Gentlemen, I propose the toast ot his excellency, the President of the United States. God bless him and the United States. ; KIEL. Prussia, June 26. Tho dinner 1 given by United States Ambassador Tower to the German Emperor tonight was made I the opportunity both by the Emperor and j tho Ambassador, to utter speeches of po- I lltical significance. Ambassador Tower I said: "It Is with a very great pleasure that I j have been permitted to present to you j Rear-Admiral Cotton and the officers of the United States Navy who accompany him upon this visit to Kiel In response to your Invitation. They come here with I thelr ships of war upon a mission of peace, hrlnsinir with them cordial sentiment of ' friendship from America to Germany. I "I am convinced, sir, that you and your i i return towards the President and people of j the United States. Your Interest in us has prpvedihls' on .many inemomW .occasions.. especially upon uiai oi me visit or JtUH Royal Highness, Prince Henry, who was received throughout the country with demonstrations of hearty and sincere wel come, and who, when he embarked, left behind them the universal wish that he would visit us again. Further Evidence of Friendship. "You have also given proof of.these sen timents in the present you made of mag nificent casts to Harvard University. Mu tual understanding between nations, as between individuals, is best attained by personal Intercourse, which leads to better acquaintance, and It Is a happy outcome of an occasion like this that friends strengthen their friendship which, in the case of two great powers like Germany and the United States, is a benefit to the whole civilization, extension of commerce and the peace of the world. "The closer our acquaintance becomes the more we are sure to discover how near our paths He to each other, how readily we may follow them together, and how much wo have each to gain by the malntalnence of harmony In the future as ; well as In the present and In the nast. 1 America wishes this, sir, with all sin cerity. There are hundreds of thousands of people of German birth or German ex traction living in the United States who look back from their new home with feel ings of tender affection towards their Fatherland. They are among the best of our citizens. They bring with them habits of thrift and Industry and high ideals of domestic life inherited from their ances tors, and which have contributed to make America what It is. These people will rejoice as we all rejoice at the Incidents that are taking place at Kiel and they, as all Americans, will be happy at the as surance we derive from your presence here tonight. "Speaking for the Nation, I have the honor to convey to you the cordial greet ings and hearty good wishes of the Presi dent and the people of the United States." Mr. Tower then proposed the health of the German Emperor, the Empress, the Crown Prince and the members of the Im perial family. Emperor William, speak ing In English, made the following reply: "In responding to your excellency's warm and sympathetic toast, I offer a cordial welcome to the American squad ron, Admiral Cotton and bis officers, in the name of the German people. We look upon them as the bearers of the friendly sentiments of the citizens of the United States, to -which I can assure your excel lency the -whole of Germany heartily re sponds. I am happy that my hopes for a better mutual understanding between our two countries through the personal Inter course t which my brother. Prince Henry, was able to hold with your excellency's countrymen, have been fully realized, and have strengthened the bond! of friendship between Germany and America. "That. my gifts of casts of mediaeval German architecture have been received in so gracious manner by Harvard gives me the greatest satisfaction. I hope that the samples relating to our old history will entice many young students to come over and study the originals and the people who live around them. Closer Relations Heartily Desired. "My slnccrest wish Is that our two peo ple may become closer acquainted. Xo serious citizen In America or Germany, I trust, believes that the harmony and con tinuance of our mutual interests could be disturbed by permanent factors in our relationship. "We are knit too closely to gether to allow of the development of any antagonism. It Is my firmest conviction that the fact of so many thousands of Ger mans living and thriving In the United States, with their hearts still warm with their love of their old fatherland, will ren der the task more easy of smoothing the patch of undisturbed and progressive re lations which are ever of vital importance to our countries. "It Is now my duty to beg your excel lency to thank His Excellency, the Presi dent of the United States, for this Joyous occasion for which we are Indebted to his kindness. Wo all over here admire his firmness of character, his iron will, his devotion to his" country and his indomi table energy and readllv trraun th hnni proffered to us across the sea In cordial friendship, feeling at the same time that J blood Is thicker than water. .

