Of ROOSEVELT

MARRIOTT, British East Africa,
June 7.-While summing up the
features of Colonel Roosevelt's
stay here, a prominent English
man today declared that the most
distinguishing characteristic of the
former president was his natural
leadership and his keenness for
entering into every detail of his
expedition.
While the colonel and his en-
tourage are tracking across the
hot sands of Sotik in caravan, his
praises are being sounded here by
his English hosts. He. attained
general popularity that disting-
uished him while leader of the
Rough Riders. He acquainted
. himself personally with his guides
and porters and by this action in
sured himself against accidents
which might mar his sport.
Roosevelt's praises as marks
man are being sung although the
colonel has never claimed that he
is an expert shot. His first day
IN the field was a success and
from that his reputation grew.

PORTLAND, June Admiral
Uriel Sebree. commander of the
Pacific coast fleet, who is here by
to attend a dinner with
Admiral Ijichi of the Japanese
navy tomorrow night at the Port
land hotel, is so strongly in favor
|of a larger navy that he declares
the construction of at least one
|battleship of the Dreadnaught type
should be started every year.
81 do not advocate an increased
navy because we are going to have
war with any nation" he said, "but
because there will never be a time
when the nations can stop making
their navies stronger. 1t would be
my plan to build for while three
or four Dreadnaughts every year,
but IL we can't do that, we should
|start one each year."
The admiral predicts that the
lohly war with Japan will be of a
commercial nature.
