The cruiser has two engine stacks and American and Japanese flags fly on the masts. Buildings along the shore are visible in the left background. Philadelphia honored the end of the Spanish-American War with the Peace Jubilee celebration from October 25-28, 1898. In addition to war ships, the naval procession included yachts, steamers, tugs, barges, and rowboats. The last warship in the line was the Kasagi, recently built at William Cramp & Sons’ shipyard in Philadelphia. Captain Kashiwabara, with the Japanese officers and crew, lined the deck in full dress.
