THE GRAND STAIRWAY OF THE TITANIC FORCE OTRAINS Titanic in Crash Had Pressure i of 13,500,000 Tons. NO SHIP COULD STAND IT Glancing Blow Sank Vessel, According to Experts. CLIPPED RIVETS OFF SIDES Water-Tight Compartments Thus of Admiral Andrews and H. P. Frear.

Engineers figured today that when the Titanic hit the ice she struck with a force equal to that of thirty-seven Empire State express trains traveling at the rate of seventy miles an hour. With her cargo and passengers, the Titanic had a displacement of about 60.000 tons. Because of the danger of the locality it is thought she proceeded at a speed of about fifteen knots an hour. Figuring on the basis accepted by naval architects and engineers, the Titanic struck the iceberg with an Impact force of tons. If the Empire State express had struck the same object the force of the impact would be approximately 387,500 tons, it is declared.

A naval architect said today that no ship ever built could withstand such a terrific strain. The force of the blow thought to have been dealt to the bow plates of the Titanic, it Is said, in all probability caused her longitudinal plates, from end to end, to shear off and clip every rivet in her sides. This would open up every water-tigM compartment in the vessel, say experts If the rivets which held the forward plates of the Titanic could be recovered. It Is said, thej would be found to have been clipped off as neatly as If the work had been done by a skilled mechanic. Berg Probably Was Submerged.

Another possible cause of the rapid sinking of the big steamship by experts is that she grounded on a submerged Iceberg, tearing off her keel plates and thus opening up the water-tight compartments. Another authority said he hart talked with the captains of several hhlps and that most of them had given this their version. He said there were many things which might happen to a ship in collision with a huge iceberg. He likened such a collision to one with a block of granite the same sixe as the berg, and said that in all of his experience as a designer and builder of ships he has never known of any method of ship construction which could make a strong enough to withstand the force of such a collision. Chance after chance, furtively clung to, that the Titanic horror had been somehow averted has been dispelled, and the terrible truth is that the greatest marltime tragedy in history Is a fact, and that more than 1,400 persons have been swallowed up in the hungry Atlantic.

The most optimistic have at last been forced to realise that there la little hope left. Glancing Blow Sank Ship. The only chance that some of the missus may have been rescued is that they been picked up by passing Ashing craft. The chance is but slim, for. at only a few could be saved by such agencies.

It certain that ths Titanic struck a gigantic iceberg a glancing blow, staving In all her forward watertight bulkheads, and causing her to careen beneath the waves within four hours after the ciasli. A few hundred of her passengers, on board lifeboats, were picked up later. The icebergs are most dangerous at this time of year." said Rear Admiral Philip Andrews. S. N.

"A glancing blow against one of the large ones Is the only thing which could have caused aueh a ship as the Titanic to founder. She muld have struck almost anything and still kept afloat." Sides Hard to Protect. SAN FRANCISCO, April the tanic was sunk by a lateral tearing and by a head-on collision is the opinion 4 Hugo F. Frear, designer of the battle? ip Oregon, and among the experts in naval construction on the Pacific coast. The sides of a vessel are the most dlfHr'llt to protect." said Frear.

"They are the most vulnerable spots in a steamfillip's anatomy, and it is my opinion that Ihe Titanic struck the Iceberg from an angle. A head-on collision could scarcely Jiave done the damage necessary to sink the vessel." SUITCASE RECOVERED. a Property of Gov. Wilson Which Was Stolen Ten Days Ago. CHICAGO, April Wood row tvilson's suit case, which was stolen from "lis rooms in a downtown hotel here ten ays ago.

X. FACING ANXIOUS DAY Victims' Friends Throng New York Offices of Line. H. W. TAFT IS A CALLER President's Brother Inquires for News of Washingtonians.

TO MEET RESCUED AT PIES Relatives of Victims Proceeding to Futrelle May Be Survivor. NEW YORK, April anxious throng of relatives and friends of passengers of the unfortunate Titanic faced another day of heartbreaking apprehension and uncertainty as they gathered in additional numbers at the White Star line offices this morning. All through the night groups of people awaited in the White Star Company's rooms and about the sidewalk in front of the building for additional names to the lis't of known survivors. The names of Col. John Jacob Astor, Isidor Straus, the millionaire merchant; George B.

Widener of Philadelphia; Maj. Archibald aid to President Taft; Francis Millet, the American artist; William T. Stead, the London journalist; Benjamin Guggenheim and Col. and Mrs. "Washington Roebling are among the more prominent missing from the list of the saved.

