The morning news. [volume] (Savannah, Ga.) 1887-1900, 1893-04-25

On Friday, the day following that of
the great naval review in New York har-
Dor, a shore parade of naval forces will
be held in New York city. This is an
afterpiecc on the programme. 1t is esti-
mated that 1900 mau-o'war's men will be
in line, of which the United States naval
vessels will land 300 to 800 The Brit
ish marines and tars are said to be the
best marchers in the international feet
But there is little doubt that the yankees
will hold their own with the best. The
sight of such line of sailormon, repre-
senting so many different nationalities,
under one commander, will be as novel as
picturesque.
The labor fight in Hull, details of an
unpleasant incident of which were printed
in the MoRNGSG NEWS yesterday, is not so

every possible rrecaution against an
endemic Of cholera in case the disease
should force is way into this country
this spring. Among the latest prcpara-
tions made are plans to prevent the
spread of the disease through the ele-
waited railways. All the stations and cars
are to be put in thorough sanitary condi-
ton, well supplied with disinfectants and
arrangements made for the immediate
care and isolation of any passengers who
shall be taken sick with the dread dis
ease. The wisdom of and necessity for
such provisions become apparent when
it is remembered that the elevated trains
in New York move from 100000 to $50, 900
people every twenty-four hours These
roads are indeed arteries of the city. and
should they become infected the disease
would be carried to every quarter of it.

So far this season shouting around and
about the green diamond has been con
fined to the cities of the Southern League I;
but day after tomorrow the big league of
all the leagues will open its season. As
is always the case at the commencement.
each city of the National League has
steam of winners" and the first games
will be attended by brass bands and
other boom features From the outlook
the National League will open to as big
business, comparatively speaking. as the
Southern League did. There seems to
have been a revival of interest in the
game all over the country If the game
is well played and ably managed there is
little doubt that the interest will continue
throughout the season, and that base ball
will be again as well established as it
was six years ago. But bad management
and disregard Of adopted policies, regu-
