LAST WORDS FROM SHIP.

New York, April 15-.—The accident of the Titanic occurred at 10:25 o'clock last night. Two hours later the ship’s wireless apparatus, which had been working so badly as to permit of only intermittent and fragmentary messages, failed completely.

The last words sent by the operator told that the vessel was apparently doomed, “sinking by the head,” and that the’ women passengers were being rushed into the lifeboats.
