which one had been selected. 1t was
suggested in some quarters that the
army might land on the south coast
near the city of Ponce to the southwest
OF San Juan. Ponce is situated on "A
plain about two miles from the sea-
board; is the residence of the military
commander of the district and is COM
mercially the second city of import

to the port playa where is situated

officers. The port is spacious and will

but in the hills to the north of the
town series of earth intrenchments
have lately been constructed.
West of Ponce, where the railroad
and military road touch the shore,
earthworks have been constructed to
guard this strategic point.
There are about thirty mountain
howitzers in Ponce available for the
defense of the city and railroad The
army would have to travel 80 miles
across the mountainous country to
reach San Juan. There is, however,
main road, irregular and circuitous,
connecting Ponce and San Juan.
The Northern Coast of tho Island.
The northern coast of the island ex-
tends in an almost straight line from
east to west and is high and rugged.
The only harbors it has are the follow
ing: San Juan, surrounded by mangrove
swamps and protected by the Cabras
and Cabritas islands and some very
dangerous banks; the auchoring
ground OF Arecido, mewhat unpro-
tected, and which has been mentioned
as a possible landing place. and the
coves of Cangrejos and Condando.
