 Mir. Taft made the oration of the oe- casion and after the ceremonies lex for Washington where he VIII meet President Roosevelt tomorrow. The monument, plain shaft in the form ok a poric column surmounted by fun- eraI urn. stands on a steep knoll be- meath which lie inferred the bones oi l5,000 American prisoners who perish ed from fever and starvation in the rotten hulks of the Jersey and other English prison ships which lay in Wallabout Bay during the war of the revolution.
