longing to Admiral SIMPSONS fleet re-
ceivcd thousands Of callers yesterday.
The crowds which visited the war ves-
sells were second only to those which
greeted them during their progress up

six ferrybuats was in service, and the
regular schedule was abandoned, boats
being dispatched from either terminal
as rapidly as they could be loaded and
unloaded. During the greater portion
Of the day they carried as many pas
sengers as the law would allow. In
asmuch as the big Castleton and the
Robert Garrett have a capacity close
to 5000. it is estimated that fully 125,-
600 people visited the island during the
day.
The big excursion steamers bound for
Coney Island and New Jersey summer
resorts all followed the staten island
course, instead of keeping in toward
the Long Island coast thus giving tens
of thousands of additional excursion
lists the opportunity of viewing the
warshps Small boats were in great
demand in the vicinity Of the Staten
Island shore, and the boatmen fairly
coined money Even canal boats were
Impressed into service It is estimated
that at times at least $50 small boats
swarmed in and out among the big
warships.
