WILL HAVE GREAT FLEET
I'm The PACIFIC COAST

Complete plans for the consolidation
INTO one fleet of all American cruising
vessels In the Pacific ocean have been
made public by the navy department.
The order probably will 90 INTO effect
about the end of this month. when
Rear Admiral Browneon VIII become
commander in chief of all American
naval vessels in the Pacific. Rear Ad
miral Swinburne will be commander Of
the second squadron, and Rear Admir-
al j. ii. Dayton will command the
third squadron.
AT present the warships in the Pa
cihc are organized into Asiatic fleet
and the Pacific squadron. Their con-
solldation is in accordance with the
navy departments policy instituted by
the abolition of the South Atlantic and
European stations in the Atlantic and
the concentration of all vessels in that
ocean under one command.
In statement from the navy depart
ment 1T Is shown that the groups of
ships IN the Paicfic will remain in the
same general position and perform
much the same duties they have 1T
present, They will, however, proba-
bly, meet for general drills and exer-
clses anywhere on the station and an
effort will be made to repair all the
larger ships In Pacific coast navy
yards. AS far as is practicable, dock
ing and minor repairs to vessels in
Asiatic waters will be made at Cavite
or Olingapo. The department does not
expect to send any of the battleships
now in the Atlantic to the Pacific.
