Only five ships OF the Victory Fleet,
which has been visited by thousands
during the last two weeks, rode at

Throughout the day the others had de-
parted, singly and in groups, for their
first assignments to peacetime service.
Wednesday night and yesterday
morning were occupied in coaling ship
and in putting on the final touches for
long deep sea service. The last of the
liberty parties boarded the vessels
in the morning. Executive officers
throughout the fleet reported that alb

down the river shortly after noon,
nearby vessels whistling a farewell.
The flagship will remain at the Brook

other craft departed, including four of
the dreadnoughts, which will take the
meteorological observation of the trans

These are the New York, Arkansas,

part early to-day. Most Of the de-
