Naval Station.
Washington, Nov. 2s. - Admiral
Dewey called at the navy department
yesterday in response to request from
Secretary Long to discuss the question
of establishing a naval station at Ca
vite or some other point near Manila.
The admiral brought with him portions
of his report to be Incorporated in the
full report of the Philippine commits
sion. This discusses the establishment
of permanent naval station for the
Philippines and recommends Subig bay,
about sixty miles from Manila, as pref
cradle to Cavite, as there is fine har-
Dor Of capable depth OF water and
many natural advantages for making
this strong naval establishment.
While Admiral Dewey's view will no
doubt prevail when permanent sta
ton is established, this will be for CON
gress to- deal with, and the present pur-
pose is to utilize the Cavite station for
current work on the warships. Rear
Admiral Gillis' name has been men
toned as commandant OF the Cavite
station.
