and from the Connecticut to the
kentucky, which brought up the
rear, the line reached a distance of
more than four miles. In space of
time there was the stretch of a decade
between the 10000 tons of the Con-
necttcut to the little more than 1000
of the Kentucky.
Five stages of American battleship
construction were represented in the
line and as an object lesson in the
growth of the American navy the
spectacle found one of its most strik-
ing features. A large number of
yachts and excursion boats accom-
panied the fleet down the bay and
gathered at the reviewing ground.
President Roosevelt's party on the
Mayhower, included Mrs. Roosevelt,
Miss Ethel Roosevelt, secretary Of the
navy and Mrs. Metcalf the assistant
secretary of the navy and Mrs. News
berry, Rear Admiral w. H. Brownson,
ch1ef of the. bureau of navigation and
Mrs. Brownson and Rear Admiral and
Mrs. Cowles, and Lieutenant Com
mander and Mrs. Sims.
The navy dispatch boat Dolphin
also came down from Washington
with party of congressman on board
to witness the review
Did Chores Early.
The day of departure broke fair
and cool, with an eight mile breeze
blowing from just little to the
south west and ruff1ing the waters of
the Roads into sparkling waves. At
the time of the presidents arrival the
brilliant sun had set the bright work
and polished decks dancing in it's
rays.
The immaculate white hulls of the
big fighting machines cleaned re-
splendently. Not a cloud f1ecked the
sky.
The early morning scene about the
fleet anchorage was most picturesque.
Long before daylight the tidy little
steam launches were making their
them blowing impatient whistles for
delayed mail or doilies who We're the
last persons to be taken aboard.
Mano' warsmen arose early. Five
o'clock found every deck of the 16
ships well filled with them.
They were busy with last chores of
scrubbing and polishing. Changing
at times from mastheads, ship COM
manders having some last instructions
to receive from the divisional flag
ships.
AS daylight came the ship lights
one by one until all were
gone. AS the sun rose, a great red
ball in the east, it seemed to hang for
a time in the gateway of the Virginia |
Capes, through which the fleet was
soon to pass, then mounted higher |
into the skies with the promised full
hllment of a perfect day.
At eight bells or o'clock in the |
watch, the dressing lines |
were broken out on every battleship |
and the pretty little triangular signal |
flags gave a gala touch to the scene.
Make Up of the Fleet.

LAST BANK OPENS.
All Those Carried Down by the Com
merce. Now Doing Business.

Kansas City, Dec. 16.-The Union
Avenue Bank of Commerce, which
was obliged to close by the suspension
of the National Bank of Commerce,
reopened for business this morning.
All the small banks carried down by
the National banks failure have now
been rehabilitated.
-Four government bank examiners
are working on the books of the Ma
tional Bank Of Commerce. and upon
their report will depend whether the
bank shall be reopened or liquidated.
George e. Cults of New York. one of
the examiners. will probably take
charge of the bank as receiver in a
few days succeeding James T. Bradley
of Kansas Checks on the suspended
bank are accepted at par by many
business houses and the financial
situation has been mitigated thereby.

ONLY TWO CLOSED.
Other Kansas City Theaters Were
Open Yesterday.

Kansas City, Mo-. Dec. 16.-Only
two theaters. the Willis Wood and the
Majestic, respected the Sunday clos
ing order of Judge William H. Wal
lace. The manager Of the Majestic
has notified Judge Wallace that the
Majestic will remain closed until the
legality of the Sunday closing move
ment is finally decided, and it is be-
lieved Klaw & Erlanger, who control
the Willis Wood. will no longer resist
the enforcement of the closing order.
All other theaters and amusement
parlors were open and deputy mar
shals again secured the names of all
alleged violators of the law. Judge
Wallace delivered an address from a
pulpit in which he scored the police
commissioners for refusing to instruct
the police to cooperate with him in
the Sunday closing movement.

FOUR RED HATS.
The Pope Creates New Cardinals at
Secret Consistory.

