Judging Iroin the nature of the tew messages re ceived fnSm survivors aboard the ( arpatlua the intereiiee is thai most of them are, unaware of the awful tragedy that took place aboard the Titanic when she was abandoned. 1 bus hianv wives are ignorant thai their husbands perished and are hoping thev were picked up bv some pasxinK liner which subsequent ly rendered service similar to that ol the Cai pathlu. In New ork all preparations have been made to receive the survivor? when thev land.

Number Tlmt IVrished 1,312. New York, April 18. --The Cnr puthla with S(iS shipwrecked sur vivors of the sunken Titanic is due at the dock ut eleven o clock to- iii) tilt -;-. "'. SJ Vi fit .. MA-loR ARCHIBALD BUTT, Military ami uncial aide to 1'rcsldent Tuft, ho was aboard t he giant ocean Hue Titanic, when Unit great vckHel collided with mi Irelterg on the New Fouiidlnnd const. At the present writing it ran he learned Unit only 670 pHMnengcrs on board the Titanic were tilived iinil the re mainder of the 2,200. passengers, which iiH-Uules crew of 8fl0, went down with tho vessel, - night. The rescue ship was off Nan tucket lightship, 196 miles away at r ; 5 o'clock this morning. A wireless report that only 70" sur vivors are aboard the Carpathia still persists but no word, so far as can be learned, has come from the Car pathia with the last twenty-four hours, giving the exact number of nhipwrcekod persons ahoard. From figures available at the White Star Line offices it Is prjibable the num ber of those who perished total:! 1,1! 12 souls. The Carpathia is now In good working wireless distance.. 'Numbers of private messages from survivors and dispatches to the line Were con Plaiitly being received during the morning but no word came to repeal ed requests for details of the acci dent. The cruisers .-Chester', and Salem and the government wireless stations ashore stopped sending so l hat the Carpathia might have an uninterrupted field for sending news. The Carpathia sent ashore th names of 120 third class pas sengers and requested the White Star Line to send (lie ship's offi cer mid fourteen sailors, on two tugs, to take charge of the ; thirteen Titanic lifeboats, at quarantine. .This would indicate that only thirteen lifeboats were found available for rescue work instead of twenty life boats as had been approximated, Hope Abandoned. All hope has been abandoned that John Jacob Astor, Isudore Siraus, IlenJ. Guggenheim, Geo. D, Wldener, .Major Archibald Hutt, Tal't's mili tary aide; Henry R. Harris, theatri cal manager, and ('has. M. lla.Vii, president of Grand Trunk ltai!roi:d were saved. The Carpathia's wire less operator sent word this inorniiiF that Astor was not on the Carpathia and he did not know whether Henj. Guggenheim or Archibald Hurt were aboard or not. The scout cruiser Salem requested information regard ing' Major Mutt, The Carpathia gave no answer. The Salem sent ashore the following message: "I can read the Carpathia but he won't take any business from me." The Salem sent the following wireless to the navy department,- Washington: "Your telegrams relative to -Major Hutt and others was relayed to the Chester promptly and acknowledged and 1 later gent a second inquiry, just to learn at 10 p. m., that the original message w as not received by the Chester. Am now trying for the Carpathia direct, to inquire. Con ditions are very unfavorable with many stations interferring with each other. The Salem proceeds to Brad ford Thursdayt for coal, thence to Boston. " George P. "Wldener, of .Philadel phia, capitalist, is not aboard the Carpathia, That Information was received by the White Star Line this morning. No mention was made of his son Harry. Many wireless mes sages, -sent by survivors show they hold hopes that those from whom they were separated were safe aboard other steamships. "I am praying my husband was picked up by another steamer," was tho wire less message sent by a survivor to her family. , - .Special Aii-angenienis for finndiiw. New York. April 18. Special ar rangements have been made to care for the survivors when the Carpathia docks. Custom regulations will be suspended. Police reserves will be stationed about the Ctinard Pier. Only friends or relatives of Bur vlvors, with proper credentials, will be permitted on the pier. A score or more weathy society womon have organized a relief committee to aid he steerage survivors. Carputhiu Doesn't Answer Culls. i Washington, April 18. The navy department this morning gave out a dispatch sent by United States Steamship Salem at eight o'clock. corroborating numerous dispatches declarlngthe Carpathia has persis tently declined to answer any mes sages or inquiry, aitnotign sue some times acknowledging calls. The message follows; "United States Steamship Salem, 8 a, m. Can get no information from Carpathia of any kind.

Mr. James Crawford Little, a prominet young Raleigh lawyer, to day announced his candidacy for the state senate. This means probably that there will be no factional fight, in this county this summer. Mr. Little is not running as the candidate of any faction, Imi enters the race on his merits Numerous people, Interest ed in having harmony in Wake county, have asked Mr. Little 10 enter the race and these people include leaders of both factions. A Good Platform. In announcing his candidacy for the democratic nomination for state senator from Wake county, Mr. Lit tle says that he is not running as the candidate of any political fac tion; that lie has assurances from leading men of the county who have been identified with both factions that lie w ill have their support, and that he will appreciate any support given mm. it nominated ana eiecT:-' I ed. he will give- all matters that ! arise careful consideration and will give his lust efforts to the service of Wake county and the state of North Carolina.
