Given Warm Welcome by His Old Neighbors and Friends. His Arrival at Sagamoro Hill Com pletes tho Family Circle at tho Private Evidence. OYSTER BAY, N. Y., July 2. Presi dent Roosevelt's homecoming was made the occasion of a cor dial demonstration In which' the citizens of Oyster Bay, Mr. Roosevelt's friends nnd neighbors for years, united to do honor to the chief executive. Ir respective of political afllllatlons, the residents of this pretty little village turned out to welcome the President to his home. It was a genuine fete day In Oyster Bay. Business was practical ly suspended, and residences and busi ness houses were decorated with Hags and bunting. Began at Long Island City. The Oyster Bay reception to Mr. Roosevelt really began on his. arrival at Long Island City. There lie was met by a reception committee and con ducted to a special train which, at 2:15 p. m., started for his home town. All alone the route crowds of people had assembled at the stations, and many houses were decorated with flags. No stops were made, but the crowds showed their good will by waving Hags, hats and handkerchiefs as the train swept by. Decorated With Flags. The station at Oyster Bay, which had been beautifully decorated with Hags and llowers, was; thronged with people. They had come far and near to extend their greetings. As the train slopped the crowd cheered enthusiastically and when the President appeared on the platform of his car the people received him uncovered, hundreds waving hand kerchiefs and (lags. Through a space which had been roped off, the Presi dent, bowing right and left to scores in the crowd whom he recognized, was es corted to his carriage. There was no handshaking, the committee having deemed' It desirable to eliminate that feature. Greeted by Family. At his carriage the President met Mrs. Roosevelt and his children, who had driven from Sagamore Hill to join his welcome home. The Oyster' Bay Roo?velt club marched to the station headed by a band, and participated In the greeting, but as the demonstration was purely non-partisan the club took no further action. The band played "Hall to the Chief" as the President entered his carriage, and a party of men in"" a field near the station fired giant' crackers and a small brass can non In noisy welcome. Route Hung With Flags. With Mrs. Roosevelt and his children the President drove Immediately to his Sagamore Hill home. The entire route, three miles, was hung with American Hags. The President expects to remain in Oyster Bay until July 2S, when he will return to Washington for two or three weeks. He will keep In close touch with official affairs, and will transact business very much as he transacts It In Washington. The cleri cal force which will occupy the execu tive olfice in Oyster Bay this summer Is much larger than It has been in pre vious summers. Has Confidence of His Party St. Petersburg Novosti Comments on Political Situation in the United States. ST PETERSBURG, July 2. The No vosti, In an article on tle political situation In the United States, Bays: "Thcro Is no doubt that President Roosevelt has gulncd tho confidence and sympathy of tho wholo Republican party by his strength of character and his fear lessness In conlllct with all kinds of abuses In the shady sldo of Amorlcan life. Thankn to his personal efforts. Congress will voto to increase the American navy so that In a short tlmo the United Slates vIU occupv the second place among tho powers. A3 a loader of Imperialism, Mr. Roosovelt sometimes goes to extremes. The Novosti then cites President Roose velt's letter regarding Cuba, and con cludes its article thus: "This letter com pletely alters the political programme, creating tho 'Roosevelt doctrine.' It has. been violently criticised, but Its funda mental Idea Is correct. If tho United States should go from words to acts, South America would find Itself under a protuotornte by tho United States."

