Naval gunners sent on a special train from this city shot a line across the bow of the partly submerged ship, hut waited in vain for it to be hauled •board. ' 3ust before darkness blotted the wreck from view five men, driven from the forecastle by the giant seas, were Bern to climb the forward rigging, sig­ naling feebly for help. But when they failed to make fast the line it was tented that they had succumbed to the cold and exposure. Those five were the only ones visible on boahi several hours after the ship struck. Included among the passengers were 12 women and four children. Among the first cabin passengers were John Shannon Munn, a managing director of ~ the firm of Bowring Brothers. Limited, • agents of the liner, and his three-year- old daughter, Betty. They were going to New York to meet Mrs. Munn and Sir Edgar Bowring, one of the owners of the line, far a visit of two months IB Florida. Six cadets of the Royal FlfTffff'corps, on their way from Newfoundland to Join their commands, were aboard. The body of one member of the detachment, Fred Snow, was included among the •even washed ashore. Another Newfoundland officer who it Ir; feared was lost was Maj. Michael Sullivan, commanding the Newfound­ land forestry battalion, returning to his battalion, which now is cutting tfebber In Scotland. bapt Joseph Kean, one of the best commanders of the Newfoundland sealing fleet, also sailed on the Flor- tsel for Halifax, where he was to take over his ship, the Sable, In readiness ; fof the peal fisheries next month. Thomas McNeil, head of the McMurdo Drag company, and Fred Smythe. man­ ager of the Newfoundland Woolen mills, were others in the passenger list. All but three of the passengers were natives of Newfoundland. Three com­ mercial travelers--a Mr. Stevens of New York, W. W. Dauphinee of Mon­ treal and O. P. Beileveau of Toronto- were on their way home. The Florizel, which had carried Canadian troops overseas, was built es­ pecially to withstand northern gales, t Capt. W. J. Martin, one of the fore­ most skippers in the Newfoundland trtide, took the Florizel out of St. Johns and almost immediately ran into a ter­ rific blizzard, with all the accompani­ ments of blinding snow and a heavy gale, reaching at times to hurricane force. • -There is only conjecture as to how «*e Florizel got out of her course, v "" The Florizel piled up on a ledge two miles from Broad Cove, north of Cape Race, at a point sparsely populated and with no life-saving apparatus: available, even If it had been possible . to use it. %&hWILL H.

AIRPLANES TO FRANCE LIBERTY MACHINES COMPLETED AHEAD OF SCHEDULE. Secretary Baker Declares America's Problem Now Is to -Get the Men. Washington, Feb. 22.--The first American-built battleplanes are en route to France, nearly five months ahead of the original schedule. In making this announcement on Wednesday Secretary Baker said the first shipment, although In Itself not large, "marks the final overcoming of many difficulties met In building up this new and intricate Industry." "These planes," Mr. Baker said, "are equipped with the first Liberty motors from machine production. One of them in a recent test surpassed all records for speed and climbing for planes of that type. "Engine production, which began a month ago, is now on a quantity basis and the peak of production will be reached In a few weeks. "Only the twelve-cylinder type Is be­ ing made, as developments abroad have made It wise to concentrate on the high-powered engine Instead of the eight-cylinder." Optimistic as these statements ap­ pear, the secretary said they should not be exaggerated and should be con- siderd In the light of these facts: That after three years of warfare the total number of planes able to take the air at any one time on either side of the western front has not been more than 2,500. That 46 men are required on the ground for every plane In the air, mak­ ing a total of 115,000 men needed for the present maximum of 2.500 planes. That for every plane In the air there must be two replacement planes on the ground and one training plane for every pilot who eventually reaches the front, with a spare engine for each plane.

Washington, Feb. 25.--The adminis­ tration railroad bill passed the senate on Friday by a viva voce vote. Before passing the mecsure the sen­ ate adopted a resolution of Senator' Cummins of Iowa directing the govern­ ment to take over ail short line roads representing an investment of $1,000,- 000 or more. This was practically the only change of Importance effected. On all other points ^thp adminlstratiou forces held firm. * The important provisions of the bill as passed in the senate are: 1. The president Is to fix the rate of compensation for the railroad owners for the use of their property oil the basis of their average earnings for the year? 1915, 1916 and 1917. It Is estimated this will Involve the payment by the government to the owners of $950,000,000 each year. An amendment by the committee to reimburse the roads for Improvements made during the six months ended De­ cember 31, 191?, was rejected by the senate. This would have made neces­ sary the payment of about ,$15,000,000 additional. 2. Rates for freight and passenger traffic are to be Initiated by the presi­ dent whenever advisable, but final jur­ isdiction in all rate changes rests with the Interstate commerce commission. The original bill proposed by Direc­ tor General McAdoo would- have given the president supreme authority in the matter of fixing rates. 3. The control and operation of the railroads by the government Is to cease at the end of 18 months after the end of the war. As originally presented to congress the bill left the period to con­ trol open. The house bill fixed the time limit at two years after the end of the war. More than a dozen amendments were disposed of during the day. Hundreds of short speeches wer.e made under the five-minute rule. The bill now goes to the house, where general debate on a similar measure has practically closed, and where almost a hundred amendments are pending. Next to the inclusion of the short line railroads, the most interesting step of the day was the rejection of amend­ ments by Senator Cummins to limit the government return to the roads to not more than 5 per cent upon their capi­ tal stock. Senator Cummins'. amendment af­ fecting the short lines was adopted by 58 to 11. One section of the bill allows the president to buy and sell railroad se­ curities and turn the proceeds over to the revolving fund. Objections were made to this by Senator Kirby of Ar­ kansas, who said it "was dabbling in stocks." M'ADOO WILL MOVE FOOD Asks Hoover to Name Location of Sup­ plies and He Will See They Are Hauled. Washington, Feb. 25.--Differences between William G. McAdoo, director of transportation, and Herbert Hoover, food administrator, over the reason for the delay of food §,hipraents to the coast, reached a new climax on Fri­ day. Mr. McAdoo, in a letter to the food administrator, called on him to show where the food vas. The letter reads: "Dear Mr. Hoover: "You are, as I understand It. the sole purchaser in this country, of food sup­ plies for the allied governments. Yon rtust, therefore, know the location of the food supplies which you from time to time purchase and the ports In this country to which you desire such sup­ plies shipped. If yon will notify me from time to time of the location of the specific supplies and the port or ports In the United States to which you wish to have the supplies trans­ ported, I will guarantee the necessary transportation, subject alone to inter­ ruptions from blizzards and floods. "I wish to reassure the country by saying that so far as transportation Is concerned, there Is no danger of suf­ fering from a serious food shortage in the eastern part of the country.

FOOD CRISIS IS NEAR HOOVER SAYS NEXT TWO MONTHS MOST CRITICAL. Country Far Behind in Its Program of Sending Supplies to the Allies. Washington, Feb. 23.--The next two months will be tlie most critical period with regard' to food that the United States li*.s faced slhce she entered the ""ar. This was the statement on Thursday of Herbert Hoover, United States food administrator. The statement reads: "In response to many Inquiries I beg to say it is true that since the first of December we have fallen far behind our agreed food program with the al­ lies. By the end of February we will be short 45,000,000 bushels In cereal products which v/e undertook as our share of their supplies. We also will be short of the amount of meat prod­ ucts that we were to deliver. "This deficiency Is due solely to the railway congestion since that date. "The next sixty days will be the most critical period In our food his­ tory. The simple fact Is that the pro­ gram goes far deeper than supplies to the allies. "During the last three months we have fallen far behind In movement of foodstuffs from the farms to the con­ sumers. "We had about 130,000 carloads of potatoes November 1 that should have been moved from the producing cen­ ters, and up to the first of February we had moved about 28.000 carloads. We should have moved over 50.000 In this period. The result Is that pota­ toes are spoiling in the producers' hands. 'There Is a great deal of live stock which has been ready for the market for some time, but is still held in the farmers' hands through inability to ob­ tain transportation." U. S. BONE-DRY ACT V0I0?

Represent­ ative McLenmore of Texas introduced a resolution on Wednesday calling for an Investigation of the vote of the house by the Judiciary committee. The gist of McLenmore's objection is the amendment passed by a bare two-thirds vote of those present and a two-thirds vote of both houses Is re­ quired under the Constitution. He contends a full vote of all members was necessary. The house membership Is 435. The vote of 282 to 128 fell eight short of the total. Two-thirds of all the sen­ ate members voted for the amend­ ment. # In Impeachment proceedings, Mc­ Lenmore contends, the Constitution provides for a vote of two-thirds of all present.
