New York, Npv. 5.C-From the bridge
of the ktt flower, where Tbeodore
Roosevelt had stood to bid a Godspeed
to the departing and then a welcome to
the home) coming battle ship fleet, that
circled the globe three years ago. Pres
ident Taft yesterd y reviewed the most
notable assemblage of warships in the
history of thi.Aenerican eavy.
In three long columns stretchin? at
far as the eye could rea;h op the Hud
son river, the grim, gray sb ps-99 in
all hadkwaiud the Presidents coming.
In hie honor iheyj were dressed from
em to stern io fluttering flags, as if
a tempting for this gala occasion to
oncesl the muzzluS of the death deal
ing guns. The gay Dueling lent color; to
the sc joe, but the meaning of the dull
K ray bulls and the polished rifles th it
protruded from turrent mouths could
not be maiked. .:
The significance of the mobilization
and review of the fleet at h s time was
simply to demonstrate ihe preparedness
of the American navy for any emergen
cy. To further impress. this fact open
the President and the nation, to say no '
thing of tin world at large, the naval
authorities were not content with the
usual plan of a review of the fl et at
anchor. ' -
. 8ut in addition the or 'era provided
that after the Mayflower had steamed
through the several columns the fit et
should get under way and pass out to
sea. This double rpsctacle made the
review unique in the annals of nival
displays throughout the world, and at
tracted to New York the military and
naval attaches of most of the powers of
Europe,
President Taft had his first real re
view of the American navy It had so
happened since he enteoed the While
House that the flett whi h was so great
ly idmired by his predeces'or, Colonel
Kuostvelt, had been on widely scattered
duty for- the greater part of the time.
And while the Pre ident htd reviewed
two divisions of the Atlantic fleet in
frovineetown harbor in the summr
of 1910 and a little more than 2 weeks
ago in San Francisco had sto d upon the
quarterdeck of the flagship California
of the Pa iflc fleet, he had never until
now come into his own aa commander-
in-chief of the' fighting forcts of the
couitry.
