THE TITANIC DISASTER
SENATOR SMITH'S SPEECH. FLAMBOYANT JOURNALISM. MOVING MONUMENTS. By Cable—Press Association—Copyright. London, May 29. Several London newspapers protest against Senator Smith's speech in connection with the Titanic enquiry as being flamboyant journalism and rhetorical flapdoodle. They admit that the report itself is dignified and well balanced. The attack on the Board of Trade requires attention from the House of Commons. New York, May 29. Tho Globe heads its comments on Senator Smith's speech, "Oh, what an ass!" and declares that the report is farcical as a summary of the evidence, and calls attention to Senator Smith's recommendation that buoys should be carried by every ship to mark the place of burials. Newspapers ask how buoys could be anchored in mid-ocean.
