TO MAKE IT IMPROBABLE.
France Is Transforming Bizerta Into a
Second Gibraltar.

france Is transforming Bizerta Into
Second Gibraltar.
From the New York Times.
A year ago the French minister OF
marine. Mr.. Lockroy, paid a visit to
Bizerta, about 81 miles from Tunis,
which. at one time, was the strongest
fortified port in northern Africa. On
his return he recommended in general
terms some Notifications for the place.
By reason of his recommendation a
committee of the French chamber re-
Gently visited the port, and the naval
authorities have now decided upon a
detailed programme. At the time of
the Fashoda scare work was pushed
to secure against a surprise attack
from the sea. This programme is now
amplihed so as to fortify the town
against a land attack, the scheme be-
ing to make it as strong as Gibraltar.
Six powerful batteries are to be es-
tablished on the heights commanding
the town and bay. Three of them are
already practically finished and the re-
mainder are expected to be in position
by the end of the year To defend
the town against a land attack strong
fortifications are being erected on the
kebir heights. some five klometers in
land. The artillerysto be mounted in
kind, with view of it's being able to
cooperate with the land batteries
against a hostile fleet. 1t will be re-
called that century ago Bizerta pos
sessed a very fine harbor almost COM
pletely landlocked. The harbor will
now admit only vessels of very light
draught. One part of the scheme is to
dredge it thoroughly. At the same
time breakwater barring the entrance
to the harbor will be constructed, leav-
ing a portal of only 400 meters wide.
The projected breakwater will thus
force the ships trying to enter the har-
Dor to present their broadsides to a
series of low level batteries on the
shore A maritime arsenal is to be
erected at idi-Abdallah, at the ex-
treme end of the inland lake. In i'm
proving this port the military authori-
ties will cooperate with the naval de-
partment, and preparations are being
made to garrison the place with %. 900
troops, in order to allow of it defending
itself without aid either from France
or Algeria. There are to-day 49, 600
troops in the colony. An attempt made
in the French chamber a fortnight ago
to withdraw a part of these and send
them to Algiers was defeated by strong
opposition.
