SAFE IN PORT.
The Squadron Of Evolution Returns From
an Eight Months Cruise.

New YORK, July 3O.-The Squadron of
Evolution, which has been cruising in for
egn waters the last eight months, dropped
anchor in Gravesend Bay last night. The
first appreciatiye patriots to welcome the
three handsome ships home were at Ocean
Grove. AS they passed the summer pleas
ure-seekers on the beach the Chicago, At
lanta and Boston went through some of the
evolutions they had extensively practiced
since November. The people at Long
Branch also had chance to see the white
ships drill. The progress of the squadron
toward and beyond Sandy Hook was slow,
as the air was somewhat smoky and the
navigators did not wish to run any risk.
The Chicago, which is the flagship, led the
Boston and Atlanta up the coast and into
Gravesend Bay. She dropped anchor at
AS o'clock, eXtinguished her side and
fore-top lights and displayed anchor lights.
The Boston and Atlanta followed suit.
Then Admiral Walker began signaling or
ders to the other ships by electric lights.
Answering flashes came from the Boston
and Atlanta. This electrical conversation
ceased in a few minutes and the squadron
went to sleep. The ships came up to quar-
antine this morning and We're inspected.
They came from Rio Janeiro, port seldom
free of yellow fever. There had been three
deaths since the squadron lett home. The
crews were not allowed to go ashore at any
port in Brazil.
Admiral Walker was seen by a reporter
this afternoon and in conversation was en-
thusiastlc over the crews. He took occasion
to deny emphaticaly the stories which
have been printed here from time to time of
disaffecti0n in the squadron, troubles
among officers, etc. He said he had never
been on cruise that was so entirely free
from anything like dissatisfaction or dis
turbance on board the vessels. OF course
in squadron containing 1900 officers and
men under military restrictions occasional
slight troubles were bound to occur, and of
course penalties we're inflicted. But no
serious offenses were committed and no
penalties that could be described as severe.
The squadron was received abroad with
the utmost kindness and courtesy. 1--WE
were IN fact" added the Admiral, 'feted
from tine moment we dropped anchor at Lis
bon until we left the Mediterranean station,
and at Rio de Janeiro the feting was con-
tnued with redoubled zeal. The Brazilians
indeed construed our coming as special
honor and could not sufficiently express
their appreciation of it"

Stoddart's Rev. Jacob Fletcher, the dissent
ing minister, is one of the best studies in
list that has already made his name famous
on the American stage. Stoddart is an
Englishman, native and to the manner

cumbent of Bethel Chapel, Steepleford, he
makes the portrait complete by delicate
lights and shades unknown to one less
familiar with the peculiarities Of English
life, especially the religious side of it,
where the poor parson, whether dissentient
or in the established church, is but little
more respected now than in the days when
he sat "below the SALT" at some rich
patrons table. Hoggard, the tanner, and
Fletcher, the preacher. are types that will
always leave an impression on E nglish as
