Sword Presentation From
the Steps of the Capitol
IMPOSING SPECTACLE
Of Admiral And President
Possessed a Peculiar
Meaning To Thou
sands There.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 3.-The nations
supreme homage to its incompatible
hero was given today with almost un
precedented enthusiasm.
The fourth war president of the
United States, with his official asso-
ciates and supported by the governors
of dozen states, north, east, west and
south, and the populace of the national
capital gathered from every communi-
ty of the union, have acclaimed their
pride and affection for their chief mill
tary magistrate and hero of the repub-
lie since Washington and Grant.
The impressive delivery On the steps
| of the capitol OF the priceless military
emblem unanimously voted by tie re-
presentatives of all the people was not
more significance than the unique hon.
ors accorded him in the pageant of
triumph this morning from the White
House to the historic spot where most
of the presidents have taken the oath
of executive responsibility.
General Grants progress down
Pennsylvania avenue to his Inaugural
tion thirty years ago is the one in
stance to be called of such national
and military hero.
The spectacle of a president and
popular man eide by side in a carriage
from the White House to the capitol,
with an imposing escort and in the
presence of vast concourse of people, |
has had peculiar and solemn meaning
which until now has invariably sig |
nified change OF political rulers, and |
few of the thousands of excited wit |
nesses of the presentation ceremonies |
today could dispel their impression |
that the great Admiral was to conti-
nue. to be the central figure of the ma
tion for the next four years.
Dewey arose before O'Clock this
greatly refreshed. A militia
ry escort under the direct command of
Miles was already in
waiting at the White House.
After a little delay the president as
sisted the admiral into his own car
rage, and just after IL O'Clock the
moved down the avenue
with the general commanding the
army at its head.
There was tremendous cheering as
;he procession moved toward the ca
oitol, where Long made the address .of
Welcome. The president in a feeling
speech presented the word and the sad
nirsl in his usual manner replied.
Admiral Dewey will be wined and
lined tonight and preparations for his
are arranged on lavish
Gale.

1:39 p. m.-The Columbia rounded
the fret turn and the Shamrock fol-
lowed two minutes later. Both the
boats are being sailed for all they are
worth and the Columb bia gradually in
creasing her lead.
The Columbia made a bluff at a star
board tack, but immeG lately went back
to port. The Columbia is about 1
minute and 25 seconds ahead of the
Shamrock.
2:30 p. m.-Both yachts knocked and
tackled to stsrboard and the Columbi
then took the port tack, crossing the
Shamrock's bow q comfortable lead
ahead. The Columbia completely out
pointed the cup challenger.
2:4O p. m.-The yachts are close to-
gether and the crews joking for the
best breeze. The Colum bia, being
better handled, shook off the chal-
lenger after five minutes hard work.
GALLILEE, Oct. 2, 2--30 p. m.-The
Columbia is losing ground. The
Shamrock struck fresher breeze and
the Columbia seems almost becalmed,
while the Shamrock is going ahead.
800 p. m. The boats have rounded the
last turn close together.
3:20 p. m.--The wind is light .snd the
Shamrock appears to be leading.
So far the race has been one of the
hardest fought in the history of the
national cup contests. It may be that
"Lipton's Luck" will bring him little
favorable wind whereby he may be able
to win out in the yacht race here.
The Columbia seems to be standing

pointing better. AS yet it is

THE YACHT MHYFLOWER
New York Parties Hoped to Profit
 by Her Sale.

Washington, Feb. IA s1heme of some New York people to profit at the expense of the government has been frustrated at the navy department. An effort was made recently to have the auxiliary vessel Mayflower sold at public auction after the manner Of other ships which were used in the service of the navy during the war
 The Mayfower, one of the most gor- geous yachts acquired by the govern ment, was purchased from the Ogden Goelet estate. The vessel was built at the Cramps yard in Philadelphia, and was known all over the country among yachtsmen as a superb structure If the ship could be condemned and of fered at public sale, there was hope that it could be disposed of at a sac rifice to the government, and a posi- tive advantage to the purchasers.
 Secretary Long was advised of the efforts of those interested in the trans action and most to be benefited by it. He was not misled by the misrepre- sentations made in regard to the un- serviceability of the vessel He di- rected that the board of inspection and survey, which usually examines yes sells before their condemnation should visit the M,ayflower. The report of that board was received today, and shows that the vessel is useful for special service, provided certain minor repairs and insignificant alterations are made Secretary Long has direct ed that an expert survey be made or the MayfiOwer with view to ascer- taining in detail just what is required The examination will take place at u.

NEGRO" TO BE SUBSTITUTED.
Proposition to Eliminate "Colored
 From All Alabama Statutes.

Montgomery, Ala, Feb. s1-Repre- sentative Jones of Covington intro duced into the house of Representatives today a unique resolution, to the ef- feet that in all transactions in this state of a judicial, educational or bus mess character, and in all matters, public or private, where it is neces- sary to distinguish between the Anglo Saxon and the black races the word "colored," as now applied to the black race, shall be eliminated and the word negro" substituted therefor, and that in writing or printing the word the initial letter shall be a capital, as is the custom in respect to other dis tinctive races.
 The preamble to i,he resolution sets out that ''colored" is not a generic word, and that the word negro" is not intended as an insult or stigma to the race. The Alabama statutes now refer to the negro as "a person of color"
