sCHLEY MAY GO TO CAPE TOWN
Administration Will Allow Him to Use
 His Own Discretion

Washington, November 1.-The flag of Rear Admiral Schley, commander of the South Atlantic station, will be hoisted to the main truck of the cruiser Chicago on November 14 and few days later that ves- sel will sail. Secretary Long has given no orders to the admiral relating to the divis- ion of the station he shall first proceed to, and leaves it entirely to him to decide whether he shall proceed direct to Monte video, where the squadron usually makes its headquarters, or to the coast of Africa. which is included in the limits of the sta- tion.
 Admiral Schley is understood to be anx- ious that the Chicago shall show her flag with the big fleet now anchored in Dela- goa bay and other African harbors as result of the war between Great Britain end the Boers and the probabilities are that he will go direct across the Atlantic to Cape Town and thence up the coast for a stay of several weeks, and perhaps months, if the war is prolonged. It is stat ed on good authority that the administra tion wishes this programme to be carried out by Admiral Schley, but will not order him to take that course in reaching South America.
 sThe official announcement that this gov ernment had ordered naval force to Af ricanl waters at this juncture, coupled with the well established belief abroad that in the event of combination against Eng land, the United States would be found on the side of the British, would probably cre- ate sensation. The administration is will ing for it to be known that 1t entertains a friendly feeling for Great Britain, and is ready to make a demonstration of this friendship through the presence of Amer- can warships near the scene of the war in Sbuth Africa. It hesitates, however, to or- der Schley to proceed there. Should the admiral exercise his own discretion and sail Ito South America by way of Cape Town the administration could show that np orders were given for this roundabout trip, but that the admiral made it on his ownl responsibility.
 ', There Is not the slightest doubt-in fact, one of the highest naval officials has con .ffned the report-that Secretary Long would like an iftimation conveyed to Ad- miral Schey of the administrations wishes on the subject. There are now assembled in South African waters perhaps 50 war ships of different nations all sent by their governments to watch the progress of events. The presence, therefore, of Ameri- can war vessels need not be regarded as snec ally sionifcan', In view of the large interests this country has in the Transvaa.
 Secretary Long stated today there was no intention at present of sending the bat tleship Texas to the station, or any other ship, unless the exigencies of the service required 1t. He did not anticipate that any necessity would arise for enlarging the squadron beyond three ships-the Chicago, Montgomery and Wilmington.
