BIG FLEET TO
TOUCH At GULF
PORTS ON TRIP
THEY ARE TO HAVE A WINTER
CRUISE TO COLON AND 1T is
EXPECTED THEY WILL STOP AT
NUMBER OF GULF PORTS,

The North Atlantic fleet is to have
a winter cruise this year TO Colon and
return and 1t is expected that on the
trip there the vessels viii stop at a
number of gulf ports. II so there is
no doubt but that Pensacola will be
one of the ports visited. In this con-
nection the Times-Denaocrat of yester-
day contained the following:
"a letter received yesterday by Lieut..
Edward 8. Moses, chief of the local
photographic office, from the navy de-
partment, states that Secretary George
Won L. Meyer has planned the winter
cruise of the Atlantic fleet. In order
that the men Of the feet may have an
opportunity to inspect the great work
done on the Panama canal. Colon has
been included in the itinerary
TT is more than probable the depart
ment will see At 10 allow the ships to
visit one or more of the gulf ports, as
1t is said that sucn visit would stimu-
late interest in the navy among the
people of this section. Should Secre-
tary Meyer see At to route the battle
ships this way 1t is hoped that they
will arrive in time to participate in
the festivities incident TO the carnival.
There Is much interest in naval cir
cles over the impending completion OF
the canal that is to link the Atlantic
and Pacific oceans, and the proposed
trip will prove exceptionally interest
ing and instructive to the officers and
men Of the fleet. When the ships ar
rive at Colon, special trains will be
provided to convey the men across the
strip and to the different points of
interest.

crete for the locks vas in place on
