NEW YOBS. July 19The " New York World * attributes to Mr. Roosevelt a statement to the effect that he had given no order to the Navy Board to send, a battleship fleet to the Pacific, and that he was unaware that the Board had issued any such order. The fleet, says the " New York World," will proceed to cruise early in the " fall" for the purpose of engaging in the manoeuvres. It may go to the Pacific, but the destination has not yet been determined. The plans, adds this journal, have absolutely no significance in regard to the Japanese question, which Mr. Boosevelt does not consider to be serious.
The " New York World" also expresses the belief that Mr. Boosevelt will not consent to send the fleet to the western coast, declares that the Jingo demonstration is finished, and attributes it to the '* ridiculous Fourth of July bunkum talked by Mr. Metcalf (Secretary of the Navy).
Finally, the newspaper states that there are some signs of California's beginning to regret the campaign and trying to appease the prevailing ill-feeling.
