A few minutes later cries for help
were heard rising from the water
near the Carmania, and then man
who proved to be a steerage passen-
ger of the sVolturno wearing life,
belt was located by means Of the,
searchlight a short distance away
tossed about by the sea. He was
rescued, but only after one of thei
sailors of the Carmania had bee1f
lowered into the water with life
line which he placed around the waist
of the exhausted floating man.
Other cries were heard, but these
gradually died away and no further
bodies or swimming people were seen.
About midnight a ray of hope came,
for 1t was seen that the flames were
not making much Roadway aft Of the
engineroom or the after bulkhead Of
the Volturno.
BY -daybreak the Volturno was still
floating with her great human cargoA
huddled in masses on her poop. The
sea had moderated considerably and
fiotilla of boats gathered around
the stern of the yolturno.

Ships OF Uranium Line
Have Excellent Record
for Safety and Efficiency

NEW YORK, Oct. 1.-THE Uranium
Steamship Company operates two
other steamships beside the Inflated
Volturno on the New York to Rotter-
dam route. The ! others are the
Uranium and the Gampanei'o.
The off1ces of the company are at ls
Broadway. On several occasions the
company has been In conflict over the
low rates 1t charged. Its minimum
rate was s45. All the staterooms OH
board the company's vessels are out
side and quite spacious.
Very few mishaps have befallen the
vessels of the company. The most
notable of these. however. occurred to
the Uranium when she went on the
rocks in dense fog off Halifax.
The steamship company and the
officers Of the Uranium were highly
praised on that occasion for the ex-
cellen discipline maintained in that
emergency. By their promptness and
presence of mind the officers and crew
prevented an imminent panic, and in
a comparatively short time had the
effects of the passengers off the
stranded vessel. The passengers also
We're taken off. There was no sem
blance of disorder and not a pas
senger was hurt In any way.
The steamship remained In her
perilous position several days before
she was hauled off The crew stuck
to her all the while.
1t was said today that the discip-
line maintained aboard the Uranium
was also maintained aboard the Vol
turno.
Two years ago last March there
was great deal of anxiety for the
safety of the Volturno because she
was Ave days overdue In reaching
