The ves- sell was crowded, many Americans ~ returning from the continent be-' V ing aboard. Some of these -people} had thrill-ing experien-ces to relate` while others had not failed: to ex- tract humor from the most serious situations and had: stories to tell of. what theyxsaw and heard which were m~i~nth provoking in the ex- treme. The, opinion seems. to pre--~ .vail `among those who have lately got away from the .continent that." the tourists `who, made the mad rush on the "declaration of War were hysterical and excited and in their 1 easgerness to get away lost "every- thing they had. This could have been avoided had -a little patience been exercised. Tliue-Scandana'vian {carried its utmost `li-Isi-t of passen-| gers. All west boun boats are` I crowded. but `boats from America will dock and not a single passen- ger pass across the gang plank._ The great Lus'itani`a Fenvtered port a `week before Mr. Knight sailed and gone solitary passenger went ashore.
