REVIEW OF UNCLE SAM'S BATTLE FLEET 



*' %*? 



A gala week on the 

 Hudson River at 

 New York. Here 

 the United States 

 fleet of battleships, 

 dreadnoughts, tor- 

 pedo boats and de- 



stroyers, as well 

 as the flotilla of 

 submarines and 

 submersibles was 

 assembled for re- 

 view during the 

 week of May 8th. 



The majestic fight- 

 ing ships, supple- 

 mented with a gor- 

 geous array of 

 palatial private 

 yachts, presented a 

 spectacle against 



the picturesque 

 New York skyline 

 that will long be 

 remembered by 

 visitors to the re- 

 view.
