Sailor of Pacific Squadron Denied Ad-

 Tacoma. Wash, Aug. 11.--A sailor of the Pacific Squadron having been refused admission to the dancing acad- emy'' here. Rear Admiral Goodrich wrote as follows to the Mayor of Ta- coma:
 "on July 21 petty officer of one of the ships of the Pacific Squadron was refused admittance to the public ball given at the Old Elks' Hall, for the sole reason that the wore the uni- form of the American Navy. The man was sober and we'll behaved know him to be of excellent character and in every way entirely responsible
 "The United States ship Chicago came to your city and, by your invitation, shared in it's celebration of independ- ence day. I trust this celebration on it's part embodied it's sentiments of pa- triotism and of appreciation for those who have undertaken to fight their country's battles. but in view of this piece of unwarranted snobbishness, am forced to entertain lively suspi- cion.
 Unless Tacoma desires to serve mo- tice on the navy that it's visits there are unwelcome, 1t behooves you. Mir. Mayor and other broad minded citi- zens to bring the offenders in this case to sharp and public account"

Popular enthusiasm is great and the visitors are being greet ed everywhere by cheering crowds
 At the government house banquet, MT Root was welcomed in a speech by Minister of Foreign Affairs Romeu, who expressed the confident belief that the visit of the American Secretary would mutually benefit the relations between the two countries.
 In replying MT. Root said:
 Tt is most gratifying to hear from the lips of one of the masters of South American diplomacy--one who knows the reality of International policies so just an estimate of the attitude of my own country toward her South American sisters.
 The great declaration of Monroe. made in the infancy of Latin American liberty, was an assertion to all the world of the competency of Latin Amer jeans to govern themselves and their countries That assertion. my country mas diWdyS Htdll tdtiASu e1iau my Pt SSSA ? here is in part for the purpose of giy- ing evidence of her belief in the truth of the assertion.

and our laws think 1t may safely be said that those nations which planted their feeble colonies on these shores and from which have spread so widely have profited far more from the independence of the American re- publics than they would have profited if their unwise ssytem of colonial gov ernment had been continued. In the establishment of these free and tnde- pendent nations Of this continent. they have obtained a profitable outlet for their trade employment for their com merce. food for their people and refuge for their poor and their surplus pop ulation.
 we have done more than that; we have tried here their experiments in government for them. The reflex ac- tion of American experiments in gov- ernment has been felt in every coun-y try in Europe. without exception and has been far more effective in it's fn- fiuence than any good quality of the old colonial system could have been; and our prosperity but adds to their prosperity, intercourse in trade and exchange of thought In learning, in literature, in art, all add to their pow ars and their prosperity; their intel Iectual activity and their commercial strength We still draw from their stores of wealth commercially, intel lectually and physically and we are beginning to return and in rich meas-' ure. with interest, that we have got from them. We have learned that na- tional agrrandizement and national prosperity are to be gained rather by national friendship rather than by na- tional violence.
 s-The friendship for your country, that we from the North have. Is a friendship that springs from desire to promote the common welfare of mankind by advancing the rule of orr der, of justice, of humanity and of the Christianity which makes for the pros perity and happiness of ali mankind.
 ''It Is not as messenger of strife that I come to you, but I am here as tho advocate of universal friendship and peace"
