The officers of the fleet did not wear their showy uniforms , but were attired ? In "special undress A , " as It is technically known In the navy. There were no gold epaulets , gold bound beavers and clattering swords aboard. This was by the admiral's order and added but another to the many evidences of his unlquo modesty. A brother ' nnd the widow of Captain Grldley , who * fought the Olympla in Manila bay , Colonel Franklin" Bartlett , former representative In congress from Now' York , nnd an intimate * personal friend of the admiral , together with three newspaper men , were the only civilians aboard. Ono of the naval guests was the ' engineer of 'tho Olympla when It led the way past. Corregldor Island. Hewas given three rousiug cheers aa he went forward to see the men. When Admiral Dewey returned from the Sandy Hook , the wlg-waggor on the bridge signalled the fleet to prepare to get under way. The ( gangways were hauled up and the booms rigged. An old quartermaster hurried a'eraall , dark roll of bunting to the main , hand over flst. It hung there while th'o bugfe eounded the call to quarters and the -marines were mustered aft. Then Just as the signal to weigh was given a 'pull on the halyards opened the .fold and spread the four starred' flag , which Farraguti flew as ho ran tijo-jfprl1 In New-Orleans. It waa the flag whlch'wnB ' presente'd to A'dmiral Dewey.

It is altogether unlikely that Admiral Dewey will ever command another - other fleet. Order to Form In Column. The brilliant cede flags bristled like flow ers on the Olympla from bridge to maintop. It was the order to form in column. The Brooklyn's pennant snapped "aye , aye , " from the signal yard and a duplicate- set of flags passed the order to the Indiana , whence it waa flung from Ship to ship. The black epeed cones of the Olympla climbed slowly io its yards as the big cruiser got under * -way. ' The vessels nlowly turned like a troop of cavalry squadron , front toward The 'Narrows , and then fetching a graceful sweep , Jicadod up the harbor toward the battery ( -ho ' Olympla escorted by the mayor's boat , the Sandy Hook In the lead. Back of it , at n 400-yard interval , came the Now York , then the powerful Indiana and Massachu- fiette. The fleet-footed Brooklyn , the sturdy old Texas , the rakleli , yacht-like Dolphin , , . the old Lancaster , a relic of another naval ago , the powerful Chicago and flnnlly the Ilttlo Marietta , the rear guard of the fighting craft. Behind stretched the transports and further etlll , almost lost In the distance , the yachts and miscellaneous craft hull down the horizon. The evolution began at 1 o'clock and In fifteen minutes thu lighting line was straightened" up the harbor. Admiral Dewey waa at the head ot the squadron that would have won three battles at Manila bay without stopping for breakfast. The head of the column was a broad arrow. Six torpedo boats- - spread out as the bar , three on each side of the Olympla's quarter , Outside of these a flying wedge of police patrol boats formed a great V whose apex was the Olympla. Following these , ahead and astern , were tbo harbor ( Ire-boats , But the pageant buck of this powerful vanguard , was not limited to a slnglenor , tea a sextupl'p line of ships. Itwas a sinuous marlno , monster half a mlle wide , whosu vertobrno Avns the ships of .the wh'lto squad- ion and .whose riba were rows upon rows of o.very . sort of floating thing that had ever run py steam In Now York harbor , , S'jiectnele Vlevr'eil Iiy Tlidimnnd'ii. Thousands viewed the epectaclo ns It roovod up past Staten Island ; thousands anoro watched ii frcm the anchored sailing craft ' that crovyded the Erie basin , anil who'so epars rose In n forest about the foot of Liberty. But they were forgotten in iho mass of humanity thut crowded the waterfront of Manhattan Island and filled every point of vantage along- the Jersey chore. This feature of the scene flrst broke on the view as Castle William roared nn admiral's salute to the Olympla off the bat tery. By the tlmo the answering eraoko had died away from the wnke of the flagship the immensity of the watching crowd dawned upon the crews pf the squadron. Every foot of the city waterfront was a mass of humanity. The wharves , the ferry slips , the roofs of ferry and warehouse rose ono ibpvc another In solid blocks of people above ( ho lower structures of the waterfront , "He Laughs Best Who Laughs Last. ff A fitarly hvgh indicates A degree of good health obtainable through pure blood , As bui one person in ten has pure blood , the other nine should purify the blood with Hood's Sarsaparilta , Then they can tlugh first , lust and d ( the time , for Every 1 roof bore Ite living freight. Stores , j old office buildings nnd modern sky-scrapers were crowded with stands , tiers upon tiers of scats- , like an Immense theater , whose roof was the sky , whose walls wore the sur rounding bills , and whoso back droo was the horizon of the lower bay. As the pageant moved majestically Into the Hudson It was seen that the crowd etlll lined the waterfront nnd housetops , thicker , . If possible , than ever , and stretching up I the river along the whole line of parade. , The heights of the Jersey side wore also crowned with parti-colored masses of people. They wore not such an unbroken rank as the wharves of the New York side , but wherever the wooded slopes broke into a clcarlnc the slope was blackened with people ple from crest to water line. There was no possible way of estimating the crowd. The morning papers declared there were 1,500,000 visitors In the city. The impression convoyed by the crowded shores was that It would have taken fully that many in addition to the local popula tion to form the concourse that watched the water pageant. The spectators might have been computed In army corps , certainly not by individuals. Up the Hudson pandemonium reigned su preme. Aerial * ombs broke at Intervals Overhead in puffs of white smoke and a feathery canopy of steam hung ovdr "the advancing fleet as hundreds of steam whistles screamed'contlnuously.

