THINKS WHITFIELD
BOARDED LINER
officer Saw Man Believed
Missing Flyer Before
Sailing Saturday.
By the Associated Press.

by Inc Associated Press.
NEW YORK, April 18.-An en-
barkation officer of the Red Star Line
said today a man closely resembling
the missing Andrew Carnegie Whit
field, nephew of the late steel multi
millionaire, was aboard the steamer
Westernland shortly before 1t sailed
Saturday.
The officer Hans Matzen, said the
unidentified man accompanied Frank
Stelnman, an aviator, aboard the
vessel, but was not listed as a pas
senger.
Mr. Matzen added he could not saw
positively whether Mr.. Steinman's
companion had left the Westernland
before embarkation, although it had
been assumed at the time that he
had
Earlier today a hotel employe at
Roosevelt Field Hotel said Mr.. Stein
man and another man had asked him
Saturday to cash $l00 check, signed
"A. c. Whitfield" and payable TO
cash" The employe said he believed
the man was Mr.. Whitfield.
Disappeared Friday.
Earlier, the belief had been that
young Whitfield, Princeton graduate
and an executive of a business ma
chine corporation, had met disaster
last Friday when he disappeared on
a projected short fight from Roosevelt
Field, Long Island to Brentwood Air
port, distance of % miles.
knowledge that Mr.. Steinman was
sailing Saturday for Southampton led
to inquiry at the steamship line. As
soon as 1t was disclosed that Wr.
Whitfield might not have left the
Westernland before it sailed, his
brother John N Whitfield, wirelessed
the liners master at sea, asking for
information.
Mr.. Matzen made plain that his
identification of Mr. Steinman's COM
panion was only tentative, but said
ne corresponded generally to the de-
scription given out by John Whitfield.
First Ray of Hope.
Mr.. Whitfield commented: This is
the first ray of hope 1 have seen"
His description of the missing 28-
year-old amateur pilot was as fol-
lows:
Five feet 8 inches tall; weight. 155
pounds; blue eyes; prematurely gray
hair. originally black; wearing a dark
gray suit, black shoes. a gray felt
hat, and possibly a polo coat belted
In the back. He wears a seal ring
bearing the family crest, a dove.
The brother earlier in the day also
issued an appeal to all private planes
in the East, particularly in Connecti-
cut, to watch for plane wreckage.
