COMMENT ON FLEETS VISIT.
---
British Newspaper Draws Home Les.
SON From American Plan.

LONDON. May 1.-THE Daily Tele-
graph devotes an article TO the proposed
visit of the American fleet to Mediter-
Tanean ports early next year. 1t says
that British hospitality will be extended
TO the crews at Gibraltar and Malta. and
probably one Egyptian port.
The Telegraph points out that the
American fleet will be Ny far the most
pow erful in the Mediterranean, and says
that the decision of the United States
government to dispatch force of such
commanding power indicates the impor-
tance attached to the task OF showing
the flag in the old world, with a view to
supporting American diplomacy.
In the opinion of the Telegraph the
visit of the American ships will have the
effect of inducing the British government
to modify it's present policy of continuous
concentration of the naval power in home
waters. which many officers consider IN
furious to the spirit and character OF the
service.
