THE FLYING SQUADRON.
Where IL It's Real Destination? A Dues.
ton Causing Anxiety.

London, January 1s.-Tbe United
Press has repeatedly thrown doubt on the
statement that the new flying squadron,
which went into commission on Tuesday
last, was destined for service in Turkish
waters, as was reported here, and it was
not believed by those who were closely
watching the course Of events that there
was any intention on the part of the
government to send the feet to DelaQoa
bay in connection with the Transyaal
troubles Notwithstanding the fact that
no official confirmation can be had of the
report that the squadron will go to Ber-
muda there is scarcely doubt that if it
does not go there, its orders will take it
to the West Indies. Some inkling of Rear
Admiral Dale's instructions has certainly
transpired. Report says that the fleet
will proceed to either Bridgetown, Bar
BADGES or Port OF Spain, Trinidad. which
lies directly north of Venezuela. The
Officials of the admiralty when questioned
Oh the subject protest that they are in
entire ignorance Of where the squadron
will be sent, but it can be stated that
within the admiralty circles it Is taken
that, AS it has bsen decided to send the
vessels to the southwest, their course will
be somewhere near Venezuela. The
squadron is commissioned for three years,
and it is not intended that it shall be
stationed long at any one point. As the
trouble over the emperor's attitude on
the Transvaal question appears to have
been plaoated the Conservative papers
no longer associate the flying squadron
with demonstration against Germany
and they carefully avoid using the word
"dem onstration' in connection with the
dispute with the United States, which
dispute has again become the leading
anxiety

GERM ANY MUST ARM.

Significant Speech Made by the Young
Emperor.
Berlin, January 1S.-At banquet in
White Hall and the adjoining Elizabeth
roolns this evening on the occasion of
the celebration in honor of the founding
Of the German Empire, Emperor William
made short speech in which he dwelt
upon the events that have led to the
foundation of the empire. The wonder
full development of the empire, he said,
was now respected, If not loved, by the
council Of nations. Such a comm nding
position had brought duties in addition
to rights. If Germany desired to retain
her position in Europe, she must be
armed SO as to be able to support her
voice on sea as well as on land. It was,
therefore, imperative that she should
complete her naval ornaments and in
crease her feet. The speech is admitted
ON all sides to have been carefully
prepared state manifesto and dignified
and pacific document.
