He alleged that | | the survivors had the greatest difficul- | ty in getting dry clothing, food, ac- ! commodation or transportation. ' He also stated that the second explosion | on the ship resembled the sound | which would be causéd by ammuni- tion “like a Maxim gun.” Cunard Counsel Reads Letter. Counsel of the Cundrd line read a letter by Prof. Marichal to the com pany after the disaster, in which the writer asked that cash be advanced on his lost baggage or he would give evi- | dence “not to the credit of the eom- pany or the admiralty.” £ “Doesn’t that imply you wanted money to keep your mouth closed?” asked Baron Mersey.

J. OSBORNE NOT SUITOR. ‘Who Accompanied Rae Tanzer to Ho- tel Says Handwriting Expert. New York, July 1.—In the opinion of William J, Kinsley, a handwriting expeért, James W. Oshorne, former as- sistant district attorney of New York was not the suitor who accompanied Rae Tanzer to a hotel at Plainfield, N. J., Octobér 18 last, and registered as “O. Osborne and wife.” Mr. Kins- ley was a witness for the state today | in the trial of David and Maxwell | Slade, the brothers who were Miss Tanzer's lawyers in ‘her $50,000 breach of promise suit against. Mr. Osborne, and of Albert J. McCullough a detective charged with conspiracy. Mr. Kinsley said he had examined and compared Mr. Osborne's signa- ture and the entry on the hotel regis- ter and that he did not think they were written by the same man. On cross examination he acknowledged that he had also examined Oliver Os- borpe's letters to Rae Tanzer ‘and others and was not sure that the man who wrote those letters was the one who had signed the register. The habit of opposition carries Con- gressman Mann, the republican leader in house of representatives, rather to an extreme when he says that Presi- dent Wilson “was swept off his feet by the Lusitania case.” It is chari- table to say that Mr. Mann has re- | turned recently from the Hawalian | 1siands and may not be in touch with | public sentiment on the Lusitania | case. What Mr. Mann would have | dcne in dealing with that affair, had h¢ been prsident, will never be known ——happily. The country has seen no sign that the president who actually Yad to deal with it “was swept off his | feet,” There were a few distinguished men in Mr, Mann's own party who de- manded a much more drastic policy than the president folléwed and who even appeared for the time. being to have lost their heads. The president has kept both his feet and his head,— | &pringfield Republican New Britain Herald The Home Paper of New Britain.
