NEW YORK, Aug. 29.——Promptly at 8
o’clock colors Were hoisted on board the
fleet of the American warships at anchor
01? Tompkinsville, N. Y., with the usual
ceremonies, the band of the-flagship New
York, flying the flag of Rear Admiral
Francis M. Bunce, playing the “Star
Spangled Banner. ” Shortly afterward the
crews of all the ships were busily engaged
in polishing and burnishing, coiling‘ and
flemishing, oiling and cleaning, vigorous-
ly placing the finishing touches upon the
naval finery displayed in all its glory in
honor of Uncle Sam and preparatory to
Welcoming Li Hung Chang, the grand old
man of China, the statesman of many ti-
tles, in an appropriate manner.
The sun was shining royally. A brisk
northwest breeze was stirring the waters
of the upper and lower buy into gentle

soft, grayish haze clung picturesquely, en-
veloping the forts, wharfs and green slopes
in a mantle most soothing to the eye.
Shortly after the announcement at 9
o’clock that the St. Louis was sighted east
of Fire island throngs of people, many per-
sons bearing picnic baskets, traveled
across the ferries or by other roads to Fort
Wadsworth, Fort Hamilton, Bay Ridge,
quarantine, Tompkinsville and other
points from which the arrival and greet-
ing of the distinguished guest of the na-
tion could be witnessed'to the best advan-
tags.
Other crowds flocked to the Battery,
and others still stationed themselves at an
early hour in the vicinity of the American
line dock, where the traveler was to land.
It is doubtful if New York bay ever pre-
'sented a grander sight than it did this
morning; for anchored there in stately
strength were 11 of. the warships of- the
new navy of the United States, splck and ‘
span, pretty as the prettiest of pictures,
the embodiment of grace and strength, of
speed and offensive power.
An Imposing Display.
The Chinese statesman at the review off
Spithead after he visited Queen Victoria
at Osborn was treated to a fine display of
warships, 47 ships, 27 battleships and
cruisers and 20 torpedo destroyers being
there aligned for his inspection, but he
never set eyes on a finer fleet than that
commanded by Admiral Bunce today.
Each vessel represented the very latest im-
provement in everything, and it is safe to
say that one and all are capable of _ whip-
ping at least three times their Weight in
any foreign warships afloat.
This gallant fleet, which swung in dou-,
ble column, en enchelon, to the flood tide
at 10 o’clock, rams pointing seaward, con-
sistedpf the following vessels: . I
The Indiana, first class battleship, 10,-.
288 tons, 4 13 inch, 8 8 inch, 6 4 inch
quick fire and 30 smaller quick fire guns,
about 500 men.
The New York, flagship, first class ar-
mored cruiser, 8,500 tons, 6 8 inch, 12 4 inch
quick fire and 16 smaller guns, carrying
484 men. _
The Massachusetts, first class battle-
ship, 10,288 tons, 4 13 inch, 8 8 inch, 6 4
inch and 30 smaller quick fire guns, about
500 men.
The Maine, armored cruiser, 6,682 tons,
4 10 inch, 6 6 inch and . 20 smaller guns,
400 men.
The Texas, second class battleship, 6,300
tons, 2 12 inch 46 ton guns, 6 6 inch and
22 smaller quick fire guns, 400 men.
The Columbia, first class cruiser, 7,475
tons, 1 8 inch, 2 6 inch, 8 4 inch and_20
smaller guns, about 500 men.
The Newark, cruiser, 4,083 tons, 12 6
inch and 17'smaller guns, 800 men.
The Raleigh, cruiser, 3,183 tons, 1 6
inch, 10 5 inch quick flre guns and 14
smaller quick fire guns, about 300 men.
The Montgomery, cruiser, 2,000 tons, 9
5 inch quick fire guns and 10 smaller guns,
about 200 men. -
The Amphitrite, double turret monitor,
3,990 tons, 4 10 inch, 2 4 inch ~quick fire
and 6 smaller guns, 155 men.
The Terror, double turret monitor, 3,990
tons, 4 10 inch and 8 smaller guns, 155
, 70ther Arrangements. »
In addition, placed at the disposal of
Major General Thomas H. Ruger, cem-
manding the eastern departmentof the
United States army, was the steel cruiser
Dolphin, 2 4 inch quick fire and 6 smaller
guns, about 150 men. The Dolphin had‘
on board General Ruger and staff and lay
ofi Governors island, preparatory to"
steaming down to meet the St. Louis so
soon as the latter was signaled in the low-
er bay.. - '
At the ”American line pier were station-
ed four troops of the Sixth cavalry, U. S. .
