Sloman should both proposals with the note have rejected that integrity alone is not sufficient. It may be just one of those malicious stories that were traded at the Hamburg regulars of every time.

A half century later, specifically, on 22 January 1891, left the steam ship Auguste Victoria “from the port of Hamburg. With only 241, however handpicked passengers should go to the cruise in the Mediterranean. The guests were selected according to the request of Albert Ballin not money alone, but also for rank and level of education. “” “On the occasion of the test drive the Meteor” was the head of the Hamburg-America line, Albert Ballin, to speak on the first cruise ship and reported amused: lacking even in my most immediate vicinity not to people who believed it to be in my upper story not quite right, bold as I at the top of 241 passengers with the Auguste Victoria “- so was the young Empress – undertook an excursion trip to the Orient.” The high demand for education, the Hamburg major shipping company to the customers was, could not be long endured because the pleasure trip cost between 1800 and 2700 mark per person.
