 MeesaGe from the Kaiser.

Oyster Bay. N. Y.' Sept. l4'-Pres'- dent Roosevelt placed himself on rec ord today as an enthusiastic supporter of amateur sports. He also took oc- casion to weld new link of friend ship between tho United States and Germany, doing this by making the official presentation Of the HooseVeit cup to the American Yacht Club, the trophy which was won by the yacht Vim of that club, during the recent international races of Marblehead. Mass, in which several German boats competed unsuccessfully.
 The presentation was made on board the Presidents flagship. the MayfIower. after which an elaborate luncheon was served.
 dent said that he wished to give his most hearty endorsement to amateur sports of all kinds.
 The President commended the sports manship of the Germans. They had, he said, demonstrated that they could with stand the supreme test of sportsmen- they could lose gracefully While tho President congratulated the winning club most heartily, he said there Yas a note of regret in his endorsement be- cause the Germans had lost
 Speaking most seriously, the Presi- dent said there was a side to the racei just run which meant far more to thu German and American nations that th' winning of the cup; that the sportsman ship of two nations was being develop ed, fraternal feeling which was mos desirable for the welfare of both coun tries
 When luncheon was served PresI- dent Roosevelt proposed a toast tc the Emperor of Germany This wai responded to later by Captain Hib. binghaus, one of the German repre-. sentatives. in a toast to the President of the United States.
 The German captain took occasion to voice the cordial feeling he ana his fellow yachtsmen felt for Ameri' can amateur sportsman. He sad i' had really been a pleasure to lose. fl that was to be their fate, to so fail representatives of the sport
 The toast concluded with three rousing cheers for the President
 After the luncheon, Captain Wietz mann. of the German Yacht Club. de livered to the President personal mes sages he bore from Emperor William and from his brother, Prince Henry of Prussia These messages were no made public.
