HM ' While yet the bodies of victims of the Slocum disaster were being | , conveyed from North Brother Island in a steady stream the inquest to fix a the blame for the awful loss of life was convened to-day by Coroner fy Berry. This inquest promises to go on record as the most important pro- } ceeding of te kind ever called in the United States, as it will extend not I q ' only into the liability of the owners and employees of the Knickerbocker Steamboat Company, but into one of the most important branches of the If Government service—the Department of Steamboat Inspection. m Public sentiment demands that the responsibility for the horror be } fixed, and the city authorities who have the investigation in charge feel the weight of their duty. More than two hundred witnesses have been sub- poenaed and the inquiry will penetrate not only to the actions of the cap- | tain and crew of the Slocum, the useless fire apparatus and the rotten life preservers, but to the inspection system of the’ Government that allowed the Slocum to go away from shore a floating death trap. \ gw «CITY A FLAGRANT OFFENDER, : Assistant United States District-Attomey Henry A. Wise, who is rep- resentative for the Government at the Slocum inquest, said before the in- quest started to-day: 3 “New York City authorities are inclined to blame the Federal inspec- tion service for this disaster. 1 want to say that in the last year the city of New York has been fined seven times for violations of Federal laws re- : ) ’ ating to harbor and river craft. The city, now willing to blame the Goy- ‘) ernment, has been the most persistent and flagrant violator. Mayir Mc- Cletlan has been notified and so far has done nothing to correct the negli- gence the Government has discovered on the city’s harbor and river ' boats.” i ! Mayor McClellan denied to-day that he had been notified by the \ Federal authorities of violations of the steamboat laws. “1 do not know that Mr. Wise is 2 United States Assistant District- Attorney, nor am | aware that any notification that the city was violating Uncle Sam’s laws has been sent to me,” said the Mayor. 4 “Do you know of any such notification reaching this office or else- where?” asked the Mayor, turning to Secretary O'Brien, who had just H } entered. “| know of no notice being sent to this office to the effect stated by Mr. Wise,” answered Mr. O’Brien. \ That some of the alleged life-preservers on the Gen. Slocum were es "life destroyers” was asserted to-day by Coroner O'Gorman, just before the opening of the inquest. He made the remark in calling attention to were dragged up from the bottom of the river, Instead of keeping the / misguided persons who depended upon them afloat they acted as sinkers, , The City Record appeared in mourning to-day in memory of the Slocum disaster. The first page of the city’s official newspaper was printed with { > 4imos of deep black separating the columns. ‘There was no editorial com- % ment. i 5 Dockmaster Rooney Sweeney saw a body floating in the river near Coroner O’Gorman Says that on Five’! _ NEW YORK, MONDAY, Ju NE 20. ___ PRICE ON K CENT, Ml LEAPS FROM BROOKLYN BRIDGE Philip Krantz Jumps Into the East River, but Swims to a} < Pier and Is Taken to Hudson Street Hospital.
