Should Japan selzo tho Island posses sions of Germany In tho Pacific, sho will, at ono stroke, gain nn Immense atratcglo advantage In caso of conflict with tho United States. Germany would not be tho only loser, and our trade routes to and from tho Orient, cither by way of San Francisco or tho Panama Canal, would be Imperilled as they nre not now to tho same degree. We have plenty of cause for concern. Bo writes a specialist not so Bure of Jopan's pacific Intentions In tho Pacific, and his especial concern Is over Guam, our little cable station In tha mid-ocean. Ho notes that wo took tho Island with tho thought of turning It Into a coaling station for our ships bound to and from the United States to tho Phil. Ipplnes. A few years later Guam logic ally became a halting place for tho trans pacific cables, and now that It will lie right In the trade routo of our modern ships of commerce apccdlng to and from tha l-'ar East via tho Panama Canal thh lonely Island 'Will havo a renewed signifi cance to us. To protect our future mer chant craft and to give us a strategic point of vantago In the vast Pacific, Guam becomes again what It was in tho distant day of Spain's sccrot, selfish trading be tween the Philippines and tho kingdom of Mexico and Peru plus a modern purpose quite undreamed of In tho centuries gone.

United States propel ty cannot be salvaged and tho Gov ernment pays' no extra reward for gal lant work performed by Its employes. Tho saving of tho Potomac was a dar ing engineering feat. The rescue of tho tug was effected only after the most dllllcult kind of work in tho Ice fields off Newfoundland. ON EnitAND OF MErtCV. The Potomac, tho llnest tug In tho navy, was dispatched to Newfoundland from Norfolk, Va., January tS to cut out the American schooner Hiram Lowell, of Bucksport, Me., which va8 fast In tho Ice. The crew of the Potomac also re- najl force that may be brought against , eclved orders to liberate tho schooner them In short, Guam Is to be a naval station In its entirety, and upon tho ma rines, as "t propel ly should, will rest the ri"5prns,lblllty of ma'ntalnlng the perma nent defenses and Of using them to good effect in the hour of battle. The Island Is about 30 miles long and has an average width of less than seven, but even ho it might seem like o. pretty big undertak ns to deferd the whole of thf coast line. It would, Indeed, call for a good many more guns and lighting men If It were not for what nature has dono towaid s'mpllfylng the problem. Gen erally the shores of Guam are forbidding, the volcanic cliffs rising abruptly right out of the sea to he'ghts varying from COO to more than COO feet. An enemy could find mi place of lodgment or a likely beach for landing except within the limits covered by tho butteries that will, be planted about San Luis d'Apra. And thero the work of the marines will bo made easier by tho narrowness of tho fi igle channel that leads from tho sea through the menacing reefs Into the shel t' red ha en. ISOLATION A PROTECTION The isolation of Guam, lying 1300 miles east of tho Philippines, is unother source of piotection, because any threatening squadron must come equally far if not farther ftoni Us own base of operations and the nearest drydocks It can com mand. To Invito grave injury at such a distance from facilities of repair is not tlie courpo likely to bo pursued by a tli'iimhtful commander, and heie again natuto has helped to mako Guam just so much moic effective for our purpose as a n.iwil advance base from which our fighting ships In tho fur Pacific can be dispatched to the bost strategla ad- antai,o for tho scouring of u vldo zone In that part of tho world.

