- necticut do the same kind of thinking and come to the same conclusion, ‘What is there in the conduct of.ti republican party in Connecticut and in the well known rules that govern the action and plans of the leaders of that party, to lead the pi the state to think there will be slightest change from the past in, policies and principles of the rep! cans this fall when the question, rominations and party platform e up for consideration? Can the progressives get any ance in advance that the republic will be generous enough to part any of the powers and prerogati that have always been exercised that party in Connecticut in the Suppose for instance that the gressives had a first class man the gubernatorial nomination. I conceivable that the republican machine or those in the repub ? party who have all the say such nominations, would pro definitely and conclusively agree 'such a high honer should fall i the lap of the progressive party? There may be progressives full heart and full of hope, who look the complete subjection of the rep lican party to the bull moose in the coming state campaign. There may. be a republican here and there who would welcome for. the sake of pa- tronage and not for the sake of pfin ciple, the unity of the two politieal elements in Connecticut. But stalwarts like Chairman nu‘- back of the republican state commits tee and the determined and aggressive | chairman of the progressive state. committee, are not entertaining suehy delightful political delusions of a alition that will, for example, pe and authorize the progressives * § name the head of the next republie state ticket. Put another supposition before progressives and the republi leaders for consideration. Suppi the progressives should take it i their heads that they should be | lowed to nominate for United Sta scnator and that nominee should that distinguished and learned bl | moose of Hartford, President Lut of Trinity college. Would the repul lican state machine and the republ can leaders who always handle sué political affairs With precision ‘ despatch, and who have made their minds even today that Un¥W States Senator Brandegee is the man for thet nomination, cheerfully wel- come and endorse the plan to name President Luther and as cheerfully: brush into oblivion the name of that: | cla time political fighter Frank Brans | degee? Some of the most delicious reasons ing along this line is going on in this state among enthusiastic republicans crazy to get back the offices and for a return of political power, wh up to the wild hope that there will an amalgamatiion of the two poli cctions this fall. It doesn’t seem. be at all probable, that fs if the twe parties still retain that acknowled mdentnm that has been the of each,
