IBr TELEGRAPH TO 1ltE TRIBUNE J

Washington. Sept. 1.-The vigorous measures
taken by the United States to prevent Interrupt
ton of the worlds commerce in this hemisphere,
as shown at Panama in Venezuela and in Hayti
in the last few months. taken in connection with
the Presidents recent positive and frequent re-
iterations of the Monroe Doctrine as applicable
to the conditions of the present time, receive
added significance from the publication to-day
at the Navy Department of mailed report
from Commander McCrea, of the MaChiaS, an
officer in whom the highest confidence is re-
posed. and whose discreet yet forcihle, actions
10 prevent insurreCtonary interference with
international trade have been commended more
than once by the administration in the last six
months
The important disclosure is made in this re
port that at least six European nations have
contided the protection of their interests for the
time being at least, wholly To- the United States
naval force in Haytian waters, and that this
government has not shirked the responsibility.
Commander McCrea's attitude toward the in
surgent Admiral killick, revealed in his let
ters is regarded significantly indicating the
adoption of a stronger policy than has hereto
fore been pursued in the treatment OF these
Latin-American disturbances.

TO SEARCH FOR BALDWIN
PLANS FOR AN EXPEDITION TO THE
ARCTIC REGIONS.
Relief Ship to Sail from TrOmsOe on
July Nv. :. Champ to BE
in Charge.

NEW YORK. April 2S-Plans for the
auxiliary Baldwin-Zeigler expedition to
northern polar regions have been COM
pleted, and the men who have been in
trusted with its direction and management
will shortly leave for Europe. The steamer
Frithjof, which with the America conveyed
the Baldwin party to Franz Josef Land,
has been chartered for the work, and will
depart from Tromsoe July 1. The auxil-
iary expedition will be in charge of w. S.
Champ. secretary to William Zeigler, who
will sail for Europe on the steamship GYM
ric on May %, and the remainder of the
party will leave on the steamship Pretoria
on June Z. Mr.. Champ and all of his as
sistants have had experience in the arctic
regions. The Frithjof will again be COM
manded by Captain Kjedsen, whose work
in the arctics has been conspicuous. The
Frithjof will go from Tromsoe 20 Camp
Zeigler, on Alger island. which is in longi-
tude so and latitude "a north, and there Sc
cure the last instructions left by Baldwin.
1t is believed here that Baldwin has
worked to the northwest of Alger island.
and that the America is fast in the ice
When the America is found an effort will
be made to refill her bunkers with coal and
work her out of the ice pack. 1t is thought
that Baldwin used the America for winter
headquarters and worked north with
sledges, establishing caches preparatory for
the dash to the pole.
Baldwin's associates here are of oninion
that he began his northern movement for
the pole about the middle of February and
that he will reach the highest point abOut
the middle of June. and the Frithjof expe-
dition is timed to meet him. Baldwin has
always believed that he would find a drift
that would take him out by way of Green
his return will be across the ice toward
Franz Josef Land. Mr.. Champs plan. after
releasing the America, will be to establish
a patrol with the hope of picking up the
Baldwin party. II is planned 10 cover a
stretch of $50 miles east and west across
the route most likely TO be taken by Bald
win.

larger than any heretofore authorized by
Congress, and the plans recommended by
the board Of construction have already ex-
cited the favorable comment of the naval
authorities abroad. The committee is of
opinion that in recommending the above
naval programme, II Is making a substan-
tial and healthy increase of our navy,
which will meet everywhere with popular
favor"
Other interesting features Of the bill are

recommend site for a naval training sta
uon at some point on the great lakes; an
increase Of the enlisted force of the navy

ration as reported by a naval board; an in
crease of the number of cadets at the
Naval Academy by 500.

appropriation bill carries s77. .65p 3S6 which
IS slightly below the appropriation adopted
last year. Some of the main items in this
total are the following: Pay of the navy

appropriated, or about one-third of what

The Navy Department made estimates
for naval station at San Juan, Porto
Rico, to cost S2,613 900; but the committee
report that ut would be wise not to pro-
vide for any naval station in the West
Indies until we have more definite knowl-

of officers sufficient TO officer the new ships
