TWO VESTRIS STORIES ARE CONTRADICTORY ICUXTIKVICD FROM I‘AUK ONE> Vestris crew — Isaac James Scott, saloon waiter; Thomas Connor, headwaiter; and Gibert Ford, chief fire-man--said the ship leaked and the two waiters insisted that water came in through the half-doors every time sea ran high. The inspectors said the ports in the passengers’ quarters were not defective and that they were high above the water line. Connor testified that I since six months ago he had filed ' written reports that 40 ports in the dining salon were defective but that no repairs had been made. The inspectors said the only thing they found wrong in the hold of the Vestris were some hand pumps that worked a little hard. Ford declared the ash ejector valve on the ship had leaked for two years and that no attempt had been made to repair it. The inspectors said tlie equipment for lowering lifeboats was in firstclass condition. The waiters testified that one life-boat stuck five feet above the water and could not be lowered. The inspectors declared the fourteen lifeboats were in perfect condition and were equipped with lamps, food, water and flares. The fireman said lifeboat No. 7, which he was in, leaked so badly that the occupants had to bail all night and that the boat contained no flares. Perhaps the greatest sensation of the inquiry was the repudiation by Capt. Frederick Sorenson, a passenger, of interviews quoting him as accusing Capt. William J. Carey and the members of the crew of incompetency and negligence. RIVERS RECEDE IN MISSOURI Fair Weather Forecast For At Least 24 Hours In Midwest Area Kansas City, Nov. 21.— U.P.)—Marauding rivers of the southwest were receding rapidly today and forecasts of continued fair weather and rising temperatures indicated relief front disastrous floods of last week whose death toll still stands at fourteen.

Butler, Mo., isloated for almost five days, had resorted railroad service today and tlie first mail since Friday was brought to that town. Crippled train service was being restored rapidly in Kansas and Missouri and train officials declared the crisis of (lie worst tie-up in history in this section had been passed. Highways that had stood under water for several days wore being opened. In the valley of the Blue river, near Kansas City, where 1,000 were driven from their homes, piecautions were taken against disease. Vaccinating and other methods of inimuniztaion against disease were urged.

REPORTTELLS OFTOKIO CLASH Says 31 Were Killed In, Coronation Ceremony At Tokio Recently Loudon, Nov. 21.— UJPJ -The Manchester guardian s Shanghai correspondent sui dtoday that the Chinese official K‘ umin new agency at Tokio reported that 29 labor demonstrators and two soldiers were killed and 60 demonstrators were wounded in Tokio in clashes with the police and Japanest troops on ..ov. 11 and 12 during the enthronement ceremonies. The report said 200 demonstrators were arrested. The Koumin agency said censorship had prevented foreign corerspondents from cabling reports of the incident and that likewise the Japanese press had been prevented from mentioning the clashes. The Koumin agency further alleges, the guardian correspondent said, that serious labor demonstrations occurred in Osaka and Kyoto. The agency said that on Nov. 11, eight were killed, 60 wounded and about 200 arrested. And that the next day two soldiers and 21 laborers were killed. The Koumin gave as its source of information Chinese officials in Tokio and said that the advices were reliable, the guardian dispatch said. The dispatch also said the Japanese government scribed the trouble to communists but that actually the demonstrators belonged to the independent labor and political opposition parties. These two lorces clashed, the dispatch added, and there were also fights between soldiers and *he police. HOOV ER TO TRY FISHING SKILL (CONTINUED FROM FADE USB) Pacific fleet.
