The witness read from a great sheaf of w:rrles telegrams received Monday morning. None of them contained any Information of ralue. but It was on thli data that the lino Issued Its statements In an tffort, said Franklin, to reassure Inquirers. latrr. when the news came, he sent Irrmrrttatelr for the reporters and pro ceeded to begin reading to them the lng Marconlgram from the Carpathla slvlng the grewsome news In consider able detail.

Bit by bit Franklin contributed to t!ie Urht the Senate is seeking to throw on the catastrophe that sank the Titanic, sent almost 100 persons to thrlr death, and plunged the world Into mourning. The Inquiry christened the luurlous cauu-room of the Senate room, re garded as perhaps the handsomest ex ecutive hearing-room In the world. In lis renter sat the subcommittee, and. Jammrd about the long table which the committer occupied, wera witnesses and spectators. Among them were Senators and Rep resentatives and their wlTea, Baron Von llengel-Muller. the Austrian Am barsador. and other representatives of diplomatic and official circles, and many women, mostly drawn from the National gathering of the Paughtera Of t:.e American Revolution. Franklin denied that the White Star Company had any Intention to spirit away from the country any Titanic of ficers or crew, or that the plans to return the survivors of the crew were prompted by any desire to suppress the facts, lie said that nothing that the officers or crew could tell would af fect what might be told by surviving jaiengcr. assay Appears Mervaas. There bad been a long delay before the first witness took the stand. Is may. seated at the end of the long tabic, chatted with J. P. Klerleln. one of the officials of the White Star Line. Incessantly he drew upon a sheet of paper be had taken from the press table. The sketch was always the White Star flag, such a flag as was noan at the peak of the Titanic. When Third Officer Boxhali entered the room. Senator Smith asked him to step aside, cautioned the crowd against demonstrations, and called Franklin. He began to question him a to the companies comprising the InUsnattonal Mercantile Marine Company, its connec tions and its capitalization. "You are the real representative In this country of the White Star Line?" t-ntor Smith asked Franklin. "Yes. sir." "Ioes anyone share the responsibility with your "I am mainly responsible." answered Franklin. 'There are directors in this country and meetings are held Ire lUrnily." , Rssiera Base ef Reperta. The reassuring statements snt out by the line in the early hours of the disaster next were made the subject tf inquiry. Tell the committee on what you 1a.nd those statements," directed Sen ator Smith. ' "We based them on reports and ru mors received at Cap Race by Individ uals and by the newspapers. They were rumors and we could not place our fin ger on anything authentic." Had you heard from the Carpathla at that timer "No. sir." Franklin declared the Olympic was rtit this message: "Haddock. Olympic I'.timored here Ti tanic sunk. Cannot confirm here. Ex pect Virginian alongside. Franklin." "At 2:40 o'clock we wired Haddock to endeavor to ascertain the where abouts of Ismay and to advise us as anon as possible." continued Franklin. "We followed thia dispatch with anoth er to Haddock. In which we urged: lo your utmost to ascertain conditloa of Titanic; advise ua fully disposition Titanlc's passenger and where they will be landed.' "At JO Holiday evening." Franklin continued, "a message waa received telling the fateful newa that the Car pathla reached the scene of the Titanic wreck and found nothing but boats and wreckage: that the Titanic had found ered at 1:20 A. (., in 41.1 North. tt).U West: that the Carpathla picked up all the boata and had on board about "S Titanic survivors, passen gers and crew. This message wag from Haddock also. Reverter lsi Roeaa. "It was jtuch a terrible shock that It took me several momenta to think what to do. Then I telephoned two of our directors. Mr. Steele and J. P. Mor gan. Jr. Then I went downstairs to the reporters. I began to read I tie uiuijage. holding It high In my hand. I had read only to the second line, which said that the Titanic had sunk, when there was not a reporter left. They wer so anx ious to get to the telephones. "After that we got another message from Haddock stating that 'Yamsl meaning Ismay. was on the Carpathla." Franklin then explained how the com. pany wired the Olympic to get the names of the survivors and to stand by and relay them from the Carpathla. "I want to say that during the entire Monday, after our rtrst mesnage con cerning the Titanic, w considered the Titanic absolutely unslnkable. We never dreamed of such a thing, and that there had been loss of life never entered our minds until we got Had dock's awful message at t:J that even ing." Senator Smith said he thought the data reaarding the stability of the ship In loaded and damaged conditions should be furnished the committee, and Franklin said he would try to get the figure. t edrle Rrqueet Admitted. "Did you receive at any time, from anv ere. a request that the