PEARL HAReoR A GIBRALTAR.
Most Strongly Fortified Naval Base
Now Nearly Completed.

Washington, March lI.-By mid
summer or early fall 1t is expected the
work OF constructing the approaches
TO Pearl harbor will be completed. and
tken the United States will have I'm the
Pacific national defense as important
and as impregnable as that of Great
Britain at Gibraltar. When completed
the work will have cost about 10000
900. The channel ieading'into the har-
Dor has already been cut TO a depth Of
thirty feet below low tide. and will
thus pass some of the cruisers of the
Pacific station. The cutting is TO con-
tinuc until there will be enough wa
ter to float the greatest of the dread
noughts.
Pearl harbor is to be the most
strongly fortified naval base in the Pa
clnc. If not in the whole world. The
harbor is landlocked, and is distant
from Honolulu twelve miles. When
the channels to the east. the middle
and the west locks have been dredged.
the harbor will be large enough to float
the combined navies of the world. The
work or construction has been under
way for more than twelve years. and
Il was FASTENED materially after the
Spanish war and the occupation by the
United States OF the Philippine Islands.
