One Year. One_Month, + VOLUME 63. ..NO. 16,501 i NOT WITHOUT HOPE. Sener teeeee eevee of the Seas in the lonely ocean wastes on her maiden voyage | ae appalling disaster which has overtaken the latest Empress | ' to this country is bound to awaken a new and shuddering | interest in the risks of ocean travel. So far, the conclusions to be drawn from the meagre details arc | still faintly, if only faintly, reassuring. That wireless telegraphy has again ecored in saving life on the high seas is, of course, the one obvious fact. Only ten years ago a) great steamer, with 2,200 souls on board, sinking twelvo hundred miles east of this port, with no other vessel within call of flag, rocket or whistle, might have remained forever a horriblo mystery! .. What will strike people unfamiliar with transatlantio travel, “however, is the amazing number of steamships that proved to be . within calling distance of the unfortunate Titanic. Within a few hours of the disaster the Virginian, the Parisian, the Carpathia, tho Baltic and the Olympic were speeding under full steam to the resouc, while the Cincinnati, the Mauretania, the Prinz Adelbert, the Stetr- mark, the Prinz Friedrich Wilhelm and the Amerika were approach- ing from greater distances. Few people can fail to be impressed with the fact that the great ‘Janes of travel from this port to England, Germany and France arc at any given moment astonishingly full of traffic. Danger or disaster may often mean hardly more for s ship than turning for help to the Passere by. ‘ Bat this very density of transatlantic traffic raises another Until the full paptionlars of the catastrophe are known it is both idle and unfsir to discuss whether it could have been prevented. é For the past week, however, it is a fact that incoming eteamers have reported uncommonly heavy end dangerons ico in the regular track. The Niagara of the French Line and the Carmania of the Cunard Line both told of ‘harrowing oxperiences with icebergs ‘and - field ice off the banks of Newfoundland. Now everybody knows that when s vessel is in trouble all steam- ships within a wireless radins co-operate thoroughly, report to each other, indicate positions, pass on meséagés to the shore——continue, in fact, in an almost unbroken wireless conversation. Is there the same co-operation between ships of different lines in reporting frequently and minutely tho position and character of| | ‘co? That every captain of a big steamer geta many messages about ice from other vessels is not for a minute doubted. But does he gct ‘all data from every direction that might be helpful to him in figuring ‘ ‘out what lies ahead? Is there a systematic scheme of this sort work- ing between ships of ail Hines to furnish each captain the fullest in- ‘formation possible? The loss of the Titanic may well lead to a readjustment of spring routes across the Atlantic. That an unusually large end threatening mage of ice has crawled down to the south is apparent from the stories ‘of incoming vessels. Fiven Broadway sailors could smell iceborgs in the sinisier, penetrating chili of the east winds of Saturday and Sunday. ® But until full reports agrive, we on shore can only stend silent and eghast at these terrible and tragic messages borne in from tho * mysterious deep. eee “MAKE WAY FOR THE DOCTOR!” N attempt to give doctors the right of way in hastening to ; A their patients has stirred Paris, The municipal authorSies propose that each doctor | shall have a card or badge which shall serve as @ passport or “rush-| me-through.” In case he is caught in a crowd, or wishes to bourd ® full omnibus, the doctor has only to show hie badge and imme- diately a path opens for him, conductors and policemen bow before him, and every one is expocted to speed him on his errand of meroy and life-saving, It fo bogutiful idea, Parle, however, is not taking kindly to| it, I'he public say they are perfectly willing to have a doctor walk over their heads or shoulders and slip comfortably into the one scat left'in an omnibus if he is really on this errand of mercy and relief.
