Hats off to the navy!
President Roosevelt reviewed

from giant battleships to SLIM
speedy destroyers-in a mghty
spectacle yesterday. went through
with machine-like precision.
Except for a delay caused by
fog nothing married the perfection
of arrangements made by the men
in navy blue for their commander
in-chief and for the nation.
"Well done" Mr.. Roosevelt
messaged the captains from his
flagship, the Indianapolis, at con-
clusion of the giant spectacle.
well done" messaged Admir-
al David F. Sellers. "Well done,
under adverse conditions"
The review began officially at
EOS p. M, eastern standard time.
1t was the greatest American
naval spectacle of modern times.
In contrast to most naval re-
views, where ships of the fleet are
drawn up in formation to be re.
viewed by the commander-in-chief
who passes in his flagship, the
spectacle yesterday was march
past"
The Indianapolis rode at anchor
while the great gray ships--more
than 100000 tons of flinty fight
ing steel-plowed by in a majestic
spectacle of sea-power.
The bow of the last ship cut
the waves past the Indianapolis at
1897 p. m.
The fleet loafed up from the
south this morning after weeks of
cruising and war games in south
ern waters.
A pallid haze obscured the hori-
zon making the review two and a
half hours late getting under way.
Forty thousand officers and
men chafed at their posts in the
Sc vessels. Crews of $50 naval
planes polished metal work al
ready spotless.
President Roosevelt, aboard the
Indianapolis, waited patiently. He
was certain that a burning sun,
which baked pavements of New
York before midday, would dispel
the fog. 1t did. And shortly after
2 p. m. all was ready.
The Indianapolis was anchored
some two miles south of Ambrose
lightship. The fleet was off shore
in a massive 12-mile line.
BY 1870 signals sent for the
great vessels to begin their pas
sage before the chief. $3.50"
First in the line. moving smooth
ly through the sun-splashed waves,
was the mighty Pennsylvania, 49,

which the navy paid some $780,
100000. She flew the four-star.
red banner of Admiral David F.
Sellers.
AS the great battleship swung
into position, gun crews tense in
their turrets, quick orders went tc
turret captains and a deafenine
salvo of Fl huge rifles shattered
the air-the presidential. salute.
On the Indianapolis officer!
and men, lined against a FURNISH

President Roosevelt was visibly

Sum to Be Used for l0A Improvements Railroad Plans SS,SOO, ,OOO-No Big Construction Projects

manufactured gas business have plans for 1e3& which will call for exppnditure of about s1ss.ooo. The New Haven Gas Light company will spend ele0.00O of which about eS0.0O0 will be for improvement on it's plant, 9eg,000 for distribu- ton system betterTnents, and the balance will be for transportation equipment, ofiice building improve nlents and minor items. The 0reen- wich Gas company will use approx imately e2E,000 for extensions of mains, meters, services and routine small capital expenditures.
 Water company expenditures may be more limited than usual probably due to the fact that many large and costly Improvements have been completed in recent years. The New Haven Water com. pany which ordinarily is among the leaders in expenditures for improvements is confining itself to absolutely necessary outlays, at least until after it's pending rate case is settled. The Greenwich Wa ter company is planning to spend S90,O00 for extension of transmis- sion and distribution mains, new meters and service, and a possible addition to . clear water basin at it's filtration plant.
 The amount of money which the Connecticut company may spend in 1884 is not definite and will de- pend largely on the amount of highway work undertaken by the state and municipalities, which itate some of its track and statu- tory pavement area. This work alone runs to a substantial figure each year,

government. Therefore, he said, he informed the federal officials that he will have to so out of Wa terbury against his own personal wishes to get supervisor for the public welfare department. He was told to do so in reply to his remonstrance. Therefore, an out-of-town, college-trained super visor will come into Waterbury, soon. to handle public welfare work.
 DOwney and Smith Safe
 Superintendent of Public Well fare Downey and Superintendent of Brookside Smith were reap pointed and were assured that they will continue in the service of the city despite the federal in- terference. This assurance was also given MT Hayden, who was present at the meeting. There will be nobody dropped from the pres- ent staff but. 1t was pointed out, new titles may have to be given the incumbents eventually, so as to comply with the federal reguia- tions and give the government the authority it demands.
 It was also pointed out at the meeting that at the most the three new appointees will cost the city will be $6,700. This Is, of course, If the highest salaries recommend cd are paid by the city. The low. est cost would be S5.S00.
 Good Investment
 Mayor Hayes explained that this would be Q good investment. rather than refuse the federal emergency relief commissions ti- nancial aid. To support this stand he quoted figures on the amount of money received so far from the emergency relief department.
 For the first quarter of 1888 the city received . check of $1s,S49.42 from the government as reim- bursement for Q part of the relief expenditures In Waterbury. For the second quarter" the check was S22,913.32. As the result of Q protest made to the effect that the city was not getting it's proper share of the emergency relief money, the city last Thursday re- ceived an additional check of $34,- 661.31. This makes total, 50 far. for 1888 of $77.424.05. The check for the thrid quarter is now being awaited and when 1t arrives 1t will boost the federal relief payments for 1888 up to the $100.000 mark. On top of that the city will re- ceive another check later for the final quarter of last year.
 It is better to spend six or seven thousand dollars and get over $100,000 from the federal govern ment, the mayor stated. The mem- bers of the board agreed with him and, therefore, adjourned promis- ing to give further time to study the plan and look over the appli- cations for the three positions now open.
