Movements of Suspect Traced by De-

 NEW YORK, May 13.-Important advances have been made toward a solution of the Umbria mystery.
 Close upon the trail of the miscreant who for some unknown motive ship ped to the Cunard pier a hundred pounds of dynamite, detectives last night learned that the internal ma chine was sent from the Currie House, 366 West Thirty first street, last Thurs day.
 1t was sent to the Cunard pier by a man known as c. Rosseau. who had engaged a room and board on Thurs day, paying one weeks room rent in advance.
 He brought the machine in a large trunk, and the trunk and some of his clothing are there now. He remained at the Currie House until after break fast last Saturday and left after writ ing letter. He went away from the house early and presumably mailed a letter at the post office, which is be- lieyed to be the note of warning ad- dressed to Commissioner Greene and received at headquarters in time to To- cate the chest of explosives before the Umbria sailed.

 It is rumored that George Acker- mann, who severed his partnership with Charles White some time ago, has gone to live with his daughter in Wa terbury.

 SAN FRANCISCO, May 13.-Hear- Tier greeting was never given presi- dent of the United States than that of fered by the city of San Francisco to Theodore Roosevelt Through miles and miles of densely packed, cheering, periodically enthused humanity the nations chief passed, lowing his ac- Acknowledgements, evidently wearied by maintaining an erect position in his carriage, but buoyed up by the impress iveness of the demonstration. It was a magnificent ovation.
 The presidential train, drawn by a handsomely decorated locomotive, ar rived promptly on time. A large gath ering of federal, state and city officials. army and navy officers, foreign consuls and distinguished. citizens was in wait ing to welcome the chief magistrate.
 Mayor Schmitz stepped aboard the rear car and formally greeted MT. Roosevelt, the president making a brief response. ..-s
 Before entering bis carriage MT. Roosevelt stepped up to the locomotive and warmly shook hands with Engi- neer McGrail and Fireman Everly, who had piloted him safely from the south. In the parade the line was headed by a troop of colored cavalry, this being the first instance in the west where negro soldiers have held the position of honor in a public pro- cession. Following the president came United States troops from the local rnf~ ships in the harbor and at Mare island and regiments of the state militia.
 After reviewing the parade the presi dent was escorted to the Y. M. 0. A. building, where a throng had assem- bled to participate in the burning of mortgages and notes representing the total indebtedness of $115, ,2S0 upon the property. The president by request touched lighted match to the docu- ments, and as the flames licked up the papers he joined with the assemblage in singing "The Doxology." The presi- dent then made short address.
 The president was banQueted at night at the Palace hotel by the citizens com mittee. Immediately back of MT. Roosevelt's chair was draped a presi- dential flag. To the right of Chairman M. H. De Young sat the president, Gov ernor Pardee, Secretary Loeb, British Admiral Bickford, pr. Rixey, Admiral Kempff and Dr. Butler. On the left were Secretary Moody, Mayor Schmitz, Senator Perkins, Assistant Secretary Barnes, General MacArthur and Dr. Wheeler.
 One of the features of the decorations was an immense garland made entirely of California fruits and swung on the south wall of the room. Stretching from one end of the hall to the other was string of electric lights spelling Land of Sunshine, Fruit and Powers Welcomes President Roosevelt"
