ORIGIN OF PLAN.
One of the stories, which was told
in naval circles today, is to the effect
that President Roosevelt suggested
the transfer of the battleship fleet just
before he left Washington for Oyster
Bay. The suggestion, according 70
the story, did not meet with favor and
some members of the cabinet express
ed themselves as opposed to II on the
grolnd that Japan would get ready for
war the minute the plae became
known. To this objection, the presi-
dent, so the gossip ran, respond<d that
Japan would not oppose any such
course, and even II she should view

Pacific as hostile act, the United
States would then be prepared to meet
her. The view attributed to the preei-
dent has since been endorsed by Wis
count Aoki, the Japanese ambassador

AMERICAN WOMAN
Charged With swlndIine Lemon So

London, July 5.-An American wo.
man, who gave her name as Josephine
Leslie, was charged in the West Lon
don police court today with obtaining
by false pretenses from Miss Annie
Blount, a member of well known
family, $500. 1t is said that the ac-
cused represented herself as an ac-
quaintance of a wealthy New Yorker
and pretended that he was giving her
financial tips.
Probably a charge Of obtaining $685.

woman will be made against the pr1s-
oner, who was remanded. The police
say that her friends have been among
the wealthiest people. She was arrest

she was staying at once of the principal
hotels and motored to and from the
races daily in smart car.

Roosevelt and Secretary Of the Navy
Metcalf for the synchronous announce

United States. William Loeb, Jr.,
secretary to the president, was little
less definite than Mr.. Metcalf, for he
said, speaking for Mr.. Roosevelt, that
the feet was merely going on cruise
and might go elsewhere than to the
Pacific.
