Every day crowds of visitors come to the
gate and ask ito see the yard and ships. the
big cruiser New, York being the prime
favorite. and all respectable appearing peo-
pie are admitted with pass though many
are searched to ascertain that they carry
no spurious liquor in, as this is a favorite
way for the workmen and enlisted men to
obtain liquor, which is always ruinous to
Gis cipline and work Many persons seem
highly insulted that they should be sub
jected to search. but if they would reflect
that government regulations arise from
strict necessity, and know no distinction of
persons. they would see that 1t Is no insult
to them, and gladly submit thereby assist
ing the government to preserve order. Tn
fortunately, the surrounding neighborhood
abounds in citizens of low class, who too
frequently attempt to steal government
property from the yard, hence vigilance is
ever necessary on the part of the watch
men and sentries.
With the completion of the armored
cruiser Maine and the monitors Puritan
and Terror there will be a great reduction
in the force Of workmen at the yard, I'M
less some new building work is provided
or much of the repair work of the navy is
sent to this station.
