Her Misunderstanding Cruise from

ON BOARD THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
DIsPATCH-BOAT DAUNTLESS, May
go, via KEY WEST, FLA, June 2, II 40 A
M.-The United States battleship Oregon
Joined the fleet this morning, finishing
the most remarkable long-distance cruise
in the history of modern ironclads. Her
reception by the fleet was worthy OF her
achievement. Coming along at a l5-knot
speed. she swept in a majestic semi-circe
through the fleet TO a point opposite the
flagship, solid ranks Of whitehead, cheer
ing sailors manning the sides OF each
vessel as she passed.
The first news Of the Oregon's arrival
at Key West was brought to the squad
ron by the Associated Press dispatch-boat
soon after sunrise. The fleet was conse-
quently on the lookout for her, and when,
almost at noon, there doomed up gray
hull on the northwest horizon, there was
vigorous wigwagging from ship to ship.
Marine glasses showed the ponderous out
lines Of the navy's crack heavyweight,
and showed also that she carried bone
in her teeth" as she piled up the white
water on each side of her bow. Fifteen
knots, II it's a mile" was the verdict, as
she raced in on the home stretch or her
long journey, and watches held on her
as she approached, confirmed II.
FINE MECHANISM.
She had decided list 10 port from
hastlly-filed bunkers, that there had been
no time to trim since dashing into Key
West for fuel and out again. But her
short stay there spoke volumes for the
mechanism Of Pacihc-built ship. which
could do a l3,00O-mie run, throw In fresh
coal. and steam out TO what might be a
battle-ground without stopping TO even
tighten a c:ankpin.
The dispatch-boats lying outside the
squadron raised their flags as the Oregon
bore down, while her officers and men
waved their hands and caps were silently
lifted. The big fighter slowed down to a
majestic pace. and then the noise arose.
