Sydney, Aug. 19.-Early this morn signalled to the watchers on the coast the approach of the American warships and at 5:35 a. m. official notifications were sent out that the fleet had been sighted. It was twenty miles outside of sydney harbor, when the word which has been awaited eagerly by tens of thousands, stirred the Australians like a call to arms. Ts1se who have not left the city to take up points of van tage along the bays, moved in droves and lined the quays, the roof tops and other places on the harbor front to watch the coming ships from the new world.
 So great was the interest that half the popUlace remained up half the night and thousands before night. were on their way to the hill tops out side of the city. where they conSregat- ed seemingly in an unbroken line along the coast from Bond Beach to Manly.
 It is estimated that hardly less than half million people assembled to give the visitors a royal welcome The harbor with its innumberable bays and capes never looked more beautiful nor did the American sailors ever witness a more inspiring sight than that which met their eyes as the white ships came through the channel past the great headland into Port Jackson. A hundred thousand people. the greatest single assemblage of all, gathered on the South Heads where a magnificent view of the ships was obtained. Hun
