Plane In Okla Searched When Threat Found In Cargo Hold

Monday February 27, 12:17 PM EST 

  OKLAHOMA CITY (AP)--An airplane being loaded for takeoff in Oklahoma City
was evacuated Monday after threatening words were found scrawled inside the
cargo hold, a Will Rogers World Airport spokeswoman said.   No dangerous
devices were found.   An employee for Trans States Airlines, a regional
carrier for United Airlines, notified authorities shortly after 7:30 a.m.
that "suspicious and threatening graffiti" had been found in the belly of
the 50-passenger jet, said Will Rogers World Airport spokeswoman Karen
Carney.   She didn't disclose the exact words but said they were written in
an area where only authorized personnel should have access.   The plane was
still at the gate being loaded with luggage when the message was found.
Passengers were removed and the plane was towed to a remote section of the
airport, where the luggage and plane were searched.   There were 44
passengers on the airplane, scheduled for a flight to St. Louis
