A GFT FROM TRE NATION: Admiral Dewey Presented With the Handsome Sword for Wich Con- gress Voted $10,000. IMPRESSIVE SCENES AT THE CAPITAL, At Ten O'Clock Admiral Dewey Was Taken to the White House and from There, Seated With the President, Led a Tri- ‘umphal Procession Through the Streets, Cheered by Admiring Thousands. Washington, Oct. 2—The nation’s supreme homage to Dewey, its incom- parable hero, was given to-day with almost unprecedented enthusiasm. The fourth war president of the United States with official associates, sup- ported by the governors of a dozen states and the populace of the national capital gathered from every community of the union, have acclaimed their pride and affection for the chief mili- tary hero of the republic since Washing- ton and Grant. The start from Mrs. McLean’s resi- dence was made promptly at ten o'clock. When the admiral appeared, resplendent in heavy epaulettes and gold lace, the great throng that had assembled in the adjacent streets and in Farragut square broke out intoa Jong and loud burst of applause. Ac- companied by an escort of police and committeemen and headed by the ma- rine band the admiral was driven to the white house through cheering erowds. His progress was slow and he repeatedly bowed and smiled his ac- knowledgment of the greetings given bim. He entered the white house grounds by the west gate, and on reaching the portico Admiral Dewey quickly alight- ed and was shown into the white room, where he was met by the president and members of the cabinet. Only a few minutes elapsed before the admiral re- appeared with the president and took seats in the white house carriage. The members of the cabinet occupied the next three carriages, Former Secretary Alger sitting with Secretary Long, and then followed the various officials who had been assigned places near the central figure. At the head of the line rode Maj. Gen. Nelson A. Miles, commanding general of the army, in the full uni- form of his rank, with the yellow field marshal’s sash from shoulder to hip. He was astride a superb gray horse, richly caparisoned. Back of him was rank after rank of military aides, all officers of high rank. The @illiant- coated Marine band added color and inspiring music to the gay scene and following them came every kind of soldier, sailor and marine, mounted and afoot, infantry, artillery, cavalry, the marines in their short blouses and helmets, the jackies from the Raleigh and other warships, battery after bat- tery of light artillery, the eight-inch alege guns of the Seventy artillery each drawn by eight horses. And then Dewey! All that had gone before was buta brilliant prelude to the coming of the man of Manila riding with the presi- dent, on his way to the capitol, to re- ceive the nation’s tribute. They were in the president’s private carriage, seated on the rear seat, the president on the right. McKinley raised his hat only occasionally, leaving the admiral to acknowledge the plaudits of the multitude by lifting his chapeau. What an ovation! From end to end the avenue rang with deafening cheers and the banks of humanity took on life and motion, as flags and handkerchiefs were waved madly. Following the admiral came the officers and men of his flagship, the Olympia, in double ranks, stretching across the avenue, and then distin- guished officers of the navy and army. Glittering in the brilliant autumn sunshine the parade filled the mile of broad avenue from treasury to capitol with a swaying mass of color. Passing the peace monument it wound up the hill to the east front of the capitol. Like everything connected with Dewey’s record, he was early in arriv- ing at the capitol, being half an hour ahead of time. The committeemen preceded the president and Admiral Dewey. The waiting crowd uncovered and the president and the admiral promptly did the same as they passed rapidly into the lobby of the senate. Dewey was followed by his war cap- tains, and the full cabinet acted as an escort. The band struck into the soul-moving strains of “Hail to the Chief,”’ as the procession moved slowly down the steps to the stand. The crowd cheered long as the party took their seats, Ad- miral Dewey raising with bare head to respond to the ovation. Prayer was, offered by Rev. Dr. Bristol, President McKinley’s pastor. Secretary Long was then introduced. He recounted the history-making bat- tleof Manila bay and then read the aet of congress authorizing the pur- chase and presentation of a ‘‘sword of honor to Commodore George Dewey” and continued: It is my good fortune, under the terms of the enactment of congress, to have the honor of presenting to you this beautiful sword. If dur- img the coming years, which I trust will be yours, it shall remain sheathed in peace, as God grant it may, that fact will perhaps add more than anything else to the thoroughness with which it has done its work. Now, following the authorization of congress, I present this sword of honor which I hold in my hand—my hand—rather let it go to you Ubrough the hand of one who in his youth also periled his life and fought for his country in battle, and who to-day is the commander-in- chief of all our armies and navies, the president of the United States. As Secretary Long concluded he passed the sword to President McKin- ley. The latter rose and faced the ad- miral. Dewey was visibly affected and brushed his gloved hands across his eyes before standing atattention. The president said: Admire!
