Transcriber's notes:
* In the heading, "Arriving at the Port of NIPE.,May 25,
1910 is an error" It should read, Arriving at the Port
of New York May 25, 1910
* The passenger numbers written by the original recorder began at
# 1 at each port where passengers boarded the ship. For ease
in referring to the transcriber's notes the formatter has
renumbered the list consecutively.
