No Cowardice by the Crew CAPTAIN INCH DENIES STORIES OF PASSENGERS, HE HAD NO REVOLVER Was Burned Up With the Ship, B Says—Sailor Dived Into the Sea to Save a Baby. from Lifeboat New York, Oct, 16.—Francis Inch, the boyish-looking Briton who com- manded the burned steamer Volturno, came to port tonight bringing with him eighty-seven survivors, passen- gers and crew, of his ill-sturred v Sel. His story of the disaster, In which 136 lives were lost, had preceded him by wireless, but in a cabin of the Kroonland, ‘'which brought him here, Inch told his tale in simple phrase and modestly spoken detail that de- scribed more vividly than the wireless could picture the panorama of the Vol- turno’s loss and the rescue of more than 50 of those she had on board. No Cowardice by Crew. Cowardice there was none on the Volturno, either among officers or crew Inch said. There was no rush of se men which made it necessary for him to warn them back with his revolver. His only weapon he left in a drawer in his cabin and it burned with ship. And no one on board drew revolver. These statements he tended should refute stories by age passengers who arrived ye on the Grosser Kurfurst. Boats Did All They Could Do. The Volturno's master besides de- fending his own officers and men, said he had no criticism to make o0f the the a in- teor- terday 2 of any of the boats that stood by. “The Carmania did its best, the same as the others,” he said. “There none but praise for everyone. I didn’t expect a boat could live in those seas when the Carmania and the first few ships came up.” The Carmania did drop a boat, Inch declared, but it couldn’t get near, for the Volturno drifted faster than the crew could row. Later the Carmania sent forth six rafts, but they drifted across the Vol- turno’s bow and disappeared, More than that the Carmania could mot do, said Inch. No Rush of Crew Into First Boat. Eighteen cabin and two steerage entered the first lifeboat that ventured to leave the Volturno. Only enough of the crew stepped in to man it, said Inch; they did not rush to it, and it was not overcrowded. It entangled itself in its after tackle apd capsized. All in it were drowned, swept from sight by the seas, cept-€hief Officer Milter and a s ard, who climbed in it after she had righted and were rescued. In the next boat went th sengers and ten sailors. Th! away all right. It has not from. The third boat took off forty, ten of them sailors. As she settled into the water ten more jumped aboard ty pas- boat got been heard from the Volturno's deck. A wave wept it, under the Volturno's stern. She just sat on it and crushed it out of sight/' said Inch. ‘The bos'n dived and was the only one to escape. He was rescued. Praises Fourth Officer Lloyd. Inch denied reports of rotting tackie and fire hose and of unsafe lifeboats. The ropes are renewed once a year and the hose and boats were inspected before the voyage began and were in good condition, he said. He counted only three explosions, the last onc wrecking wheel and compass so that a hand-gear had to be rigsged up. Inch told of the bravery of Fourth Officer Lloyd in venturing out in t Volturno's last boat with four sailors to show the ten ships that stood by that the seas could be lived upon. ‘T opposed his suggestion,” Inch said. “I told him it was sure death. Tie | would go, however. ‘Let me show them,” he said. I let him go. Then the Crosser Kurfurst wirelessed ns that Lloyd and his men had arrived.” Passengers Afraid to Jump. Tnch denied storles of steerage pas sengers that women were swept over- board and babies trampled on in a rush to be rescued in the Grosser Kurfurst’s first boat that came in re- sponse to Lloyd's errand. Officer urged men and womsn to jump ove Dboard, for the lifeboat could not set near enough for them to be lowerel None dared to jump. “Show them how to jump,” Inch told crew. Two at a time thev leaped over the rafl. When passengers saw them reach the lifeboat they foliowed then; into the sea. With hoathooks ard oars some were rescued. Others wen to their death. No women were cued in this' wa Sailor Dived After Baby. this down,” said Inch to men in describing the iday morning. A woman joy threw her child toward boats. It fell short and the water sailor of the lifeboat dived in after It. H got it. ‘Here, take the kid’ he said to a mate in the boat. Then he climb ed in. It _was all done so quickly that the officer commanding the life- boat did not mnotice it. “Before I climbed down T went over the ship to see if anyone remained. ™ Inch said. “The fire had ecaten ifs way bevond amidships unddr the decks, I found no ome alive, though there Were bodies in the forecastle, men who had been cut off and burned to death.

One of his first acts upon arriving here was to send them a cablegram.

TO WIPE OUT HUERTA Will Deal No Longer With Huerta— Strong Likelihood Being Made With Constitutionalists. of Negotiations Washington, Oct. 16.—President Wil- son indicated today to those who dis- cussed the Mexican situation with him that he was irrevocably determined to deal no longer with the Huerta regime, but that further steps toward bringing Deace to Mexico were being considered. No move is expected, however, until after October 26, the date set for the Mexican election. % Just what the Washington govern- ment will do is a madtter of speculation among the high officials; but the trend of events they say, is unmistakably toward conducting negotiations In some form or another with the constitution- alists. May Recognize Constitutionalists. The policy ol the United States has been to mak a complete record of having attempted to hLandle the prob- lem by peaceful mean: » to the pres. ent parleys have been led on with the Iiuerta authorities, who have re- jected the good offices of the United States. Strong pressure now is being brought upon the president and Secre- an to give the constitutional- an opportunity to compose the sit- through the support of this ports that the ident was pre- ng to recognize the belligerency ot the constitutionalists are based chiefly upon the friendly disposition toward them that has arisen among admin tration officials since Huerta's procla- mation of dictatorship. The sugges tion has been carried o President Wil- son by those upon whose judgment he and Secretary Bryan have in the past been guided to some cxtent, and while their attitude is one of waiting until October 26 arrives, it appeared today that some move indicating support for constitutionalists was not at all improbable. Cohtention of Constitutionalists. Such action might not be formal e ognition .which would present a curi ous tangle in technicalities of interna- tional law, but it is pointed out by those who are urging informal deal- ings with the constitutionalists that in reality Bovernor Carranza is legally elected chief executive of the state of Coahuila, and that he and Governor Maytorena of Sonora justify thelr armed resistance of Huerta as a meas- ure of defense against those who took possession of the federal government machinery in the Mexican capital by arbitrarily overthrowing Madero. "hat President Wilson believes the Mexico City administration is incapa. ble of restoring constitutional authority | is evident, and there is a well founded | | understanding that the Washington | zovernment would adopt a very drastic policy immediately, but for the fear that it would interfere with the dome: tie programme of currency and other important legislative reforms. To Sweep Huerta from Power. Those who know President Wilson's titude best say he realizes the value of a show of force in the situation, but is unwilling to give his consent to any demonstration except with the inten tion of backing it up with actual use | of force if events call for it. Teans for dealing with the tangle through peaceful measures, however. have by no means ben exhausted, and the like- lihood is that before any military or al demonstrations serion considered support may be thrown to- ward the constitutionalists with the view of sweeping the Huerta regime from power The Washington the elimination vernment would of Huerta, | weicome | and 1f this ean be accomplished by Jifting the embago on arms or giving | the constitutionalists the moral sup- | port of this country, many offcials | | here favor such a policy | Bl T | A pousLE TRAGEDY | FOLLOWS INFIDELITY Cincinnati Couple Sought Death To- gether in Hotel.
