PRESIDENT IN BROOKLYN.
Delivers Stirring Address at Unveil-
ing of the Gen. Slocum
Statue

New York, May 31-In a stirring adj
dress delivered at the unyeiling of
big statute of Gen. Henry n Slocum in
Brooklyn Tuesday President Roosevelt
paid q splendid tribute to the men who
composed the northern armies. but did
not forget those of the southern hosts.
Most notable in his speech was an ex-
preston of his hope that as the nation
increased in strength there would
come corresponding increase in its
sense of responsibility which should
prevent its people from either injuring
or insulting other people, and his dec
laration that the surest way for a ma
tion to invite disaster is to be opulent,
aggressive and unarmed Significant,
in the light of recent events, was his
assertion that.
IF our navy is good enough we have
a long career of peace and prosperity
DeTore us, and the only ilKenn0ou on
trouble ever coming to us as a nation
will arise if we let our navy become
too small or inefficient. A first-class
navy, first-class in point Of size, above
all first-class in point of efficiency, and
the individual unit as units in combi-
nation, is the surest and cheapest
guarantee of peace. | should think
that any man looking at what is hap
in our own history during the past few
years. must indeed be blinded if he
cannot read that lesson clearly

lie at anchor here in the curying harbor
Of Golden Horn, they having separated
from the feet in the early stage of the

Saturday and headed, in obedience to
orders. with full speed to Vladiyostok.
Up to four o'clock Tuesday afternoon no
other vessels of the Baltic feet had yet

officers of the Almaz and Grozny say
that both fleets had already sustained
terrible losses when the Almaz and
Grozny broke through the hostile line.
OF the Japanese two battleships had
gone down before their eyes and two
cruisers, their sterns high out of the
water seemed ready to plunge foremost
to the bottom of the sea.
The Russian fleet, they say was even
in a sadder plight. Rojestvensky's flag
ship, the Kniaz Souvaroff, and her sister
ship. the Borodino and the cruisers Os-

discourages the Washington govern

positive steps toward Offering assist

an understanding. 1t is believed here,
however, that when Russia, through
her agents, has learned the full extent
of her losses she may be approached
regarding peace with some hope that
overtures will be welcomed. 1t is such
an opportunity for which this govern
ment is watching. 1t is realized that
the crushing character of the Russian
defeat gives to the president an oppor
tunity with entire propriety to offer
his services to the st. Petersburg gov
eminent in establishing communica-
