TELLS PLAIN TALE
OF OCEAN HORROR
(apt. Inch Describe* Los? of Vol
?yr???. Battle with Flames.
New York, Oct. 14.?Capt. Francis
inch, whose steamer, tho Volturno,
was burned at sea with the loss of 136
lives, tonight told his story of the dis
aster. It is a plain seaman's tale, but ,
in it, line by line, the horrors of the
disaster and the terrible ordeal
through which passengers and crew
passed are brought out with marked
directness and simplicity. From its
beginning, where the outbreak of the
fire which spelled the doom of the
Volturno is recorded, the narrative
goes to the point where the blazing
ship was abandoned, the remaining
passengers taken off, and the captain
and what was loft o' the crew board
ed the waitiug Kroonland.
Capt. Inch, however, docs not say
what caused the lire. Although all pos
sible measures were taken to subdue
the fire the captain's story shows that
it was impossible to save the waten
below, Tho men were trapped in the
forecastle and burned to death, their ',
fellow sailors helpless to aid thorn.
Fought the Flames.
Then came explosions which wreck
ed part of the midship section of the |
steamer. The call for hell) by wire- j
less had gone out as soon as the,
flames shot through the forward
hatches aud the crew was doing Its
fighting best to stay the progress of
the blaze until assistance should come.!
It looked then as if there was no!
possible chance to save the steamer
and although the seas were running
high and the Volturno was rolling
heavily the captain had boats pro-j
visioend and swung out. "Boats Nos. I,
and ."> were smashed," is the simple
Way Capt. Inch describes the first re
sult of the attempt to launch the life
craft. But Chief Ofucor Miller's boat]
got away and although she capsized, j
throwing everybody out, she eventual
ly righted herself and Miller and
several of the crew got aboard her.
Another boat, described as No. u
commanded by Fourth Officer Lang
sell, also got away filled with steer
age passengers. Capt. Inch knew
nothing of the fate of these boats and
so far as is known no one else docs.
How Help Came.
Oapt. Inch describes the arrival,
one by one, of the rescuing crafts,
BUmlmoned by the wireless operators.
Who worked until II o'clock at night
when tho lire had progressed bo far
that the magazine on the bridge, con
taining signaling rockets and lights,
blew up, carrying away the aerial ap
paratus and Compelling the wireless
men to cease their efforts.
The Volturno's master covers in a
few words tho progress of the fire
through the night and tolls how when
the rescue steamers came up and
had failed because of the heavy
weather to got boats to the burning
liner some passengers jumped over
board and were picked nn by the at
tending craft, by midnight tho lire
had worked its way aft. but this dire
ful news was kept from the passen
gers, the captain says, and there was
no panic.
Fearful that the fire might burst
through tin? after deck before day
break and transform the entire steam
er into a mass of flames, the captain
and crew worked hard through tho
small hours (making rafts for use in
a.n emergency, requiring quick nbon
donment of the steamer. But the
night passed without the happening
Capt. Inch feared, and wind and sea
having moderated the transfer of the
passongcrs to tho steamers hovering
about the blazing Volturno was begun
at early dawn and accomplished 111
les^ than three hours without mis
hit p. By that time the lire was eat
ing UP through the after hatches,
however, and Capt. Inch and crew
left the doomed steamer to her fate.
Capt. Inch sent his story of the
disaster by wireless tonight from the
Kroonland .on which ho is being
brought to tills port, to the ofllcors of
the Uranium lino here. Capt. inch's
nai: alive reads:
His Story.
"At 6:?0 a. m? Octolx r !>, ?'i".
latitude 49.12 north, longitude Si.51
west, lire was reported in hold No. 1
by chief officer. At (5:5.1 a ,m. fin mos
were burning through .\'o. 1 hatches,
setting lire to the forecastle and all
deck fittings. I slowed the ship down
and kept her before the wind to en
able US to put the steam extinguishers
in operation, also three fire hose fro n
deck connections. The Maines were
gaining rapidly, coaching the holghi of
the foremost light and imprisoning the
WatQh below, who were burned to
death in the forecastle,
A series of explosions occurred,
wrecking the saloon and hospital
amidships, the compass and steering
gear also being damaged by tho ox
plosion, I gave orders to get help by
wireless ns soon a:; the flames burnt
the hatches.
