Warren Tells in Detail, "the Story of the Titanic ' BOAT'S SPEED TERRIFIC Experiences, Before and After Ves sel Went Down, Told in I ntcr estlnff Manner tihock. Will Ijist for Lite. Mr. Frank M. Warren, one of the urrlrora of the wrecked steamship Titanic, has arrived home aper now Is resting; as comfortably as could pos sibly b expected after her frightful experience, but the shock Is one from which she can never fully recover, romlci home with her daughter from New York, her aon remained to watch for fhe recovery of the body of his father and Is now In Halifax. awaiting the arrival if the Mackay-Hennett with the bodies that have been found. To her family Mrs. Warren made the following: statement of her experi ences previous to and following the disaster: "We started from Cherbourg on the evening of the 10th. proceeding to Wueenstown. at which port we ar rived about noon of the 11th. and after a delay of about 45 minutes con tinued on our voyajce. From the time of leaving? (Jueanatovn until the time of the accident, the trip was remark ably smooth and It was very bright and sunny except for- about half an hour of foar on one occasion. "The vessel on the first day out from Qneenstown. that Is from noon of tnc 11th to noon of the 12th, made. It was reported. 494 miles. On the second day. from noon of the 12th to noon of the 13th. about 619 miles, and on the third day. from noon of the 13th to noon of the llth 54S miles. Greater Sawed fsenei. "The general Impression prevailing aboard the vessel was that the speed on the fourth day would be better than that shown on any preceding day and that we would arrive In New York some time Tuesday afternoon. The Im pression also prevailed among the pas sengers that the course of the vessel was more southwest than due west, the supposition being that this vis to avoid fog. On Sunday, the day of the accident, the weather was particularly beautiful; there were no clouds, the sea was smooth and the temperature very moderate throughout the day. "After dinner In the evening and un til about It P. M. we were seated la the lounge on the dining- saloon deck, listening to the music. About the time stated we went to one of the upper .ierks. where Mr. Warren wanted to take a walk, as was his custom before retiring. He did not, however, as the temperature had fallen very consider ably and the air was almost frosty, although the night was perfect, clear and starlight. "We retired about 10:30. ship's time, and went to sleep Immediately. About 11:43. ship's time, we were awakened by a terrible crash, followed by & grinding noise and the stoppage of the vessel. Our room was on the starboard side of deck D, about SO feet above the water ar.d In line with the point of Impact. lee Held aa Sonrealr. "I arose Immediately, turned the lights on and asked Mr. Warren what terrible thing had happened. He said. 'Nothing at all.' but Just at that mo ment I heard a man across the corridor say. 'We have certainly struck an Ice berg.' "I then asked Mr. Warren to go and see what was the matter. Ho first started out partly dressed, but decided to dress fully before going out: after doing which he went to one of the cor ridors and returned In a very few min utes with a piece of Ice. ssylng It had been handed him as a souvenir. "By that time I had dressed and had laid out the life belts but Mr. Warren said there was absolutely no danger and that with her water-tight com partments the vessel could not possibly sink and that in all probability the only effect the accident would have would be the delaying of our arrival In New York three or four days. "We felt, however, too restless to re main In our room, so went out in the corridor again and talked with both the employes of the vessel and passen gers. The general opinion prevailing was that there was no danger except for the expression on the part of one man who stated that the water was romlng In below forward. Beat's Oealgarr Seared. "Following this, we then went to our rooms, put on all our heavy wraps and went to the foot of the grand staircase nn deck D. again Interviewing passen gers and crew aa to the danger. While standing there a Mr. Perry, I think hTs name was. one of the designers of the vessel, rushed by. KOlng up the stairs. He was asked if there was any lancer but made no reply. "But a passenger who was after wards saved told me that his face had on It-a look of terror. Immediately after this the report became general that water was In the squash courts, which were on the deck below where we were standing, and that the bag gage had already been aubmerged. Just at this potnt a steward passed, order ing all to don life belts and warm clothing and go to the boat derk at nn-e. saying that this move was sim ply a precautionary measure. "According to my Impression, the time was now about 46 minutes after the accident. We went back to our room for a third time, seized the life elts and hastened to a point two decks above, where an officer assist ed In adjusting our life belts. We saw in front of the purser's office ship's papers and valuables laid out and 1 asked If we could take any thing with us. but was told not. Ieek Fejml la IMtkiru. Continuing up to the boat deck we tried to tret out on the port side, but were unable to open the door. No ticing the starboard door standing open we went out that way. This boat deck was the top deck of the ves sel, uncovered and only a few houses on it. such as contained the gymnasium, a lounge, etc. "At the time we reached this deck there were very few passengers there, apparently, but it was dark and we .ould not estimate the number. There was a deafening roar of escaping steam, of which we had not been con scious while inside. The only people we remembered seeing, except a young woman by the name of Miss Ostby. who had become t-eparated from lier father and was with ns. were Mr. Astor. his wife and servants, who were standing near one of the boats which wss being t les-e preparatory to being lom-ered. The Ajtors did not get into this boat. They all went back inside and I saw nothing of them again until Mrs. Astor was taken onto the Carpathla. "We discovered that the boat next to the one the Astors had been near had been lowered to the level of the deck, so went towards it and were told by the officer in charge to get in. At this moment both men and women came crowding towards the spot. I was the second person assisted In. X supposed that Mr. Warren had fol lowed, but saw when I turned that he was standing back assisting the women. Wife Thinks Huabaad Safe. "People came In so rapidly in the darkness that It was Impossible to dis tinguish them, and while I did not see him again, I thought that he also was In, as there seemed to be still room for more when the boat was lowered. There were, according to my recollec tion, either 35 or 3S people In the boat, and I was not aware that Mr. Warren was not with us until afloat and his name was called with no response. "The boat in which 1 rode was com manded by Officer I'ittman and manned by four of the Titanic'a men. The low ering of the craft was accomplished with great difficulty. First one end and then the other was dropped at ap parently dangerous angles, and we feared that we would swamp as soon as we struck the water. "After the lifeboat was safely afloat great difficulty was experienced in finding a knife with which to cut the lashings of the trigger to relieve the boat from the falls. When we reached the water the ship had settled so that my Impression was that I was looking through the portholes Into staterooms on deck D. which we had formerly oc cupied, and as we pulled away we could see that the Titanic was settling by the head with a heavy list to star board. Til sale Slaks Rapidly. "Mr Plttman's orders were to pull far enough away to avoid suction If the ship sank. The sea was like glass, so smooth that the stars were clearly reflected. We were pulled quite a dis tance away and then rested, watching the rockets In terrible anxiety and real ising that the vessel was rapidly sink ing, bow first. She went lower and lower, until the lower lights were ex tinguished, and then suddenly rose by the stern and slipped from sight about 1:10. We had no light on our boat and were left In Intense darkness save for an occasional glimmer of light from other lifeboats and one steady green light on one of the ship's boats which the officers on the Carpathla after wards said was of material assistance In aiding them to come direct to the spot. While drifting around, another boat came alongside us and reported, as I rember. S4 or 15 passengers aboard and but one of the Tltanlc's crew and no light. "Later In the night we thought we saw lights In the distance. Indicating a vcsdol. and these afterwards proved to be the Carpathla. but at the time we had not expected to be picked up until the arrival of the Olympic, which we knew would be on band some time In the afternoon and was the only ship of which we had any knowledge. Many Icebergs Seem. "With daylight the. wind Increased and the sea became choppy, and we saw Icebergs In every direction; some lying low In the water and others tall, like ships, and some of us thbught they were. Our boat was picked up aooui 4:10 A, M. by the Carpathla, and too much cannot be said of the courtesy, kindness and unceasing care of the officers, crew and passengers of this vessel, who worked from morning until night and almost from night until morning In the relief of the survivors. "I was in the second boat picked up. Others were adrift many hours longer and consequently suffered more. Thi captain of the Carpathla stayed until there were no more boats to pick up and he felt he must get out of the Ice before sundown. We leit tne scene m the disaster about noon with the Call fornlan still standing by. and as we turned back, as far as I could see In all directions, was a continuous floe of Ice. marked by detached Icebergs. It was well along towards night before we were clear of this field. "The feeling among the rescued pas sengers was tuai. tnc irouit oc--, - th. Titanic and the lack of reasonaoie precautions were largely responsible for the accident. No Boat Drills Held. "I did not know, and to my knowledge It was not known by the survivors until their arrival in New York, that a warn ing had been given Captain Smith of the presence of bergs and that not-, withstanding this the speed was not lessened. Anotlier thing avhlcli caused me a great deal of anxiety while on the Titanic was the absence of drills. In my previous experience on the sea It had been customary, at least on Sun day, for the crew to be mustered to the boat for fire or boat drills, but this waa not done on the Titanic. "From the time of the accident until I left the ship there was nothing which in any way resembled a panic, and I believe that a panic would have been impossible, owing to the Immense sixe of the vessel, but there seemed to be a sort of aimless confusion and an ut ter lack of organized effort. "Mr. Llghtholder. one of the officers of the Titanic who went down with the vessel, but afterwards was saved, told me that Colonel Oracle assisted him In cutting loose one of the life rafts and In pushing it overboard. Both were carried down with the vessel by the suction, .but afterwards found safety on the same raft which they had pre viously cleared. "I was also told by other survivors that several rafts, the lashings of which were never cut, were carried down with the vessel. "These and, of course, many other stories and rumors were current among thepasengers as to the different facts and happenings." B. C.

LETTER SENT TO CLARK PORTLAND WOMEN' COXGRATC LATE ALASKA GOVERNOR. Campaign Committee 1.4 Working: for Solid Front in Eqnal Suffrage From Pacific Coast. The Woman's Club campaign com mittee addressed a letter yesterday to Walter E. Clark. Governor of .Alaska, in which they congratulate him upon the recent act of Congress giving Alaskan voters the privilege of en franchising the women. The letter reads: Esteemed Sir Greetings to the men snd congratulations to the women of Alaska upon the act of Congress which gives the men of Alaska the privilege of enfranchis ing Its women. Women were among the first to endure the hardships of early Alaskan settlement and assisted in building up a splendid empire from what the world considered a waste of snow and Ice. Considering this, the men who will form Alaska's first Legislature could do nothing better than to grant "votes for women" and thus give a'l the people of Alaska home rule. With the women of Alaska and Oregon en franchised the raclfle Coast will present an unbroken line where all the people rule It was Abraham Lincoln who said, more than half a century ago.

R., last night took the initial steps toward the formation of a Loyal Legion of Loyalists, the em blem of which will be the American flag. The veterans have been loud In their upbraiding of the agitators and So cialists who have upheld the red flag and reviled the Stars and Stripes. The formation of the Loyalist Legion last night was accompanied by the adoption of a resolution calling upon newspapers of the country to publish accounts of their action, also urging every true American man, woman and child to wear a flag or the National colors and to frown down any attempt to defame the flag or the Constitution.
