This was about what the average New
Torker said today wbea he beard that
the hero of If anils bad arrived la the
lower bay.
-Jel as he had itoka la on the Spaa-
Urda at Manila, the bold Admiral steam
ed lato New York waters early la the
moralag. aad at 6 a. as. heoaat anchor
ear Sandy Hook.
The Irst ihoot of weloome wea from
the pilots and crew of Pilot Beat No. 7,
II miles south of the Hook lightship. It
happened to be Pilot John Peterson's
torn, and at 5.S0 a. m. be was put aboard
the Olympla aad brought her around the
Hook aod into ths lower bay.
Tho marine observers along the eoest
bad sighted the Olympla la the first light
ot the morning. ' The shore batteries of
Fart Hancock, manned by gunners called
from breakfait, let loose 17 guns. Ths
fligahlp replied and let go her anchor
not far from where the cup challenger
Shamrock la moored.
The Admiral was la his owa country
again, after U monthi absence. "It 1
moat saddem me," he said, "to see what
my people ars doing tor me. ' The pride
and gratification are lmme ise and I can
not exprets the appreciation I feel. I
did not know, I did not really perceive
until this morning the splendid welcome
that my countrymen are giving me. The
Governors of many Hale are coming to
lee me, and treopi from Florida, Georgia
and other far away States are on their
way to take part In receiving me."
- "I am sorry that I am ahead ' of the
schedule. The Olympla has been steam
ing at the uniform rate of 10 knots an
hour slnee we left Gibraltar. Several
days sgo we knew that we would arrive
before .Thursday unless we moderated
our speed or Went somewhere but of our
course."
'"But the consideration that really de
dlded us to come Into port wss to give
Captain Lamberlon a chance to clean up
the ship before our voyage up the har
bor.. Captain L.mberton and I are proud
of the Olympla, and we wanted enough
time at oar anchorage to rub her down
and make her leok iplck and span."
The Olympla looki ai smart now as s
yacht.' Her anchors were hardly down
before her crtw were washing the ship's
white sidei and touching up the stalm
with paint. ' - .'..-
