TAFT WITNESSED IT
The Roar of 8aiutlng Guns Awoke the
Echoes of the River as
the Fleet Gath

[United Press Leased Wire Service.]
NEJW YORK, Oct 14.—The roar of
saluting guns echoing and re-echo
ing from the- nature-made cliffs of
New Jersey and the man-made moun
tains and canyons of Manhattan, gave
notice to all within ear shot today
that the greatest naval review In the
history of the United States was on.
The first salute—nineteen guns
from the levithian Connecticut, an
swered promptly by the gunboat Dol
phin as she dropped her mudhook
and 1mke out the flag of Secretary
of the Navy Meyer, came promptly at
nine o'clock and marked the inaugur
ation of a day of ceremony such as is
seldom witnessed in America.
With the boom of the last gun and
almost before the faint vapor of the
smokeless charge had wound lazily
above the m&zzle of the saluting
piece, the admiral's launch was in
the water at the gangway leading
from the Connecticut and Rear Admir
al Hugo Osterhaus, clad in the blue
and gold of his rank, with his com
plete staff, jumped into their places
and the launch sped over to the Dol
phin on whose bridge, clad In immac
ulate morning garb and surrounded
by the officers of the gunboat and
those especially detailed to assist
him, was the secretary of the navy.
The call was of tbe most formal
character. The drums were muffled
as the uniformed officers ascended
the enclosed gangway, there was a
quick handshake and then Admiral
Osterhaus took position at the left of
the secretary, while the squadron
Meanwhile fleet tenders had run to
the pier at the foot of West 79th
street and were bringing to the Dol
phin the members of the house and
senate committees on naval affairs
who were to' participate with the
secretary in the initial review which
preceded the formal review and in
spection by the commander-in-chief,
President Taft.
Meanwhile down in the smother of
fog that masked the entrance to the
harbor just a few rods from the
Ambrose Channel lightship, the presi
dent was resting on board the May
flower. Tossing slowly at the end of
the anchor chain, the president's
craft remained, always In touch with
the big Connecticut by wireless, wait
ing the hour set to sail up the river
and take position at the head of the
fleet.
At 9:10 Secretary Meyer and Ad
miral Osterhaus entered the Connecti
cut's launch and visited the Wyom
ing, latest of America's big gun fight
ing ships. When the inspection end
ed, the secretary returned to the
Dolphin and a few minutes later a
flag from the bridge wig-wagged a
signal and the Dolphin started slow
ly up along the line of anchored ves
sels for the greatest review a secre
tary of the navy was ever permitted
to hold.
Immediately astern of the Dolphin
came the gunboat Nashville with
newspaper reporters, photographers
and invited guests aboard. Then
came the river steamer, Hendrick
Hudson with Mayor Gaynor and the
New York city committee. There was
an interval of a sea mile between the
first three craft and the miscellaneous
collection of vessels that accompani
ed them. Under the rules all craft
had to keep that distance from the
Inspecting vessels and the regulation
was rigidly enforced by the revenue
cutter service.
The inspection ended, the vessels
repaired to the places assigned to
them and at 12:30 the Mayflower,
with President Taft on. board, sailed
up the river to her anchorage off
West 31st Street. On board in addi
tion to the president, were Mrs. Taft,
Miss Taft, Major Rhoada, Mrs. Laugh
lin, Mr. and Mrs. Lars Anderson, Mr.
and Mrs. John Hays Hammond, Mr.
and Mrs. C. P. Taft, Miss Louise Taft,
Mr. and Mrs. Henry W. Taft General
B. F. Tracy, Mr. and Mrs. George D.

William F. McCombs, chairman of
the democratic national committee,
the first witness called before the
Clapp committee today, presented a
detailed list of contributions to Gov

McCombs said he knew nothing of
1904, or 1908 contributions.
"I began th« campaign about June
1, 1911," said McCombs. "It com
menced in my office, and for a month
or so I bore all expenses out of my
own pocket.
"I underwrote the campaign to the
extent of $10,000 myself," said Mc
Combs.
The total contributions were ?193,

McCombs read the list of contri

McCombs said Penfleld's contribu

was going to Europe.
I am responsible for all of the
contributions except $2,000," said Mc
Combs. "I wrote to Mr. Penfleld and
he sent me $2,000 In addition to $10,
000 previously sent. The campaign
was often in financial difficulties.
"The campaign was not financed by
any of the states," continued Mc
Combs, submitting a detailed account
of the entire Wilson expenses aggre

bills amounting to $14,617.

He gave the names of Wilson leaders
in various states who would know of
expenditures.
Senator Oliver asked McCombs re