Cedrlc be held at New York until the arrival of the Carpathla?" "Yef. sir." "Whst time wsj it received?" "At i:13." said the witness, who said the telegram asked that the Cedrlc be held because the sender considered It -most desirable" that the members of the crew be sent back on the Cedrlc. and declared his Intention of sailing on that ship himself. The sender also asked that clothing and shoes be brouaht to the dock for him when the Carpathla got In. "By whom was that signed?" "Yamsi." "Do you know who Yamsl is?" Yea. air; if cipher for Mr. Ismay's signature. I sent In reply the follow ing: " 'Yamsl. Carpathla Have arranged forward crew Lapland sailing Saturday, calling at Plymouth. We ail consider most unwise to delay Cedrlc consider ing circumstances. Franklin." Franklin read all the messages that passed between himself and Ismay on the Carpathla. April 18. These Included a request that he Join the Carpathla at quarantine and sev eral messages urging tnai ine i eang be held. After all these had come In. Franklin sent this wireless message to Ismay: "Think It most-vunwlse to detain Cedrlc In New York." This was followed by a reply from Ismay which Included "unless you have good and sufficient reasons not to hold the Cedrlc. kindly do, so. Franklin then serft a messaa-e ex pressing his regret that the Cedrlc could not be held and added: "Expect to Join you at quarantine. All arrangements made for Carpathla at dock." Franklin said he sent several other message to Ismay, which he thought were not delivered. One was: "Concise Marconlgram giving details Titanic disaster greatly needed for In formation of public and ourselves." That was not answered, he said. Senator Perkins then questioned Franklin as to the safety equipment of the Titanic. "The Titanlc's equipment was In ex cess of the law." said the witness. "It carried Its clearance In the shape of a certificate from the British Board of Trade. I might say that no vessel can leave the British port without a certifi cate that it Is equipped to care for hu man life aboard In case of accident." Senator Bourne took up the question ing. "Has anything been dona with the equipment of your ships as a result of the disaster?" he asked. "Most emphatically." answered Franklin. "On last Friday. Mr. Ismay authorized that all our vessels be. equipped with boats and rafts sufficient to take off every passenger and every member of the crew In case of ac cident." "Were there any searchlights on tha Titanic." said Senator Smith. "Not that I know of. I never heard of searchlights on a trans-Atlantic liner." said Mr. Franklin. Congressional measures "contemplate requiring searchlights on all ocean liners. Mr. Franklin volunteered a statement regarding criticism of the White Star Company for attempting to return the crew of the Titanic to Europe immedi ately. Ciitlelssa !a Aaswered. "I think there haa been an awful mistake about that matter." said Mr. Franklin. "I would like to clear It up. The criticisms have been made that we were trying to keep these men from testifying. That is not so. That was nut the reason at all. "As far as the crew are concerned, it waa our duty to return them to their homes. If they were permitted to roam around here men would besiege them for news, give them presents, take them away and many of them would get lost. "We assured you that we would hold any officera or men that you wanted for this committee. We made that promise to you. Senator Smith, as soon as the boat docked. There was no at tempt on our part to spirit away any member o,f the crew, to the best of my knowledge and belief. "What possble harm could those men do us in an Investigation? "They could not tell any more than the passengers, many of them probably not so much. The worst they could say couldn't help matters." Senator Newlands brought out that the speed of the Tltanlo at the time of the accident was about four miles an hour below that of tha Mauretanla and Lusitanla. "Sone of the commanders I have ever had communication with ever got the Idea from me that our company wanted records broken," said Franklin. wg-o5iirx Mr. Franklin was then excused, out It was Intimated that he would be re called later. J. B. Boxhali then was questioned as to his duties. He said as fifth, sixth, then third and then eventually fourth officer, his duties always consisted In assisting the senior officer In charge. Senator Smith entered upon a Are of questions dealing with the duties of the various . oftlcers. Gradually he worked up to his leading questions. "Were there any drills, or sny In spection before the Titanic sailed?" he asked. Drills Are Meld. "Both.' said the witness. "The men were mustered and the lifeboats low ered in the presence of the inspectors of the Board of Trade." "Did you know of the proximity of Icebergs?" asked Senator Smith. No. sir." Under questioning, however, Boxhali said Captain Smith told him of the position of certain conditions which he marked on the chart. Senator Smith then asked the witness: Sea Tesnperatare Tested. "Do you know whether the. tempera ture rf the water taken from the sea was tested?" "Yes, sir. I saw the quartermaster doing It. He reported tothe Junior of ficer. Mr. Moody." " "Any other officer?" "No but we always made references for them to see. The log contained the temperature." "Did you see the captain frequently Sunday night?" "Yes. sir: sometimes on the tipper deck, sometimes In the chart room, sometimes on the bridge, and some times In the wheelhouse." "Wij the captain on the bridge or at any of the other places when you went on watcn at o'clock?" "No. sir. I first saw the captain about o clock. 