the issue of VANDALISM

One Printed Article, mentions , "Survivors told accounts of vandalism ".


and that was it.........No Details..........no explanation.....

"There were reports that first tonight: ....... that during the height of the confusion, on the steamer, that terrible night: .....that thieves had broken into the purser's office, and that several survivors had reported [eyewitness accounts] of other activities by vandals.

again...no detail....

"No arrests were made, however;... and no one was found, who admitted stealing, or even loss by theft ".

again...this was circulated, with no follow up....
