Captain McVey, of the Larchniont, and
the few surviving members of his
crew. There is much interest in this
step, for beside placing the responsibi-
lity for the disaster, If such can be
done. an investigation will probably be
made into the charges. of cowardice

some of his men. The crew of the

The arrest was made upon a war‘

said that he did not think-there was
any disposition on the part of Mr.

had cried merely in not knowing that
the law demanded that he keep the
age certificate of the child of file. As
soon as Mr. Clark became aware .of the
law he complied with it and as a re-
