The Ameri can battleship fleot, returning to home waterB on ho Pacific coast af ter a cruise of nearly four months around the southern end of the West ern Hemisphere, cast anchor off hero at 12:47 today, thirteen minutes ahead or schedule timo. Tho shores of Coronado Ueach were lined for a in lie or more with sn entinmlantln throng slithered from all over tho West. The day of the flcet'B arrival open ed dark and-tbrealenlng, but by noon tho sky was a sapphire blue. Tho shores of Coronado beach, tho van tage point to view tho coming ships, were thronged all tho morning, spec ial trains, steamers and trolley cars being -taxed to their utmost to handlu the crowds. I l-'alnt films of smoke rising to the' clouds gave tho first indication of the approach of the fleet, and nt 10:30 the flagship at the head of tho ap proaching column could bo mudo out I by powerful glasses, twenty miles away. ' As tho ships passed the Mexican boundary lino the first real American note of welcome sounded. A party ot customs otnriais on duty at iia ju ana hud erected a flagpole on tho shore, and at just tho moment tho Collect leu t crossed the Imaginary lino conforming to the boundary moult ed and the little baud of patriots I gave three lusty cheers. This demon- ' st rut Ion could not riich the ships of; the fleet to gain a response, but tbe! fact did not in any way diminish the enthusiasm of lite partjr.

The ouciiniliig of die Heel was n beautiful sight, and Hie passage of tile vessels to anchorage was accom-i panled by Hie tooting of hundreds of j whistles, the ringing of bells and con-1 slanl hurrahing of thousands gath ered on the bench and elsewhere to view the remiirkable spectacle.

Compres sed Into what would be not more than a len-mluutc speech on the floor of cougrcHH, the president today urged Hint body in a special message to pro vide for the construction of four hut lleshlps of tho largest and most ap proved typo at once. Tho arguments Of the (Innlilent to Impress his Insist ence of the naval program wore few, but calculated -to be effective. China was held up as an example of tho "peace-at-any-prlce" doctrine, anil (ireut llrltaln as having a naval policy to to be emulated. The result of Hie last Hague conference made It plain that the nations would not for some time, If over, agree on a plan of llmllailou of naval armament.
