NEW YORK, June 21.—When the Olympic, on which Rear Admiral Sims is returning to-this country by order of Secretary Denby, docks Wednesday {it will be at a bare pier. Officials of the line decided, after a conterence with port officials, to ex- | clude the public “to avoid discrimina- tion.” — There have been many reports that proponents and opponents of the ad- {miral's London speech, in which he jdealt with Irish-Americans, were planning _demonstrations of opposite ;\_at-are. The pie™ will be heavily po- iced. - According to a statement made by Secretary Denby, no special arrange- ments have been made by the Navy | Department to expedite the landing of Admiral Sims on his_arrival at New York on the liner Olympic to- morrow, and he is expected to re- !main on the steamer until it reaches dock. Under his orders, Admiral Sims will proceed to this city with- out delay and report in person to the Secretary of the Navy. Referring to reports from New York that Irish sympathizers were planning a demonstration for the naval officer as a result of his criti- cism during a London speech of the activities of friends of Ireland in the United States, the Secretary said he hoped no situation would develop to make it impossible for an ad- miral of the United States to land in the ordinary Wway or to be embar- rassed by any element when he landed. —_— STEAMER ORION CHARTERED.
