While the surging crowd was still try

full of bright uniforms of all nations
while sight-seers from every part wan
dered from place to place and discussed
the wonders OF the day.
The ceremonies began at sunrise, when
from the tall tag pole near the tomb was
flung the immense American flag fur
nished by the Daughters of the kevolu
tion. There 1t will hy night and day,
until the winds have wore it away. At
the same moment the marines on the
waIships were piped to quarters and
landed on the shore to stand and receive
the head Of the land column.
The Fifth Avenue hotel was the scene
of hustle and excitement during the early
morning. The broad corridors were filled
with native and foreign diRnitaries. In
q side room were the mem bers of the re-
ception comm ittse. The guests of the
city were escorted TO this room one BY

New York. April H7.-Never but once
In the history of the world, and never
before in the history of the Uuited
States, has such tribute bson paid to
the noble dead as when today with
wondrous pageant by land and sea, ths
nation dedicated the tomb that now
holds the body Of Its hero, Ulysses 8.

1t was an occasion more of
triumphant eulogy and national
pride than OF funeral rite, for in these
12 years since first the nation mourned
for Grant, the keeness of grief has worn
away and in Its place there lives In the
hearts Of man that hero worship which
found tumultous vent today.

GUNBOAT TRIALS
The Wheeling Superior to Her Twin
Sister

SAN FRANCISCO, May 29.-The four
hour trial run of the gunboat Wheeling
took place today back and forth over a
twelve-mile course in the bay, and at
the finish her maneuvering powers were
thoroughly tested. She ran the. four
hours at 231.4 revolutions per minute,
with a steam pressure of 180 pounds,
which gave a speed of 1915 knots per
hour. Everything worked satisfactorily
her performance being even more credit
able than that of her sister ship, the
Marietta, less coal per horse power be-
ing required and the engine and fire
rooms cooler. This difference is due to
the dissmilarity of boilers used in the
two vessels, those in the Marietta being
of the Babcock- Wilcox and in the
Wheeling of the ordinary Scotch type.
The boiler power in both vessels is
slightly in excess of the capacity of the
engines for using the steam generated,
SO that no trouble would be experienced
in working the engines to their full
power at any time.
The Wheeling will be ready for deliv-
cry to the government in two weeks, and
the Marietta in three weeks from this
date, when they will go to the Mare
Island navy yard to be masted and to
receive their batteries boats and equip
