Inventor lllsrconi Says its Did Not Order Silence, and There Ap
pears to be Fiction Between Wireless. Operators

WASHINGTON, April 26.—To learn
why a nearby steamer did not offer
aid to the sinking Titanic and to ilx
the exact hour at which the last liner
was warned that she was in the vicin-
ity of dangerous ice, Senator William
Alden Smith, chairman or the senate
committee investigating the disaster
summoned three imponaut witnesses.

They are J. H. Moore, captain of
the . steamer Mount Temple, which
passed within a short distance «the
Titanic when she was in extremity
and the captain and wireless opera-

tor tit-the liner Californian. which
sent the warning. ‘ .
Summons were issued for the

muster and operator oi ”the Califor-
nian while announcement that Capt.
Moore would appear was vomited 4n
a telegram from Acting Premier Foo-
); ”not Census Capt Moore's story

‘Wbly will he board- “for ”I

Guglielmo Marconi chairman of the

Marconi company, limited today told
the senate committee investigating
the Titanic disaster that he authorise
ed the wireless operators of the Car-
pat-his and'l‘ltanic to sell their stories
or the great scsoeiutroplte tor pub-
Alicatloti.

Mr. Marconi explained tint he had

not atemptedvln any way to suppress
general information or the wreck.

operhtore telling. them to “keep your
mouths shut" and "hold our tor tour
figures.” These messages one of them
signed "Marconi" were picked up by
the United States battleship Florida
the‘nishtthc Carpathla was coming-
in and forwarded to the secretary of
'the navy. Mr. Marconi declared he
never authorized these messages but
did, give consent that operators could
receive money.

Senator Smith asked Mr. Marconi.

“i desire to ask whether an omcer.
director, employe or the International
Mercantile Marine alter the collision
asked yen to enjoin silence on Titanic
operator Bride or Carpathls operator
Cottstn seen the time or the manner
in which thoiaccident occupied?"

"No request was made and no order
was issued to stay any mousse. ‘ No

"i asked the operator about‘lt, and
he told me that the Chester asked tor
a list of the survivors and he told the
Chester that it had been sent. and
then 5 save them some additional
names. I also asked him it he had
received any manage from the precl-
dent ci the United States. He said no
such message over was received, and
it it had been he certainly would have
answered it."

Senator Smith referred to the Jack
Binns case on board the steamer Re-
public. "1 want you to tell the com-
mittee ii the very permission yoa gave
to Blnus and the privilege you save to
Cotton: in the Titanic disaster did not
explain your failure to set the inter
mation oi the discolor and the world

The witness declared that its suit
that the “unattended or opened“
Me or Cottsm were or such interest
that they had the risbt to sell their
stories.’ He insisted that it always
was his understanding that the news
or the disaster woo not to be inp-
prossed. He said he understood Bride

paper

Mr Marconi said that the operators
"were. never Instructed not to live
out news.

'1 have no knowledge whstovsr."
he added. “about these messages that:
were intercepted by 'ths navy depart-
men ‘

“Have you tallied to Sammie about
it since?"

“i saw him for a low minutes a lit-
tle while ago. and I told him 'you
know that 'I did not authorise those
messages? What i meant when -l
told the operator .to take somethin!
for a story was that newspapers and
reporters would be so. interested in
what he had to say without holdllis
back any general information they
would be willing to pay him for his
personal story. "
