1. PACIFIC FLEET
 GOES ID THE EAST Important Issues Are to Be Set
 tied With Fleets Aid NEW TREATY WITH JAPAN Movements of Russia and Japan in Manchuria Are To Be Watched
 and Chinese Affairs Need
 Some Observation.
NEW TREATY WITH JAPAN

Washington, July 1O.-(Special )-The fact announced today that the navy de- partment has decided to send the Pa cifc fleet to the Philippines after the maneuvers of that fleet in home waters, Ns a particularly significant determina- ton in view of the administration off cials.
 It is. of course. stated that the Pacific fleet is to return to San Francisco, but it is not stated when it will return The belief is that it will not return until after several important issues in the far east have developed to the satisfaction of this government
 Among these issues are, first, a new treaty with Japan, which must meet squarely the Japanese labor problem or evt,de it pusillanimously; second, the machinations of both Russia and Japan in Manchuria. In this latter great prov ince of China the United States claims commercial privileges granted by China, which the selfish policy of Japan and Russia are jeopardizing. Russia, in brief. is attempting to renew her old treaty with China for control of Manchurian railroads, and Japan, taking alarm, is keeping nearly a whole army corps in Manchuria All this is contrary to the ''open door, and peace programme of the Portsmouth treaty. Neither the United States, Japan nor Russia is willing "ar this time" to do anything so openly as that bad blood shall be engendered, but it is feared that there is no way out of the difficulty except by the United States taking the initiative for the peace of Manchuria and the reassertion of the un- qualified sovereignty of China, with per feet freedom of commercial relations.
 The state department has learned that the fleet is a great diplomat. It is noted by the navy officers today that wherever there is anything of importance on hand at the state department the navy depart ment gets orders to do spectacular things.
 AS for instance: When the United States had to deal with Japan firmly two years ago the Atlantic fleet was trans ferred to the Pacific. When 1t was an- nounced, finally that the Atlantic fleet was to leave the Pacific again for the At lantic the Japan jingoes got restless and in order to meet that contingency the state department had the Pacific depart ment follow the Atlantic fleet to the Ha- waiian islands and beyond. This, even. it. Is asserted, caused Ambassador Talka- hira to call on President Roosevelt at Oyster Bay, but he got no satisfaction.
 Now comes the new Japenese treaty and the rights of the United States in Manchuria.
 Ambassador TalSahira is going home to Tokio to tell his government what the United States will do regarding a new convention, and it can be anticipated that | Japan will object. Enough Is known al- ! ready to state that as a fact. There will | be more friction and probably some heated diplomatic representations. The Pacific fleet will be in Philippine waters about the same time the questions as to the treaty and Manchuria become acute.

ESQUlMAUX LAD
 GOES BACK HOME

New York, July 10.-Mene Wallace, the home-sick Esquamau lad who sailed today for North Greenland to rejoin his own people, issued a farewell state ment' in which he declared that upon reaching his destination he will organize an expedition of natives and sail with them in search of the pole. He believes that he can succeed where white men have failed and he carried with him today a set of scientific instruments the gift of friends here, which he hopes to use in his expedition.
 "I don't believe that Peary or any other white man will ever reach the pole," he declared today. But I and my people will do it. If we meet Peary in the north we shall pay no attention to him.
 Before sailing Mene's former guardians here who have found him a somewhat troublesome charge, prevailed on him to sigSr an agreement never to return Meme attributed this action to jealously as he said "the other explorers do not wish me to bring word to civiliza tion that have succeeded where they have failed"
