 Receive Modest Reception


 He then spent most of the morning looking over newspapers and receiving reporters He was just finishing a midday breakfast when Sir Thomas Lipton called on him. With Sir Thomas were pr. Mckay and other visiting Englishmen.
 ''I suppose you have come for the tea," said Admiral Dewey, referring to Sir Thomas gift of five pounds of tea to each man on the ship while he was at Colombo "No, you are welcome to that if any body can drink it." replied Sir Thomas. The admiral and the owner of the cup challenger had fifteen minute talk. As Sir Thomas and his friends left the Olym- pia a half hundred of the ships crew for ward cheered the baronet
 ''I could not stop them," cried out Ad- miral Dewey, waving his hand at Sir Thomas. They hadn't any orders to do that"
 Admiral Dewey then had a succession of notable callers.
 Rear Admiral Philip voyaged down the bay and paid an official call, attended by Commander Kelly The rear admiral sa- lute was not fired by request of Rear Ad- miral Philip.
 Eleven Have Typhoid Fever
 Dr. Sanborn of the port physicians staff, visited the Olympia and looked at her pa pers. Eleven of the crew of 375 men have typhoid fever. Some of the cases are con- valescent and all of them are of mild type, according to pr. Percy, the ship surgeon. No one has died of the fever, and with this exception, the sailors and marines are well. Dr. Percy Is unable to account for the presence of typhoid on the ship. The cases are not numerous or se- rious enough to cause him alarm, and they will be taken to hospital tomorrow. George Bidwell, collector of the port; Postmaster Van Cott, and several of the customs officials visited the admiral, and were personally conducted around the ship by him.
 All day tugs, sail boats and excursion steamers came up near the Olympia and took look at her Everybody who asked was permitted to come on board. Some of the parties of sight-seers on launches and steamers were invited by the officer of the deck to come up the gangway. The Olym- pias anchorage was rather lonely place, and altogether not a great many vessels made point of going there. It is, however.
 
 man Lloyd steamer Saale, outward bound, passed close to the Olympia. The Saale passengers crowded to the rails. Admiral Dewey responded to the waving handkor- chiefs by lifting his cap several times The Saale's band played 'The Star-Spangled Banner" and the Olympia dipped her flag. The Cunarder, Urania, passed out half an hour afterwards. She fired seventeen sig nal bombs. Admiral Dewey directed the Olympia's band to play God Save the Queen."
 The admiral about o'clock returned Sir Thomas Lpton's visit. Lieutenant Brumby went with him.
 Dewey Visits Sir Thomas
 Sir Thomas met the admiral at the star board gapgway with his friends, and the entire party went to the after cabin, where the health of the admiral, the Shamrock and of course, the Columbia, were drunk amid enthusiasm.
 The admiral remained on board for nearly half an hour, and then started for his ship. The Erins crew began to cheer, and as his launch drew away, the entire ships company, guests, officers, crew, servants, cingalese and all, led by Sir Thomas, with a hip, hip hurrah, gave three honest cheers, the kind the admiral heard from the British warships in Manila bay. Ad- mral Dewey waved his gold-bound cap like a school boy he stood on the rail of his little white canopied launch, being given hearty welcome in his own home waters by hundred foreigners.
 Admiral Dewey proposes, unless his plans be changed by the reception committee to bring the Olympia up the lower hay and anchor inside the harbor with the squadron of United States warships off Tompkins- vile, of which squadron he is now in su- perior command.
