The captin of Titanic was captin Edward J Smith, he had previously crashed the titanic's sister ship the olympic and was supposed to be retiering after his crossing to new york sadly he when Titanic sank he went down with the ship.
Captain Edward John Smith was mildly scapegoated at the British Inquiry after the sinking of Titanic but it was only a matter of convenience to shift some blame to "the dead guy".
In truth, the crew were simply following the protocols of the day.
It was White Star Line's chairman Bruce Ismay who received most of the blame. After the disaster he pretty much faded into obscurity.
There is no evidence that anyone shot themselves or anyone else on the Titanic.
It was traveling at it's normal crusing speed when it hit. The problem was that the captain didn't follow orders and change course when White Star issued an iceberg warning earlier that day.
