learn the sxcursionists were all we'll

cided to leave the steamer New England

and baggage and take his ship direct to
Liverpool.
"why he did this cannot understand.
From my knowledge Of Mr.. Clark's con-
tract with the Dominion line steamship
company, no suoh arbitrary move was al
lowed. Undoubtedly some Of the passsn-

Liverpool on the vessel, were placed st

ence Of Mr.. Clark's methods In the east,
have NO doubt that none Of the passen-
gers suffered financially for their enforced
change OF route overland from Naples.
