Commodore Kautz Saws They VIII Re-
main With the Pacific Squadron.
Chicago. Oct. lathe Chronicle
says: Contrary to public belief, the
battle-ships Oregon and Iowa, recently
ordered to sail from New York to Hon
olulu, are not destined to reinforce
Dewey's feet, says Commodore Albert
Kautz, the newly appointed command
er of the Pacific squadron to succeed
Admiral Miller.
Commodore Kautz is in this city on
his way to the Pacific coast. There is,
he SAYS, little likelihood that the ves-
sells would 60 to Oriental waters this
year. He declared they would remain
part of the Pacific squadron.
One or more of the great sea scourges
will probably be maintained perma-
nently in Hawaiian water, ready to sail
at an instant's notice to the Philip
pines, but. the commodore is of the
opinion that no further reinforcements
will be necessary.
