American troops from overseas. The
more than 1000 men. mostly nom

on Long Island during the day. De-

Heavy storms delayed the giant

was expected, and it was not until
o'clock last night that the liner enter
ed the narrows. to late to pass quaran-
tine. She anchored for the night in
Gravesend bay in sight Of the lighted
Statue of Liberty.
Delay Causes Disappointment.
The steamers belated arrival caused
a change in the plans for welcoming
the soldiers and many thousands who
had crowded Battery Park all the
afternoon and who had motored to
Camp Mills were disappointed. The
mayors committee of welcome went
down the bay on police department
boat and officially entered a welcome

When the big liner left Gravesend
hay for her North river pier Mavor
Hylan and his party were aboard. The
mayor announced that Secretary of
War Baker had denied his request
that the troops parade in New York
before going to camp.
A tremendous chorus of whistles
from every manner of craft broke
loose as the Mauretania steamed
slowly up the harbor. The liner was
gay with a multitude of flags. Her
rails were lined with cheering, ges-
ticulating soldiers.
