New York, Aug. 31.-The American liner
New York. from Southampton and Cher

lant lot Of passengers that have crossed
the sea in many years. The new system
for facilitating the examination Of bag
gage worked like a charm
Deputy Surveyor John Bishop regretted
that by some error the folders telling the
passengers exactly what to do. with the
forms, had not been distributed TO the
passengers. But the forms were almost
Eelf-eXplanatory, especially to intelligent
Americans.
Each passenger got declaration
sheet, attached 10 which there was a
stub. On the second day out the blanks
were distributed among the passen-
gers. and they began to fill them right
away. After telling something about
themselves, they wrote the essential
things, that is. they told briefly the
articles they had bought on the other
side, and how much they paid for them.
