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

Farta Vradaally Asaaaaed.
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

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."

' "We based them on reports and ru

"No. sir."
Franklin declared the Olympic was
rtit this message:
"Haddock. Olympic I'.timored here Ti

"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

"It was jtuch a terrible shock that It

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

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?"

ers as critical, but by others as prom
ising some sort of adjustment.,
84,000 Men Affected.
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;

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.
