Will Take Torpedo FlotI||a
to the Philippines.
Naval Officials Confident They
Can Make Trip in Safety.
Boats Only About One third Size Of The
Destroyers Taken Around.

Washington. June 12-The navy de-
partment has been notified that the lit
tie fleet OF torpedo boats which has
been gathered at Norfolk for the pur-
pose of being sent out to the Philip
/ pines has been completed so far as the
constructors and engineers are con-
cerned and the boats are now 10 be put
! through course of trials to ascertain
any weakness or faults so that these
may be corrected on the home station
| at minimum expense. These trials Will
probably occupy ut least four months.
| There are also some problems TO be
| solved in the voyage of these little
| boats across the four seas upon which
| the famous cruise eastward of Com
| mander Chambers mosquito fleet
| throwns no light. That fleet was made
up Of torpedo boat deStroye,S. much
| larger beats Than these about to be
| sent overland consequently with much
greater steaming radius, the most i'm
portant consideration on such a Voy-
| age.
The boats of the new feet are all
simple torpedo boats, the Bagley, Bar
| ney. Billie. Tinsey, Thornton and Shu-
brick, averaging in displacement only
| about 1G5 tons, or Il little more than
third Of the dcstroyers. So it is believed
that it may be necessary to assist the
little boats by towing them when their
coal supply runs low and the weather
| Is such that they cannot be coaled from
the conveying ship, and experiments
will be made before the feet sails, to
determine the ability of the conveying
ship to handle the boats on a towing
line. After the experience of the first
fleet and of Commander Hosley with
the dry dock Dewey the naval officers
believe that they can accomplish al
most anything in that direction.
