FLEET GETTING
READY TO SAIL.
BIG Cruisers Taklpo Preliminary
Steps 10 Leaving for San
DiepO-cOallnu Today.
tFrom Thundayls AdvertI.srl

The Rect today will begin taking che
preliminary stops IN getting rsady TO
sail from this port for San Diego, Jsnu.
airy Q. This morning the cruiser Mary.
land, now lying at an anchorage outside
the harbOr win begin taking on board
coal enough to an her huge bunkers.
She will need about 700 tons, Il was
said on the Othor ships yesterday. The
normal coal supply Of the ship is 900
tons, but she can, when necessary carry
1000 tons Of fuel
The Colorado will coal Saturday and
the South Dakota and West Virginia a.
soon as the barges can DO laid along
SIDE The California, the flagship Of
Admiral Thomas, will not take her sup
ply Of coal on board until January 4,
and will DO the last of the feet to
coal, Coaling will not be allowed to
disturb the New Year ceremonies,
plans for which are nearly complete.
While the orders under which the
feet is now acting read that the vessels
are to start from Honolulu for San
Diego January 9, rumor brought in
by the U, s. s. Buffalo Tuesday morn
ing, is still fitting about the ships now
here. There was a report in semi
official circles before the naval trans
port left San Francisco to the effect
that some, if not all of the vessels Of
the feet here, would be dispatched to
China, before returning TO the Coast.
This rumor persists despite. the
laughing reception it got in high quar-
ters on the big cruisers. No officer
could be got to swear belief in the re-
port that China is the destination Of
any Of the members of the Pacific
fleet, but they were all talking about it
yesterday.
If the ships have to sail January 8,
they are separately and collectively de-
termined to enjoy to the full every
minute Of their time in the Paradise OF
the Pacific. As Lieutenant Commander
James, executive officer Of the West
Virginia, put it yesterday afternoon,
1--WE are doing our best to keep the
pace you Honolulu people are setting
and wen stick if our constitutions
hold out.
What with balls and dances and New
Years festivities and routs and din.
ners and "little private informal af.
fairs, You know" the officers are find.
ing their hands fun to the brim-if
indeed they are not running over. The
fleet win leave a blaze Of brilliant
memories behind when It finally pulls
in the last line, drops gang planks and
