TRAVELLERS' BURDENS LIFTED.

Agenta Will Now See that They Are Properly Prepared for Their Journeys Over the Ocean. > Persons coming from the Interior on their way to a trip at sea will now be provided for by agents whose business it will be to see that they are properly located on board their steamships. At the pier, if they come over the New York Central lines, they are met by a uniformed person, who takes entire charge of them. He sees that their baggage is checked, that they designate the trunks which are to go into the hold and the ones for their staterooms. These agents also greet the passengers arriving from Europe. The baggage of the passengers is transferred to the New York Central lines. They are advised about hotels; are advised on the subject of cab hire. Their transportation, their sleeping car berths and all matters of that kind are carefully arranged for them. This service is in the charge of two men of wide experience in the steamehip business. Captain Louis Ingweraon Is major domo at the piers of the American, Cunard, White Star, Atlantic Transport, Anchor, Wilson and Al-lan-State lines and Captain F. A. G. Schultze is at the North German Lloyd, Hamburg-American, French, Rotterdam, Red Star and Thingvalla line piers.—From the New York Herald.
