Commenting upon the action OF the

Pensacola navy yard, the New York
Marine Journal says:
while work is to be abandoned at

not to be dismantled. but will be
placed in condition for preservation
for future possible use. The depart
ment has not yet decided what dispo-
sition to make of the dry dock.
The growing Importance OF Pensa-

seem to warrant making this structure
available for merchant vessels which
might desire to use it as private capt

convenience to shipping"
