LARGE NAVY THE BEST
 GUARANTEE OF PEACE
STIRRING ADDRESS IN BROOK
 LIN BY PRESIDENT.
Declares if the American Navy is Good Enough the Nation Has a Long Career of Peace and Prosperity Before It. Any Man Must be Blind if He Cannot See This in What Has Happened.

New York, May SO.-In stirring ad- dress delivered at the unveiling of big
 statue of General Henry W. Slocum in
 Brooklyn to-day President Roosevelt
 paid 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-
 pression of his hope that as the nation increased in strength there would come
 corresponding increase in its sense of responsibility which should prevent it's people from either injuring or insulting other people.
 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 before
 us, and the only likelihood of 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 in- diyidual unit as units in combination is the surast and cheapest guarantee of peace. I should think that any man looking at what is happening and has l happened abroad and in our own his tory during the past few years must in- deed be blind if he cannot read that les- son clearly" ....5.. The president was in New York city five hours but during that time did not I put his foot in Manhattan, passing around the island in ferryboat to the Brooklyn side of the East river and, after the exercises, returning in the
 same fashion. The entire trip was without unhappy incident.