Nature Paint" nn , Arcli. „ Here , too , a disaster of wind and''rain threatened. Some clouds that had gathered down the bay followed clcee In the pageant's wake. A sharp -wind trod whltecaps even In the narrow river and a few raindrops pat tered on the decks. The glare of anangry sky turned the harbor .behind . the warships to molten lead on which the gigantic figure - uro of Liberty seemed to stand for a while and wtts soon swallowed up In a bank of gray haze. Then the threatening sky re- ented. The sun broke out ahead and painted acroes the sullen clouds a rainbow arch that stretched from Manhattan to the Jersey shore. It eeemed abit of nature's art work spread by a kindly miracle at the opportune moment , 'beggaring man's more liumblo efforts on shore , but forming a fit ting arch of triumph beneath which the vie- torloua admiral sailed to his triumphal anchorage. The old Portsmouth's crew manned the rigging as the Olyropla passed and off Grant's .tomib . the naval reserves on the St. Mary did the same. Hound the etako boat the Olympla turned smartly , lie guns throb bing a deep-'throatod ' salute to the restlng- place of another national hero. The other vessels of the whlta squadron swung around the St. Mary's tn turn , each saluting -the tomb , though at the head of the line -tho sound of the further guns was lost in the roar of steam whistles. The turn of the parade broke the forma tion of the police boats beyond repair. The war ships doubling < back Into the mass or advancing boats threatened for a time serl ous consequences , but the Olympla and its consorts safely dropped anchor at last in reversed column and the water pageant pae ed the admiral In review. The police boats reappeared as individuals and uncere moniously shouldered intruding vessels out of the line of march. Tbo official proces sion and Its varied following of , tugs , launches , steam dredges and excursion boat * rounded the St. Mary's and came , dojyn the river in an indistinguishable 'aquatic mob that was still passing long after the night Illumination bad begun. , ' , The big steamer Hook ' Sandy Hook'carrying the mayor and thu committee which waa se lected to board the Olympla and formally welcome Admiral Dewey In "thehamo of the City of New York' , and with upward of 1,000 distinguished gueets and offi cials on board , steamed away from the Uty's pier at the Battery shortly after 10 o'clock to make the visit to tbo Olympla and start the naval parade. The great white boat car ried the flag of tbo city and was gaily dressed in bunting. The police boat Patrol followed her as an escort , Among the Invited' guests on the. Sandy Hook were the governors of a number of Btajtej , the Justices of the supreme court of this state , a number of city officials , the members of Admiral Dewey'a family , Arch bishop Corrigan , Senator Uopew , nichard Crokcr and Beth Low. Among the governors on board were Governor Bwewney of North Carolina , Rollins of New Hampshire Dyer of llhodo Island , Ulcharda of Wyoming , Mc Millan of Tennessee , Stone of Pennsylvania. The Sandy Hook arrived at the Olympla at 10:40 : o'clock. The Olympla's launch put oft to the Bandy Hook , but the mayor could not get on board , the deck being too high. The police Doat Patrol saw the trouble the mayor was In and steamed up alongside the Sandy Hook. The mayor then stepped aboard the Patrol , from which he 'boarded ' the launch. The launch put off for the Olympla and steamed up to the starboard side. The mayor ascended the ladder and stopped on board the Qlyrapla'a deck at precisely 11 o'clock. As coon as Captain Lamborton sighted the Sandy Hook ho gave the word to the officer of the day and a bugle blast summoned the marlno guard aft. The men lined up to the port Bldo of the deck whtla Captain Lamber- ton took up a position on the starboard after gangway , Admiral Dewey paced the deck a few feet away , All the officers of the ship were In undres * uniform and wore no swords. Admiral Dewey carried a pair ot &cw doeskin gloves In his hand , The steamboat Patrol , manned by fifty or moro policemen In uniform , ran under the stern of the Sandy Hook nnd made fart to the starboard gangway. The mayor and his party boarded and the Patrol dropped astern. The barge of the Olympla ran nlongsllo and the mayor , with hie pri vate pocretary , A , M. JJowncs , Knndolph Gtlggcnhelmcr , president of the municipal council ; Thomas F. Woods , president of the board of aldermen , and n stenographer stepped aboard. A couple of minutes later the barge hooked onto the starboard after gangway of the Olympla. Mayor Van Wyck was the flrst to mount the stairway. IlcMVpy CnliiM n Meilnl. Admiral Dewey was standing a few feet aft of the gangway when the mayor stepped on dock. Major Van Wyck stepped imme diately towards the admiral and Introduce. ! himself. They shook hands warmly , then the admiral ehook hands with Mr. Downes , whom ho had mot before. Mayor Van Wyck was apparently about to speak when the admiral put his hand on liln elbow and turned him towards the entrance to Captain Lamberton's cabin. "Let's go Inside , " ho said. The whole party went Into the cabin , Captain Lambor- ton bringing up the rear. They were Inside less than flvo minutes before they returned to the deck. Admiral Dewey wore a medal on his left breast that had not been there ten minutes previously. Ho took a turn or two on deck with the mayor , while the rest of his party stood around talking to the ship's officers. Then the barge was called alongside again and Admiral Dewey led the mayor down tho" gangway and boarded the barge with him. The barge took Its passen gers to the Patrol and the Patrol trans shipped them to the Sandy Hook. The band on the Sandy Hook struck up , "See , the Conquering Hero Comes ! " as the Patrol ap proached. The admiral's visit to the Sandy Hook was a lengthy one. As soon ns toe bsarded the steamer ho was taken in hand by the'epeclal commlttoo of the reception committee and taken aft , where he held n reception. All the mayor's gitests , the visiting governors nnd others were Introduced to him. With him as escort was Flag Lieutenant Brumby ot his personal staff. The admiral shook hands with everybody nnd said a word hero nnd there'when he recognized an old acqualnancc. It was about 11:30 : o'clock wnen he boarded the Sandy Hook and It was quite nn hour later when the sides of the Olympla were manned to greet him on his return. The steamer Monmouth , flying the state flag , loft the foot of Rector street shortly after 11 o'clock. On hoard were Governor Roosevelt and his staff , delegates from the state senate and assembly , judges of the court of appeals , the regents o-f the univer sity , the congressional delegation of the state. Mayor Roe and staff , members of the republican and democratic state committees , various state officers and representatives of the naval militia of Now York. Women were present in large numbers. At 11:15 : the City of Lawrence , with 250 Chlcagcans and a like number nf citizens from Hartford , Conn. , lft the dock at Pier 24. East river. Mayor Carter H. Harrison , the head of the Chicago Dewey committee , was not on board , as ho had accepted the invitation of Mayor Van Wyck to participate in the naval parade on board the mayor's boat , the Sandy Hook. The. City of .Lawrence was beautifully decorated with the national colors , and from the forward mast swung a Huge flag , bearIng - Ing the words "Chicago Dewey Committee.

