VOYAGE OF THE FLEET.

Popular interest in the voyage OF the
| American feet Is no longer as Intense
| as it was. Even the most important
events naturally are regarded in the
light OF matter Of fact when the novel
ty is worn off. When the fleet first
started on it's tour, everyone was cur
ious to know how the massing of ships
| on the Pacific would be construed by
other powers. especially Japan. There
was some alarm lest the enterprise
should turn out to be menace to the
peace of the world. But nothing OF the
kind has happened. No embarrassing
complications have arisen. The Fleet
is as welcome in Japan as it was
in Australia and New Zealand. The
demonstrations are on q truly Oriental
scale. The croakings of the birds Of Ill
omen have, once more, come to naught.
There was some disappointment at
Manila, because the health conditions
there were such that it was deemed
unadvisable to permit tho men to land.
But the PLAN now is to return to
Manila early in December, when it lis
hoped the health conditions will be
improved.
From Manila, the fleet will go to
Colombo and then head straight for
Suez, where it is scheduled to arrive the
first week in January: Visits will be
made at Athens, Naples, Genoa, Leg,
horn. Malta, Algiers, and other ports
where the American flag is rarely seen.
1t Will then reasse1nble at Gibraltar in
the first week OF February. Then will
come the sail straight for home, tho
plan being for the arrival Of the fleet
at New York on February %, Wash
ingtons birthday.
When this tour is completed 1t will be
placed on record us one OF the most
remarkable voyages Of history And the
best of it is that the fleet is the bearer
of Il message OF good will to all the
nations OF the earth. American sea-
rnanship is being tested In this circum-
navigation Of the globe, as never before.
and its superiority is demonstrated in
the precision Of the movement and free
dom from delays which have charac-
terized the Itinerary so fur. 1t is a
demonstration OF the superb construc-
ton, equipment, and management Of
our navy. and It crowns, daily. with
new laurels, the American naval SER
vice.

1t is evident that the peace of Europe

der Turkish suzerainty by the Berlin
treaty OF 1875 But Ferdinand has al
ways aimed at complete independence.
In 1905 he made a tour of Europe for
the purpose OF ascertaining the views
of the governments on this point.
In 1903 Bulgarians invaded Mace
donia; Turkey protested and both coun-
tries talked war, but a conflict was
averted by the powers. Early in the
following year the trouble broke out
afresh. when Macedonia again became
a danger spot owing 10 the uprising
of peasants led by Boris Sarafoff and
other insurgent leaders. Again IN 1906
trouble seemed inevitable.
The recent friction arose concern-

Talk Of war with Bulgaria was had at

September IS last, and on the following