NO AFFRONT Q AMERICA Russia Is Firm in Its Stand Against Interference, ROOSEVELT MADE A SURPRISE It Is Hoped That the President "Will Vet Change His Decision About Presenting the Petition of tae H'nal B'rith. While Russia will show the Ameri can Minister every courtesy when be presents the petition of the B'&al B'rith, asking for better treatment of subjects ot the Cxar, It will refuse to receive the note. Its llrst determina tion to brook no foreign Interference will be strictly adhered tc. Russia retdily admits the sincerity of the United States' decision, and de clines to listen to reports that the for warding of the petition has any ulterior significance or is In any way con nected with any other matters. WASHINGTON, June 26. The Russian government has learned with profound re gret of the intention of the Washington authorities to forward to St. Petersburg a petition from American Jews relative to Russia's treatment of her Jewish subjects. It Is yet .hoped that the United States will oppreclate the Russian view of the case, and will content itself with the kindly ex- Passions of sympathy which It has al- reaay ouerea ior me anair at -n-jsmnei. The Associated Press already has stated tho Russian position regarding what Is considered outside Interference In the in- ternal affalrs o ussIa; P03"0" - - : Preas la urther Permitted to say that Mr. Iddle. ic American Charge, when he Presents the petition at the Russian For- elgn 0fflce vr,n bo recelved wIth tho same cordlalty always accorded an Amei- lca" enV0J'' In "turning the petition to Mr. Riddle, the officials will assure him hat Russia cherishes no Ill-will toward the United States, and that the action it takes with respect to the petition Is neces- Bary In vIew" o Ru83,a's unalterable policy of refraining from Interference In the In ternal affairs of other powers, and In sisting on similar treatment for itself. , The Russian government hopes Its firm ness In the matter will not bo misunder stood, but In view of the announcement of Its position weeks ago, it Is surprised at developments which will force a reiter ation of Its views. Mr. Riddle, It can be stated, will be sub ject to no personal embarrassment In pre senting the petition, and he will be given to understand that the St- Petersburg au thorities appreciate the fact that he is only carrying out his orders. Should the presentation of the petition be deferred until the return to St. Peters burg of Mr. McCormlck, tho American Ambassador to Russia, the same pro gramme will obtain, unless in the mean time the Russian government Is made aware of extenuating circumstances which put the matter in a different light. Indeed, It Is declared Russia would be glad to do anything possible to relieve the tension In the United States. The Rus sian" government readily admits the sin cerity of the American Government's de cision, and declines to listen to reports that the forwarding of the petition has any ulterior significance or Is In any way associated with any other matters.

POU-GHKEEPSIE. N. Y.. June 25. For the first time in years, there were distinct surprises" In the Intercollegiate races hero today. Two crews of practically un known quantities, and. whose coaches had not predicted or had not hoped for them anything better than fourth or fifth places In their respective races, each finished second In the two most Important Taces of the day- The Syracuse University crow-took- such close second honors in tho freshman race that f or the last half-mile It was a serious question whether her boys would not pull to victory. Georgetown University, in the 'varsity race, while finishing a very bad. second to the phenomenal crew put In the raco by Cornell University, walked away from tho other four crews In tho race, old-timers, with the exception of Syracuse, In a manner that made the rowing sharps sim ply throw up their hats for Joy. Columbia Disappoints AH. The Columbia. University crews, from which much had been promised, finished in the worst possible shape, although In the betting. In the general predictions and in the prognostications of her coach Columbia was supposed to have an ex cellent chance in both the four-oared and 'varsity races. As it was, she finished last In the four-oared race, simply beaten out by even Wisconsin, which university had. HOW OTHER. 'RACES RE SULTED. Date. Winner. 1903.. Cornell Time.

In the freshman race she was the fourth crew, and a very poor fourth; Wisconsin was third, with Pennsylvania, from whom nothing had been expected, as her crew had been materially changed In the last few days, a close fifth. In the 'varsity race Columbia finished last, being at least six lengths behind Syracuse, tho fifth crew In the race, and at least four out of her eight men col lapsed In the boat as the finish line was crossed. It Was a Cornell Day. It was, as It has now been for the past four years, a Cornell day. As In last year's regatta. Cornell won all three races, and while only one record was broken. It Is the consensus of opinion tonight that had the Cornell 'varsity crew been pressed the record would have been broken evea in that race. The 'varsity race, as a matter of fact, was a miserable walk-over. Cornell took the lead before the mile point had been reached, and rowed away from, her com petitors so easily that at no time wa3 she ever pressed for the first place. The result "was that in the last mile, where, if pushed, she would have rowed from 31 to 33 strokes per minute, she held a 28 clip almost to the finish, crossing tha (Concluded on Page 6.)
