Cordial Welcome
To All
FEWER STATESMEN
(Continued From Page 1.)
was attested by the tremendous
cheering that gretted his remarks.
In private and In nn occasional in
terview tho admiral has freely ex
pressed himself on tho needs of tho
navy, but his unqualified statement
of last night, put ns bluntly as n
blunt man could put It, left no doubt
In the minds of his hearers that tho
famous sailor wants tho American
navy to be the greatest In tho world.
Ho Btnnds squarely with tho Presi
dent on the question of four battle
ships n year, or even more, until
there are not less than 48.
Tho admiral's dramatic appear
ance In the magnificent banquet room
of tho St. Francis was a fitting cli
max to three days of stirring events.
Only n select few know that ho would
come to the bannuet and ibey Euard-
ed their secret well. Tho setting wns
spectacular in tho extreme. Speeches
had been made, toasts had been
drunk when camo a sudden pause.
At tho psychological moment Mayor
Taylor arose and exc'almed:
"Before Admiral Evans Eoe3 to
bed lot us drink his health." In
stnntly .tho banqueten, jumped to
their feet, classes aloft, the wide
doors of tho banquet room were
thrown open and the admiral was
wheeled Into the room by hla faith
ful Bon, Lieutenant Frank Evans.
For nn InBtant silence reigned, so
great waB tho surprise. Tho admiral
smiled a happy smllo nnd then one
of tho banqueters shouted, "Thrco
cheers for 'Fighting Hob Evans."
Tho roar that followed rnnc through
ctt the hotel. Tho admiral was then
whoo'ed between tho two long tables,
the guests standing with outsretched
hand. Mayor Taylor, fairly dancing
with Joy, rushed up to the admiral,
grasped him with both hands and,
then turning to the banqueters, ex
claimed In ringing terms. "Ah, this
is Indeed a crown upon our fete.
Gentelmcn, I present Admiral Ev
ans." Tho ndmlrnl roso up In his chair
with an effort, nnd nftor looking over
tho guests nnd sml'ing p'ensantly, he
snld quickly: "If you gentlemen
will kindly be seated I will talk n
little. Cheers and laughter follow
ed. Expressing regret that ho was
unable to join in the festivities, he
centinued:
"The people nsk mo wlo tho fleet
1b here. My answer Is: 'It Is horo
became I was told to bring It hero.'
I do not think that I nm violating
tho secrets of the government when
I tell you that when I Btnrt?l cut I
w'ob told I was going out on n pure
ly p?nceful cruise, hut that I must
bo proporod to fight If necessary."
Tho admiral spoko of the groat
Improvement In tho navy and thon
took up tho matter of tho armor
belts. Henry Rcutcrdnhl, who start
cd tho armor bolt agitation., vjs
among tho guests nnd to him tho ad
miral directed lib remarks.
"I know Routcrdnhl Is horo to
night," ho said, "but I don't agree
with him. Thoro Is no grcntor fallacy
than that tho lnBiifllcloncy of tho ar
mor bolt. Tho real fact Is that tho
man who shoots straight wins, no
mnttor whether thoro 1h an nrmor
belt or wood, leather or anything
clso."
Tho spenkcr hesitated a moment,
tho muBclcs of his Jaws bulged hla
eyes and flashed, and then, like
thunder bolts, camo tho werds: "If
wo want to presorvo tho peoco of tho
world wo must lmvo plenty of buttlo-
Blilps nnd fewer statesmen."
Choerlng that lasted sovornl min
utes followed and whon tho ndmlrnl
could bo hoard again ho snld:
"Give us tho ships and tho guns
and wo'll do what you want us to
'do."
After telling his audlenco that he
had no words to express his grutltude
for ihe reception accorded him, his
face assumed an expression of sad
ness, his voice fell and with a wave
of tho hand ho said:
"And now, gentlemen, good night
and good bye."
A number of the officers wept when
ineir oeioveu commander uttered his

tnKo immediate stops looking to an1
appointment of Admiral Evans ton

and that ho will uso his best efforts

p'eased over this prospect, and Evans
hopes that If such a position Is cre
ated for htm his health will permit
htm to fill It without much delay.
