The Squadron of Mannuvre.

The departure, during the past week, of
three vessels of the North Atlantic SQUAD
ron from Hampton Roads for the West In
dies, marks the beginning of cruise which
is intended to include exercises in fleet evo-
lutions and general training.
This first installment of Admiral MEADE's
squadron Of maneuvre includes the flag
ship New York, Capt. r. ID. EVANS COM
manding; the new protected cruiser Cincin-
natl Capt. GLASS, and her sister ship the
Raleigh, Capt. MERRILL MILLER. Already in
the Gulf are the Atlanta, Capt. CROMWELL,
now on duty at Colon, in view of the civil
war in Colombia and the Montgomery,
Commander DAVIS, at Mobile, awaiting the
arrival OF the squadron. A little later, the
crack sister ships Columbia, Capt. SUMNER,
and Minneapolis, Capt. WADLEIGH, will go
south to complete the feet, which, as is
seen, will comprise seven of the finest ships
we now have in commission.
But prior to the assembling OF the entire
squadron there will be preliminary cruise
of portion of it in the Gulf and the Carib-
bean Sea. The itinerary of the flagship is
st. Lucia, Port of Spain, La Guayra, Cura-
Goa, Port-au-Prince, Kingston, Colon, Ha-
being reached in the latter part OF April. It
may be also that the pending disturbances
in South and Central America will alter the
present programme. But there is little
doubt that there will be long season avail
able for the cruising of the fleet, together
with the practice in evolutions now planned,
from Key West as far north as Newport,
where the final exercises of the fleet for the
year may perhaps be in conjunction with the
Naval War College.

For Both sides to Look At.

We tell the members of District Assem-
bly, 75 that their leaders, who have already
brought on them the loss OF their places,
are now carrying on war Of mere humbug.
Their proposition that the Aldermen shall
"revoke the license Of the railroad COM
panies is consummate nonsense. At the
same time let the Brooklyn people sup
pose that this were not so, and that the
license could be revoked at the behest Of
District Assembly rs. The result would be
that all the transportation of the city would
be shut up during the weeks or months or
years needed to organize new company
get new cars, or clear away the wreckage
OF legal complications.
The facts of this trouble cannot be blnked.
The trolley companies are running their
cars. The operations Of the Knights of
Labor are now confined to attempts to muir
der motormen at work, or to tie up Brook
lyns entire system of transportation. Even
with the heavy handicap of unfaithful off,
cials like ScHIEREN, the Mayor, or WELLEs,
