ing the nations guest the freedom of
the District. The ceremony was per
formed by District Commissioner
Wight in the presence of the admiraPs
fleet captains. the military and naval
members of the party and as many of
the reception committee as could be
crowded into the admiraPs car.
John Addison Porter, secretary to the
President, first extended President Nc
Kinley's greetings, to which the admi-
raj returned his thanks very briefly.
Commissioner Wight then said: "Ad-
miral Dewey, you are now in the Dis
trict of Columbia, and, representing the
commissioners of the District, [ have
the honor of rendering you the freedom
OF the national capital. and in behalf
of the people of the District, from the
most exalted to the most humble citi-
zen, l give you a sincere and cordial
welcome home. We feel gratified that
Washington is TO be your future home.
1t is the best place in the world in
which to have a home. and it is fitting
that you, who have done so much for
the nation and have done such an i'm
portant part for the nation, should
make your future home in the nations
capital. The people of Washington will
esteem it not only a pleasure but an
honor to do all in their power to make
your stay with US as pleasant as your
services have been successful at Ma
nila.''
Admiral Dewey's reply was as brief
and characteristic as all of his other
speeches have been.
II want to thank you very much, nv
friends" he said, for this testimonial
of your regard. 1t is true that as long
as 1 ive-and I hope to live a long
time (cheers)-I intend to live in Wash
ington. 1 thank you again for this ex-
preston"
Then dropping the tone of formality
in which this had been uttered. he ex-
tended his hands and said heartily:
Now 1 want to see my friends. Char
lie, old boy, how are you?" and he
grasped c. c. Glover by the hand and
went through the party, shaking the
hands of all who were within reach.
In few minutes the train was in the
brilliantly lighted depot. The middle
aisle of the station had been carpeted
clear to the carriage entrance. The
committeeman and the fighting line
as the brilliantly uniformed officers
were termed, all alighted, while A. L.
Moses, the chairman of the reception
committee, Theodore Noyes of the
Evening Star, Commissioner Ross and
Archibald Greenlees went into the ad-
miraPs car and after a few words Of
formal greeting brought him out. TAX
ing the arm of Mr.. Moses, he headed
the procession down the station. while
the officers and committeeman fell in
at the rear. 1t was a procession as
brilliant as diplomatic reception. The
throng about the railway station
choked the streets for blocks above.

BILE of the departing train
Admiral Dewey was particularly
touched all along the line by the num-
Der of children who turned out to see
him. They formed a very large part
of the crowd in every town, and wher-
ever there was a schoolhouse the chill
dren had evidently been given a spe-
cial recess to come out and cheer the
train. There was another large crowd
of children at Baltimore, and Admiral
Dewey, who had come to the rear
platform for the sixth or seventh time
on the trip, said to the trainmaster,
who was standing by him, that he felt
more touched and complimented by the
attention Of the children than by al
most any other thing that had hap
pened since his return to America.
All along the line every train, freight
and passenger, that passed the special
saluted it with a long drawn blast of
the whistle, and in all the large towns
where the flyer slowed down within the
city limits there was continual roar
of steam from factories, machine shops
and the shifting engines and trains or
the sidings. Every engineer seemed to
have been bottling up steam for an
hour in advance and hung out of his
cab window with his hand on the
whistle cord while the fireman, hang
ing to the hand rails and running
board, swung the bell as though ring
ing for a crossing. Chester and Will
mington, seemed to have come down to
the depots en- masse, and the train ran
slowly between wide lanes of people
from one end of the town to the other.
while every lamppost, awning pole and
shade tree bore crop of young Ameri-
cans, and the roofs of freight cars on
the siding were converted into grand
stands for the brief instant that the
train swept by. The admiral responded
good naturedly to all these calls on his
stock of strength that he had been re-
serving for the trying ordeal in Wash
ington, and came time and again to
the platform to bow as the train went
by.
The train as it reached the line of the
District of Columbia stopped for a few
minutes at the little station of Dean
wood, while the reception committee
went through the formality Of present.

