RESERVE COAL STATION.
Capt. Doyle of Norfolk Navy Yard,
Tells of Advantages of Location
at Hampton.

Hampton, Va, April 2G.-That IN
Immense Government coal reserve sta
ton may be established by act Of
Congress on the shores Of Hampton
Roads at some time i'm the near fn-
ture is claimed by Capt. Robert NJ.
Doyle, commander Of the orfolk Navy
Yard. Captain Doyle declares that
the Norfolk Navy Yard is now prob
ably the largest and best equipped in
the country; that the Norfolk Naval
Hospital is the largest institution Of
/ its kind, and that The Roads bids far
soon TO become the safest and best
naval station.
"There is one feature Of 4 great ma
val base" the Captain is quoted as
SAYING, (which we still lack, and which
feature alone, if established, will mean
the greatest possible addition to lhe
value OF lllt TludllS is' Il iioNo' ''h''"'"''
and will also be worth millions OF dol
lars TO the communities on both sides
Of the great harbor. This feature IS
the establishment by an act OF Con-
eress Of a coal reserve station some-
where on The banks Of Hampton Roads
"!5uch q coal reserve would insure
ample supply of fuel to navy ships
at all times, regardless of strikes,
shortage of local dealers, insufficient
transportation facilities or other un-
desirable features which might arse
It would also tend to make Hampton
Roads frequent and regular coaling
station, would thus bring ships into
this port much more often than nj
present, to corresponding advantage
to all surrounding cities and towns,
provided of course, these places sue
coed in making their sanitary eondl-
tons such that naval medical auth
critics see fit to recommend shore
leave for men"
