FROM ATLANTIC
TO THE PACIFIC
BE Fleet Starts on $1,000 Mile
Voyage.
FOhy.threc War Ships with 5000 MsT
Going for Practice Cruise Around
Cape .HOrn-May Circle the
Globe on Return.

The big Atlantic fleet under COM
mand of Rear Admiral Robley D.
Evans sailed yesterday from Hamp-
ton Roads, Va, on its cruise of
Is, 900 miles around Cape Horn to
the Pacific coast. The entire feet
of forty~three battleships, all paint
ed white, and carrying $4,000 men,
steamed out of the Roads in state
ly procession, being led by the
Naval yacht Mayhower with Presi-
dent Roosevelt on board as far as
the capes, where the Mayhower
gave way to the flagship Connect
cut, and stood to one side az the
double line of ironclads steemed
past and took their course south
ward. The President waved his
farewell to Admiral Evans as the
Connecticut passed the Mayhower.
The sailing Of this formidable
fleet from the Atlantic to the Pa
ci6c is regarded by many as being
of peculiar significance, in view of
the recent somewhat strained rela-
tons with Japan, but it is given
out merely as a practice cruise, and
those closest to the government
assert that the voyage has no other
significance than that. 1t is said to
be probable that the feet may
circle the globe before returning to
the Atlantic coast.

PROCEEDINGS OF THE
TEACHERS INSTITUTE.
Interesting Papers Read and Profitable
piscussiOa Of Subjects Held.

The proceedings at the Teachers
Institute for Monday afternoon in
cluded papers by Prof. w. H.
Schmidt and Miss Kate Edwards.
History; How it Should Be
Taught and its Philosophy" was
Prof. Schmidt's subject. He han
died it in a masterful manner and
evinced a surprising degree of in
formation on historical facts. His
paper was followed by a very ami
mated discussion on the part of the
teachers, in which some of the la
dies exhibited an astonishing fam
iliarity with matters of a political
nature.
Methods and Arrangements, :"
was the title of Miss Edwards pa
per, in which she brought out some
very valuable ideas on this impor-
tant subject.
The Question Box occupied the
institute from 3 to 4 O'Clock, and
many questions were answered and
discussed during that time.

This morning, the exercises were
opened by an excellent paper by
Miss Louise Champion on How
to teach Mexican children to speak
English. The full period was
filed with earnest discussion on
this very important subject, and
many original and practical sug
gestions were given.
Prof. I. L. Gambler followed
with an able paper on the subject
of English grammer. The interest
taken in this subject was remark
able. and no doubt the warm dis
cussion entered into on this impor-
,tant subject will bear good results.
Miss jennie Phipps read 4 most
interesting paper on teaching Eng
lish composition. Her presentation
of the subject was clear and the
discussion that followed was ably
joined in by many of the body.
At twelve the usual noon recess
took place and the teachers resum :
ing work at one o'clock, several
interesting subjects being treated
during the afternoon, which will

ALL ARE VERY HOPEFUL
Telegraph Managers say That Opera
tors Strike Is over-smalI Is Of
Opinion That 1t Has Just Begun.

, i j
San Francisco, July 1.-The strike
is over" said Superintendent Storrer
of the Postal Telegraph company to-
day. "The strike is over" said Man
ager O'Brien of the Western Union,
in the Ferry building. The strike
has just begun, said President Small
OF the Commercial Telegraphers'
Union Of America.
These three laconic statements ade-
qnately describe the attitude Of the
opposing parties and give hint as
to their future action. Although the
officials if both companies here in San
Francisco are but subordinates, and it
is not of their own volition to take
any steps towards settlement, it is
not thought likely that any such steps
will be taken while the local officials
report that they are handling the
business without unreasonable de.
lay.
The operators, on the other hand,
state that they will carry on the fight,
even though the companies find a
man for every key and they declare
they are prepared to stay out six
months if necessary. Their leaders
however, SAX that they expect to win
in much less time, and President
Small yesterday prophesied that
'lightning would strike soon in an
unexpected place. but did not ex
plain his remarks.
