Washington, May ift ? The re
port of the Senate Inquiry concern
ing the loss of the Whit# star Lln
??r Titanic vu filed
The report Is an eitensive one,
showing that the Senate committee
went. Into the matter In a very
thorough manner
The blame of the disaster is laid
on Captain Smith, who aliow^d his
ship to be driven at its utmost
spewl while In the midst of an Ice
floe, and while In the proiimity of
Ice-bents of whtch he had been
warned.
Captain Lord, master of the
Steamship California Is also blamed
for failure to go to the aaslstancp
of the Titanic when his ship was
notified by wireless that the latter
was In distress.
The Committee report that th?-y
found that there had not be??n mad?*
a proper inspection of the ship be
fore she started on her maiden voy
age to America, and that she lacked
proper safe guards and equipment,
both for use of navigating th* ship
as well as In case of accident.
By this report, America leaves
the burden of punishment of the
guilty ones up to England, and the
report concludes by condemning the
inadequate obsolete marine laws of
Or?*at Britain
