Ox Boanp H. M. 8. “Brake,” Gravesexp Bay, New Your. April 25. After twenty-nine hours of ocean travel, with all things working favorably from beginning to end, the great flect that yesterday morning departed from Hampton Roads is now in New York waters ready for the naval parade which isto mark the opening of a Columbian cele- bratory period in which all civilized nations and several nations that are not civilized are Jubilantly to particrpate. With infinitely less voeiferons commotion than is common to the departure from ite whart of a Potomac river ferry boat the combined squadrons of England, France, Germany, Rus- | sia, Italy, Brazil, Holland and the United States weighed anchor and headed for the rift in the edge of the continent through which the waters of the Chesapeake bay flow to invisibly join that expanse of saline moisture generally re- ferred to as the Atlantic ocean. From the min- utes of early daylight little balls of parti- colored bunting bad been going aloft ‘THE BRITISH FLAGSEIP BLAKE. on the cruisers and when the proper altitude was reached breaking into combina- tions of multi-hued and voiceless expressions that was simply so much gibberish to the lands- men, but perfectly intelligible to those whose Profession calls for intimacy with the conver- sational methods that are available when dis- tance precludes the employment of lungs and other necessary adjuncts to successful articula- tion. Between ships and shore there was constant communication. Busy, puffy. wheezy steam launches as well as the more dignified if primitive rowboats moved rapidly over the breeze-ruffied surface of the harbor, most of them laden with fresh provis- ions for the present subsistence of many a jolly jack tar; officers who had remained ashore all night hastened to the wharf in search of needed transportation; the few guests who had been bidden to voyage northward were no less anxious to avoid tardiness. By 8 o'clock or thereabouts the last Senator was on the San Francisco's deck, but no one would have been too late had he delayed put- ting in an appearance for an hour later, for 9 was the time set when anchors were to be hauled from out the sand or ooze or whatever it is that intervenes to prevent the waters of the Chesapeake from leaking through into the earth's center. Bat 9 o'clock did not come for more than sixty minutes after I had evaded three or four excellent opportunities to get real wet while transferring myself anda small quantity of baggage from an Old Point sailboat to Her Majesty's Ship Blake, flagship of Rear Admiral Sir John 0. Hopkins, K. C. B., commander-in- chief of the British squadron now attracting so much attention in these waters. Two other ADMIRAL HOPKINS. searchers after unique information and experi- ences were with me—Mr. E. G. Dunnell, chief of the Washington bureau of the New York Times, and Mr. Julian Ralph of the New York Sun. We were guests of the admiral’s, and never were any men more fortunate as toa host than we. Had we been distinguished officials of the most exalted type the courtesies extended could not possitily have been more searchingly unos- tentatious. Correspondents who were per- mitted to voyage in vessele of the United States were given to understand thata favor was being done them, but those whom Admiral Hopkins invited could not but feel that they were guest in all that the term implies, Nothing was con- cealed from them nor was any portion of the cruiser shut out from their gaze. It was -their ship, and that no harm came to it while it was in their was a result due to the assiduous kindness of the officers and crew, all of whom insisted upon relieving the visitors of @ responsibility which would undoubtedly have been irksome. 5 THE stant. Breakfast in the exquisite and suficiently spacious mess room sacred to the admiral and his staff was followed by « turn on deck. The States contingent returned from ite trip of three or four miles up the roads, taken pre- Paratory to turning the keen white bows ses- ward. The marines were assembled on the nich diapason of a grand organ. Almost im- mediately after the conclusion of the brief re- ligious performed a feat possible to but few great ships of war. With one screw going ahead and the other in the opposite direction abe turned as on the Blake's port quarter, so the marines. again made an appearance on the poop. They were smarter than ever. Some—artillery marines— wore the dark bine, red and yellow uniform that adorns Great Britain's gunnery soldiers ‘the world over, but the majority were clad in scarlet coats and black trousers with narrow red stripes down the legs. All had white helmets on their heads, every chin was up, there was no speck on the pipeclayed belts nora ull spot on the brasses that assist so materially in the composition of a showy garb. How pleasingly strange 1t wps to hear “The Star Spangled Banner” played by tne band of a British warship, but that was the air which | burst out as the movement eastward began. | Succeeding it immediately came that interna- | tional and especially fitting eelection—“The Girl I Left Behind Me.” The girl, and there were several hundred of her, was on the wharf, | along the hotel front, on the balconies and | | Sbove the fort's water battery. A few of her, | | wearied by the protracted adieux of theevening before (or, to be precise, of the early morning), witnessed" the “departure from her bed | room. Many of the officers had tele- ap- e was a tendency on part the Atlanta to get into the Newark’s station. For awhile there was confusion, but the tangle was soon straightened out These little mishaps would be less likely to occur were our naval authorities to adopt the devices by which the ships of the British squadron kept each other informed. Each bas | and signals that show the number of revolutions made by each screw minute after minute, and still others that are worked by the steering gear to make plain the direc. tion in which the wheel is heing spun, In addi- tion to these useful precautionary measures | several active midshipmen aze continually en- gaged in scientifically determining the dis- tances from ship to shi if there ix a de- Fiation of more than a few yards the flag lien- tenant reports it and then up goes a signal to the wanderer and reformation follows immedi- ately. Astern of the British contingent the string was pretty badly frayed out. Brazil scopes leveled on the forsaken ones, and | if the girls sighed more deeply or with | greater frequency than did their admirers they | | must have been extraordinarily sorry. But grief was not permitted to disturb the business like arrangements of the best of Britain's cruisers; she was no longer at anchor. The Philadelphia took up station and was saluted, the others strung out behind the fiagships of Admiral Hopkins, who led the starboard col- umn, and Adriral Gherardi, who showed the port column how to get out of the harbor, and the great aggregation of guns and engines and men steamed slowly away. And while most of this was going on the Blake's excellent band gave utterance toa harmonious farewell to Vir- ginia. It was quite a little while before some of the component parts of the fleet arrived at a clear understanding with each other as to speed and station, and it was while these experiments Were being worked out that the Baltimore narrowly escaped collision with the Chicago. Just who was to blame could not be apparent | to uson the Blake, but we did see that the | Chicago's bow seemed to be perilously near the Baltimore's quarter. Such occurrences are | always to be looked for in squadrons where the | vessels have not maneuvered together suf- ficiently. The advantages of drill were clearly to be seen in the British squadron. | From the admiral’s bridge the closest watch | was kept over the Australia, the Magicienne and the Tartar. The slightest variation re- sulted in a signal from the flagship, and as the wind-waved reprimands are distasteful to the recipients every effort is made to keep perfect | station. The regulation distance from main- | mast to mainmast is a cable anda haif, and as | a cable is just 200 yards it may easily be figured out that each ship should, when in proper sta~ tion, be in the center of an ever-moving circle | of 900 feet. At 11 o'clock there was an assembly on the | poop of those who for some special reason | either wanted to see the captain or did not | want to. Applications for a change in rating or any other personal matter are presented at such time and petty offenders are judged. The cases are soon disposed of, at least those presented yesterday were, and then, for lack of other immediate occupation, we fell to wondering where the German ships procured the soft coal | | they were burning and why they got it. From the other funnels there was merely the faintest intimation of smoke, but the Kaiserin Augusta and the Seeadler belched-forth volumes of inky blackness that at times almost concealed them from their consorts’ gaze. NEARING THE CAPES. ‘As we neared the capes the Cushing steamed alongside of the Philadelphia and soon after shot ahead, to be seen by us no more until New York was reached. That was the first desertion, and another followed soon; “Farewell; pleasant journey, commenced to drop astern. Our first guess was that Secretary Herbert did not care to risk an attack of sea sickness and would therefore return to terra firma. The guess was a failure, for within afew minutes the dispatch boat had passed in front of the figure head which is supposed to be a counterfeit presentment of the famous old admiral who, after being civil- ian ang soldier for more than half «century, took to the sea in defense of English commerce and in six years bad swept away the fleets of Van Tromp, Ruyter and De Witt—supreme heroes of the days when Holland ruled the waves. When the Dolphin crossed the British fingship’s bows it was plain that the Secretary was not bound for the nearest shore, but pro- posed to reach the commercial metropolis as rapidly as possible, “Pleasant voyage,” signaled the keeper of the Cape Henry light, and he was thanked appro- priately and promptly for his good wishes. He 1s probably a pretty good fellow, and if he has any esthetic tendencies must suffer horribly when he looks at the hideously painted light- house which is in his keeping. ‘The coming of 12:30 on every vessel is sig- nalized by one tapon the ship's bell; ona British man-of-war the beli tap is accompanied bya bugle call, and the two sounds combined brings to the galley a representative of every mess in the forecastle. The loadstone is an daily poured:Jamaica rum and fresh water in the proportion of one to two, and from which the odoriferous compound is measured cut than take the meager sum which is called com- mutation, Each man is given a gill and a half each day. except when his allowance is stopped asa punishment. While Brittania’s sons were disposing of their liquor Capt. Arriens of the Dutch frigate Van Speijk must have come to the conclusion that nine knots an hour was a trifle too rapid for his ship, for at 1 o'clock the Dutchman moved out of the procession and took up a parallel position, wi he shou! fall to the rear ke would not inconvenience any of the others. The Van Speijk was only a 14.2- knot ship ten years ago, 80 none of the sailors were at her dropping out. An hour ands half later France's squadron—the Jean ips hs bceneel to all navies and such an eminent authority as Admiral Hopkins says that in most instances it re lortab! craft. ‘The tendency to make that which is developed in trial ‘The jolliest crowd of school boys were never jollier, never more active than the midship- mites and cadets who, to the number of & re fe of it £ i ia iH | oaken and brass hooped vessel, in which is | P© ; wa eee ro rane neve _!