From the time the British yacht'J-BrinrBtarted sHSPrc'ertaraly was the chief attraction along the riveV' front after the Olympla had gone by and Sir Thomas 'Llpton was accorded an ovation all along- the line. To those on board the Erin , decked out aa she was with flags of all descriptions , it looked as if the American people were greatly pleased with Sir Thomas and were delighted for an opportunity to glvo him a hearty welcome. Sir Thomas had on board fifty or more of his friends on this side of the water and from England and the company during the later part of the afternoon were kept busy returning the cheers which were hurled at the Erin from all sides. Among those- who watched the parade from tbo decks of the Erin were Prince Reginald DeCroy of Bel- glum and Hon. Charles Russell of London. The Erin headed the starboard column with Colonel John Jacob Aetor's Nourmahal right astern , while the Niagara , with How ard Gould on board , headed the port col umn , with the Now Josephine of Joseph N. Wldencr right behind it. The Erin was continuously saluted on the way up and the man on the after deck , bo- sldo the flagstaff , which carried the big yacht pennant , was continuously dipping it in return. "Everything seems to be good flrst class , " said Sir Thomas , as the yacht neared the battery , "and the parade la certainly a great success. " Looking over through the tremendous crowd that covered the wharves and battery ho shouted down to those on deck : "Just see them over there , did you ever see m many people. It is wonderful , marvelous. I could not believe that BO many people could to gotten together. " I'YnOTISCHNIC AND BI.ECTIHC SHOW. Mont Plcluremiiie Spectacle Ever WKiteHKffl in Grcnt Melropolln.

