Bearing the greetings of the new world to the old. the greal sea tight j ers of the Atlantic Reel were today 'started on their way to the |>orts of I the sunny Mediterranean. Nine boiu j bre-garbed war machines carrylug ! thousands of American fighting men j and sallortnen, received the final notj I of farewell from the trkm yacht l>ol phin, beating Assistant Secretary of the Navy Franklin '.). Roosevelt, and slid slowly out botwoon the protect Bapes into the open sea?the course duo east. As the creeping gray forms melted Into the shadows of the horizon the crackling wireless Hashed the last word from the assistant secretary of the navy, acting as representative of the president, coininandei-ln-chief of the navy. "in sending yon as representatives of the United Stat-s navy of today, we hope to show to the old world that the achievements and traditions of the past are being sustained and carried forward to a still more splen did future. Good luck, ami God speed." Will Heilert Honor. "The fleet thanks you for your parting words and will do its utmost to reflect honor upon the country and the service." In battle forma; ion the ponderous Kiev shapes slid by the trim little yacht, laying to Just inside the capos. Straight down the channel, grey hulk after grey hulk, crept by, the crow lining the rail at quarters, marines and hands on parade. First came the big Wyoming. America's latest word in war craft, her bow sliding through the water, upturning a sheaf of farm. At her masthead fluttered the blue double-tarred Hag of tho command ing rear admiral. But two ship lengths behind, and directly In her j wake, the Arkansas, flagship of the prst division, under Ural Admiral Mnmeron Meli. Winslow, stole along. Then at exact Intervals followed the Utah, Florida, tho Delaware, the Kansas, the Vermont and Ohio, in their wake signalling "engine trou ble," I im pod tho Connecticut. Rear Admiral Frank E. Beattic's flagship, flags out announcing bor "out of posi tion." At last the little sea tug Son or;i scurried by and the fleet w;is on its way. \ fow miles out the supply ships and colliers with the hospital ship Solace, which had steamed out of the roads ahead of tho formal ro ! view, awaited the Heel's coining. Bit) of Leave Taking, The fleet headed to open sea after n day of leave taking and naval cere monial. Assistant Secretary Roosc Voll in the Dolphin reached the roads in the early morning. A swarm of launches ami whnlo'boats scurried abou! over the qulol waters, hurrying the laggards of the "shore watch" In ship, carry wives and sweethearts out to the big ship soon to take their loved ones down to the sen, getting the last shore mail aboard, and gen erally getting the lb et shipshape for . tho cruise. From the dawn until noon tho little boats darted here and there among the giant steel war vi ssels that swung in double column aero the fairway. Shortly alter the Dolphin arrived and was given its1 salute by the flag ships. Assistant Secretary Roosevelt ' received tho admirals commanding ; the vessels of the fleet, in >i- i i lit with the full ceremonial of naval vis its at sea. blaring trumpets, booming cannon, and band playing. Rear Ad miral Badger came first, then Rear Admiral Win low and'Beaule. After ' they had paid their respects, Roar '. Admiral Clifford .1. llOUsh, com...;.a I . ing tile*third division of the Atlantic licet, came aboard rrom tho Rhode I Island.
