HONGKONG, June 6.-The United
States cruiser Olympia, with Admiral
Dewey on board, left here at o'clock
this afternoon. There was no demon

time OF the departure. While passing the
British cruiser Powerful, the band OF the
Olympia played the British national an
them, and gave bugle salute. There
was no firing. The Powerful replied with
a similar salute, and her band played
Hail, Columbia"
AS the Olympia passed the Italian ad-
mirars ship, the Olympia's band played
the Italian national anthem, and gave an
admirals salute, which compliments
were returned.
Then the Olympia's band played AUD
Lang SyRe," and the band of the Power
ft played Home, Sweet Home"
Admiral Dewey is apparently anxious
to avoid all demonstrations.
Consul WiIdmGn remained on the Olym-
pia until the last minute, with
few friends Of the Admlrals. who went
on board TO bid him farewell. At O'Clock
sharp the ensign was run up TO the peak

Mr. Saylor said:
In every state the department OF agri-
