Information for Passengers
Letters and Telegrams. The Chief Steward is charged with the distribution of incoming mail.
Letters for Passengers will be brought on board at the port of destination before the Passengers land. In their own interest, therefore, Passengers should personally ascertain whether there is any mail for them before they leave the ship.
Before leaving the ship Passengers are recommended to notify the purser's office of their address, so that all mail arriving after their departure may be forwarded to them.
Letters and telegrams may be directed in c/o any of the company's agents.
Telegrams which are to be dispatched from the next port are accepted at the purser's office only; wireless messages at the ship's wireless station.
Photographer. The photographer is entitled to charge for his services in accordance with the tariff exhibited.
Service. Passengers are requested, in their own interest, to submit any complaints they desire to make to the Captain at the time of his daily round of inspection every morning. The wishes of the Passengers will be considered in the best possible manner.
Firearms. The carrying of firearms of any kind is prohibited by law in the U. S. A. Offenders are liable to heavy fines and punishment.
The purser will accept valuables etc. duly sealed or enclosed in an envelope bearing the name of the owner, for safe keeping during the voyage, but without any guarantee on the part of the Company. The purser will give a receipt on demand.
Baggage. Only small parcels, and hand baggage in limited quantity may be taken into the stateroom. Trunks and other bulky articles must be stored in the baggage room, to which Passengers have access daily, at stated times.
Each passenger must fill up a "Customs-Declaration" of his or her personal luggage.
In the case of families the oldest member is entitled to fill up this declaration for the whole family. Blank forms will be distributet on board the steamer.
Pieces of baggage, packets &c., destined to be re-forwarded, for storage, or for delivery to a third party, are to be handed to the Baggage Officer or the Baggage Master who, alone, are competent to receive them.
The Company accepts no responsibility for any article handed over by Passengers to other members of the ship's personnel.
Passengers are requested to take care that, when leaving the steamer, no personal effects are left behind in the cabins or other rooms.
Passengers who are required to observe their immigration formalities at Ellis Island have to exchange the Company's luggage tickets for the Ellis Island metal checks as soon as their baggage has been inspected by the American custom-house officers, and before proceeding to Ellis Island.
