Sept. 3.—Labor men from all over central New York gath ered at Syracuse today to participate In the welcome which the Central Fed eration of Labor, extended to William Randolph Hearst. It was the greatest demonstration that has ever been held In (his city, and It Is pstlmaled that fully 50.000 people took part In It. Air. Hearst, accompanied by a num ber of prominent New Yorkers, mem bers of the Independence League, ar, rived at 5 a. m. In a special car at tached lo the regular New York Cen tral train. The parly was met at the depot by Chairman Williams, of the Labor Day committee, and went to the Vanderbilt hotel. After breakfast Mr. llrarst was escorted to the Alhambra, where the proceedings -of the day were held. Women in Escort/ Mr. Hearst’s escort consisted of the carpenters’ union of COO members. 35 women delegates In Ihe central trades and labor assembly, and the 180 mem bers of that body, representing Ihe (2 labor unions of Syracuse. The appear ance of the women labor delegates was a unique feature of Ihe parade lo tho Alhambra. Chairman Williams de clares It Is the most remarkable out pouring In Ihe history uf Ibis section of the stale. In his speech, Mr. Hearst said In part: “My friends, this Is the day set asldo In honor of Labor and In recognition of Labor's primary Importance In the greatness of this country. I feel eon- fldent that Labor Day will become a national American holiday. “Hail to the Workers!" ■'Hall to the workers.

But I believe Amer ican labor should be protected against the high protectionists who use the proteotlvo tariff to build un monopo lies and use those monopolies to In- crease the cost of living and control the demand for "labor at a low rate of wages. "I believe American labor should be protected egnlnst Chinese labor and against Ihe entering wedge of Oriental conditions. I believe there should be 'no protection for oppressive trusts.' believe Ihe tariff should be modified and public ownership Inaugurated, but that both should be done cautiously nnd conservatively with due regard to ihe stability of business Interests and the perpetuation of the prosperity on which we all depend.

In my opinion, It U a matter of paramount Importance to the public Interest that thle court should be eatnbllahed, and I have feared that any agitation of the personnel of said court before He creation wa* prema ture and might haxard the succeaa of the meaaure. In view of the announce ment of other candidates, however, end the possibility that the Democratic convention which meet, at Macon next Tueiday may deem It wlee to take aome action looking to the election or nomination of judges, I have decided that It would be proper for me at this time to make answer to your requeat.

Is an honor that I deeply prise and will ever gratefully cherish. While always Interested In public questions and a loyal member of the Democratic party and on earnest ad vocate of Its principles and Its stand ard-bearers, I have never offered for public position before the people. 1 frankly confess to you that I have an ambition to serve tho state In a judi cial capacity, and relying upon your estimate of my fitness for the position, I now submit my name to the voters of the Democratic party for one of the three Judgeships qf the court of ap peals, If In their wisdom they should see proper to create such court.

I make this announcement subject to any action which the Democratic par ty may take, either through the con vention In Macon or by direction of the Democratic executive committee of the state. It will not be possible between now and the election for me to meet In person all the Democratic voters, and I beg that each one will consider this announcement as a personal re quest for his support and Influence.

New York, Sept. 3.—The biggest nav al review In the history of the United States took place today at the entrance of Long Island Sound just off President Roosevelt's home at Oyster Bay. One of the smallest crowds that ever gathered to witness such an event was present owing to the peculiar arrange ments made by orders of the president, and thousands who did go down to Oy ster Bay saw little more than puff* of smoke on the horizon. Fog Hangs Over Water, The gray, lowering skies with heavy fog hanging low on the water made the conditions even worse than they normally would have been for the people who Journeyed down to the Long Island south shore. When the ships “dressed'' at S a m„ there was only a handful of people to witness the stirring light. An excursion fleet numbering most of the steam vessels from New. York and from Connecticut and Rhode Is land ports had gathered early In the vicinity of Oyster Bay, but the men, women and children crowding their decks were doomed to disappointment to tar as seeing the review or even the fleet Itself In some cases. Kspt Out of “Lines.” None of the excursion fleet was per mitted within the ''lines,” and from that distance the fog eerved as a cur- tala For those who could see {he war ships they presented a formidable up- penrnm® In spite of their holiday garb of gay pennons. They were anchored In a parallel line, all In command of Rear Admiral Evans, who had under him 15,236 men and 811 officers all In their smartest rigs lining the decks and the lighting tops as the ships were “dressed.” Tho great squadron as It lay at anchor numbered forty-six of the most powerful of lighting machines afloat. They mounted 1,178 8, 8 or 13-Inch guns. A flotilla of torpedo boats flank ed the battleships and armored cruls ere and auxiliary vessels and a troop ship was also In position. Guns 8alute President. It was promptly at 10:45 o’clock that the auxiliary cruiser Mayflower, also known as the president's yacht, sent forth her signal and the pennant of the president of the United States was run up to the peak. President Roosevelt with Secretary Bonaparte had arrived on their launch. In a moment more the Mayflower had her anchor up, left her position near the head of the bay and steamed toward the entrance of the sound and the beginning of the lino of war ves sels. As the president's vessel rounded the lighthouse point the signal was given from Rear Admiral Evans' flag ship. the Maine, to "begin firing.'' Every batleshlp, armored cruiser, torpedo boat anil auxiliary made ready. In a moment more there was half a hundred vivid flashes of light from as many vessels, half a hundred rever berating crashes thundered out and the salute to the president—twentyipne guns from every ship—was begun. Terrific Din Follows. The din outrlvalled the thunder thaj accompanied the storm of the early morning before daybreak. It was greater than that of the average naval battle. But the general salute of twenty-one guns from the fleet entire did not end the shooting. As the Mayflower pass ed down the line of huge fighting machines each vessel separately boom ed out another presidential salute of twenty-one guns. The salutes became Indistinguishable and the general bom bardment was begun all over again. This was the review Itself, the May flower bearing the president, officials and guests passing elowly down past each vessel with Its blue Jackets and marines at "present” as the command er-fn-chlef passed and the officers as luting. Ceremony Proceeds Slowly. It took more than half an hour for the individual salutes of the vessels to be completed and the rest of the cere mony proceeded slowly. The whole ceremony lasted more than an hour and a quarter, so that It was high noon before the president on the Mayflower was ready to anchor at the head of the squadron. Following the Mayflower assuming her position with the splash of her anchor there wa* a little commotion on the batleshlp Maine and Rear Admiral Evans and Captain Plllsbury, his chief of staff, descended to their launch and steamed over to the Mayflower to pay his formal respects.
