depot remains in the way.
Mayor Gaynor also intends to confer with

II is the general belief in the navy yard
that some misunderstanding is responsible
for the report that the government contem-
plates ceding the yard TO the city and To-
eating its industries elsewhere. 1t is only
little more than a month since Secretary
Meyer spoke about the congested condition
Of the yard, and inquired as to adjacent
property available for its enlargement as
well as the enlargement Of the wooden dry
docks, The disposal Of large tract of
land east Of the present ward wall 10 the
city during the administration Of Secretary
Tracy has ever since been regretted by
yard officials, but IL is pointed out that
yard space is more nearly utilized now
than it has been for some years, and the
works Of Improvement which have been
going on steadily for the last two years