"It seemingly being impossible to
save the ship, 1 had boats provisioned '
and swung .out. The ship was rolling'
heavily. Boats Nos. 1, 3 and 5 were
smashed but No. 2 was lowered in the
water with cabin passengers and
stewardess In charge of the chief of
ficer, H. P. Miller. After this boat
left the ship she capsized, throwing
her occupants into the water. She
afterwards righted herself and sev
eral of the crew got back Into the
boat, the chief officer being one of
them, No. 6 boat was lowered and
got away safely filled with steerage
pas ieng< i s In charge of Fourth Olll
cer Langsell. No. 7 boat on being
lowered was caught under the stern
of the ship, the boat being completely
wrecked.
"Meanwhile the cihef engineer, two
seamen and myself fought the tire and
apparently subdued the Haimos. 1 gave
orders to send no more boats away
as l had received word from the Car
mania that she was hoping to be with
us by 11 a. m. Lifo belts were served
out and put on each [tassenger. Food
was served out to them. At it a. m.
the bunker was found to be ablaze. It
being impossible to stop the lire in the
bunker on account of gases, the
watertight doors were closed and wa
ter poured down the No. 2 hatch on
to the tire, but the lire was gaining all
the time.
"At 11 a. in. the Carmania arrived
and lowered a boat, hut could not
reach the ship on account of the high
sea. Asked Carmania to look for No.
2 boat. The Steamer SeydliU arrived
and lowered boats, which could not
reach us. About :t p. in. the Carmania
returned and tried to reach the ship
with life-rarts, but all drifted past
our boat too far aw a;'
"Several steamers had arrived by
dusk. The Kroonland i>?t away
boats which made four attempts to
come, alongside, but were swept away
each time.
Biasing Fiercely Forward.
"At 9:30 p. in. the saloon and chart
house were flaming. The deck, bridge
end all before the funnel were blazing
! fiercely. Pumps ami dynamoos stop
! ped for want of steam. Wireless men
worked with the accumulators until
1 I p. in. when the magazine on the
bridge blew up, carrying the aerial
away.
"Several boats by this time were
lying off tho ship and induced pas
sengers to Jump and they were res
cued by boats. At 12 midnight the
weather was overcast and squally.
: Operations were suspended, it being
1 too dark for boats to see. The lire
meanwhile worked through the wo
men's steerage to the after end of the
i ship, hut we kept knowledge of this
from the passengers, who were quiet
throughout the rest of the night. Tho
chief engineer, tho Marconi men and
seamen and myself spent the night
in making small rafts In ease tho lire
burned through tho dock before day
light.
"At .")::'..", a. m. the first boat arrived,
Weather and sea having moderated,
' boats were enabled to come alongside)
t'ne ship, which enabled passengers to
embark quickly All the steamers
lying around the ship sent boats. Now
we were enabled to load these boats
with passengers at once. Tho passon
; gets it'll in a very orderly way and
there was no panic, women breaking
down and crying when help was
alongside, and all were off the ship
by s a. m., about J00 passengers. I
searched the ship myself and found
no one else on board, so decided to
abandon her as the No. -\ hatch was
woll alight by now, so tin remainder
of the crew ct.nbnrkcd on the Kroon
land.
"Nothing at all has been heard of
tlie two missing boats. Passing ves
sel., were asked to keep a lookout for
them.
"I wish to express my heartiest
thanks and gratitude to tho captains
of ships who stood by; also to the
Officers and crews who eanie to our
assistance for their bravery and en
durance in their endeavor to come
alongside the ship: also to the pas
sengers of the Kroonland for their
kindness to the rescued passengers,
engineers and crew and myself in bl
tinjr us out and doing everything for
us.
"Following are tho name.-, of tho
steamers that canto to our assistance:
Carmania, dosser Kurfucsrt, 1 a Ton
ralhc, Asian, Narrngansclt, Seydilt/.,
.Minneapolis, Devonian. Czar, Iluppa
hnnnock, also one steamer without
wireless. The ship was abondoned
in latitude 18.30 north, longitude 34.57
west."
