DURING QUARTER
Interesting Figures Put Out by the

on Accidents
A decrease In the number of persons
killed and injured on the railroads of
Pennsylvania during the first quarter
of 1914 as compared with the llrst
three months of last year is noted by
CASTORIA
For Infants and Children
In Use For Over 30 Years
the accident division of the Public
Service Commission and the figures of
casualties on the trolley lines show
an even greater decrease.

2,480 injured on the railroads In that
period against 290 killed and 2,482
injured in the same period of 1913,
while 29 were killed on the trolley

ANDERSON SAYS HE
IS NOT RESPONSIBLE
[Continued from First Page.]
was a throng of officials, newspaper
men, photographers and moving pic
ture men, while outside a sorrowing
crowd awaited admittance to search
for their dead. A number of survivors
of the disaster were in the crowd,
hoping to find the bodies of loved ones
they had lost when the steamer went
down.
Among the disappointed ones in this
respect when the people "were finally
admitted to view the bodies wus H.
Luren, a Norwegian. He and his wife
were bound for Norway to visit their
old home after a fifteen years' stay
In the United States. His wife was
torn from his grasp when tho Empress
of Ireland went down and though he
searched for her for a lung time as he
swam near the wreck he could not lind
her. He was saved, but this is a mat
ter of regret to him now that his wife
is dead.
"If I only had died instead of her,"
ho said. "We slid down the deck Into
the water in each other's arms and
then the force of the explosion as the
ship went under parted us. For a
moment I was stunned and did not
know what happened, but very soon I
knew that 1 was alone."
A section in the shed that caused
deep sorrow to those who visited it
was that in which twenty-five little
white caskets lay. Persons after per
son turned away crying from this sad
collection.
Killed in Their llortlis
Several of the bodies of the recov
ered dead were badly gashed, prob
ably killed in their berths by the force
ot the Storstad's bow as it crashed
into the Empress of Ireland's side,
while nearly all were bruised and bat
tered from contact with debris.
Additional bodies are being recov
ered slowly at the scene of the dis
aster, reports from Riniouski and Ma
tania say. A force of men is patrolling
both sides of the St. Lawrence river for
miles, but thus far with little success.
.Many boats are hovering on the river
with the same purpose in view.
i) 01( Persons Rend
The latest lists furnished by the
Canadian Pacific Railway Indicate that
a total of 969 persons perished. The
saved number 418. The tabulation
follows:
First cabin, passengers carried 87,
passengers saved 32. passengers lost
55; second and third class (of whom
153 were second class), passengers
carried 868, passengers saved 180, pas
sengers lost 588; crew, carried 432,
saved 206, lost 226.
Prompt investigation is promised on
all sides and a royal commission has
been named to make a searching in
quiry. This commission is composed
of one member of the British Hoard
of Trade, named by the British gov
ernment, and two judges of the Ca
nadian Admiralty Court, appointed by
the Canadian government.
Meanwhile a preliminary investi
gation is in progress, conducted by
Captain Lindsay, wreck commissioner
of the Canadian government. Sur
viving passengers and all of the offi
cers and members of the crew in
volved will be examined.
Denies Responsibility
Roth Captain Kendall, of the lost
steamer and Captain Andersen, of
the Storstad, are now In Montreal and
they will be among the first to be
heard. A statement was issued last
night in behalf of Captain Andersen,
the first he has made since the col
lision. in which he denies that he was
responsible for the disaster. Captain
Andersen claims he had the right of
way; that when he lost sight of the
Empress of Ireland in tho fog the
latter's course had ben set so that the
vessels would pass each other safely.
The Storstad's course remained un
altered. the statement alleges, but
when the Empress was next seen she
was close at hand and making con
siderable headway.
It is declared the Storstad's engines
were reversed and that her momen
tum was nearly checked when the
vessels came together.
As for the charge that the Storstad
backed out of the hole she had torn
in the Empress, the statement,declares!
that it is not true. Her engines were
ordered ahead to hold her against the
liner's side, it is stated, but the head
way the Empress was under twisted
the collier's bow out of the gash.
Captain Andersen claims that he re
mained near the scene of the collision
and he points to the fact that his ship
saved 350 persons as proof of this as
sertion.
Sir Thomas Shaughnessy, head of
the Canadian Pacific Railway Com
pany. issued a statement to-day thank
ing the people at Riniouski and its
vicinity for the care and attention they
gave to the living and dead that came
to them from the company's ill-fated
steamer Empress of Ireland.
Launches Begin Search
For Steamship Victims
By Associated Press
Riniouski, June 1. Several tugs
and launches chartered by the Ca
nadian Pacific Railway Company to
day began a search of the St. Law
rence river in an effort to recover
more of the Empress of Ireland's dead.
One or more launches remained
directly over the spot where the shat
tered hull lies three miles off shore
waiting for the bodies of some of the
victims to come to the surface of the
water.

important meeting at

« JKJ! Hi the State Christian
Endeavor convention
to Harrisburg in 1918.
Bill' "188 Two years ago the
State biennial conven
j fey A/lJ ti on was held at
■ ■ a t • Wllkes-Barre, in the
northeastern part of the State, and on
July 7-9 it will be held at Uniontown,
in the western section of the State.
In all probability Harrishurg, which is
centrally located, can capture the con
vention for two years hence without
any contest.
In 1898 this city and vicinity enter
tained one of the largest State conven
tions ever held in Chestnut Street
Hall, of which the Rev. George H.
Stewart. D. D., president of Auburn
Theological Seminary, at Auburn,
N. Y„ at that time pastor of Market
Square Presbyterian Church, was
chairman of the convention commit
tee. Harrisburg now has about sixty
senior Christian Endeavor societies,
with a membership of several thou
sand Endeavorers, and Dauphin county
has 155 societies, including tho junior,
intermediate and senior societies, with
a membership of 7,4 86. Thus Harris
burg, with the assistance of the nearly
societies in the county, can easily en
tertain the big convention.
Representatives from the various so
cieties of the city will attend the meet
ing to-morrow evening to discuss the
preliminary work and invitation of
the convention.

MOTORCYCLE NOTES
A striking example of the consistent
performance of the modern motorcycle
I was given in the recent run of the
Yonkers, X. Y., Motorcycle Club, when
of the twenty entrants, sixteen riders
finished the 148 miles with perfect
scores.
A new motorcycle club has been
formed at Seranton, Pa„ with 75 char

Blood Tonic Has
Important Meaning
Puts the Right Sort of Vim
Where Most Needed.
To tone the blood means to enable It to
throw off accumulated Impurities, to In
crease the red corpuscles and to put tho
blood-making organs into such active condi
tion as to produce that conscious sensation
of what we feel as health.
This Is the logical effect of using tho
famous hlood purifier, S. S. S.
Half the people you meet complain of
weary muscles, stagnant brain, Jangled
nerves, and a wonderful desire to lay down
and Just quit. Most of these people havo
been using nervines that spasmodically flare
up the nerves only to die down again, as
die they must. Avoid nerve stimulant#.
Bear In mind that this worn-out feeling Is
due to poor blood, to bacteria in the water
you drink; to the multiplying of destruc
tive germs In the blood faster than they
can be overcome by the white corpuscles;
and to what is known as auto-toxemia, that
condition where the venous or Impure blood
accumulates faster than It can be replaced
I by the red arterial blood.
S. S. 8. has long Been famous as a blood
| purifier, and its action bv elimination of
the Irritating poisons that Infest the hlood,
is one of the very important things to know.
You can get S. S. S. at any drug store,
I but take no other so-called blood purifier.
s. S. S. Is purely a vegetable product,
and you will make a great mistake to have
some enthusiast palm off a mercury, arsenic
or iodide of potash preparation that may
do you irreparable harm.
S. S. S. is prepared bv The Swift Specific
Co., 53.1 Swift Bldg.. Atlanta. Oa.. and If
you have any deep seated or obstinate blood
trouble, write to their Medical Dept. for
free advice. It will be worth your while
to do en.

did not advance June Ist.
You have one more month to buy your
coal at the 50c reduction.
July 1 the price of all Anthracite Coal ex
cept Pea and Buckwheat, will advance in
price.
Besides the big difference in price, the quality of
coal shipped in the summer time'is very much bet
er quality.
The reason for this is that the miners are
not so busy aiM therefore they have more
time to prepare the coal properly.
