THE FLEET AT ANNAPOLIS.
What Secretary Herbert Says i'm Regard to
the Subject.

the subject.
Secretary Herbert is disposed to accommo-
date the people who desire to have some of the
war ships in the naval review visit Annapolis.
He told STAR reporter today that he had not
yet reached a conclusion in the matter, and
naturally could not do SO until he had con-
conferred with Admiral Gherardi as to what
ships would be available for the purpose after
the review. He added that so far as the foreign
vessels are concerned he certainly could
say nothing in advance of their arrival
He said he would like to comply with
the request of the committee
from Baltimore, Annapolis and Washington
which recently waited upon him in the interests
of the people of Maryland, Virginia. West
Virginia, Pennsylvania and the District Of
Columbia. and would arrange to have the ships
visit Annapolis Roads early in Nav If II could
possibly be accomplished. But there were so
many things to be considered in that connec-
tion before anv conclusion could be reached
that il is impossible now TO give any definite in
formation on the subject.
As he said to the committee. there we're i'm
perative reasons why our own vessels should
not remain at home any longer than was abso-
lutelv necessary, as there Was great need of
their services on the Pacific, South Atlantic
and European stations. 1t was therefore likely
that the present feet in home waters would be
reduced to as few as six vessels soon after the
conclusion of the review. These might be
available for cruise to Annapolis. but it was
too early now to promise that they would go
there.
As for the foreign vessels their engagements
with the government ended with the review,
and their future movements depended Alto
gether upon the orders of their own govern
ments. The officers of these ships will be in
vited to visit Chicago, May 1. at the opening Of
the worlds fair. Many doubtless will accept
the invitation. Secretary Herbert said he
would invite the ships to visit Annapolis Roads,
but as to whether any OF them would be able to
accept he could not say. Everything will de-
pend on future conditions. Therefore all he
could say now was that he would do the best
he could under the circumstances
