Steamship agents in this city are greatly
puzzled and somewhat disturbed over the
cabled report that the Cunard steamer

of the Treasury Department at
Washington forbiddInR steamships
to carry second class passengers. No such
order is known on this side. and it is
thought that blunder has been made by
the agents on the other side, to the great
Inconvenience and loss of Americans
abroad.
