For many yeaca his newspaper train ing was as a newspaper reporter and afterwards as a city editor, managing editor and part proprietor of the West lieche Tost, edtted by Carl Schurx. He bought the St. Louis Dispatch tn 187 and united It with the Post, as tho Post-Dispatch, which under his management became In a few yeara one of tho best known and most widely circulated Journals of the country.

The Mayflower will reach the head of the four battleship lines at 10 o'clock. It will anchor for a brief time there to permit the commander of the fleet, Renr-Admlrai Osterhaus. and possibly the division commanders, to go on tard and pay their respects to the Commander-in-Chief of the Navy. Fresldent Taft will return Admiral Os terhaus' visit on board the flagship, tl.s Connecticut. When he la again aboard the Mayflower, the yacht will get under viy and steam up the river through the water lune formed by the 3 3 ""a.. 7 PIJLITZBR. first and second columns of the an chored fleet. This lane Is seven miles long. After the last little tOTpedoboat at the end of the column has paid Its tribute of 21 guns to the President, the Mayflower will turn, and. heading for the south, will steam through the third and fourth columns. Gnna to Roar Continuously. From the time the Mayflower first comes in sight at the beginning of the review until the fleet has picked Its way through the narrows and Is headed out past Sandy Hook the sa luting will be almost continuous and New York Harbor and the city Itself promises to be wrapped for hours tn the pungent white smoke poured from the muzzles of several hundred guns. President Roosevelt In December. 1907. watched the Atlantic fleet get under way for Its trip around the world. The picture then presented was one that has lived long In naval annals of the world. But there were then only 1 ships In the line, and they had the broad bosom of Hamp ton Roads to maneuver In. with miles of water on every side. When the big fleet now assembled In the Hudson River begins to move It will require wonderful skill In navigation . to get It straightened out and headed down channel for the open seas. The review will be an official one In every sense of the word and tho president's fcarty on the Mayflower will be confined to himself. Secretary Meyer, one or two aides and Secretary Hllles. The dispatch boat Dolphin will be taken along beside the Mayflower and will have a party of perhaps 100 on board. OREGON IS FLEET ATTRACTION Maneuvers at San Pedro Wednesday to Be Gala Function.

James, a charge so grave that oo New York newspaper, to our knowl edge, had the moral courage to publish It. The Honorable Joseph Hodges Choate la now stewing in his own grease and slizllng In his own sweat until the day of retribution arrives.
