TO BIND NATIONS.
(Continued from First Page.)
In proposing the toast to "The King,"
Lord Beresford said it was particularly
easy to do so, owing to recent events In
which the King had been a passenger of
peace and good will toward all nations,
Tho Interest ot the whole world favored
peace. He believed the day was coming
when King Edward would be called "The
Peacemaker."
Way Roosevelt Is Liked.
The toast was drunk with enthusiasm.
and then Lord Beresford toasted "Presl
dent Roosevelt," and, asking why the
President was liked In England, he said
"We like the mant we like the strong,
generous man, what I may call the real
human man. The President will do his
level best to bring the two great English-
speaking nations together in harmonious
combine, which Is the same idea King
Edward had on the occasion of his visit
to the President of France. If President
Roosevelt were to come here, I believe the
enthusiasm would be far greater than
in tho case of any reception ever extended
to any visitor from any country."
In proposing the American Navy, Lord
Beresford said that whenever there was
anything disagreeable abroad, Great Brit
aln and America generally drifted togeth
er. If these two nations got together
to maintain their common interests In
commerce, it would make peace for the
world.
"Neither Great Britain nor America
wanted an alliance," said the speaker,
adding, "we want an understanding. Both
Great Britain and America are increasing
their fleets, but that Is no more a threat
to other nations than Increasing the police
of their cities In order to maintain order,
Admiral Cotton, In replying, testified to
the warm feeling existing between the
two nations and their navies, and recalled
Instances where British and Americans
had served together. He thanked the
King and the people of Great Britain for
tho welcome given the Americans. After
the luncheon Ambassador Choate held a
reception at Ills house in honor of the
American officers.
