FLEET TO VISIT JAPAN.
Battleships Will Stop at Yoke
hama on Homeward Trip.
QUICK DECISION is REACHED

Mikado's Government Extends invita-.
tion Through Minister Takahira and
the President and Cabinet Promptly
Agree to Accept 1t.
Washington, March 21-Japan has
extended an invitation to the Amer
lean government to have the Atlantic
battleship feet visit that country on
its homeward cruise around the world
and the invitation has been accepted.
This invitation was received at the
Japanese embassy here and was at
once transmitted to Secretary Root
by Ambassador Takahira. The ques-
tion was considered by the president
and his cabinet and it was decided to
accept the invitation. Secretary Root
was authorized to notify the Japanese
minister of the action taken. 1t is
believed that Yokohama will be the
japanese port at which the fleet will
call.
An invitation is expected from the
Chinese government to have the Amer.
lean feet visit Chinese waters as soon
as 1t becomes known to the Chinese
government that the Japanese invita-
tion has been accepted. In that case
1t will, of course, be necessary for the
feet also to visit China and 1t is
likely that the stop will be made at
Shanghai.
