NEW YORK, Oct. 1.-THE tragedy
OF the Volturno is being tod, today.
in the cries OF sorrow and JOY OF three
little sea waits at the Nurses settle
ment, in New York's east side. There
IN soft. little beds are three nameless.
homeless orphans. survivors of the
disaster which claimed 1856 lives.
When the lifeboats of the Kroon.
land, the first rescue ship to reach
New York with women and children
survivors, and Captain Inch and the
remnant OF his crew, were put along
side the burning Volturno eight days
ago, these three children were tossed
from the deck to the Kroonland's sea
men. When a census was taken OF
those aboard as the Red Star liner
pulled away from the burning ship, il
was found that these children had
been separated from their parents.
|. Later wireless messages failed to
find the parents and, believing they
were among the lost, three first-class
passengers OF the Kroonland-Iady
Evelyn Bullock, daughter of the gov.
erQor Of Bermuda: Mrs. Florence kei.

adopted them. For seven days these
children were the pets Of the pas
sengers. One. q boy about Ave, with
hair cropped short, was named "Wii.
liam the Silent" because he would say
nothing. The other two were babies
too young to talk.
As soon as the Kroonland docked
the children were taken to the Nurses
settlement by Mrs. Kelly. One OF the
little ones, girl, was threatened with
pneumonia. and Is in the settlement
hospital today.
The children will be cared for until
1t IL absolutely certain their parents
are dead, and then, il is said, they
will be adopted by wealthy New York
families.
Captain Inch. shrinking from praise,
and hugging his dog Jack, which he
saved before leaving the ship himself,
today will make detailed report or
the accident to the Uranium Steam
ship company.
