OLD SPANISH CITIES
SOME THAT UNCLE SAM MAY
CONCLUDE TO SHELL.
ANCIENT CADlZ COVETED
Romantic Old Town That Has Already
Suffered Much as a Result of
War-Modern Krupp Guns Said to
Defend the Harbor-Other Points
in Danger.

When Commodore Watson reaches
Spain there are six sea- coast cities
which will demand his attention es-
pecially-Ca diz, Malaga, Cartagena,
Valencia, Barcelona and Ferrol
Cadiz is the place where the Span
iards have been most active in fitting
out their fleets in this war, and seems
to be their chief naval base. It is an
old city, having been founded by the
Phoenicians, and in it's day has played
many parts and had many rulers. If
Watson takes it, it will not be the
first time that the city has fallen.
Romans, Goths, Arabs and English
have despoiled it. To Cadiz, with fire
and sword, came Essex and Howard
in revenge for the armada, and cap
tured and pillaged the city. Nelson
bombarded it and the French invested
it. Cadiz achieved it's greatest impor-
lance and fiourished mostly by the
discovery of America, which gave it
commercial greatness. From that
same America whence came it's great
ness will now come the means of its
destruction.
Cadiz has a population of $4,000.
It is built on neck of land running
out into the sea 100 miles outside the
straits of Gibraltar 1t has a good
harbor, protected by several forts.
These forts the Spaniards have been
constantly working on lately and
they claim to have them in good con-
dition, but there is no knowing. In
some of the forts there are mounted
heavy Krupp guns, and the other day
the forts gave an exhibition of tar
get practice which delighted the ma
tives. AS Cadiz is SPANS chief
commercial port on the Atlantic, and
right in the path of a fleet sailing to
the Mediterranean, it offers itself nat
urally for the first bombardment by
Commodore Watson of Spanish
city.
Up in the northwest corner of
Spain, between the bay of Biscay and
the Atlantic, is the port of Ferrol.
The Spaniards used to boast that Fer
rol was impregnable, but much Of
the armament of it's extensive fortifi-
cations is obsolete and the word i'm
pregnable is not down on the books
on naval warfare furnished to the Off
GERS of the American fleet In Ferrol
are the chief naval dockyard, the
chief ship-building plants and the
principal arsenals of Spain. The ma
val station there covers twenty three
acres, and fifteen large men-of-war
can be built there at the same time.
The harbor of Ferrol is said to be the
best in Europe, but the channel lead
ing to it is so narrow in one place
that only one ship at time can enter.

are mounted There is always a lot
of Spanish shipping at Malaga,
which could be easily captured or de-
stroyed, and there is prize money for
the crews of the ships which attack
the place. Malaga boasts a popula-
ton of 100000.
Passing along the southeast coast
of Spain after he has finished his
work at Malaga, the commodore will
come to the port of Cartagena, where
are the chief blast furnaces and
smelling works of Spain. These
should be destroyed, so that one of
the temptations to build new navy
would be removed from the dons.
There is a narrow entrance to the
harbor of Cartagena and the place is
said to be well fortified. It might be
considerable trouble to reduce the
place, but it could be done. Carta-
gena is an old city, having been
founded by Hasdruble 243 years be-
fore Christ. The Spaniards have
mounted twenty new guns recently
to defend the harbor.
After leaving Cartagena the. COM
modore might stop on his way up
the west coast Of Spain to look in at
the port of Valencia and destroy the
shipping there. Valencia is three
miles UP the Guadalquiver and not
accessible to ships of war, but the
port could be destroyed and the Span
ISL shipping therein captured or
sunk with ease.
Up toward the northeast corner Of
Spain is the seaport of Barcelona,
with a population of $4,000 and the
commercial and Industrial center Of
eastern Spain. It was once the capt.
tai of the kingdom of Catalonia and
a rival of Venice and Genoa in mari
time greatness. It has a deep har-
Dor, where the largest men-of-war
can lie, and the defenses OF the port,
though they have been recently much
strengthened, are not formidable. It
would be a good town to take and
hold for ransom.
incidentally to this devastation of
the Spanish coast it will be necessary
to seize bases. The first base will
probably be in the Canary islands,
then the Spanish convict station of
Ceuta, on the coast of Africa, opposite
Gibraltar, and subsequently port Of
the Balearic islands. The garrisons
in the Balearics have been greatly
strengthened recently, but all the
forts there are Of the old type. Pal
ma, the city which gave birth to the
butcher Weyler, would be good
place to take, and little salt sown
on the site of his birthplace would do
no harm.
