PRAISES AMERICAN NAVY
Baron von Sternberg Grows Enthus-
 iastic at a Yachting Banquet


 Hartford, Conn. n.-Baron Speck von Sternberg, the envoy of Germany to this country, was the guest of honor Friday evening at the annual banquet of the Hartford Yacht club, and the distinguished visitor was accorded a royal greeting. He responded to the toast, "German Nation and Its Elm peror, the Modest Yachtsman of the World" and his remarks were heartily received.
 Governor Chamberlain and other state officers were in attendance and they complimented the envoy, eulo- gized his country and joined in drink ing a toast to the kaiser.
 In the course sof response Baron Sternberg said: "It is keen rivalry which produces great men and great races, and which has given the people of the United States and of Germany so much in common. The days are no more when the barbarian forged his blade to conquer and loot. Now we find our armies and navies turned into greatstraining schools, in which we teach our sons those qualities which they need more than ever, just as much in the struggles of peace as in the struggles of war, and without which commercial and industrial never can be attained. Above all it is the love of the sea and its dangers which breed virile race, the department which your institutions and ours are constantly fostering.S
 "No one understands this better than the German emperor did when he began to add powerful navy to his already powerful army. It was you to whom he looked when he felt the need of craft which only America's genius would be able to create, craft to improve the skill of his crews and to spread the love of the sea among his people.
 "Your words of praise for the Ger man army and navy 1 heartily recip- rocate. The navy of the United States now commands the admiration of the its fighters and writers, its and the personality of its crews which have emphasized Amer ica's position as great world power.
 "I repeat what you have said: l hope that the relations between our two great nations may grow closer and sriendlier. We ask for what you ask lair play and good will. Rivalry we need, rivalry we want. But let us nope that in all our future commer- ,ial and industrial contests the same ove of fair play and justice may pre- 7ail which so far has characterized our dealings and which has found such 'trong and keen contrast between the of America and Great Britain for the coveted trophy, the America's cup.
 ''To emphasize slightly the toast given in honor of my emperor and of ny country, raise my glass to Re publican America, a virile nation, ,reat and strong on land and sea, whose rapidly growing and powerful lavy, like its gallent army, commands UT respect; a nation at whose head lands one of the worlds greatest ulers.

Collapse of Revolution

Caracas-General Ignacio Andrade, the former president of Venezuela, telegraphed to President Castro few days ago, asking the latter for au- thorization with guarantee of safety to return to Venezuela with his fam fly, assuring the president that he would be loyal to the latter and en- deavor to assist him in preserving peace. President Castro replied that General Andfade would be welcomed. The request of General Andrade, it is pointed out here, is another indica- tion of the collapse of the Matos revo- lution.
