WASHINGTON, July 3. President
Wilson returned to the White House
today, tanned by the sun after a three
day cruise on the Mayflower in lower
Chesapeake Bay.
The President went in search of
rest and relief from Washington high
temperatures. He got the recreation
and diversion from his duties, but the
air was thick and sultry at sea as It
was on shore.
The Mayflower cruised out to Vir
g-lnla Capes, anchored one night at
Hampton Roads and steamed up the
York River to historic Yorktown.
There, the yacht dropped anchor and
the .President went on a sightseeing
trip. He visited the Nelson mansion
where Cornwallls made his headquar
ters, and went also to Temple Farm,
where Washington directed the move
ments of the Continental Army. The
President went through the courthouse
at Yorktown while a half dozen court
officials were at work. Not a person
In Yorktown recognized him except a
12-year-old girl.
Girl Remembers Plctirrea.
"I remembered him from his plo
tures," the little girl proudly told her
friends, but before the news had tra
veled far the distinguished visitor was
back aboard the Mayflower.
In accordance with the President's
wishes, all formality was abandoned
on the yacht. The officers aboard
were informed that the President
didn't want any salutes fired or any of
fanfares blown. When he returned to
Washington there was no group of of
fleers standing at attention at the
gangway, as had been the custom.
Dr. Grayson. U. S. N., was his only
companion, not even the secret service
men being along.
The President did not work while
away. He got the regular budget of
news sent out to ships at sea by wire
less, however, and was Informed by.
Secretary Tumulty, who met him at the
dock, of what had occurred in his ab
sence. He listened with interest to
the story of David Lamar's testimony
before the lobby investigating com
mittee and expressed pleasure ovor the
progress the tariff bill was making In
the Senate caucus.
Gettysburg Trip on Today.
When the President returned to the
White House attired In a white flan
nel suit, he stopped for a few minutes
to chat with the correspondents and
retired immediately to his office to
sign commissions and official papers.
He expected to be busy on his corre
spondence most of the evening and
planned to leave early tomorrow for
Gettysburg, Pa., where his schedule
calls for r.n hour's stop and a brief
speech, continuing on to Cornish, N. H.,
by way of New York City.
He is due in Cornish early Saturday.
