Tiverpool oct. 14.-Early this morn

Carmania at Liverpool, explained why
the Carmania had only one survivor OF
the VolrIrno aboard After recounting
the early incidents of the attempts at
rescue and the failure of the Carma-

said:
"It was foolish. Of course, to use the

is my personal opinion, for think the
boats had no chance Of surviving in
those waters. | realized this after |
