James Partlou, manager of the White

"Tho fact that the Titanic Mink to

that most of those saved were women

possibly did not have wireless aboard

I.OXDOX, April 111, "WV hnvo re
ceived no accurate1 news."
This was the only statement forth
eomiiiff here today from officials of
the White Star line in response (o
the fineries of a frenzied and tearful
crowd of relatives of passengers who
sailed from Southampton Inst Wed
nesday on the Titanic. All day lenj:
and well into the niht u loii stream
of anxious persons hcaie;eti tho of
fices but they were jhen nft satis
faction, and tonight Loudon is as
much in the dnrk concerning the
identity of the ictims as it was Inst
night. The White Star company
would give out no information but
occasionally an official would step
outside his oftice and anneunce: "We
have no news yet."
The financial Io-.s to the White
Star company will be staggering. Of
ficials declared thnt when the vessel
was launched it represented nn out
lay of .?r-0(IO,000. In addition the
Titanic carried a consignment of dia
monds estimated to be worth .5.3,000,
000. This loss, however, is practical
ly covered by insurance.
The loss- of the Titanic is the
greatest from a tinuncinl standpoint
in the history of marine iiiMtnince.
The esel itself was insured for .f3.
700.000. An enormous, quantity of
bonds also went down with the steam
er but these eventually will be re
placed. A tremendous; sum is repre
sented in tho loss of baggage belong
ing to passengers, the loss from this
source alone being placed at .2,000,
000. It will not be known for several
dnys whether the underwriters who
carry the policies will he able to meet
their obligations.
Long Line of Hysterical Men, Women
and Children Besiege Offices of

inite Information.

the Disaster.
XFAY YOniC, April lfi. All New
York s Hlunned today by tho appal
ling loss of fife to passengers nboni'd
the wrecked White Star liner Titnnie,
which was supposed to hnvo been
virtually nnsinkable. A long line ot
hysterical men, women and children
betiieged the offices of tho Whito
Star line, begginjr for some definite
information, the company official?,
however, were unable to hold out
hope, explaining that they arc in tho
dark concerning the fatalities, nnil
that nothing will bo definitely known
until the arrival here of the -Virginian
mid the Cnrpathift, the two'oeenu
liners first to reach tho wide of the
ill-fated vessel.
Relatives of the missing passen
gers, as -well its their friends, bitterly
denounce the company charging- th
officials with havm0" deliberately
withheld new of the disaster whim
they were reasonably certain lmt the
Titanic had gone dowirwith "hundreds
of passengers.
The White Star official are bitter
ly censured for issuing fnlne reports
that all passengers had been trans
ferred ami that it was expected that
the Titanic would be towed safely in
to port.
Went Down Llko Men.
Reports received here today indi
cated that the mule passengers, mil
lionaire and peasant alike, went to
their doom like men. The publica
tion of the list of survivors, now
steaming to Xew York aboard the
Cnrpathia, shows that there was no
class distinction, the women in the
steerage being given the same chance
as tho wives of the miilti-milliouuires
