The big steamer Sandy Hook carry
ing the Mayor and Committees which
We're selected to board the Olympia and
and formally welcome Admiral Dewey
and with upward of thousand distin-
guished guests and officials on board.
steamed away from the citys piers at
the battery shortly after 10 o'clock to
make the visit to the Olympia and
start the naval parade. The great
white boat carried the flag of the citS
and was gaily dressed in bunting. The
police boat Patrol followed her as ar
escort. Among the invited guests on
the Sandy Hook were the Governors of
a number of States, the Justices of the
Supreme Court of this State, a number
of city officials, the members of Ad-
| miral Dewey'S family, Archbishop Cor
rigan, Senator DepeW, Richard Croker
and Seth Low. Among the Governors
on board We're the following: Governor
Sweeney, North Carolina; Rollins, New
Hampshire; Dyer, Rhode Island; Rich
ards, Wyoming; McMillin, Tennessee;
Stone, Pennsylvania.
AS soon as Captain Lamberton sight
ed the Sandy Hook he gave the word
to the officer of the day and a bugle
blast summoned the marine guard aft.
The men lined up to the port side of
the deck, while Captain Lamberton
took up a position on the starboard att
gangway. Admiral Dewey paced the
deck few feet away
All the officers on the ship were In
undress uniform and wore no swords.
Admiral Dewey carried a pair of new
doeskin gloves in his hand.
The Sandy Hook arrived at the Olym-
pia at 1915 o'clock. The Olympia 8
launch put off to the Sandy Hook, but
the Mayor could not get on board, the
deck being too high. The police boat
Patrol saw the trouble the Mayor was
in, and she steamed up alongside the
Sandy Hook.
The Mayor then stepped aboard the
Patrol, from which he boarded the
launch. The launch put off for the
Olympia and steamed up to- the star
board side.
The Mayor ascended the ladder ana
stepped on board the Olympia's deck
at precisely II o'clock.
Admiral Dewey was standing a few
feet aft of the gangway when the
Mayor stepped on deck. Mayor van
Wyck stepped Immediately toward the
Admiral and introduced himself. They
shook hands warmly, then the Ads
miral shook hands with Mr.. DoWnes,
whom he had met before. Mayor Van
Wyck was apparently about to speak
when the Admiral put his hand on ms
elbow and turned him toward the en-
trance to Captain Lamberton's cabin.
Let's go inside" he said.
The whole party went into the CABIN.
Captain Lamberton bringing up the
rear.
They We're inside less than five min
utes before they returned to the deck.
Admiral Dewey wore a medal on MS
left breast that had not been there ten
minutes previously. He took a turn
or two on the deck with the Mayor
while the rest of his party stood around
talking to the ships officers. Inen
the barge was called alongside again
and Admiral Dewey led the Mayor
down the gangway and boarded the
barge with him. The barge took It's
passengers to the Patrol, and the Pa
troll transshipped them to the SANDY
Hook The band of the Sandy Hook
struck up "See the Conquering Hero

line There was no possible way of
estimating the crowd. The morning
papers declared there were 1,50O,0 600
visitors in the city.
Upon the Hudson pandemonium
reigned supreme. Aerial bombs broke
at intervals overhead in puffs of white
smoke, and a feathery canopy of steam
hung over the advancing fleet as hum
dreds of steam whistles screamed con-
tinually. The narrowing throat of the
river crowded the advancing vessels
together in almost compact mass. The
broad arrow formation still drove the
head of the column forward unmolested
through the ranks of the waiting YES
sells.
Storm clouds that had gathered
down the bay followed close in the pa
geant's wake. A sharp wind bred white
caps even in the narrow river, and
few rain drops pattered on the decks.
The glare of an angry sky turned the
harbor behind the warshipS to molten
lead, upon which the gigantic figure
of Liberty seemed to stand for a time
and was soon swallowed in bank of
gray haze. Then the threatening sky
relented. The sun broke out ahead,
and painted across the Sullen clouds a
rainbow arch that stretched from Man
haitian to the Jersey shore. It seemed
bit of Natures art work spread by a
kingly miracle at the opportune mo-
ment, beggaring mans more humble
efforts on shore, but forming a fit
ting arch of triumph beneath which the
victorious Admiral sailed to his tri-
umphal anchorage
The old Portsmouth crew manned the
rigging as the Olympia passed off
Grants tomb, and navol reserves on
the ST Marys did the same. Round
the stake boat the Olympia turned
smartly, her guns throbbing a deep
throated salute to the resting place
of another national hero. The other
vessels of the white squadron swung
around the ST. Marys in turn, each sa-
luting the tomb though at the head of
the line the sound of further guns was
lost in the roar of steam whistles
The turn of the parade broke the for
nation of the police boats beyond re-
pair The warships doubling back into
the mass of advancing boats threat
ened for a time serious consequences,
but the Olympia and her consorts safe
~ dropped dncnOF dI last III IcNclSCO
column, and the water pageant passed
the Admiral in review. The police
boats reappeared as individuals, and
unceremoniously shouldered intruding
vessels out of the line of march. The
official procession and it's varied follow
ing of tugs launches, steam dredges
and excursion boats rounded the st.
Marys and came down the river in an
indistinguishable aquatic mob that was
still passing long after the night IL
Elimination had begun.
From the time the British yacht Erin
started she certainly was the chief at
traction along the river front after the
Olympia had gone by, and Sir Thomas
Upton was accorded an ovation all
along the line.
After the signal for the start was
given, the Corsair led, followed by a
magnificent string of steam yachts
smothered in flags in two long lines.
The Erin headed the starboard column,
with Colonel John Jacob Astor's Nour-
mahl right astern, while the Niagara,
with Howard Gould on board, headed