Without a Peer . in Any Navy This the Statement of Builders of U. S. Cruiser Colorado After' Unofficial Trip. DELAWARE BREAKWATER, Del., July 2. On the unofflcal builders' trip today tho United States armor-id cruiser Colorado achieved a maximum speed over a measured courco of 22.31 knots an hour, tho averago of two runs under forced draught being at tho rate of 22.10 knots an hour. This re sult is highly gratifying to tho builders, ha tho requirements of the contract wcro oxceeded In ovcry respect Experts on board predicted after tho run that tho Colorado would averago not less than 22',j knots on tho official trial trip, nnd thus oxcecdlng tho contract speed requirement by at least one-half knot. In speaking of tho result of tho test Vice-President Edwin A. Cramp of tho Crump Shipbuilding company said: ' Tho pe.-formnnco of the machinery was per fect In overy reapecL The Nlcalusso boiler, about which there hns been so much controversy, performed Its func tions admirably. The model of the ship is so excellent that at thu top speed there was a remarkable absence of waves both at the bow and at tho stern. Another no ticeable feature of tho trial was the en tire absence of vibration at all spouta. The results altO-ether show the Colorado to bo without ji peer In tho American navy or any other navy " Tho weather conditions wero Ideal and everything fnvorcd good results generally. A number of naval experts were on board and they wore all enthusiastic re garding the performance of the Colorado. They predicted that on tho official trial the results would be even more gratifying than those accomplished today. Tho of ficial trial vlll rrobably tako place about tho mlddlo of September. Tho ship will leave for Philadelphia to night, and It Is expected that sho will bo at her dock at Cramp's ship yard tomor row night. Ho French Embassador to the Vatican Post Has Practically Been Abolished, Owing to Action of Budget Committee. ROME. July 2. The news that Franco has practically abolished tho post of Embassador to the Vatican ow ing to tho action of the budget com mittee of tho Chamber of Deputies in suppressing the appropriation for tho em bassy, has produced the gravest pre occupation at Ihe Vatican, ns the In evitability of a definite rupture Is now clearly seen. Tho only hope stllf enter tained is tho fall of Premier Combes's Ministry, in which the papal nuncio at Paris, Monslgnor Lorenzolll continues to believe, saying that the opposition to the Cabinet Is growing on all sldos. The general feeling here Is that Loren aelll has proved himself to bo unadapted to fill the Important post. Consequently regret Is expressed at tho fact that ho has not ben, removed fiom Paris before this. The main charge against him was that he was too anxious to keep on good terms with the Waldeck-Rousseau Cabi net, thus alienating the sympathy of tho Conservatives. o when tho policy of tho Government against the congregations was pushed vigorously tho nuncio found himself without friends. Tho situation at the nuncio became worso under Premier Combes, and since the recall of M. Nlsard from the post of Embassador to the Vatican, his position has been even more embarrassing, his presence In Paris doing more harm than good. Ho did not ask to remain, but the Vatican authorities would not recall him, so as to be ablo to ray that they did everything possible to avoid a rupture. According to later advices received at the Vatican, Premier Combes has ex pressed his firm Intention to abandon tho Prlmo Ministry within a few months, considering that his programme for tho suppression of the congregations and tho reform of public Instruction has been carried out. Added to this reason. Pre mier Combes refused before tho Parlia mentary committee to express tho opinion of the Cabinet regarding the separation of church and state and tho abolition of the embassy accredited to tho Vatican, which he wishes to leave to the succeed ing Ministry. Young Men Strike for Cheap Dances Rofuso to Tread a Single Measure Unless Ball Tickets Are Re duced tos 35 Cents. Special to Tho Tribune. SANTAQUIN, July 2. Rather a novel Incident was the cause of the closlnir of Hudson's dance hall last nlcht, much to the dis gust of the young women of this place. Everybody expected a good time at the first ball since the sheep-shearers returned home. The Ice cream parlors were In full blast; the music was ex cellent and the belles of the town an ticipated an enjoyable time. But the young men went on a ntrike for cheaper rates for ball tickots. The regular ticket has always been 60 centa and they demanded a reduction of 15 cents, or no dance. The manager would not listen to any lower prices, so In" spite of the flno orchestra and the pret ty girls In their most stunning gownB, none of the young men would dance. Finally Mr. Hudson, the owner of the hall, stepped out on the floor and an nounced a "fi'eo danco tonight." Then the strikers grew Indignant and tossed tho half-dollars In every direc tion, but rofuscd to dance, and tho hall was closed. Some forty or fifty girls wont home disgusted at tho moanncss of the young men .who had disappointed thoni, Parker Cleveland, Gorman ; ; and Ofcey in Democratic Race . 