[" Sherbrooke Daily Record Established 1897 SHERBROOKE, QUE., SATURDAY JUNE 27, 1914 ONE CENT RESPONSIBLE FOR COLLISION G.P.R.Counsel Puts Blame on Third Officer of the Sterstad claimed that the emprebs OF IRELAND HAD GIVEN THE PROPER SIGNALS BEFORE THE ACCIDENT.Quebec, June 2T.\u2014That Third Officer Saxe, of the Storstad, was the culprit responsible for the collision between the Empress of Ireland and the Storstad was the argument of Mr.Aspinall at the enquiry yesterday.Mr.Aspinall, in a speech of three and a half hours, analyzed the evidence, and offered the conclusion that it was proven there had been steering way on the Storstad at the time of the collision and before, and that its real cause was the order to port the Storstad\u2019s helm in the fog, with the subsequent action of Saxe in putting ;the helm hard aport without orders to do so.Mr.Aspinall argued that all the facts showed that the Empress was thoroughly equipped in every way for any emergency according to the Board of Trade regulations and was properly officered and manned, while every demand as to drills and practice in using the watertight bulkheads had been thoroughly met.The main points he dealt with were as to what «happened on the two vessels before the collision.As to this, he quoted from the evidence of crew and passengers to the effect that the Empress had given the proper signals and had followed the proper course in the fog, having in view that there was what Lord Mersey described as \u201cthe risk of a risk\u201d of a collision.(Everything, he argued, indicated that Captain Kendall had not been playing with his whistles, but had navigated his ship properly, as his whistles indicated.This, he said, was also shown by the evidence of passengers, who after having suffered such terrible hardships and come forward and testified that the ship had been properly navigated so far as they knew, while they all agreed that the conduct of the crew was admirable.With regard to the Storstad, Mr.Aspinall said he did not place much reliance upon the evidence of her officers.He especially emphasized the conflict between the evidence, quoting the steersman who said she tad way on when her helm was ported and the captain and other officers who had declared that she had been lying dead in the water at the time of the collision.Another strong point made by Mr.Aspinall was to the effect that the engine room log of the Storstad showed that there was no possibility of her having reached a dead stop at the time of tne collision.He submitted with great gravity to the court that it was evident that certain evidence given from the Storstad could not be accepted as correct ; that it was clear the Storstad had been moving fast at the time of the collision ; that the logs had been arranged in what must be regarded as a suspicious manner, and that other suspicious circumstances clouded her evidence.On the other hand he argued that the Empress\u2019 evidence had been clearly put and so backed by corroboration and probability that the court should come to the conclusion that the collision had been caused by the fact that in the fog the Storstad had, while travelling at considerable speed, ported her helm, and thus come into collision with the Empress, which was then lying dead in the water, as she had signalled sbe was doing.This morning Mr.Haight began the argument for the Storstad.LAST INUTE TELEGRAPH DISPATCHES GREAT HORSE RACE.New York, June 27.\u2014 (Special) \u2014 Details of what promises to be the greatest match race between horses this season became known to-day.The race will take place during the Saratoga meeting, and will be between Th« Masquerader and Luke, two-year-olds, at five and a half furlongs, for 122,000 a side.SALEM\u2019S LOSS MEXICAN SENATE IS $12,000,000 CONVENES MONDAY Two Square Miles of Houses and Factories Were Destroyed by Flames SIX PERSONS ARE KNOWN TO BE DEAD, WHILE SCORES OF OTHERS WERE INJURED BY FALLING BUILDINGS.Salem, Mass., June 27\u2014 Adenuate care for the fifteen thousand homeless was the problem faced yesterday Will Hear Excutive Report and Discuss the Peace Protocol IT IS PROPOSED TO FLOAT A LOAN, AND BILL FOR THIS PURPOSE GOES TO CONGRESS.Mexico City, June 27.\u2014 (Special) It has been decided to postpone until Monday the convening of the Senate to hear the executives report upon | Company, reported overdue yester-as a result of the conflagration which an(j (jiSCUgS the protocol signed at !