A., and a detachment of the naval reserves,
the former detailed to escort the great
Chl'naman up Broadway to the, Waldorf
hotelia‘nd the latter acting as a. guard of
honor at the dock, which was appropriate-
ly decorated. for the occasion,.the_ United
States flalg'Eanda the yellow standard of
'China, with its black dragon rampant,
predominating. , . _ ~
It Was'orlginally intended to take Li
-Hung,Changoff the St. Louis at quaran-‘
tins and convey him to-some pier up town
linwpicr, which is near Fulton street and
downtown, but the Chinese minister rep-.
resented to General Ruger thatthe age of
the Chinese statesman precluded any such

C
feat of strength and agility as clambering
from the St. Louis to the Dolphin, and so
this featureof theiprog‘ramme was aban- ‘
defied. ‘ . » .
On board the Dolphin with General Ru-
ger were the Chinese minister Yang and
suit, the Chinese consul, a few specially
invited guests and representatives of the
press. " ‘
.-Also hovering about .the bay was afleet
of "sail, and steam yachts, exdursion boats
and tugs loaded with passengers, which
were probably more interested in seeing
the ships of the so called white squadron—7
really'a very fine fleet—fire. their 21 gun sa-
lutes than in the witnessing of the. arrival
in American waters of. theChinese envoy.
Li's Many Titles.
The latter, by the way, has so >many ti-
tles that the officials here werefor a time
in somewhat of a quandary as to how to
address him. Some of his titles are:
Chief of the Chinese mission at the cor-
onation at Moscow, ambassador, envoy ex-
traordinary, special envoy, senior guardian
of the heir apparent, prime minister of
state, earl of the first rank, First Secretary‘
Li, Li Comte Li Hung Chang, and soon.
Eventually, however, it was decided to
address the Chinesestatesman as your ex-
cellency, and so he will be officially termed
during his stay in this country.
Fort Meyer was left entirely without
cavalry in order that Li Hung Chang
might havea striking hint of the might of
the standing army of the great United
States. He was undoubtedly delighted
when his eyes fell upon them, for in the
yellow streaming from the tops of their
helmets and facing their coats and striping
their trousers he saw the predominant na-
tional color of his imperiel master’s Celes‘
tial domain. Unless he inquired very par-
ticularly he might have supposed that all
this glare of, yellow was assumed as a spe-
cial compliment .to his country. '
The four troops, A, E, H and J, compos-
ing the whole cavalry force at Fort Meyer,
arrived at the, Battery at about half past
10 o’clock. The cavalrymen unquestiona-
bly presented a fine appearance. Their
horses Were groomed ‘until their flanks
shone, uniforms looked as bright as new,
and every particle of metal upon them-
selves or their horses glittered. The men
themselves Were healthy, hardy looking
young fellows, with an evident average of
intelligence among them which some peo-
ple do not believe belongs to regulars in'
' time of peace.
he troop attracted much attention
from the crowds that had already gathered
' at Battery park.
When Colonel Sumner drew up the de-
tachment in Battery place, people hemmed
them in so that their maneuvers were
much impeded. Police there seemed to
be none, and finally the cavalrymen had to
do their own police work. The officers
rode their horses right at the crowd and
made them stand back. After the soldiers
dismounted, however, people'were only 'oc-
casionaily ordered hack, ‘and ' soon t'h.
crowd was conversing amicably with the
cavalrymcn. Midway the line of troopers
stood a milk wagon which forthwith dida
thriving business with the thirsty men.
Among the curious {people who surged
around were many Chinamen ‘ dressed in
gold attire and apparently feeling proud
over the fact that the United States was
bestirring itself to welcome their distin
gdished countryman. '
The cavalry, nevertheless, did not draw
everybody in Battery park. The sea wall
continued to be lined with a throng,
straining its eyes for the St. Louis and
waiting for the booming of cannon from
Castle William when the steamer passed
Governors island.
' The Chinese Flag.
The mayor made the following procla-
mation today:
“By virtue of the authority contained in
chapter 36 of the laws of 1895 and the
power invested in me as mayor of the city
of New York, I do hereby publicly, pro-
claim that the flag of the Chinese nation
may be displayed upon the public build-
ings of the city of New York so long as
the distinguished statesman of that coun-
try, Viceroy Li Hung Chang, shall remain
in the city of New York.” ‘
Chinatown was ready early today to cel-
ebrate the landing here of H. I. C. M.’s
ambassador. Bed, yellow and green bunt-
ing disguised the houses—mean, dingy,
gray brown tenements—into 'cbjects of
lively, brilliant interest, while'the Chinese
of the quarter, dressed in their shimmer-
ing silks or bright hued cotton, stood in
the doorways or on the fire escapes watch-
, ing placidly the commotion in the street.
