The course was aoross the Atlantic,
through the Mediterranean, the Hues
canal and to Singapore, from thence to
'Manila. The flotilla had been gone
scarcely a week when the navy de

After several days with no Word from

When about GOO miles, west of th
Canary Islands the Dewey flotilla en
countered tremendous storms. .The
Ships were driven from their course
and could make scarcely any headway.
One night the great drydock broke from
her towing cobles and was adrift for
some time before she could be picked
up.
The Dewey broke adrift again twice
before reaching Gibraltar. On arriving
at Sues canal there wae another de
lay.. All traffic waa stopped and the
canal had to be widened In places to
permit the Dewey to pass. It Is estl

One Of the most serious Incidents of
the trip waa an outbreak of beri-berl