message of the President directing
Dewey, then thousands of miles away
in the Far East, to go forth to destroy
the Spanish fleet, and the other setting
out the famous admiraIs direction to
the lamented Gridley, You may fire
when you are ready, Gridley." which
marked an epoch in the history of the
United States. Twelve thousand mem
bers of civic organizations paraded be-
fore him. besides tens of thousands of
on-organized citizens. and in roar of
cannon rockets and the blaze of red fire
and the thunderous cheering of the
populace and the warm greeting of the
head of the nation Dewey came to the
national capital and TO welcome such
as has not been known here hitherto.
His journey from New York had been
one continuous ovation, limited in its
intensity only by the density of popu-
lation The decorated special train
which left the Pennsylvania Railroad
ferry slip in Jersey City at 1:50 O'Clock
in the afternoon was fully in keeping
with it's distinguished passenger. 1t
was made up of five cars, the Penn
sylvania's prize special, the Atalanta,
a dining-car, a combination smoker
and three parlor cars for the accom-
mediation of the Washington reception
committee The special was given
clear track and the run to Washington
was made without stop except at
Grays Ferry, on the outskirts of Phil
adelphia, where engines were changed
and a new train crew came aboard.
Almost Immediately after going aboard
the train the admiral retired to his
private car for luncheon, which was
served for six-Admiral Dewey, his son
George. his brother and wife, Captain
I,amberton and Lieutenant Brumby.
Thereafter the admiral lay down and
tried to get little sleep. but this was
impossible owing to the continuous
ovation along the line.
1t was said by the railroad officials
and trainmen that the ovation during
the run from New York to Washington
was the most remarkable demonstra-
ton that has ever taken place along
the line. Every town turned out it's
full population and every house and
crossroads settlement was turned in
side out to see the flying special pass
1t had been the intention of the we'll
meaning committee to notify all towns
along the route at what hour the spe-
cial might be expected, but the train
dispatcher at Jersey City headed them
off and offered hasty protest, saying
that it was next to impossible to get
the special out of town and that notice
in advance would probably block the
tracks. Apparently, however, the rail-
road telegraph operators had passed
the tip along and the crowds were on
hand as though they had been sent for.
A bare stop was made at Princeton,
where young Dewey had been stu
dent, and the admiral went to the plat
form for minute, merely saying to
the boys that he was pleased with the
reception they had given him. 1t was
such a reception as an Emperor might
have envied every student of the col
lage town being in evidence as well as

causing any unpleasant episodes, such
as marked the last effort to win the
cup, Sir Thomas has already intimated
that he may challenge again if the Co
lumbia should prove TO be faster than
the Shamrock. He is not sure but that
he will have to do so, if he means TO
capture the cup, for in an event Of this
sort nothing can be sure. He is conf
dent, however. that he has the fastest
yacht that has ever challenged for the
cup. Oliver Iselin, on the other hand,
is equally certain that the Columbia is
the fastest craft that was ever built
to defend ii. Certain it is that the new
cup defender has beaten the old De-
fender in every race in which the two
have met. and TO outstrip the Valkyrie

the Shamrock is a good boat, but

on tuning up and trial spins, and

Americans are so accustomed to
winning yacht races you don't

You had better get another view,
though, or you may have to pay a
visit to Ireland to take another
look at it. Designer Herreshoff
is a great man and has succeed

speedy yachts. 1 have spent
money freely to get a boat that
would be the fastest af1oat. Real
izing these things, the smartest
men of the nautical craft in Great
Britain have lent their aid. To-

SIR THOMAS Upton.
The San Francisco call., 1899-10-03

1nasmuch as we are of the opinion that
the America s cup races are no less a test
OF strength of construction of competing
vessels than of their sailing qualities, and
1t is deemed advisable to avoid the en-
barrassment in which vessel finds itself
when called upon 10 decide whether to
withdraw from a race upon the occur
renee of an accident disabling her COM
petitor il is agreed that in the races be-
tween the Shamrock and the Columbia
each yacht shall stand by the conse-
quences of any accident happening to her,
and that the uninjured vessel shall sail
out the race.
SIR THOMAS Upton,
c. OLIVER ISELIN.
1t is conceded that weather condi-
tions Will be an important factor in the
race, as all who have followed the per
formance of the two yachts believe that
the Shamrock is much more dangerous
in a good stiff wind than she is in a
light one. If weather experts prove
right the Shamrock will have wind of
her own choosing to- morrow. Wind
fresh to brisk is the Washington fore
cast, and therein seems another case of
Upton luck
Fifteen miles to windward and re-
turn, or a fifteen-mile run out and a
beat back, according to the direction
of the wind, will comprise to-morrow's
race. If the wind be off shore the
yachts will go before "end on" to the
outer mark and then beat back to the
finish. If the wind be from the oppo-
site direction the racers will beat out
and run back.
The start will be made from Sandy
Hook Hghtship at as near II a. m. as
practicable. the preparatory signal
being given fifteen minutes in advance
But always with the understanding
that should the wind prevent the lay
ing of the course from the lightship the
starting line will be shifted to the
nearest available point, and that in this
case the preparatory signal will be
given about half an hour before the
time set for starting from the light
ship.
The courses will be as follows:
No. From the starting line to and
around a mark fifteen miles to wind
ward or leeward, and return, leaving
the mark on the starboard hand.
No. 2.-From the starting line ten
miles to and around a mark. ten miles
to and around a second mark, and ten
miles to finish line, leaving the marks
on the outside of the triangle, to port
or starboard, according as the vessels
are sent around.
The starting and finish lines will be
between point on the committee boat
indicated by white flag and the main
mast Of the lightship. or other stake
boat if the start is shifted from the
lightship. These lines will be at right
angles with the outward and home
courses respectively.
The goal, or turning point (outer
mark), which each yacht will strive to
reach and round before the other, is
