Mrs. G. W. Lyon, 471 Third avenue, is eagerly awaiting tidings from relatives who were in the Titanic disaster.  She is a sister of Mrs. E. G. Crosby of Milwaukee, who with her husband and daughter Harriet, was on the ill-fated boat.  Mr. Crosby is at the head of the Crosby Transportation Company of Milwaukee and his name does not appear among the list of those who were saved.  The wireless reports from the steamer Carpathia, which is hurrying to port with the survivors, contain the names of Mrs. Crosby and her daughter.
