City Wild With Enthusiasm Heavy
Storm Holds Off.
New York Theodore Roosevelt set
foot on home shores Saturday, June 18,
for the firat time in nearly 15 months.
and received a rousing welcome.
He bore with his usual buoyancy a
day of heavy fatigues, public duties
and private emotions commingled, and
at 4:40 o'clock in the afternoon, after
family reunion at the home of
Theron Butler, grandfather of bia pros
pective daughter-in-law, Miss Eleanor
Butler Alexander, left the city he sur
veyed the same morning from afloat,
reviewed in parade ashore and greeted
by explicit word of mouth, to be wel
corned more intimately by his lifelong
neighbors at Oyster Bay, L. I. As a
private citizen he waa the same out
spoken, vigorous man of word! and
deeds the city of bia birth has known
for 80 veara as assemblvman. ponce
commissioner, assistant secretary of
the navv. colonel of the Rough Eiders,
governor of the state, vice president
and president of the nation, and more
latterly, ambassador to tne jungle ana
monitor to those who sit in the seat
of the mighty.
He had an expansive amile for every-
bodv. a cheery word for "the boys,
his old friends, the newspapermen, pat
anecdotes for the politicians, greetings
of affection for his old command, the
Roocrh Riders, and a auick eye lor
bsolutely everything.
Lvman Abbott he called "partner,
Jacob Riia waa plain "Jake;" Assem
blyman "Paradiae" Jimmy Oliver was
Greeted bv bis nickname; Thomas
Hradv. his old antagoniat in state pol
itics. he greeted jovially, and so it
went down the line.
"Rooaeelt good luck" still followed
bim. Though hot and aultry, the
weather held fair until the marine
parade, the exercises at the Battery j
and the march op Broadway and Fifth
avenue to Central Park had been car
ried through with punctuality and pre
cisionand then it rained great guns.
It cleared again shortly before 5
o'clock in plenty of time to give his
eager fellow citizens of Long Island
ample chance to see him standing on
the rear platform of his special train
be waved them a welcome.
Within a eeneration the nation re
members three great welcomes before
the one of Saturday to General Urant
in San Francisco after his triumphal
tour of the world, following the expir
ation of his two terms as president; to
Admiral Dewey on hia return from the
Philippines, and to William Jennings
Brvan. also after a tour of the world.
The welcome to urant waa tne mosi
tumultuous; that to Dewey was the
most elaborate and stately, but the
welcome to Roosevelt was shot through
with a dramatic expectancy which long
ago found popular expression In the
tvDical Dhrase: "The return from
Elba." .
Grant on his return waa still a polit
ical possibility, but as events proved.
foredoomed to defeat. Admiral Dew
ev waa a hero, not a national leader.
Bryan, prominent aa nia part naa Deen
before the people, had never oeen
trusted by them with executive
nonsibilitv.
Roosevelt had been aometning oi an
these thingsstatesman, and soldier
and sailor, too. . Born in the beat, he
had made an especial friend of the
West. His welcome brought men from
all narta of the country. It waa na
tional.
The first zest of public curiosity haV'
In? been satisfied, speculation now
turns on what share Kooseveit win
take in an acute political situation
within hia own party, of which he had
already been advised abroad by old
associates who had carried mm tidings.
But on that score, speculation must rest
unsatisfied. The Colonel had positive
ly declared hia intentions by wireless
the nieht before.
'I shall have nothing to say wnai-
ever in the immediate future about
Dolitica." and he kept hi. word.
Therefore, there was nothing in the
only speech he made here that could be
construed as applying specincany to
this or that chase of immediate state
or national issues.
