(Unitj^ Press Tolegraph-Cablo Servlco.)
Washington, Mar. 14? Late this afternoon Secretary
of the Navy Meteall made a public announcement that the
fleet of war vessels under command of Admiral Evans now
engaged in target practice at Magdalena bay will be de
tailed to make the complete circle of the earth, by way of
the Suez canal. The fleet will start from San Francisco
about the sixth of July. It will go to Honoululu, Samao
the Philippines, thence to Austrailia.
From Australia the fleet will return notrh touching at
Ceylon, and thence through the Suez canal, Port Said,
into the Mediterean. Stops will be made at the principal
ports enroute returning to New York.
It is understood that the cordial invitation of Australia
and the desire expressed in it to form a better under
standing and closer relationship between the two countries
is primarily responsible for this spectacular program, the
like of which the world has never seen.
The United States, it is conceded, could not accept
the invitation to go so far out of its own territory to visit
one foreigu port without giving rise to comment so that, in
a desire to accept the invitation, so cordially extended and
of which far reaching effects are to be expected, this pro
gram of sailing round the world was envolved. The ques
tion of visiting Japan has been discussed but has not yet
been decided.
The fleet with this new interest added to it, will no
doubt be the object of more extended festivities upon the
occasion of its visit to San Francisco. It is also said it will
likely sail up the coast as far as Puget Sound after leaving
San Francisco. It will, however, make Its departure for
the great cruise from the Golden Gate.
Washington, Mar. 13, 8 p. m.? It is announced that
Japtain Richard Wainwright will undoubtedly succeed Ad
niral Evans in command of the fleet when it takes up its
;ruise around the world.
