Strategic Importance of Lit

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

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

Mexico and Peru plus a modern purpose
quite undreamed of In tho centuries gone.

clever engineering work. 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

"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. The men whom ho
hired In Newfoundland benefited more

THE TACITURN JOFFRE
Qualities of Him Who Is Hated as

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

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.
For example, on the Atlantic coast the
catch of sturgeon fell from ".Ooo.ooo pounds
In leKi thun 1 .rfiO.oflO In IS venrs On tbM
Pacific coast a catch of over 3,000,ouo , able Incident Is reported from the village
