Woodville Republican. (Woodville, Miss.) 185?-current, 1902-03-01

Hohenzolle-n gave lusty cheer, and
the prince smiled and saluted again.
The Kron Prinz was abreast of the
pier at noon and was quickly warped
into her berth, but there was some
delay in getting gangplank ar
ranged.
There was no demonstration at
Recreation Pier, for the prince was
not seen by the great crowd that
choked up the end of West Thirty
fourth street. Cavalry squadron A
Of the National Guard of New York
and a heavy force of police kept the
pier clear. Prince Henry disem-
barked at 1856 p. M, at that moment
walking down the decorated gangway
from the Kron Prinz Welheim into
the acknowledgements pier. He
then passed through an ornamental
gangway and arch to the gangplanls
of the Hohenzollern, which had been
decorated in the German colors and
was covered its entire length. The
prince was met at the bottom of the
gangplank by Admiral Won Baudissin,
commander of the Hohenzollern, and
his officers. Meanwhile the band from
the Kron Prinz Wilhelm was playing
The German national air. Taking the
precedence due to his rank, Prince
Henry walked up the gangplank, fol-
lowed by the officers of the Hohen-
zollern.
The first of his callers to arrive af-
ter he had boarded the Hohenzollern
was Gen. Brooke, U. S. A., accom-
panied by two aides. Admiral Barker
and his aide, Capt. West, representing
the United States navy, followed, and
then came the German ambassador
at Washington, and his brilliantly-at-
tired suite of military and naval at
taches and secretaries, and the mill
itary attaches of the German embas-
sy at Mexico, Lieut.. Bartels. Follow
ing the German ambassador came the
special representation of the presi-
dent of the United States, headed by
DR.. Hill, first assistant secretary of
state, and including Gen. Corbin, Col.
Bingham and Commander Cowles, the
brother-in-law of the president.
Capt. Nathan Sargent then called
on the prince as the special represen-
tative of Admiral Dewey. The cap
tain said that he had been sent by the
admiral especially to express to the
prince the admiral's regret at not
being able to greet him personally
and to pay his respects. The list of
callers was ended with the mayors
party, which included himself and his
private secretary. The German con-
sui general at New York and his suite
formed a part of the German ambas-
sador's party.
About an hour was spent by the
prince in receiving his callers and in
making an admiral inspection of the
troops and crew of the Hohenzollern.
Then followed a lunch. The prince
invited to this luncheon those Amer
leans among his callers who repre-
sented the navy, and besides there
were at the board the members of
the princes suite and members of
the German embassy at Washington.
On Prince Henry's right sat Capt.
Converse of the Illinois, and the 9TH
er Americans present at the luncheon
were Lieut.. Chaplin and Ensign Evans,
son of Admiral Evans. The luncheon,
which was informal, was finished
about three o'clock, and then the
prince announced to his guests that
he would repay this afternoon all his
official visits. He told Admiral Evans
he would be glad to see the latest
built battleship of the American
navy.
The prince boarded the tug Nina at
2:30 p. m. to repay his calls. He was
accompanied by one aide and Admiral
Evans and Ensigns Evans and Chaplin.
He visited the navy yard first, called
on Admiral Barker, and then Cover
nor's Island, where he called on Gen.
Brooke.
From Governors Island the tug pro-
ceeded to the battleship Illinois,
where he called on Admiral Evans
l1d inspected the ship. He was re-
ceived by the squadron with the hon
DIS due to his rank. From the Illinois
The prince returned to the pier at
street and went on
board the Hohenzollern for dinner.
