| Summary: | 'This picture of the pride of the United States Navy was made on the occasion of the Peace Jubilee in New York City, and was taken from a tug passing the warship on its way up the North River. The entire crew are on deck, and a beautiful view of this wonderful craft is afforded' -- Biograph picture catalogue. Views on the starboard side of the battleship, U.S.S. Oregon, as she passes a camera which is probably on another ship; her crew is at quarters on her deck; other vessels are visible in foreground. This may be scenes of New York City's welcome to William T. Sampson's fleet after his victory at Santiago Bay, in August 1898.
