New York, Oct. 16.?Frincis Inch, the boyish-looking Briton who commanded the burned steamer Volturno, tonight came to port bringing with !him 87 survivors, passengers and crew of his ill-fated vessel. His story of the disaster, in which 136 lives were lost, had preceded him by wireless, but in a cabin of the st amer Kroonland, which brought him here, Cap:. | Inch told his tal? in simply phrased j and modestly spoken detail that more vividly described the panorama of the Volturno's loss and the rescue of more . than 500 of those she had on board. There was no cowardice on [he Yolturno, either among officer?, or crtw, Inch said. There was no rush of seamen which made it necessary for him to warn them back with his revolver. Kis revolver was in a drawer in his | cabin and it burned with the ship. And no one on board drew a revolver. These statements he intended should refu-te the stories told by steerage passengers who arrived yesterday on the Grosser Kurfuerst. Praise For AIL The Volturno's master, besides defending his own officers and men, said he had no criticism to make of the tactics of any of the boats that stood by. "The Carmania did its best, the same as the others," he said. "There 1 is r.othins: bin praise for everv one. i J The B. JL CAPITAL PR .? > r ' *4i r.

The Carmania did drop a boat, Inch declared, but it could not gee near for the Volturno drifted faster than t'he crew could row. Later the Carmania sent forth six rafes, but they drifted across the Volturno's bow and disappeared. More than that, the Carmania could not do, said Inch. Vicrht-on r-nhin snri ttvn stppraffft passengers entered the first lifeboat that ventured to leave the Volturno. Only enough of the crew stepped into to man it, said Inch; they did not rush to it and it was not overcrowded. It entangl-.d itself in its after tackle and capsized. All But Two Drowned. All in it were drowned, except Chief Officer Miller and a steward, who climbed into it after it had righted itself and were rescued. Into the n-:xt boat went 30 pas! sengers and 10 sailors. This boat ! got away but has not been heard from. The third boat took off 40, 10 of them sailors. As she settled i _ x _ ?. -in a _ i J into ine water iu more jumped auoaia from the Volturno's deck.