Thr Potomuc r'neod ynv of Tsln-iiig on February S and two days later sailed n search of tho H.ram Lowell. Imme diately tho rescuing tug run Into ico and was blown out to sea In a blizzard, to become caught In tho lco herself. Consul Gould had given the captain of tho tug explicit directions us to the locat'on of tho Lowell, and vvhen he did not hear from her In a tew days he ordered look outs along the coast to keep a sharp watch for the Potomac on Fb 'u y 9 ho received a report that sho was fust in the In dri U' 1 The next day, Tcbruary 10, tho tug was re ported at rtocho Harbor, at tho entrance to Bonne Bay. Immod atcly Consul Gould secured 40 men and dispatched two tons of food to the crew of tno tug. It was necessary for the 10 men to make two trips with tho fooJ, as each carrier was ablo to carry only about 30 pounds over tho jagged Ice. Mr Gould was confined to his hod nt Bay of Islands with a badly Injured foot, but when ho learned of the location of the Potoinio and her predicament he left for Bonne Bav, traveling on snowshoes, and arriving February 17. Upon his arrival he found that the offi cers and crew had abandoned tho Poto mac, leaving everything but light effects aboard the seemingly doomed craft. It was necessary to get tho crew of the tug bad; to Bay of Islands, and for three days tho consul put tho 37 men through a course In snowshoeing, ns the trip had to be made afoot, and over the snow covered mountains. After a two weeks' snowshoe trip tho party arrived at Bay of Islands, February i'S, having been just two weeks. ORDURED TO IUJSCUn TUG On the day of his arrival back at Bay of Islands with tho crew of tho Potomuu, he wired tho Secretary of the Navy of the condition of affairs, and he was ordered, by telegraph, to savo the Potomac. It was a most unusual order, as tho Navy Department had no reason to believe that Consul Gould knew any thing about seafaring life. Naval experts of Newfoundland declared It would be impossible to Bave the vessel; that she was sure to be crushed by the Ice in the Straits of Belle Isle. "But I had sailed my own sloop con siderably In those waters In tho two years I have been stationed ut Bay of Islands, and felt that tho Potomac wasn't going through tho Straits of Bello Isle." de clared Mr. Gould In Boston the other day. "My knowledge of her position in tho Ice, n close study of the drift of the Ico and tho other conditions that prevailed gave me confidence that the Potomac could be saved." First of all tho work was divided Into. threo Jobs. It was necessary to get men aboard the Potomac nnd keep them there, so half a dozen were engaged to board the Icebound craft, build and maintain fires In her boilers and prevent tho loot ing of the tug. A shore crew was secured to provide fuel, and several hundreds of cords of green and dried blrchwood was carried on board for consumption. The Newfoundlander went aboard March 17 and did excellent work until May 5, when Mr Gould appeared on the scene In person. QUELLS MUTINY ON POTOMAC. Upon his arrival, however, tho crew mutinied. They apparently foresaw tlio escape of tlio tug with the breaking up of tho lee, and they made unieasonablu demands They were not satisfied with the pay agreed upon, although tho wages might bo cousldcied extraordinary. How ever, he stood them off all alone until May 21, when they surrendered. Tlie second part of the expedition con sisted In making arrangements to hue a vessel pkk up thu Potomac the inoiiu nt Bell Isle, whero she would bo crushed by tho gigantic mountains of Ice. The other part of tho general plan con sisted of getting coal to tho Potomac, nnd a small schooner was secured at Port nux Busqucs and laden with 100 tons of ronl. This schooner was equipped with everything that would bo needed aboard the Potomac, but dltliculty was encoun tered In securing a crow. Finally Mr. Gould secured un engineer, and eighteen men who were willing to risk their lives In the tlcacherous lco fields, and after traveling 100 miles through tho lco the schooner got to within three miles of tho frozen tug. Then ensued n three weeks' battle with the Ice. but on May C, the relief expedition got alontrsld.j nnd tho schooner remained near tho Government boat until May 21 when the mutiny aboard tho lat ter ended and the work of. transferring tho coal wns beiun. It was nccessarv to haul tbo coal over the Ice for three dnvs. On Mav 24 Htem was gotten un and the next dav. Mnv 23. Conoul Gould took charge of the pilot house. TURNED ovrcrt TO NAVY YATtD. "It wns found thnt the engines of tho Potomac were hardly tlam"i,pil " relates Consul Gould, "nn'1 wo lmni"'1lctplv made hurviorl nlnnn to gt clear of thi Ico, which wp did flint dnv. six dayH Int-"- v arrlvd t Port mix Bp.xiiiii'S, nnd no time was lfit In overhnnllng the IioIIts nnd mn- ehlwrv Wf then took on rpM nnd olinr provisions nnd sailed fnr tb" Unltd St-ts on .Tun" s. under our own steam and with out convoy. "Wo brought the Potomac Into New York Harbor on Juno 9, and T officially turned her over to tho naval officers at the Brooklyn Navy yard. She was Im mediately placed In drydock, nnd after ward sent to the Portsmouth, N. II. Navy Yard for repairs Her machinery how ever was in excellent condlt'on. and her hull practically undamaged, but there was plenty of ooportun'ty for minor repairs." That ended Consul Gould's connection with tho Potomac, although he was called to Washington, where ho mado his official rcpoit to Secretary of tho Navy Daniels and received tho compliments nnd thanks of that official for the work ho had per formed. But there wus no pecuniary le wnrd for Mr. Gould.

Like William tho Silent and Moltko, who wus "silent In seven languages," General Joffre Is notably taciturn, and he lias been silent through n laborious military carter of 41 years. He Is now 61, but still In the full vigor of his strength of body and mind and by far tho most noteworthy figure which this surprls.ng war has so far disclosed. Clomenccau shnrply criticised him and the others of tho General Staff, but he, too, hns reversed his judgment s'nee tho mobilization proved their foresight and complete organ zallon of tho military io sourtes.

Lord Roberts, who wrote a book on WASHINGTON ept Iff. - Hugh M. Smith, chief of the Bureau of Fisheries, has recommende-d to Secretary of Com merce Redfield that every State in whose waters sturgeon exist or havo existed pro hibit their capture or salo for a period of at least ten years. "Owing to tho decimation of tho schools of breeding tlsh and to peculiarities in spawning habits It has been found Im possible to Inaugurate a sturgeon cul turo anywhere In this country." said Commissioner Smith. "Attempts at arti ficial propagation have proved utter fail ures wherever tried. Tlio expenditure of considerable money has sometimes failed to yield a single batch of eggs suitable for Incubation. "A possible relief may be afforded through the transplanting In our wateis of joung sturgeon fioin other countries. A supply of oung fish of a very desir able species Inhabiting tlie Dauubn and tho Caspian Sea has been offered by the Rumanian Government. 'These target and Inoffensho fish of our seaboards, const livers and Interior wateia wero for years considered to bo not only valueless but nuisances, and whenever they became entangled In tho fishermen's nets thoy wero knocked on the head and thrown back Into tho water. Even In the present generation wc bave seen tho shores of the Potomac River In tho vicinity of Mount Vernon lined with the decomposing ca-tasscs of these magnificent fish, witnesses to the cruelty, stupidity und profligacy of man, The samo thing lias been observed every where In the country. 'When fishermen awakened to the fact that the eggs of the sturgeon were valu able as caviar and the flesh as food, another senseless chapter In the history nf this nsh was written. There followed tho most reckless and senseless fishing Imaginable, with the result that In a com paratively few years the best and most productive waters were depleted, and wliat should have been mado a peimanent fishery of great profit was destroyed. Even after the great value of tho stur geon began to be appreciated by every one the immature and unmarketable fish incidentally caught in seines, gill nets nnd pound nets rcceiicd no protection what ever In most waters and wero ruthlessly destroyed as nuisances, the decline of tlie surgeon being thus doubly accelerated.