*| Sasa rolled up blanket thrown goed uatarotly |S straggied, Italy moved away far to thesoutheast of its proper station, France had forsaken the Hussard and consequently had but two of its representatives in line. jut these events were not easily to be seen from the deck of the Blake.torat precise distance came the Australia, Unswervingly except when at the commence ment of a watch a new man took the wheel; then the crutser would yaw for a few seconds, but that was all. A SEW FORMATION. When quarters sounded the formation was changed, the two columns being converted into four, and when that maneuver was com- pleted night commenced: to cloud the eastern jorizon. The shore was invisible, fully twenty miles away, #0 the sun—which is ordinarily be lieved in this country to disappear in the Pacific—moved steadily downward until ite direct brilliancy and ite hardly less dazzling reflection were extinguished by the deep-green Atlantic. Flags slowly be- came imperceptible, the semaphores with which short-range conversations *-e carried on in Admiral Hopkin squadron 1-:ded their Diack and white arms and seemed to sleep at their posts oa the bridge ends; lights twinkled faintly against the gray tints of fast proacbing gloom, then increased in strength until they shone clearly, the snowy bulls of our cruisers took on dark shade and reemed biack as black the red and white Ardois si *stoand fro. Viewed from the spectacular standpoint the Ardois system is atiead of all competition, but the English officers prefer the | plain white’ ele hight at the masthead. Dots and dashes—the Morse alphabet—convey the information, and they conveyed a great deal of it last night, PLEASANT ASSOCIATIONS. Dinner in the admiral’s mess—and none but Flag Capt. Hamilton, Flag Lieut. Sandeman and Secretar, Rowe ordinarily dine with the chief —is a trifle more ceremonious than other meals, principally as to dress. There is nothing extraordinary about it; no cbilli- ness nor formality. There was always a clearly evident desire on tne part of ail the officers to wimore about the United States and its people, for whom, in the main, they have the highest regard. None were more highly interested in our public and private affuirs than was the admiral and none contrib- uted more liberally or more cleverly to the conversation which, in combination with the appetizing products of a first-class chef, filled out the most delightful hours of the day. And when dinner was over what a pleasant, cozy spot was the admiral’s cabin when the admiral was there, and the incense of after- dinner cigars moved in waves of white across the coziiy furnished apartment from the vicinity of the fire that glowed in an open grate to one of the ventilating ports. And the good stories that were told, generally by the admiral, will long be remembered by those who were privileged to be +o closely associated with him, even if the association did not inst much more than a day. Perhaps at no time was the politeness of Sir John more clearly apparent than when he, knowing that his guests desired to visit the en- gine room, declared most reriously that he was going down that way and would be pleased to have them accompany him, On this try he showed a most intimate acquaintance witl all the details of an extremely intricate system of propulsion; talked fluently of fuel and the work it would do, of the quan- tities required by the Blake at various rates of speed; knew more about temperatures in the various departments than did the men who worked there: and proved very conclusively that even the most remote portions of those great floating vessels with which we are now surrounded were known to him. He is an all- round modern seaman of the highest type. Aft of the admiral’s cabin, overhang- ing the water and sheltered by a can- s awning, is the sternwalk—the admiral’s private promenade. The view from this reservation last night was simply beautiful. The moon—or as the admiral and a good many others of the Englishmen called it, “the parish lantern”—was out in a most attractive, if abbreviated, shape. and although its beams could not make the white cruisers appear white, still the combination of the lover's orb, the glistening waters, counties electric lights and just enough breeze to give the scene life was ‘something not easily to be forgotten. THE NEXT MORNING. “Here's your coffee, it The admiral's steward was the speaker, and his coming denoted the simultaneous arrival of 6 o'clock. The morning was just as calm as had been the night before. “At no time had there been any discomforting motion of the ship, and-even with the freshening of the morning breeze the: Mr. Kalph re- marked, no more “roll” than a man needed to go with his coffee. A few minutes later when I was on the tor- do deck one of the able seamen was whistling “Hail Columbia” very loudly and with a good deal of spint. “Are you goin’ to desert?” sung & voice from across the deck. “You're al- hhistlin’ that blasted tune.” Theonly reply in such a way that it put a temporary stoppage to further inuendoes. But maybe that ques- tion put into the whistler’s head an ides that had never before obtained admission. It was 9:30 when Admiral Gherardi signaled the morning “How d’ye do” to the Blake, and to this Admiral Hopkins ded, “*Quite well, thank you; hope you are the same.” REVIEW ORDER RESUMED. Twenty minutes Inter the Philadelphia sig- male again, this time to resume review order. E to Be Cremated. Funeral services over the remains cf Gen. E. | F.