NEW YORK. Sept. 29. Few boata In the parade played a more prominent part and none gave a heartier welcome to Admiral Dewey than the steamer Monmouth , which flew the flag ot New York state and car ried several hundred distinguished officials and their wives and daughters , Among those on the Monmouth were Gov. ornor Roosevelt and hla staff ; Commander J , W.

As the Monmoutb steamed down the bay to take her place in the parade , she passed the Olympla some quarter ot a mile to star board , She dipped the state flftg , but this was evidently not seen on the ndtnlral'H bent nsftho salute received no recognition.

The wild- cet panto over witnessed on the lloor ot the Now Orleans Cotton exchange occurred todny shortly after business opened And caused In the midst of the Intense excitement the coin- uleto suspension of future business , pending Lho Investigation of what ot Uio moment was assumed to ho a gigantic conspiracy to swindle the cotton exchanges of the country. The panic was duo to an apparent terrific Jump In the price of cotton , based on alleged Liverpool advices and It was roughly call- mated that $170,000 had been lost on local tiansactlons ns a result. Later In Iho day the exchange , after receiving legal advice , declared null and void all future transac tions of the day. This action , however , promises to bo bitterly contested and liti gation is likely to bo the flnal outcome. Future business hero will not bo resumed until Monday. The market at Liverpool , opened 3-32d lower on spots and 4-C4J down on deliveries , an compared with yesterday's values and con tinued dull without material change for some time. Then wlrce there became hot with tales of rapidly advancing prices. They started up one-half of a sixty-fourth at a tlmo at flrst and then Jumped 1-64 , 1-1-Cl , 2-04 In quick order , until the net advance up to 9:45 : local time showed 4 1'64.

With an un accountable advance of fifty-four points fac ing them the operators began to receive cablegrams from Liverpool asking the reason for the hoary gain In prices In this market and stating that values In the English mar ket still stood about at the opening figures. Those cable advices la the face of from 40,000 to 60,000 bales sold and purchased , threw the operators Into , a frenzy of excite ment and they surged , shouted , yelling and gesticulating about tlie ring ns President Parker rushed to his desk and RUmmoned without the usual formalities a meeting of the exchange. Amid tumultuous scenes a motion to suspend business was gasped out by a wildly excited broker and with a tre mendous shout It was unanimously carried. Manager West of the Western Union com pany , as soon as he got wind of the sensa tional advance , set his wires to work with messages of Inquiry to New York. Heplles came promptly directing that all specials In reference to Liverpool fluctuations be sus pended until they could be confirmed by the 4 p. m. report. In the face of these reports and the advances from Liverpool , President Parker convened the directors early In the aftoruoon and It ivas then concluded to close the future market until Monday in order to permit the brokers to recover from their shock and the cable Investigation to bo concluded fixing the 'blame ' for the re markable blundering or the responsibility for the conspiracy. - Seek a.
