now hold the fort at this naval sta tion But $21626.12 has been spent on this property in A years for repairs
 and the secretary>~how reports the buildings in good condition. It has been abandoned for naval purposes so far as the secretary of the navy can
 do so without legislative action. This was done soon after congress refused to pass legislation to abandon 1t. The present cost of maintenance of this
 station is a mere bagatelle as conn pared with the expense which the see- retary of the navy proposes In dis
 mantling it. And why dismantle it at all?
 Would Be Without coaing Station.
 The eastern defenses of New York lie off New London harbor. There Is no coaling station west until you get to Brooklyn. There is no coaling sta tion east until you get to Narragan- sett. In the event of war any fleet protecting New York from the east would rendezvous at New London har-
 bOr which can float the navies of the
 world. These eastern forts are now supplied from New London This sta-
 tion lies within sight of the harbor and but two miles from it. It does not require scientific knowledge to appre- ciate the strategic value of this station. It has been said that strategy was on- ly common sense and that is all that 1 ask should be applied to this proposi- tion. We ought to profit somewhat by our experience during the Spanish war. The Belknap board appreciated the value of this station to the navy Their reasons and arguments have never
 been controverted. They cannot be successfully. The action proposed is not only unjust but unreasonable and unsound as military proposition.
 Connecticut stands ready, as she always has to bear her part of the burdens of the national defense. Her gift of this tract of land is only one of the many acts which have been
 demonstrated by her patriotism and unselfishness. She seeks at all times to cooperate with the federal gov ernment and not to defy it. but this proposed action is so unwarranted by any test that you may choose to apply it is se founded upon injustice, that its l adoption will work a graveF injury than the mere abolishment of what
 misguided and uninformed persons ! choose to call a useless naval station
 If this is proposed under the guise 1 of economy, great disappointment is il l store for the advocates of the proposi- i ton. If it is deemed as not being es-
 sential to our military establishment
 l say to you that if war does come
 and may God forbid it, that in the hur-
 ry of urgent and vital necessity a coal 1 ing station will be improvised at ol
 near this point, and the very lack O.
 it at Q critical time will expose Lont
 Island sound to invasion with conse-
 quences that I do not want to con
 template.

While her husband is away from home on a long trip, she plans to become suddenly i'll and die; this is successful. and enables her to appear under another name. She next ensnares a wealthy nobleman, Sir Mi- chael, and at last sees her dream about to be realized When Sir Robert re- turns he penetrates her disguise and threatens to expose the ruse.
