The rain bad ceased, and while the clouds hung low overhead there were indications that led the anxious spectators to hope for the appearance of the sun. t 1:30 the first boom of the 10-inch gun on the Miantonomoh announced that the Dolphin, with the President on board.was passing up be- tween the two columns of war vessels, As soon as the President stepped on board the Dolphin the vessel tripped her anchor and fired one gun as a signal. This was responded to by a boom which seemed to shake the whole city. The double- turreted monitor Miantonomob, lying at the rear of the port column, fired for the first time in port one of her huge 10-inch guns, charged with nearly 250 pounds of powder. Almost be- fore the reverberations of this twenty-five ton gun had died away in the distant echoes the whole RUSSIA'S GENERAL ADMIRAL. fleet was called to quarters, yards were manned and every preparation made to receive the President of the United States with becoming respect. Seen at this moment, and before the enveloy ing clouds of gun powder smoke from the sub- sequent salutes had obscured the air, the scene Wat as pretty as well could be imagined. As the Dolphin’s bow came in line with each man- of-war “present arms” was sounded on the bugle, officers and crew saluted, the bands struck up the national air and a national salute of twenty-one guns was fired by each ship. ovER 1,600 GuNs FED.

As soon as the Dolphin passed out from be- | tween the anchored fleet the cordon was | broken and private steamers and yachts rushed in.

THE FOREIGNERS IMPRESSED. Nor was the spectacle one which they them- selves would be likely to forget. The view they have had the last two days of New York's magnificent harbor and of the vast concourse gathered to honor the event in which th Participated could not fail to make an impres- sion. The German officers expect to remain in these waters some weeks before sailing for the African coast and speak pleasantly of their anticipation of meeting some of New York's many thousand German citizens.

Our own magnificent white fleet, through one or more of its representatives, bas become somewhat familiar in New York waters, foreign visitors was none the less acknowl- edged. When close under the bows of the British flagship its immense size, 9,000 tons, double that of the big Philadelphia, could be appreciated. e German steamers are both new, the Kaiserin Augusta on her trial trip, and’ the Seeadler (Sea Eagle) built only two years ago THE NEWARK. and on her maiden voyage. The Kaiserin is reputed to have maintained « level speed of twenty knots for an entire day. This, of course, is surpassed by the Argentine cruiser, which can make twenty-two knots, and is the fastest vessel in the fleet. It was a mat- ter of amused surprise to many of the visitors to be told that the immense masts of the Jean Bart were hollow, with a winding staircase in- side, leading to a fighting tower on top. Hrd the ‘strict discipline maintained on naval re- these masts would have been one of the first objects explored. wen with the restrictions which naval dis- cipline imposed the opportunity for viewing at close range the crack ships of the ten nations formed a leading feature ina day which will be memorable for its spectacular effects, for the deafening roar which the simultaneous dis. charge of 840 guns at once can produce, and for the evidence of international friendship setts, Gov.
