OREGONIAN NEWS BVRRAU, "Wash
ington. April 10. (Special.) None of the
littttleeihfpft which sailed throutrh the
Straits will visit Portland, nor will any
nher ships of the combined fleet enter
the Columbia River during the cruise
Blonc the 1'pper Pacific Coast. The Navy
liepartment has decided to ignore Port
land completely, and. notwitliHtanding the
demands of the Portland people, no war
Fhlps of any kind will visit that city un-le-im
unmw torpedo flotilla go up to attend
the Rose Festival in June.
The programme for the battleship fleet
after its arrival at San Kranclco was an
nounced at tht Navy Department today.
The battleship will pail In a body direct
for Puset Sound, there to be distributed
HmonK various cities and towns, nd at
the end of a week will return direct to
Ban Francisco, leaving behind only those
liattleships which will go Into drydock at
liremerton.
Navigation Officers Fears.
"When Senator Bourne learned this af
ternoon that Portland had been ignored,
he culled on Secretary Mctcalf to enter
a -protest, but was told very plainly 4hat
tlte department would not run the risk of
ordering battleships up the Columbia
JUver, because navigating officers Teport
d that there would be considerable at
tendant risks. When he saw that It was
Impossible to get battleships. Mr. Bourne
reminded the Secretary of his tentative
promise at least to send cruisers to Port
land. The Secretary explained that the
cruisers would not go north with the
battlrshijis, and therefore it would be im
possible to send even these lighter-draft
vessels to Portland.
Must Go to Other Cities.
If the people of Portland and Oregon
want to view battleships, they must go
cither to Puget Sound or San Francisco.
Almost every town on Puget Sound will
te visited by one or more battleships, and
the whole fleet will make a prolonged ctay
at Seattle.
The entire Washington delegation today
called on Mr. Metcalf to have the visit of
the fleet to Puget Sound extended, and at
its request one day was added to the time
to be ept-nt at Seattle.
The programme as officially an
nounced Is as follows:
Programme of Northern Trip.
"The Atlantic fleet will leave San
Fianeisco fur Puget Sound May 18, and
upon arrival there on May 21 f our ehlps
will visit Port Angeles, eight ships will
visit Uellingham, and three ships will
visit 1'ort Townsend, one ship proceed
ing at once to the navy-yard at Bre
merton to be dockfd.
"On Saturday, May 23. all the ships
cf the fleet, with the exception of the
one docked at Bremerton, will rendez
vous in the vicinity of Port Townsend
and proceed to an anchorage, in the vi
cinity of Seattle.
"Ou Wednesday, May 27. 12 ship will
leave anchorage near Seattle and will
Ueam to Tacoma in order that th peo
ple of that vicinity may have a view
f the fleet, and thence without
Anchorage eight ships v:)l sail for San
Francisco, leaving four ships at anchor
near Tacoma for a visit of three days,
when these vessels will fro to Bremer
ton for dockage. The ships docking at
Bremerton will sail for San Francisco
us soon as they are ready, the last one
to arrive not later than July 3.
There Is a conflict between the above
dispatch and the one from Senator
Bourne which It was Impossible to
reconcile last night.

He 1 Iff. commanded by Surgeon Charles
F. Stokes, is being coaled preparatory to
vailing south on Sunday to rejoin the
battleship fleet. The Relief reached here
on Tuesday and expected to remain for a
couple of weeks, but orders from Wash

Orders have also been received to rush
to completion all jobs on the flagship
West Virginia and the cruiser Maryland,
us these vessels are to leave Mare Island
April 17 for Bremerton yard to be docked.
The orders provided for the vessels to re

tated the work here being rushed.
The transport Sheridan, upon which
the Mare Island workmen are completing
a 10 month s job, will be docked here to
morrow, preparatory to being turned over
to the transport authorities. The work
of repairing and overhauling was com

than was originally estimated. Kstimates
are now being made here for work on the
transport Sherman. The collier Justin
will be docked at once, as hen services
are needed with the Pacific flett.

ROSEBUKG, Or.. April 10. (Special.) One of the most deligrhtful family
reunions In the history of Ikugias County occurred on March 30. when Mr.
and Mrs. Aaron Harvey, two of Doug-la County's most esteemed residents,
celebrated their ROlden wedding at their "home In Knlteh Settlement, nine
miles north of Oakland. The scene of the festivities being at the fireside where
they have resided the entire 50 years of their wedded life. Mr. and Mrs. Harvey
came to Oregon in 1S"3. Mr. Harvey settled in the Willamette Valley and came
to Douplaa County one year later, where he married Mrs. Elizabeth Coats in

ance at the anniversary celebration. The fourth generation was represented In

aid stated that he was doing nicely and

Despite the statements last night of
the Los Angeles delegation, which es
corted Mrs. Evans here, that Admiral
Kvans will be in Ios Angeles to attend
the banquet on April SKfc and be in the
automobile parade the following day,
there seems to be as much uncertainty
as ever about his participating in any
of the Los Angeles festivities. It was
Impossible to get an authoritative state
ment, but Dr. McDonald said:
We are not responsible for what the
members of the I-os Angeles delegation
may have stated."
One member of- the Los Angeles party.
It was learned from a friend of Admiral
Kvans, was so Insistent upon the hitter's
presence that lie asked permission to
send a specialist from Dos Angeles with
a, view of ascertaining whether the Ad
ntfral could stand the trip and strain of
being at the banquet for a few minuses.
The offer was declined.
Now that the Admiral's wife and daugh
ter, who arrived yesterday afternoon, are
here to care for him, It is believed that
their presence will do much toward his
recovery. Dr. McDonald stated that
Mrs. Kvans said she was pleased to tind
her husband looking as well as he did.
