GRADUATES ANNAPOLIS
A Large Gathering In 'Attendance
Upon Exercises.
Annapolis, Md., May 2. The large
crowd assembled today from every
part of the United States was proof
sufficient of. the great Interest which
the navy inspires. The chapel of the
naval academy was not large enough
to seat all the spectators and the
crowds were compelled to wait out
side. Finally when the diplomas
were delivered from the bandstand
the crowd which surrounded outside
of the ropes wore eight deep. In de
livering the diplomas President
Roosevelt made a brief address con
gratulating the cadets upon their
graduation and dwelling upon the
importance of their future, duties and
responsibilities. M:r. Moody, the new
secretary of the navy, aslo was pres
ent and made a few remarks to the
graduates.
Today's graduating class numbers
59 cadets. In the course of the ordi
nary procedure the class would not
have graduated until June, but the
dearth of commissioned officers in
the navy caused the advance date to
be set. The addition of the 59 new
ensigns will greatly relieve the bu
reau of navigation in its eflorts to
obtain enough commissioned officers
to discharge the duties devolving
upon them at sea. The new ensigns
are ,of course, without experience
and cannot be assigned to important
and responsible duties afloat, but
they will relieve others who have
had some experience and who can
in turn assigned to some more im
portant duty than that upon which
they have been engaged.

tion of the Travelers' Protective as

der, and after addresses of welcome
had been delivered ,and responded to
the convention took up the transac
Won of business. The report of Sec
retary H. F. Schroeder of Milwaukee
showed that the Wisconsin division
has made gratifying gains in member
ship during the last year. The re
ports of the treasurer and other offl
cers and standing committees were
likewise of a gratifying nature. The
convention will continue tomorrow
and conclude with a banquet in the
evening.

try, for When Navy Fails, Defeat,
With Its Bitterness, Comes.
Annapolis, May 2. President Roos
evelt, his daughter, Miss Alice, and a
number of naval officials, arrived
here today to attend the graduating
exercises at the naval academy. The
presidential party were received by
Superintendent Wainwright and im
mediately repaired to his residence.
After the diplomas had been award
ed, President Roosevelt addressed
the cadets. He said:
"With you almost above any
others of the entire union, rests our
place among the great nations of the
world; that some day it may depend
upon your preparedness, knowledge
and courage, whether or not this na
tion is agaiji to write her name on
the world's roll of honor or to know
the shame of defeat. If the navy fails
us In time of war, which I hope will
never come, then we are doomed to
defeat and there is no hope."