Then the Chinese visitors from other parts
of the town and from other towns and vil-
lages hereabout were scurrying hither and
thither,- seeking lodgings or restaurant or
paying calls. .
Chinatown Lively.
Christians and Hebrewa, German, Ital-
ian, Irish, all the western nationalities of
all classes and occupations, passed through
the quarter or lingered, attracted from
place to place by the booming of a tam-
tam, the squeak of a Chinese fiddle or .the
exit of a committee to carriages. Over all
this foreign excitement the red moon
danced in the wind on the red, white or
yellow streamer, while the great imperial
dragon writhed and twisted, coiled and
uncoiled as it leaped through the air.
Carriages drove up at 9 o’clock to the
entrance to the Soo Yup ’Associaiton of
Merchants, and into them disappeared in
fours the committee of 100 who are ,to as-
sist at the reception of Earl Li. They
posted on the left glass window of their
backs a red paper, with a sufficient ex,-
planation in Chinese letters of their busi-
ness, and then drove ofl in line to Broad-
way, up which they rode to the residence
in West Ninth street of the Chinese con-
sul. Other Chinese were busy buying
tickets for the P. Divver association and
other excursions which were to go down
the harbor to meet the St. Louis: One
boat was to have a band, but all the agent
could secure Were a drum and a pair of
cymbals, the noisiest parts of a Chinese
band- ' . I
When all ' these various parties had
gone, the quarter was still populous and
lively. The dragon still squirmed, to the
delight of the curious. Little Italy sent
hundreds of men, women, boys and girls
'down Mott street to see what was up.
From the Ghetto across the Bowery and
from Cherry Hill below it came the J ew-
ish and Irish children, who were happy
with the strange scene of many colors.

The Trip’ Up the Bay.
When the St. Louis was first sighted, it
was seen that she was coming at a terrible?
rate from the direction of Fire island. The
observatory at Sandy Hook hoisted the
stars and stripes and saluted the St. Louis
as she sped by.
The latter was decorated, in hunting and
had the yellow flag of China at the truck.
of her mainmast. Going up along the
west bank, the St. Louis met more than
100 steamboats coming down to welcome
her. '
The passengers of the steamer were cl us-
tered about the rails on both sides, and .
the eastern earl could be seen on the
steamer’s bridge. He seemed to enjoy the
din and noise as he must have enjoyed the
beauties of the lower bay as it sped by.
The water at that time was rufiied by a
light roll; the atmosphere was as clear as -
crystal, with just the slightest tinge of-au-
tumn coolness in it, and, with the natural
beauties of the imposing spectacle, com-
bined to make Li Hung Chang’s first view
of the harbor a pleasing one.
The St. Louis’ run up the lower bay
through the 12 miles of tortuous channels
was accomplished in 37 minutes. and she
had to make the water fairly boil under
her how and stern to do that. At 12:35
she came abreast of the Narrows, and then
the immense multitude on the bluff on
either side started in to cheer. The Dol-
phin, which at 10:20 had steamed through
the fleet of warships anchored in double
column from quarantine up to Tompkins-
ville, dropped her anchor off the health
ofiicer’s landing dock just as the St. Louis
turned Fort Wadsworth. ,
Almost everybody on the two blufls at
the Narrows had gone there with the ex-
pectation of hearing the two forts give a
salute of welcome. But everybody was
mistaken. Wadsworth and Hamilton were
as silent as dumb men. The St. Louis
went by under-reduced speed, but the guns
of the two forts did not speak.
Health Officer Doty and his staff of offi-
cers had a special quarantine boat reserved
to go aboard the St. Louis the moment she
came abreast of the landing. At 12:40 the
steamer moved 'up slowly to where the
Dolphin was anchored,»and then General
Ruger and his staff wére transferred to the

steamer and welcomed the earl in the
name of the president. The St. Louis was
delayed only a few minutes in quarantine,
and at a speed of nine knots an hour she
started at 12:55 for her pier. ’
She headed straight for the lane between
the double column of warships, and the
firing began. Never in the history of the
oldest naval ofiicer was a salute more ef-
fectively rendered.
. The St. Louis reached herdock at 1:30
o’clock. She was tied up ten minutes
later, and Li and his suit landed. They
were greeted with great cheers. .
