"LORD MERSEY A FOOL."
STORSTAD'S CAPTAIN INDIGNANT
MUCH LITIGATION PROMISED.
By Cable. —Press Association. —Copyright, (Received July 14, 11.40 a.m.) OTTAWA, July 13. Captain Anderson of the Storstad has expressed the opinion that Lord Mersey is a fool for holding him responsible for the collision with the Empress of Ireland, and says that any reputation Lord Mersey had, he is sure to lose through such a decision. Lord Mersey, he holds, really favoured the CanadianPacific Company throughout the enquiry. 1 Captain Anderson has also announced his intention of starting a suit against the Canadian-Pacific Company on behalf of the Storstad's owners. He will also begin a suit in the British Admiralty courts. Captain Anderson has promised that there will be much litigation before things are settled between him and the • Canadian-Pacific Company. As a result of the Commission's judgment, Captain Kendall will remain in the employ- of the Canadian-Pacific Company.
