WELCOMES HIN
Escorted by Hundreds of Gaiy Decorated River
Craft President Roosevelt Makes Triumphal
Entry Into Great City on the Mississippi
Vast Mnltitudes Greet Him---In Notable
Speech He Talks of Improving the Water
Ways and Controlling the Corporations---On
to Memphis.

OF a score OF states. The notillo is
scheduled TO reach Cairo. Ill. at 8
O'Clock tomorrow morning, when the
president will make an address. At
II O'Clock the trip to Memphis will
will be continued. anj the Tennessee
metropolis will be reached Friday
afternoon.
The speech of the president was a
mastery effort and brought repeated
rounds OF applause. Prior to the ad-
dress, Mayor Rolla Wells introduced
Governor Folk, who made brief
address of welcome to the president.
The speechmaking was followed by
luncheon at the jefferson hotel in
honor of the president and other dis
tinguished guests, given by the St.
Louis Business Mems league.
The first part of President Roose-
velts address was devoted to dis
cussion of the great water ways of
the country and he again declared
his desire to see the mighty national
water highways improved and he de-
clared that he wanted to see traffic
on the Mississippi not only get back
to its old greatness, but to grow to
even vaster extents than 1t reached
years ago when railroads were few
and far between and the Father of
Waters was the mightiest route OF
travel on the continent.
The president took occasion to
make quite n lengthy reference to
the navy, its efficiency and it's
growth.
The latter part of his address was
devoted to his ideas on the proper
supervision and control of the cor
porations. He declared his belief
that the national government should
guard at every turn the interest of
the people and properly regulate the
great corporations. He made n plea
that the constitutional power which
already exists shall be applied to
new conditions which did not exist
when the constitution went into be-
ing.
Mr.. Roosevelt believes that there
should be national legislation to con
troll all Industrial corporations doing
an Interstate business. He was es-
pecially positive about the control
of railroads.

an intcrminablc line of every variety
of river craft. Every available steam
boat, tug, launch, sailboat, rowboat
and raft that could be bought, rented,
borrowed or stolen for the day wns
pressed into service, presenting IA
scene of activity such as never before
been witnessed on the Mississippi.
Every boat provided with whistle
made use of IL to the fullest extent
when the presidents boat appeared
in sight. Despite the enthusiasm of
the welcome to the chief executive,
the great object of che dcmonstrn-
tion was not forgotten, and every
vessel carried an immense banner
with the words: "Fourtccn feet
through the valley" while great
chorus sang dig Her Deep Through
Dixie"
Thorough precautions were taken
for the safety of the president during
his stay in st. Louis. In addition to
the usual detail of secret service men
who accompany President Roosevelt
on all his travels. dozen cavalry
men, uLder command of Colonel
Evans of Jefferson barracks, acted
as body guard on the trip from the
river landing to the Jai Alai build
ing. where the president made his
address. Dozens of mounted police
also followed the carriage. constant
ly on the watch for suspicious char
acters.
After reviewing the great naval pa
geant assembled in his honor. the
president resumed his trip down the
Mississippi this afternoon. Accom-
paning the Mississippi, carrying the
president and his party, was the
Mackenzie. having on board the in

steamer Alton, bearing the governors
