JhPiN'S PRESENT
NAVAL STRENGTH
DANIEL LOGAN.

TOXIC, March Some reliable fig
ures are now at hand showing the pres
ent strength of the japanese navy,
compared with its strength when the
war broke out with Russia. The totals
may be briefly stated. viz: 157 vessels
of all descriptions, representing a ton
mage of 2s3.242 tons, before sthe war,
and 204 vessels of 5I5,082 tons at the
present day.
Further scrutiny of the figures shows
that Japan today possesses more than
twice the number OF battleships she
had before the war, third as many
armored cruisers, three more other
cruisers. nearly three times as many
destroyers, but three fewer torpedo
boats.
Critics of the expansion program are
naturally asking why, in the face Of
these figures. which indicate an adj
vance OF fully 90 per cent, which in
ciude new construction, the government
should persist in making appropriations
for the army and navy more than 80
per cent Of the total national expendi-
ture for the next fiscal year.
The present strength Of the japanese
navy is as follows: BattIeships IS, 49,
ISL tons: arm0red cruisers l.. 130.683
tons: other cruisers A., 165.252 tons;
destrovers s.. 20,50S tons; torpedo boats
II. 725s tons; total 204 ships, 5l5.082
tons.

RAINS CLEAR THE
HARBOR OF OIL

The heavy rains Of the past few days
have practically cleared the harbor Of
the floating film Of oil which for weeks
has been accommodating on its surface.
For long time the masters of vessels
going in and out Of this harbor have
been urging upon the Superintendent
of Public Works and others in au-
thority the very great danger that
such state Of things creates in the
harbor The oil comes from the oil
carrying vessels which discharge their
cargoes here for the companies sup
plying fuel oil for use in the islands.
This oil floating on the surface of the
harbor spreads film on the piles that
support the wharves, the rise and fall
Of the tide making the film cover a
vertical section Of each pile about two
feet long. similar film is spread
over every other part Of the wharf that
is in the water. The result of this
is, it Is claimed TO add greatly to the

away from the waikiki end Of the
harbor. 1t is claimed that the authori-
ties around Monterey bay. whence this
oil is shipped, by the enforcement Of
strict regulations, have prevented the
surface OF that bay from being smear
ed with oil, and that if II can be done
there, IL can be done here, and strong
effort is being made to secure that II
shall be done. Oil vessels returning
there from here and other ports in

but into an artificial pond from which
the water seeps back into the bay, but

Pearl Harbor, on the shores of which
sits Honolulu. the only large city Of
the Hawaiian group. is one of the great
harbors OF the world, and is practical
" at present without a guard Of any
sort. The harbor itself is ten miles
square and the water has an average
depth of about sixty feet.
All about the harbor and back OF the
city Of Honolulu lie the mountains, so
that all view Of ships lying within
the harbor is shut off from those at
sea. The elevation of the mountains
about the city and it's harbor Is so
great that there is no chance even for
mortars to be effectual over them, nor
would their steepness permit the haul
ing of modern cannon TO the SUBMITS.
President Tyler, in 1S41, first gave
notice to the world that the American
government was looking after Hawaii
and recognized thereby that in these
islands were the natural outposts and
defenses Of the nation from invasion

THE NAVAL PLANS FOR

A Bill Now Pending to Appropriate Three Mil.
lions of Dollars With Seven Hundred
Thousand Available at Once.

The following article appears in the
Washington Post of March 3:
Pearl Harbor, the very KEY to "tbe
crossroads of the Pacific" where Ho-
nolulu sits smiling in the semitropic
sunlight, will not be left longer un-
protected by the American govern
ment. if the House Committee on
Naval Affairs can induce Congress to
come around to its way of thinking.
It is known that President Roosevelt
and other high officials of the govern
ment have been interested in having
suitable fortifications. which might
protect this great harbor Of the mid
Pacific, erected as soon as possible
Several days ago Representative
Bates. Of Pennsylvania, after a. con-
ference al the White House, fntroduc-
ed a bill asking Congress to appro-
pirate 100000. with 100000 of that
amount Immediately available, for the
fertilization of Pearl Harbor.
ORDERS BILL REPORTED.
Yesterday the committee ordered the
bill to be favorably reported to the
House, and, in addition to such ac-
ton, agreed upon a report. which is
couched in language which shows that
the committee believes that there is
strong need of immediate action.
In the judgment of the committee
says the report, ''the new developments
on the Pacific and among the nations
that border its shores, made it inn
perative that a strong operating base
be established for our navy at Pearl
Harbor without further delay.
AN enemy in possession of Hawaii
could harass and threaten our entire
Western coast; on the other hand. /
with our own fleet operating from a
wel-equipped base at Pearl Harbor !
no fleet from the Orient would find it /
to threaten our coast, be-
cause Of the stronghold left in the rear,
and the prohibitive distance from their /
coaling base.
"A naval base in Pearl Harbor is
not designed primarily for the protec-
ton of Hawaii; its main purpose is
to form a buffer of defense for our
entire Pacific Coast and to make pos
'ible our supremacy on the Pacific"
The fact that the committee imme-
liateiy after considering the report on
he bill ordered 1.-THE bill-favorably
'eported to the House, is taken to
mean that there is need of terrifying

SHOULD SELL CUBA RICE.

s. s. Lees, Of Havana, in New Or
leans Times-Democrat:
1.-THE business men Of New Orleans
viii lose the opportunity Of their lives
TO secure the rice grade Of cuba, IN
less they eyert themselves in that d.
rection. The island republic does not
raise a pound Of rice and depends for
its supply upon China and India. This
country is barely IS miles from Key
West and Cuba is the natural market
for its rice product. I cannot see why
the merchants here have not realized
it. The best thing that could happen
u Louisiana and the south would be
the annexation of Cuba. or the estab-
Iishment of free trade between il and
the United States.
THE rice interests Of the south are
greater and Of more Importance than
the sugar interests and what damage
would be done the latter would be more
than reeouped by the former and the
expectation Of other things. If Cuba
were annexed, every foot Of lumber
which goes there now from Nova Scotia
and British markets would come from
these piny woods; every pound Of cot
ton for the manufac ture Of cloth would
come from this valley: every pound Of
grain, every bit Of produce and mer-
chandise now imported from Germany.
France, England, China and India
would come from the south OF the cen
tral states and through this port.
can well remember when there was
free trade in 1892 how the ships Of the

business and every merchant had o.

Those interested in Honolulu har-

it can be prevented here.