11 ( Former Senator David B. Hill. SMART 1PEI KTKTIK Delegates to St. Louis Put int. Favorite Son Deals Cause Them to Become Un usually Restless. Former Senator Cannon Gives His View of tho Situation as It Now Is. ST. LOUIS. July 2. All the men who will decide the Presidential con test have not yet appeared In the convention city, but among those who are here there seems to be a con viction that Judge Alton B. Parker will be nominated early in the balloting. His most radical supporters claim that he will be named on the first ballot, while others say that favorite sons must be first complimented before the necessary two-thirds will vote for him. Claims that will not bo disputed' In au thoritative quarters Is that Mr. Parker will have a good majority on the first ballot and from States which will com pel speedy recognition In the conven tion. . , Frank Cannon's Position. "I don't contend for a reaffirmation of the Kansas City platform." said Former Senator Cannon, chairman of tho Utah delegation, who eight years ago In this city walked out of the Re publican convention because of its re pudiation of blmotallsm. Continuing, he added. "I have not changed my principles, and a failure of the Demo cratic party to specifically relndorso any one plank of any ono platform does not indicate that the party has changed. I .only say that we want a platform broad enough for all Demo crats to sand on, and If we get that I shall be satisfied. Idealist though I am, I do not want any more rainbow chasing. Of that we have had enough We want a candidate who can lead and with such a candidate and a platform dealing with the live questions of tho day wo will have a chance to put some of our doctrines Into laws, which is more Important than a century of ab stract theorizing." Mr. Cannon la a supporter of Senator Gorman, but his delegation is divided !n their prefer ences. . Hearst Forces Arrive. The arrival of the California and oth er delegations from the West which are undor Instructions to vote for Hearst, stirred the atmosphere early In the day. and there was some specu lation as to what strength Hearst ac tually had In the convention. The claim of Hearst managers of more than onc-thlrd of thu delegates and with power enough to prevent the selection of any eandidato not, satisfactory to Hoarst is not seriously considered by friends of Parker. The Hearst men have decided to have tests of strength before tho platform Is voted upon and will force a vole by putting forward a candidate for permanent chairman. Several Dark Horses. During the day there has been talk of Cleveland, Oorman, Olney and Harmon. It seems to be understood that Ohio Intends to cast a complimentary vote for Harmon, and that Parker wjll then get the delegation, with a. proviso that Gorman appearing as an actlvo candi date would materially change the con ditions. The only real active and posi tive Gorman force at St. Louis now Is Henry G. Davis, Former Senator from West Virginia, and he Is not sure that Gorman will be a candidate. It Is not even known whether Gorman will at tend the convention. Something was expected to develop about Gorman's position upon the arrival of James M. Guffey. but the Pennsylvania leader did not say anything that Indicated that the Maryland Senator would be a factor In the Presidential race. Olney Is Suggested. Now and .then there Is a mention of Former Secretary Olney, and connected with the suggestion that Olney Is the only man intimately connected with the last Democratic administration, or who Is being put forward by the con servative element who it not objection able to Mr. Bryan. So far no one has appeared as Bryan's representative to confirm or deny this report, but it is said that in case of the balloting be ing prolonged Olnoy would receive the first accessions from the Bryan men, who prefer the Massachusetts man to Parker. Smarting Under Instructions. It Is apparent that quite a. number of delegates are smarting under Instruc tions for favorite sons. They feel that they are thus debarred from taking part In the making of a Presidential candidate unless there should be a pro longed struggle. . There was Increased activity tonight, caused by the arrival of prominent New Yorkers, headed by Former Sen ators Hill and Murphy. Quite an effort has been made to create the Impression that William F. Sheehan and not Hill Is the real rep resentative of Parker. This Is for the purpose of meeting the frequent charge that Parker Is "Hill's man." But Uio arrival of Mr. Hill and the many calls made upon him Indicate that he Is, at least, the political head of the Parker movement. . Considering Platform. While the Presidential situation Is the most Interesting feature of the anti convention days, the platform is a sub ject of debate and serious considera tion. Many suggestions have already been made, but not one can say which will meet the most favor. Some of the delegates think the platform will en gender the greatest contest of the convention.
