ALTERATIONS THAT THE STEAMSHIP wIELAND
HAS OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES TO LESSEN THE
ANNOYANCE OF TRAVEL by SEA.
Among the pet steamers of the Hamburg American
Packet Company is the Wieland. which has lately
been laid up ut Hamburg for repairs. and which
sailed from New York for tho first time yesterday
since her transformation by the hands of German
carpenters. In o great many respects the Wieland
is now vessel. Built at the start ocean con-
veyance should be. large and seaworthy. the VIE
land has been improved to extent that would
surprise all her former passengers The sitting
at the head of the first cabin staircase been
entirely remodelled This is the first alteration that
strikes the observers attention. From the deck
that formerly contained only the skylight to the
dining room has been raised an addition to the re-
ception room, made of black walnut without
and OF red velvet and comfort within. For
ward Of the sitting room. and separated from it
by partition and door, has been constructed
smoking room. where gentlemen may recliue at
but not ut fun length, for that is prevented by
between each soat) to smoke read, while two
three tables furnish convenenccs for card playing
other games. The reception room itself is en-
larged and has number of seats intended for
the of single individuals, where people OF
whirigig tendencies will not be able to convert
themselves into monopolies. Further along upon
the hurricane or flush deck has been
built the kitchen. the doors OF which
being closed 1t becomes inofiensive to the nostrs
OF the sick passenger Formerly the smoking
room and kitchen were arranged either side OF
the dining saloon which any ocean traveller liable
to sickness would regret. As it now is board

twenty-six additional seats, Is free from Disagree

is lighted by portfolios. with improved refectors,
quite well as by the original skyiight. The re-
cepton room becomes now essentially ladies'
room. and diners will not bo disturbed by the
sppearence of patients of the the
lounges in the middle Of the cabin.
decided improvement, too. has been made
in the provision Tor sick travellers. The
officers, who best able to bear with poor quar-
tiers in storm, now Obliged to test their
worthiness in q large room near the screw, while
their former rooms amidships have been trans
formed into double staterooms for the of less
salty passengers. The officers Excepting the
captain and his first assistant) now occupy
what used to be the hospital. and the lat
ter has been transferred little nearer amidships
where the unhappy invalids will have some chance
for recovery. Some additions to the comfort OF
ond cabin passengers have also bt en- made on board
the Wcland, and her owners now wait to hear the
popular verdict before reconstructing in similar
fashion the other vessels OF their line.
