TO DISTRIBUTE THE FLEET.
Navy Department Announces Plans
for Vessels Now at Guantanamo.

The Navy Department has announced
it's plans for the distribution Of the ele-
ments that make up the great fleet Of
war vessels now assembled at Guanta-
namo. Cuba. for the winter target prac-
tice and drills. The battleships will sail
from Guantanamo March 13 for Hamp-
ton roads. arriving March IS. The battle
practice will begin off the Chesapeake
capes April l, lasting one week. when the
fleet will split up, the various divisions
going to their home yards for docking.
Two weeks later they will again con-
centrate and proceed to sea for drills and
exercises, which should begin about May
]. When the South Carolina and Michi-
gan, now being fitted with new propellerS
at Norfolk are ready they will join the
feet. 1t Is probable that one Of these
Vessels will be designated to convey to
Chile the body OF the late Minister Cruz,
in place Of the Delaware, which has sus-
tanned an accident to one of her boilers.
The armored cruisers Tennessee, Mon
tana and North Carolina will leave the
battleship feet at Guantanamo about
February 16 to 20. returning to Atlantic
coast ports. The armored cruiser Wash
ington will be sent to the Portsmouth,
n. H., navy yard for repairs.
The scout ships Birmingham, Salem and
Chester also will leave the Atlantic fleet
at Guantanamo February 16, visiting GER
| tain of the gulf ports during the Mardi
Gras period. and then returning to north
! ern ports about the middle OF March,
| The torpedo boats will leave Guanta-
namo February 18 to indulge in some
drills in the Gulf of Mexico and then head
| for Hampton roads about the middle of
March.

driven to this repeated perjury by the
conduct OF the states attorney and his
assistants. What the Senate must de-
termine Is whether it believes. as a mat
ter of fact, that these men actually did
receive the money which they testified
to having received. and large amounts of
which were found I'm their possession in
bills of large denomina tion about the time
they testified to having received 1t. This
is the question before us-not the con-
duct of the officers Of justice"
When Link was before the investigating
committee and had theAtrically described
the third degree he was asked:
TELL me II any one connected with the
states attorneys Office his assistants,
officers, employees, asked you to ie?"
Link answered.:
They didn't ask me to lie."
He was further asked:
You told the truth. and then thew
noflied the Indictment for perjury against
you. didn't they?"
This was his reply:
Yes. sir: after l answered those two
