The Navy Yard Question.

The commissioners appointed to select a
site for navy yard in the south will visit
Savannah and report upon her advantages
for it. There will be no necessity for
committee to go to Washington about the
matter. Senator Colquitt telegraphed yes
terday that the Secretary of the Navy
readily granted the request of the city
council
The commissioners will not reach here
probably for a week or two-shat is, if they
visit Pensacola and New Orleans before
coming here. In the meantime it would be
well for the city authorities to col
lect all the information that tue
commissioners will likely want respect
ing Savannah's advantages, and be pre-
pared to furnish it promptly. The commits
sioners want facts. not talk II the facts
favor Savannah she will stand a good
chance of getting the navy yard. If they
don't she won't
The South Carolina folks think Port
Royal is favored by the commissioners. OF
course they do It know anything about It,
The navy yard would be worth millions of
dollars to Savanna, and her chance for
getting it depends, to some extent, upon the
ability of her author ties to present to the
commissioners all her advantages in tho
best light.