Rome, Dec. 16.-Pius x today held a
secret consistory in the vatican in which
he created four new cardinals and pre-
concised several bishops.
The new cardinals are: Monsigaor
Pfetro Gasparri, secretary of the con-
gregatton of extraordinary eccleSfasti-
cal affairs; Monsignor De Lai, secretary
OF the congregation of the council;
Monsignor Ludovico Henry march
bishop Of Rheims, and Monsignor Paul
Pierre Andrieu. archbishop of Mar
seillas.
The pope delivered an anocution in
which he made reference to the perse-
cutton of the redeemer and said that
his church had been attacked from all
sides in warfare open or dissimulated.
The rights and laws of the church had
safeguard them and the impious and
vulgar press had fought her to the ex-
tent of disturbing the public quiet. The
pontif cited the recent disorders in
Italy. To this must be added, he con-
tfnued, the disastrous propaganda in
the bosom of. Catholicism itself which
is being carried on by modernists who
disdafn the pontifical authority and de-
sire themselves authoritatively to
sanction a new faith and a new con-
science. If the modernists would en-
list themselves frankly among the enc
mics of the church this evil would be
less; as it is they proclaim themselves
Catholics, partake Of the sacrament and
celebrate mass. Fulfilling his apostolic
duty, the pope said, he had adopted
against the modernists such measures
as were necessary, striving particular
ly to save young clergymen from per-
version.
In conclusion, the allocution reads:
"Tne Epi scooacy has acc. the
papal directions with eagerness and has
applied them with zeal, but the lod
ernists persevere in their rebellion and
give manifest proof of their attitude
even in the press. May God enlighten
these miSled ones"
The pope made official announcement
during the consistory of the appoint
ment of Monsignor Kennedy, rector of
the American college here to be titular
bishop of Indianapolis and the appoints
ment of Monsignor Dennis O'Connell,
rector of the Catholic university at
Washington to be titular bishop Of
SebaSte.

HAD MONEY TO BURN.
John Gordon Burned $4,000 of 1t and
Died.

Chicago, Dec. 16.-A dispatch to the
Record-Herald from Marion, O., says:
John Gordon. farmer of this county
burned $4,000 in bills a short time be-
fore he died. Gordon was S5 years old
and in the last few weeks had grown
childish. He had steadfastly refused
to put the $4,000, the savings of years,
into bank, but kept the bills under
his pillow. Yesterday he amused him
self by setting fire to them and watch
ing them burn. He succumbed to heart
disease soon afterMard.

NOT FOR NORDICA.
She Refuses to Sing for Hammerstein
at Popular Prices.

New York, Dec. 16-Oscar Hammer
stein announced last night that at the
request of Nine. Nordica he had can
celed his contract with her and in the
future she would not be connected with
the Manhattan opera house. The with
drawal of Nine. Nordica, 1t is said, was
brought about by a request of Mr..
Hammerstein that she sing at a series
of operas at popular prices, which was
regarded by the singer as a move to
reduce her from her contract

The president received all the ad-
mirals and captains on board the
Mayf1ower, but made no speech. The
occasion, he felt did not require one,
as the setting out Of the fleet is re-
garded merely as a detail of naval
practice and training. But to the
pressed his unfeigned delight at the
showing made by the magnificent
fleet.
President Was Delighted.
Pacing the quarter deck, in his en-
thusiasm and smiling in characteristic
ly say: Did you ever see such a
fleet? And such a day. 1t ought to
make us all feel proud"
Admiral Evans was first over the
Mayfower's side. There was an ex-
change of formal salutes, then the
president grasped the admiraPs hand
and gave it a hearty shake.
Just before the admiral left the
Mayhower to give orders for the fleet
to get under way, the president called
him aside and the two were in earnest
for nearly five minutes,
during which the admiral's head was
dipping affirmative mods as though ac-
instructions.
During the reception the president
sent for Seaman William Chandler,
of the Louisiana's launch,
and told him to convey to the men of
the Louisiana his special greetings.
The louisiana is the ship on which the
President and Mrs. Roosevelt mado
their return trip from Isthmus of
Panama. The sailor was presented by
the president to Mrs. Roosevelt and
then after the embarrassed coxswain
had taken his leave, the president
said: st tell you our enlisted men are |
everything They are perfectly bully |
and they are always up to everything |
required of them"
Each departing admiral and captain |
was wished "the best of luck. old fell |
ow and goodby."
The fleet sailed from its anchorage
;hortly after 10 o'clock. There was |
lot the slightest hitch in any detail
IF the carefully planned programme.
As the Connecticut steamed past the
crowded government pier at Old
Point the band on the quarter deck
played 1.-THE Girl I Left Behind
Ne" and "Auld Lang Syne." There
we're great cheers from the shore and
lively screeching Of whistles from
he excursion fleet.
