HUMANITY FIRST IS PRESIDENTS VIEW IN SPEECH AT NEW YORK New York—President Wilson — the man^on whom fthe eyes of the world are'turned because of the international situation — Tuesday reviewed the At lantic fleet in the Hudson river and at a luncheon tendered to him on shore by the City of New York told a distin guished gathering of navy officers, army officers and civilians what the country and its navy stood for. The great battleships that lay in the river, he said, were “engines to promote the interests of humanity.’’ “The inspiring thing about Amer ica,’’ the President asserted, “is that she asks nothing for herself except what'she has'a right,to ask for human ity itself. LWe want no nation's prop erty; we wish to question no nation's honor; we wish to stand selfishly in the way of the development of no na tion. . . It is not pretension on our part to say that we are privileged to stand for what every nation would like to stand for and speaking for those things which all humanity most de sire.’’ The spirit which brooded over the river, said the President, was “just a solemn evidence that the force of America is the force of moral princi ple, that there is not anything else she loves and that there is not anything else for which she will contend.” The President took occasion in his speech to pay tribute to Secretary of the Navy Daniels, who sat beside him. Although the day was damp and chilly, with occasional downpours of rain, the weather in no away abated the enthusiasm with which New York greeted the head of the nation. In the forenoon he reviewed a land parade of 5000 sailors and marines from the fleet’s 16 battleships, and from the moment he set foot on shore until after the luncheon he returned to the Mayflower to review the fleet, his progress through the streets was a con tinuous ovation, remarked upon by those who accompanied him as the most enthusiastic they had witnessed since the President’s inauguration. He was plainly touched by the welcome accorded him. PORTUGUESE REBELS TAKE GOVERNMENT Revolutionists Are Now in Ful Control of Capital City.

ITALIANS RIOTOUS WITH CRISIS NEAR Attack Is Made on Chamber of Deputies and Members flee. MOB FORMS BtTORf PALACE OF KINO Martial Law Rules Rome While New Cabinet Is Being Formed--* War Fever High. t Rom»— Premier Salandra has insist ed on acceptance of his resignation, and King Victor Emmanuel has en trusted Giuseppe Marcora, president of the chamber of deputies, with the task of forming a new cabinet. If he succeed* in his purpose, the Marcora cabinet will contain represen tatives of all the opposing parties. A report had spread through the city Saturday that the King had refused to accept the resignation of Signor Sa landra. This created an excellent im pression and served to forestall more serious trouble that then seemed im minent. It was asserted that the pop ulation had determined that the night would not pass without such a demon stration of violence as would render the will of the people supreme. The entire garrison had been brought out to protect the most threatened points in the city, such as the streets where the Austrian and German em bassies and consulates are situated, and the Villa Malta, the home of ex Premier Giolitti. The city was divid ed into four military zones, and the keeping of order was entrusted to the military authorities. A riotous crowd during the day in vaded the Piazxa Monte Citorio, in which the chamber of deputies ia sit uated, and smashed windows and doors and destroyed everything it came across. The rioters were about to enter the great hall of sittings when troops intervened. A few of the dem onstrators were wounded. Members of the chamber of deputies who are followers of Signor Giolitti made their escape from the building, some of them leaving their hats be hind. A venerable Garibaldian veter an harrangued the crowd, declaring that Italy must either go to war or the people would bring about a revolution.