'Did jou see ilr. Umay. tvitfl eaptalnon the bridge or In the wheel- house? "N-o lr: not until after the accident. "Did you know when he dined that . . . . j i i WK whom? nignt, wnere uinru, -- - No. sir." Cantata Stays 'ear Bridge. Boxhali said lie did not believe the captain had been away from me vicin ity of the bridge at any time during the watch. "When did you see the captain last? asked Senator Smith. "When he ordered me to go away In the boat." "Did you see what occurred, at the time of the collision V "No, I could not see." "Did you hear?" - . "Yes. the senior officer , said. W e have struck an iceberg." " "Was there any Ice on the deck?" "Just a little on tha lower deck. I heard the sharp report of the crash." "Did you see the iceberg?" .so. sir." "Old it strike the bow or shave It?" "It seemed to me to have struck the bluff of the starboard bow." "Then It was not a square blow on the bow of the ship?'' "No. a glancing blom" "Was It a hard Impact?" "No. It was so slight that I did not think It was serious." Boxhali then went to the bridge, where he found the first officer. Mr. elurdock; the sixth officer, Mr. Moody, and Captain Smith. . Raglaea Are Reversed. Boxhali said the captain asked what was the trouble and the first officer replied they had struck an Iceberg and added that he had borne to star board and reversed his engines full speed after ordering the closing of water-tight doors. "Did you see the Iceberg?" "Yes. sir. I could see it dimly. It lay low In the water and was about as high as the lower rail of the ship or about 30 feet out of. the water." He had great difficulty In seeing the berg, which he said was a dark, gray color. Boxhali said he went down to the steerage. Inspected all the decks In the vicinity of where the ship had struck, found no traces of any damage and went directly to the bridge and so remrfwl. The captain ordered me to send a carpenter to sound the ship, but I found a carpenter coming up with the announcement that the ship was taking water. In the mallroom I found mall sacks floating about while the clerks were at worfc. I went to the bridge and reported and the captain ordered the lifeboats to be ready." After that Boxhali went back to the Iifeboata where- there were many men and women. He said they had life belts. "After that I was on the bridge most of the time sending out distress sig nals trying to attract the attention of boats ahead." he said. "I sent up dis tress rockets until I left the ship, to try to attract the attention of a ship directly ahead. I had seen her lights. She seemed to be nearlng us and was not far away. "She got close enough so she seemed to me to read our electric Morse sig nals. I told the captain. He stood with me much of the time trying to signal her. He told me to tell her In Morse rocket signals, 'Come at once we are sinking.' " "Did any answer come?' "I did not see them, but two men say they saw signals from that ship." "How far away do you think that ship was ?" "Approximately five miles." Boxhali said he did not know what ship It was. "Have you learned anything about that ship since?" "No. some people say she replied to our rockets and our signals, but I did not see it." "By 'some people' whom do you mean?" "Stewards and the captain all said they saw them." "what did you see on me snipT Shlp'n Lights Visible, "First we saw iier masthead lights and a few minutes later, her red side lights. Sha was standing closer." "Suppose you had had a powerful searchlight on the Titanic, could you not have thrown a beam on the vessel and compelled her attention?" "We might." "When you boarded the Carpathla did you see lights on any other life boats?" "No. It was nearly daylight. It was daylight by the time I brought my pas. sengers aboard the Carpathla." Boxhali said that before boarding the Carpathla he saw lanterns In sev eral lifeboats, but could not say that all boats had lights. The witness said he had crossed the Grand Banks many times before, but never had seen field Ice hitherto. "Did you see Ismay when you got Into the lifeboat. "No." "When did you next see Isnay after you left the ship?" v "I saw him In a collapsible boat in the water afterward." "Who else was on It?" "Mr. Carter." "Any other men?" "Yes; I saw some men that looked like Filipinos three -r four of them." "Any women in it?" "Yes. It was full of them: well, not exactly full,- but xthere were many women, most of them foreigners." "How long after you reached the Carpathla did Ismay's boat arrive?" G. Is. S. SMITH XOT OX BOAKD Oregon 'Woolgrowtrr Failed to Sail on Titanic. ' BAKEK. Or., April7 12.

It was said by leaders that 34,000 men would be affected by a strike or der. Of these. 25,700 are members of the Brotherhood of Locomotive Engi neers and about t500 are Brotherhood of Firemen and Enginemen, who, the engineers declare, will Join the strike. The rest are non-union men. who. Chief Stone said, have joined in the strike vote passed by the Brotherhood. The engineers' demand for Increased pay was made upon all the railroads concerned January 12, and a commit tee of general managers was appoint ed to confer In New York with Chief Stone and a board of BO officers of the Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers. Increase Means 97,833,000 a Year. At the first conference In March the railroad committee announced that the demands. If granted, would add to their payrolls $7,653,000 a year, or an In crease of 17.63 per cent. Ten days later the railroads formally rejected the demands, asserting that granting the increase would be tantanmount to placing . on the properties a lien of 3188,844,000, which would have prefer ence over the first mortgage bonda and lessen the ability of the roads to make additional Improvements and Install additional safeguards. It also was stated that the railroads were not making sufficient net earn ings to warrant the Increase; and that the increase, if granted, would be fol lowed by demands of other employes which would result in actual bank ruptcy of some roads. n.1.3 Per Cent Favor Strike. On March 26 Mr. Stone and his lieu tenants voted to order a strike ballot, the question being whether the engi neers would authorize a strike If fur ther negotiations with the railroads should fall. The result of the vote, as announced April 12, was in favor of a strike by a percentage of 93.3 of the 25,700 votes cast. Since then other attempts to arrive at an agreement proved futile and cul minated today In a letter from the con ference committee of managers which stated that they "could see no way of modifying the conclusion previously announced." On receipt of this letter Mr. Stone decided that a strike would be called within 36 hours. A short time after ward he received the letter offering mediation. , Many Roads Affected The railroads affected by the strike Include the following: Baltimore & Ohio; Boston & Albany; Boston & Maine;- Central New Eng land; Chicago, rndlanapolls & Louis ville; Chicago, Terre Haute & South eastern; Chicago, Indiana & Southern; Cincinnati, Hamilton & Dayton; Cleve land, Cincinnati, Chicago & St. Louis; Delaware, Lackawanna & .

TERMINAL DEPOT, A TRUST Court Says St. Louis Association Must Let Others In. WASHINGTON, April 22. The Term inal Railway Association of St. Louis and 14 railroads entering that city and owning the terminal company were to day held by the Supreme Court of the United States to be a combination oper ated In violation of the Sherman anti trust law to control transportation across the Mississippi River at St. Justice Lurton announced the deci sion. He said it was not contended that avery terminal company in every city was a violation of the Sherman law. It might be a facility instead of a restraint on interstate commerce. Topographical conditions at St. Louis, Justice Lurton said, made It imprac ticable for any railroads to reach St. Louis without using the terminal across the Mississippi. The combina tion of the three crossings owned by the terminal company, he said, gave control over competition. In addition, he said, the terminal com pany had power to exclude all railroads from the city. The Justice said the court based its decision on these facts, and that the combination must be struck down unless it acted as the "Im partial agent" of all. The company was given a fixed time In which to reorganize in accordance with express conditions set forth by the court. GOULD GETS PRESIDENCY E. H. Britten Heads St. Louis South western Railroad.
