Are Sc. Record. Faked,

In an unsigned article for the May
Atlantic, it is asserted that the rec
ords of the Cunard liners have been
deliberately faxed by their command
er, and that they have been rendered
unfit for service by remaining on duty
for from thirty to forty hours on a
stretch. In accounting for faxed speed,
the writer says that by deviating from
the regular steamer lanes 100 miles is
saved, while the record was made to
apply to the longer route. The writer
claims to be an officer Of liner. Gem
eral Agent Sumner Of the Cunard Line
has denounced these statements as
false, saying that the rules OF the line
required all captains to follow the reg
ular course, and that such change of
course would be detected by other
steamers.
