Secretary Herbert states that he will not
be able to furnish transportation for
guests. A great many applications have
been made to the secretary to allow news
paper correspondents transportation upon
the vessels of the fleet from Hampton
Roads on the Gath of April to New York
harbor. Owing to the fact that he would
be able to accommodate very few and
TO his
Disinclination to Discriminate,
he has decided to allow two representatives
of the American Press and two representa-
tives Of the United Press to sail upon one
of the vessels and not to issue permission
to any other correspondents.
These two associations represent, as IL is
understood, all the newspapers OF the
United States and they are allowed trans
portation with the feet upon condition
that they will furnish 10 any newspaper
applying, which is not represe ted by one
or other of these associations, copies of
their reports The official program of the
movement of the feet, their disposition
and all details relating to their participa-
tion in the review viii he issued by Rear
Admiral Gherardi, who will afford to the
representatives of the press all proper
facilities for visiting the vessels at anchor
in Hampton Roads.
A notice to mariners will shortly be pub
lished by Secretary Herbert stating the
grounds reserved for the movements and
anchorage of the men of-war during the
review and the re restrictions which will be
imposed upon the movements Of all ves-
sells in their vicinity.
