Assistant Secretary of the Navy Roosevelt informs Charles Dana, the editor of The Sun, that a torpedo-boat flotilla will assemble at Staten Island on September 29 and 30. If Dana’s son, Paul Dana, wants to attend and get a close-up, he can contact W. W. Kimball or John C. Fremont. Roosevelt can also make similar arrangements for a newspaper representative.
