TO ESTABLISH FoRrEIcATIoNs
So as TO Command Entrance TO Ches-

During the hearings before tn.

project to establish a fortification 81

peske Bay.
Among those Intercepted on the
subject was General Crozier, who ex.
pressed the opinion that the entrance
| should be closed, if it can be done al
reasonable expense. He believed that
il would be possible for an enemy
with 100, 900 troops to get into the
Chesapeake Bay and land at Annap.
oils, or some other place within a
short distance of Washington and
march overland.
A fortifcation of the lower Ches-
apeake would prevent such a landing
or compel the enemy to use the open
sea. He said, incidentally, that he
believed Washington "could be cap
tured within month, if any power,
or combination of powers, of Europe
which had the command of the sea
should think il worth while to try
it," He added that he was not an
alarmist, by any means, but he went
on to say to the committee:
They have the Atlantic Ocean as a
splendid highway. Marine transpcr-
tation is the very best kind of trans
portation that you can have, the cas-
lest and least expensive, and the most
expeditions, if you are considering
large bodies Of troops with large
amounts of material. The fuel charge
for water transportation in good
tramp steamers does not amount to
one-two-hundried-a -fiftieth part of
cent per ton per mile.
lone cannot help but be impressed
in our own distant possessions with
the tremendous amount of people, and
forage and food, and clothing, and
blankets and harness and wagons, and
everything of that sort, which can
come out of the inside of vessel of
very moderate tonnage, or
5000 or 1000. 1t is a splendid means
of transportation, and the distance is
only ten days for a vessel of very
moderate speed, and you can carry a
thousand men on vessel of 5000
tons capacity without any trouble at
all. There are any number of vessels
in existence to be had, and there is no
resistance on this side against a we'll
equipped force of hundred thousand
men,.
He also expressed the view that
the present 14-inch gun, which is good
for the penetration of twelve inches
of armor at about 13, 600 yards, would
serve as an admirable battery, and
he believed that four or six sKch
guns would be sufficient with a ~

PACIFIC CABLE BROKEN.
Until Repaired Messages to Orient
Must be Sent Around World.

The Pacific cable of the CONNER
cial Cable Company is reported to be
broken somewhere in the stretch OF
1000 miles between the islands of
Midway and Guam.
The break is attributed to the chat
ing of the cable on the sea bottom,
which in that region is full of reefs.
The Pacific cable, opened in 1902, is
$500 miles long, and is the only di-
rect Geographic route between the
United States and the Philippines,
China and Japan.
Until the break is repaired messages
between the countries named will

pany's steamer Restorer has sailed
from Victoria, B. c., and will en-
deavor to locate the break by electric
