NOT THE TITANIC.
Captain Remnant, of the British steamer Lnciline, which arrived at New York at the end of July, reported that he discovered a wreck standing on end a few feet above tbe water off the Grand Banks, Newfoundland.
As it was suggested that it might be the Titanic, the United States Hydrographic Officer issued a statement that the Titanic's hull was probably broken up long ago, and that in the remote possibility that it is still intact the spot indicated lsy Capain Remnant is _00 sssiies south-east of the spot where the Titanic sank.
As the liner was wrecked in the Gull Stream, she would be carried north-east-not south-east. The only other water movesner.ts near there are polar currents, atid bud tbe Titanic been thrown among thorn -he would hare been carried south-west.
