Abandoned the northerly course be-

one farther south. The Intention was
to adhere to it until all danger of ice

were set on foot to improve the ice

graphlc office and to have the danger
rone patrolled by steamers fitted with
the wireless telegraph.
But the memory of the Tltanlc.hor
rors Is becoming dim in the minds
of nearly all except those who saw

hours for them ' traverse. The snme
day two steamers arriving at New
York reported having been compelled
to change their course to avoid a
heavy field of Ice. One berg they saw
was fully 1,000 feet in length.
