TO ALL WHO MAY BE CONCERNED.
The following important message from the Lords of the Admiralty has been received by His Excellency the Governor, who Is desirous that it shall receive the widest publicity:— The attention of officers in command is called to the necessity of strict reticence in all matters relating to the movements and operations against the Fleet. Interviews and letters from the . Fleet are appearing in the Press, giving information which should not be made public, and It appears from private telegrams (correctly addressed to ships at their base) that information on this point must have been conveyed in letters from these ships. Such lapses in secrecy may have serious effects on the public interest; and as they cannot always be controlled by censorship, the patriotic co-operation of all ranks should be invited. His Excellency hopes that this request will be strictly adhered to.