Inquiries concerning their fate were being constantly made by callers at the White Star, offices and scores of telephone and telegraphic communications were received from all parts of the country. Taft Awaiting News. President Taft instructed the company to notify him Immediately whenever they hear anything regarding Maj. Butt. This morning the Marconi wireless company reported that they had received no communication from the Carpathia, and that if atmospheric conditions were favorable they expected to get in communication with the steamer through the Slasconset station probably late this afternoon.

Henry W. Taft, brother of the President, called at the White Star offices this morning seeking news of Maj. Butt, the President's aid. and of Karl Behr, the tennis player, and Prank D. Millet, the artist, both friends of Mr.

Taft. He held a flve-mlnute conference with Vice President Franklin of the White Star line, but learned nothing. To Meet Carpathia at Pier. April residents of Montreal who had relatives aboard the Titanic are on their way to New York today to meet the Carpathia. Among them are Dr.

F. C. Douglas, whose wife was reported among those rescued; James Baxter, whose brother, Quigley Baxter, has not 'been accounted for, and Dr. James Qoodarte, who Is going to New York to attend Mrs. Baxter, one of the rescued women, whose health was poor when she boarded the Titanic.

The assertion sent out from here yesterday that C. M. Hays, president of the Grand Trunk Railway, was safe, which information cannot now be substantiated, was indorsed by the three evening papers yesterday. The Herald Interviewed Plere Davidson, brother of Thornton Davidson, the latter being son-in-law of C. M.

Hays, and a passenger on the Titanic, who said he had received a cable saying the Hays party was safe. The Star published a statement at 4 o.m. that Mr. Hays was safe, this information being secured by the Grand Trunk agent in New York by telephone and handed over by Grand Trunk officials here. The witness interviewed Judge Davidson, father of Thornton Davidson, who said he had received a private message from the vice president of the White Star line In New York.

Mr. Franklin, that all the Montrealers were safe. Jacques Putrelle Saved. April list of surviv of the Titanic disaster as given out by the White Star line offices here contains the names of both Mr. and Mrs.

Jacques Fntrelle of Boston. Previous lists published here contained the name of Mrs. Futrelle only. Another new name appearing on the list of second-class passengers is that of Miss Finney. The name of Charles M.

Hays, president of the Grand Trunk railway, does not appear on the line's list. NO NEWSYETOF bummoore (Continued From First Page.) his to whom he was married about eighteen months ago, resides. Mrs. Woody is a niece of Mrs. Harry Warren, wife of the headquarters detective Warren of this city.

Mr. Woody's last visit to his home, Mrs. Warren said today, was about a month ago. His name is not in the list of those saved. On Honeymoon Tour.

Lucien P. Smith, son-in-law of Representative James A. Hughes of West Virginia, was returning with his young bride from a honeymoon trip abroad. In the list of Titanic passengers reported on board the Carpathia appears the name of Mrs. Luclen P.

Smith, but her husband's name is not in the list. Mrs. Smith wks Miss Eloise Hughes. She was married in February, a few months after her coming out party, one of the elaborate social functions of the early winter, at the New Willard. She is not yet twenty years old.

Her husband was a member of a prominent and wealthy West Virginia family and was related to the du Ponts of Delaware. They planned a honeymoon trip around the world, but changed their plans and notified the families that they were returning home. The fact that their names were not on the original passenger list of the Titanic is accounted for by their having been in France, boarding the liner at Cherbourg. Some doubt still remains as to the fate of Francis D. Millet, the artist and member of the fine arts commission, although it is believed that the name "Mile," which appears on the roster of the rescued, is in reality that of Mr.

Millet. Mrs. Churchill Candee Safe. A late addition to the list of Waahlngtonians now on board the Carpathia Is Mrs. Churchill Candee of 1718 Rhode Island avenue northwest.

Mrs. Candee went on board the Titanic at Cherbourg. Although her name is in the latest revised list of the saved, her son, Harold Candee, up to this morning had received no word from her. Mra. Candee has been abroad since early in the year, accompanying Boston relatives.

They have been in southern Italy and more latterly made the trip up the Nile. It was announced a few weeks ago that she was about to return for the spring season in this city. The Misses Young Safe. Miss Marie Grice Young and Miss Margaret Wilson Young, who are among the rescued, formerly lived in Washington. The former is the daughter of the late Samuel Grice Young.

She is a finished musician, having been the private teacher of Miss Ethel Roosevelt, and is a close personal friend of Mr. and Mrs. Thomas Nelson Page. The young women are nieces of the late Gov. Shepherd.

It is learned definitely, as announced in The Star, that Col. Archibald Gracie was rescued and is on board the Carpathia, as is Mrs. Henry B. Harris. Miss Helen Gracie, daughter of Col.

Gracie, will leave this evening for New York, to meet her father when the Carpathia arrives. Mrs. Gracie la supposed to be in New York, where, it is saia. she went a few weeks ago, for an indefinite stay. Senator Guggenheim in New York.

Senator and Mrs. Guggenheim of Colorado left today for New York, in order to be on the scene when the survivors of the disaster arrive In port. The senator's brother. Benjamin Guggenheim, is among the Titanic's 'missing and the family has given up practically all hope. All of the Guggenheims will be in New York this afternoon.

Senator Guggenheim has kept in close touch with the situation by long distance telephone and through the "White Star line representatives here. Government Marine Officers Thus See Titanic Accident. DEMANDS HELD SENSELESS More Lifeboats, Fewer Palm Oardens Best, Declares Uhler. SHIP'S HEADWAY GREAT Could Not Have Stopped Unless Iceberg Was Sighted Mile Away. "Nearly 1,500 lives lost, a needless sacrifice to the senseless demand for.

speed and luxury." This is the brief summing ujp of the disaster that sent the Titanic to the bottom of the Atlantic in two miles of water, "according to the statements of men in vartoifs branches of the United States government's marine service and others. "Had the Titanic had more lifeboats and ifewcr palm gardens and sun parlors it is probable all the passengers and crew could have been taken off," said George Uhlef, chief of the United States steamboat inspection service. Representative Alexander, chairman of the committee on merchant marine and fisheries, declared that the management of the Atlantic steamship lines lose sight of everything but the financial end of the business of carrying passengers across the ocean. "Chasing the Dollar." "The steamship companies are chasing the almighty dollar. In the chase they are neglecting the safety of their passengers, and instead of providing their i ships with enough lifeboats to care for all the passengers and crew, they furnish promenade decks, tennis courts, cafes, swimming pools and the like.

More boats and fewer amusements would make the big linerB better places to be In case of wrecks, even such as the catastrophe that sent the Titanic to the bottom." Capt. P. H. Uberroth, assistant to the commandant of the revenue cutter service, blames the modern demand for speed for the destruction of the Titanio and the loss of'hundreds of her passengers. Even at a speed of eighteen knots an hour, said Capt- Uberroth, a vessel the sise of the Titanic would find it almost impossible to avoid collision with an ice floe unless the danger was discerned while the ship was still a mile or more from the ice.

Speed i and the sise of the vessel, were the' prime i causes of the calamity, he said. The i liner's tremendous weight, he said, made her headway so great as to render useless any effort to bring her to a sudden stop by reversing the engines, while her length and depth gave a leverage against the water that the drag of the huge rudder across her stern and the operation of propellers working against one another could not overcome in any short distance. Tremendous. "The Titanic," said Capt. Uberroth, "was so big that It was impossible for her officers to avoid collision with an Iceberg or other similar object without lights on a dark night.

They might sight the Iceberg some distance away, perhaps enough to save a smaller vessel, but a ship of the Titanic sise would not answer to the helm promptly enough to avoid collision. She could not reverse her engines and back off. Such an attempt would be futile unless the berg was sighted a mile ahead, for going at full speed, approximately twenty miles an hour, she could not be brought to a stop and reversed. She carried tremendous headway with her powerful engines and great sise. Berg of Shore Ice.

Capt. Charles McAllister, chief engineer of the revenue cutter service, and an expert on construction, said: "The Titanic was believed to be the acme of marine safety. She was of extraordinarily heavy and strong construction. I believe she struck the ice Svith sufficient impact to crush in her bow and forward bulkhead, and perhaps one other. "In that case many things could happen.

It is possible the watertight bulkheads gear refused to work, was thrown out of running order by the force of the collision. Even in that event the Ttanic would have been some time sinking, because she was credited with being almost unslnkable. Then, too, it is possible that her bulkheads could not withstand the pressure. On our battleships there is a control lever for all bulkheads that the captain can work from the bridge in anticipation of collision. "I am confident the berg rammed by the Titanic was not glacier ice, but was one of the shore icebergs formed by the extremely cold winter.

It is too early for berg Ice. According to Patterson's Nautical Encyclopaedia, if It were shore ice of salt water, nine-tenths of Its bulk was below water. This would mean that if there were only twenty feet showing above the surface, a small speck compared to the Titanic, the berg would have a total depth of 200 feet, with 180 feet below the surface. Ice conditions are worse this year than they have been for a decade." Representative Sulser of New York joined in the expression of the belief that the modern demand for speed, the characteristic American disregard of danger and the present-day requirements of luxuries unheard of a dozen years ago, or less, united to bring about the destruction of the Titanic and those who went to the bottom with her. "I am convinced," said Mr.

Sulzer today, "that there was no excuse for the Titanic'e striking an Iceberg. I have been in the arctic regions many times. I have spent days and nights in the fishing smacks on the (Newfoundland banks. Vessels that go among Icebergs for days and nights at a time seldom if ever hit them. If they do, they do not injure themselves badly.

"The reason is simple. In the first place It is absolutely foolish for a vessel to steam at a High rate of speed, at a rate fast enough to cause injury in case she strikes there is danger of ice being anywhere around. But the big vessels go ahead in their mad race for speed records, regardless of who or what 1s in their path." Parliament May Probe False Wireless Reports. NEWSPAPERS ARE WRATHY Private of Air Blamed foi Wrong Hews of Disaster. SAFETY STATUTES CRITICISED Larger and Motor-Driven Lifeboat! Star Is Scored.

April indignation is expressed in connection with the publication of the telegrams that the Titanic was in tow of the Virginian Just after the news of the accident received. Col. Charles EX Yate, a member of parliament for Leicestershire, will ask the president of the board of trade in the house of commons if his attention has been drawn to the publication of the telegrams and whether their origin Could be traced. London Papers Aroused. The London Standard prints today the following under the head, "A Mystery of the News! Who Sent the Wlreess Falsehoods?" of the mysteries In connection with the Titanic disaster which at present is unsolved is the extraordinary series of false messages with which the world was lulled into fancied security Monday.

"For sixteen hours, until 1 o'clock ay morntog, right through the editions of the evening papers and earlier editions of the morning, a flood of alleged wireless messages was received. They reported that all passengers had been saved; that the TiIfrim under her own that she could not Kpossibly slrk; that twenty boatloads of transhipped to the rislan. the Parisian and Carpathla were both in attendance; that the the Titanic toward her: that all passengers had been taken off.

The London Daily Mail says: "The question must be raised, in view of this terrible event, where are the board of trade regulations sufficient for the protection of passengers and crew? Those regulations appear to have been framed on lines which have regard only for conditions of the past.

They require no larger provision of boats for a liner of 30,000 tons than for one of 10,000." HOUSE EXPRESSES SORROW. Resolution Adopted Regarding Loss of Life in Titanic Disaster. The House yesterday unanimously adopted a resolution of condolence to the relatives of those who lost their lives on the Titanic. The resolution, which was offered by Representative Austin of republican, follows: "Resolved, That this House has heard with profound regret and sorrow of the appalling loss of life on the steamship Titanic and expresses Its deep sympathy for the relatives of those who perished in that great disaster." MANNER IN WHICH TITANIC WAS WRECKED (1) shows normal "trim" or balance of a ship with the dead weight centered midship. shows head-on collision with northern or steep side of Iceberg.

(3) shows effect of head-on collision with northern side of iceberg. The bow is crushed in and off, leaving little Br no'dead weight at the stem, and affecting the "trim" or balance of the vessel only slightly, so that it may back off and keep afloat for a long time, perhaps even make port under Its own steam, unless Its seams have been opened by the shock. But even if its seams are opened its powerful pumps can keep it afloat for long time as long as it is not "thrown out of trim." (4) shows vessel running up the southern or sliding side of an Iceberg. Though the shock of this collision is less than the shock of the head-on collision with the northern side of the berg, this latter collision is really by far the most dangerous, because it tears the bottom plates out without necessarily tearing off the upper parts. The captain of a ship in a collision of this kind may make up his mind that the inner as well as the outer bottom of his ship has been torn open, and in that case his only course of safety is to hug on to the iceberg with his anchors, if possible, or by slow revolutions of his propellers, in hopes of keeping afloat until his passengers are saved.

The comparative ease with which a ship runs up the sliding side of an Iceberg may, however, deceive a captain Jnto the belief that his ship can be saved if he backs off quickly to prevent his inner bottom from being crushed in. (5) shows effect on a ship after it has run up the sliding and submerged part of an iceberg; has torn out her double bottom, backed off, filled the fore part of her hold, which then becomes dead weight and throws the vessel two-thirds out of "trim" or balance. (0) shows the dead weight of the damaged vessel bearing the vessel down by its bow in its attempt to adjust itself to its new "trim," without finding its balance until its stern also is lifted out of water fend also becomes dead weight. So the whole impulse of the ship downward and all buoyancy is destroyed. OCEAN DEPTHS WHERE THE TITANIC SUNK.

LATEST CORRECTED LIST OF THE TITANIC'S SURVIVORS CAPE RACE, Newfoundland, April 1 The steamship Carpathia, which Is beUeved to have on board all the survivors of the Titanic disaster, yesterday sent by wireless to this station the list of those saved. Great difficulty was experienced in getting many of the names correctly, and more than a score of names as made out here did not appear at all on the Titanic's original passenger list, but it is believed that many of these were passengers who had booked at the last moment. More than six hours' effort was required for the receipt of the list of the first-cabin survivors.
