Capt Thomas Anderson of the Stor-
stad was asleep when the vessel
-eached this port and had left orders
not to be disturbed.
Stories of the loss of the Empress of
Ireland brought to Quebec Friday
night by the survivors gave vivid de-
tails of the most terrible tragedy in
f- annals of the St Lawrence. Some
compared the disaster to that which
n"fell the Titanic. l"tt pointed out that
in the case of the Titanic there was
time to prepare for death while wHh
those who perished on the Empress

Only Five Boats Launched.
From the accounts of the saved it
seems that soon after the ship was
rammed she careened until her deck
stood at right angles to the water. She
slid slowly into the water asd it was
onlv possible to launch five boats in
the brief interval -before she sank.

mouski Terrified Struggle In Darkness.
Probably tbe chief cause of confusion
on the steamer after the impact was
the fact that the water rushing into
the engine room and flooding the dyna-
mos threw the ship Into complete
darkness. The struggles of the terri-
fied passengers to escape can be imag-
ined. There are still -several hundred
bodies to be recovered from the waters
of the St. Lawrence.
TeHs How Irvine Died.
F. K. Abbott of Toronto told of how
Lauroo Irrmg died trying to save
his Wife.
"I met him first In tbe passageway."
Abbott said "and he said calmly-. Is

like it. 'Dearie.' Irving then said to bis

'Keep eool" he warned her but she
persisted In holding her arms around
him. He forced the life belt over her
and pushed her out of the door He
then practically carried her up stairs.
I asked if I could help and Irving sakl
Xook after yourself first old man but
God bless you all the same.' "
Abbott said he left the two man and
wife struggling Abbott got on deck
and dived overboard. He caught hold
of a piece of timber and then looked
around. Irving by this time was on
the deck. He was kissing his wife. As
the ship went down they were clasped
in each other's arms.

whether the Carranxa faction
will have personal representation
