Fleet Will Visit Japan.

Washington.-The American battle.
ship fleet is to visit Japan. The desire
of the Emperor of the island kingdom
to play host to the feet was laid before
Secretary Root Thursday by Baron
Takahira. the Japanese Ambassador.
The invitation, which was couched in
most cordial terms, was made the sub
iect of extended consideration by Pres
ident Roosevelt and his entire cabinet
Secretary Root was directed to accept
the invitation and the acceptance was
laid before the japanese ambassador
Friday.
1t is regarded in official circles here
as more than likely that China will be
next to bid for look at the fleet. and
that should this be the case, the invi-
tation would be accepted.
With the exception of China. it is
believed to have been determined that
all other invitations. should any be re-
ceiyed, will be declined. for at best the
fleet will not now be able TO reach the
Atlantic seaboard before the first
OF next March.
The itinerary which seems to be the
most direct includes stops at the Ha-
waiian Islands. Samoa, Melbourne,
Sydney, Manila. Yokohama-should
that port be selected as the stopping
place in Japan-possibly a Chinese
port. back to the Philippines. and then
home by the way of the Suez canal,
with only such stops as are necessary
for coaling.
Japan will have the ships a week
according to tentative plans.
The acceptance of the Japanese in
vitation is regarded in official circles
as of considerable importance in the
way of a demonstration of the cordial
ity existing between the American
and Japanese governments. The added
trip is nearly equal in distance to a
voyage from New York to Europe.
