Honor to the dead who went down in the ill-fated Titanic is being is being paid in this city today. The flags on the police station and on all the public schools were half-staffed by order of Councilman-at-Large John Farrell. Rahway has felt the force of the horror in the probable loss of Arthur Keefe, who is supposed to have gone down when the mighty ship foundered, and the flags on the public buildings, at half-staff, mark the city’s part in the grief which has overspread the entire world.

Little more detail of the greatest maritime disaster the world has ever known has been received today, and only the arrival of the survivors on board the Carpathia, due in port of New York at 11 o’clock tonight, can give the anxiously waiting world the full recital of the horror.

There is still a bare possibility that Arthur Keefe of this city may have escaped from the Titanic. The latest news from New York states that there are still about 300 names to be sent out of those who are known to be saved. Who these are is not yet known, but the conjecture is that, as the majority of the names already sent out are of first and second cabin passengers, the remainder will probably be of steerage passengers. The hope, however, is of the most fragile nature.
