Willard II. Brownston. This feet
will engage in comprehensive man
euvers, the object of which will be
the protection of the Pacific slope and
our Pacific dependencies in case of
war. 1t is stated authoritatively
there is no connection whatever be-
tween the reorganization of the navy
in the Pacific ocean and the contro-
versy with Japan over the San Fran
cisco school question and the exclu-
sion of the japanese laborers from this
country. Indeed, the general board
of service the president Of which is
Admiral Dewey, has considered for
some time the steps which should be
taken to make more effective the
ships now in the Pacific.
1T is apparent to any one who un-
derstands the situation, that it would
be an easy matter for the American
Sarships to be beaten the way they are
now stationed. There is squadron
consisting of four protected cruisers,
two of which are heavily armed, two
gunboats and five torpedo boat des-
troyers. In Asiatic waters there are
four armored cruisers, two monitors,
five protected cruisers, a number Of
gunboats, division of five torpedo
boat destroyers and four others.
United these would be a match for any
of the great powers having ships on
the Pacific. but they have proved a
force which would have to be looked
after, one even more formidable and
thus would not be considered a serious
menace to any plan of campaign which
might be determined upon.
Secretary Metcalf and the general
board do not propose however, to per
mi he American feet in the Pacific
or be weaker than a possible enemy,
and there Is reason to believe that be-
fore many months have passed q
squadron OF oattleships numbering
eightof the most modern vessels fly
ing the Stars and Stripes will be sta
toned In thu Pacific. "
