The Plot Thiekens.

AS we pointed out yesterday IL Is at
present impossible TO maintain an Ameri-
can feet Of any size in the Pacific per-
manentiy on account Of the lack Of a
naval base. To remedy this fatal defect
in the amazing naval programme Of send
ing sixteen battle ships to the Pacific, It
is now proposed to acquire a naval rem
devious in Mexican waters, none being
available on our own coast The Mexican
constitution, 10 be sure, stands in the way
Of this little project, but that, we are
told, can be readily amended: and we are
willing. so the story goes, TO buy the
whole Of Lower California, If that be nee
essary.
"The desire Of the administration TO
gain a naval base at Magdalena Bay"
says the organ OF the naval revolution,
as a confession Of the weakness OF the
entire plan Of basing the larger Pacific
feet upon the Western coast Of the United
states" We wonder If the administration
is really anxious to buy more foreign
territory. II so, It's a pity there is no
other constitution than that Of Mexico in
the way.
Is the dispatch Of the feet TO the Pacific
intended, among other purposes, naval,
political and spectacular, 10 demonstrate
the necessity Of acquiring a new naval
base in Lower California?

The nigh proportion Of sulphur In the

disadvantage. and will probably veto any
successful competition OF the imported
article on even terms with the high
grade products of the American coal
fields. Because OF this large proportion
OF sulphur, coke from Nova Scotia coal
is not suitable for foundry purposes. and.
therefore, the greatest of B0stou's coke
