The Cunard Line steamship Lusl- tania, overdue for twenty-four hours and the subject of some nervous spe- culation by friends of the 918 passea- gers she had aboard, warped into her pier near noon to-day. No German crulsers had been the cause of her tardiness—just fog. For nineteen hours the Lusitania had been forced by a blanket of fox to anchor in the Mersey river, almost withing calling distance of Liverpool, before she could proceed on her vog- age, Capt. Daniel Dow was surprised to learn that this Tact had not been cabled to New York from Liverpool; he was not prepared to hear that thi delay in his arrival has caused @ whole lot of anxiety. Fog wasn't the only difficulty the Lusitania had to face. She bucked head winds and bie seas all the way over from the Irish Charfnel. The sens wer? so heavy that for two days | the big express steamer had to go @|on reduced speed and last Tuesday | she made only 379 miles, which is almost half her regulation speed f6r a twenty-four hour run. Among the Lusitania’s passengers were Mr. and Mrs. Vincent Astor, Mr. and Mrs. Perry Belmont, Henry Du- veen and Mrs. Duveen, Mr. and Mra. H. B, Duryea, Mrs. William K. Van- derbilt and two correspondents from the scene of the fighting in Belgium, Irvin 8. Cobb and J. M. Allison. prnatinants?
