PROTECTION NEED URGED liver Is Held of Strategic Import ance, Xot Adequately Defended Sow, but Unsuitable for Big Warships. Or.ECOXIAX N'ETTS BrREAU. "Wash ington, Feb. 12. The mouth of the Co lumbia Elver should be adequately pro tected, both by land and by sea, and la not so protected at the present time, is the conclusion of the Helm Is'aval Board, which recently visited the Pa cific Coast. But, In the opinion of the board, the Naval defense at the mouth of the Columbia should be confined, at this time, to a submarine and avia tion base. The board is not in favor of establishing a first-class Naval base on the Columbia. On the other hiind. the board con cludes that there should be two thor oughly developed Navy-yards on the Pacific Coast, having treble the facil ities of the existing- yards. It recom mends the vast expansion of the Puget Sound yard and the. establishment of a new yard on deep water in San Fran cisco Bay. An immediate appropria tion of $2,500,000 is recommended for the Puget Sound yard. Submarine Base Recommended. Speclfio recommendations for a sub marine and aviation base at the mouth .of the Columbia River will be em bodied in a. subsequent report to be filed by the Helm board. The report already submitted to Congress deals primarily with first-class navy-yards. "The commission examined carefully the Columbia River with a view to de termine its suitability for the estab lishment of a. navy-yard thereon." says the Helm board report. "Strategically, the mouth of the Columbia River is well located for such purposes, but as n. possible base for a fleet its physical disadvantages must be considered. "The actual depth of water over the bar at mean low water is now about 40 f'-et, but the channel through the Jet- n: is an exposeo. one, ana in stormy weather the ocean swell Is unusually heavy. There are limitations on this) narDor as regards the location of a navy-yard and the basing of a fleet. "The fortifications at the mouth of the river are at the present time not of. the first order. The anchorage depths for deep-draft ships sufficiently far inside the jetties to minimize dan ger from direct fire from the sea are comparatively restricted. Suitable Sites Restricted. "The character of the land on the north bank of the river is such that even though the deep-water area were sufficient its development for naval purposes would be practically prohibi tive in cost on account of grading and filling involved. The south shore of . the river offers better opportuni ties in the way of comparatively level ground, but is restricted as to suita ble anchorage for deep-draft vessels. "As compared with other available locations, the physical characteristics at the mouth of the Columbia River place it at a disadvantage as regards its selection for the establishment of a navy-yard of the first class. It is inferior in depth of channel approaches, protected location, ample and deep an chorage ground, and possibilities of defense, as compared with the site oc cupied by the already established navy yard on Puget' Sound." The Helm board indorses the con clusions of the Selfrldge and Mahan commissions, which investigated the Columbia River prior to the establish ment of the navy-yard on Puget Sound. It then reviews the great commercial development of the country, adding: "The essential facts, however, remain as in 1890, and the adequate and ef fective defense of this whole Northwest country is still dependent In & large degre upon the adequacy of the naval base) facilities in Puget Sound. Colombia's Location Stratesrle Its next report on submarine and avia tion bases on the Pacific' Coast." STEEL THIEF FRUSTRATED Load of 2200 Pounds Taken From Gteblscli & Joplin Yard. Seven lengths of steel, each 16 feet long and weighing in the aggregate about 2200 pounds, were the plunder selected by a thief yesterday morning.

"The Columbia River has a good strategic location, and is the natural outlet of a large and populous terri tory with commercial interests of great importance. Both from the military and naval point of view It is entitled tq and should receive every considera tion in being afforded adequate pro tection from hostile navies. "Its physical and defensive charac teristics, however, as compared with those possessed by the Puget Sound Navy-yard, coupled with the naval base necessities of that territory and its Alaskan connections leave no doubt whatever in the opinion of the com' mission as to the desirability of de veloping the existing navy-yard on Puget Sound in preference to establish ing an additional navy-yard on the Columbia River. "The strategical advantage of the Columbia River as an operating base for submarines and as an aviation sta tion have not been overlooked, and the commission will give further consid eration to that region in submitting When Bowels Are Sluggish Use Paraffine Paraf f ine Oil Used for Con stipation Puts Pep in Lazy Bowels.

LAND BEING RESTORED GERMANS TAKE ADVANTAGE OF PAUSE IN ROIMAMA. Extensive Measures Adopted for Begin, ning Spring Planting Hospitals Equipped and Reorganised. BERLIN. Feb. 12. (By wireless to Sayville, N. Y.) The pause in the fight ing caused by extreme cold and violent snow storms along the .Roumanian front has given the troops of the cen tral powers an opportunity to repair the bad roads in Roumania. and to re construct bridges and railroads, says the Overseas News Agency. The rail road traffic there is again in full swing on almost all lines. Refugees arebeing transported back to their villages, extensive measures have been taken to start planting in the Spring, and factories are being re opened. Steps also are being taken to in crease the number of hospitals. At Buzeu, where there were three Rou manian hospitals containing altogethe 600 beds, there now are 11 hospital with 2469 beds. When the troops of the central powers entered Fokshanl It contained only one hospital with beds, and was in an intolerable condi tion. The number of beds there now ha been increased to 2500, some of which are in schools and other public build Ings. Each of . these . is equipped with Progress of the War. Considerable fighting between the British and Germans in the Ancre re gion of France continues.

At Serre. midway between Beaucourt and Puisieux, the Germans deilverea an attack against the British, but were repulsed, according to the British War Office. Berlin, on the other hand, says the British in attacks against wrecked German trenches from Serre to the riv er were repulsed, suffering heavy cas ualties. It is admitted, however, that trench southeast of Serre. which had been rendered unserviceable, was evac bated, but before the British offensive was launched. On the remainder of the fronts, bom bardments and minor operations have taken place. On the Russian front the Germans have attacked the Russian lines at several points and succeeded on two sectors in entering Russian trenches only later to be driven out. according to Petrograd.

An appeal to the Cubans not to plunge their country into another revolution has been sent to Havana by Secretary Lan sing. Aroused to the realization that the contested presidential election in Cuba already had reached the Incipient stage of rebellion, the State Depart ment decided to issue to the people an urgent injunction to await the outcome of the voting and to abide by the deci sion of their courts. The communication was sent to the American Minister with the instruc tions to have it published throughout the island. The Cubans were reminded in the message that close elections are not uncommon in all countries, and that in the United States the selection of the winning candidate often is determined only after a contest, the case of Tilden and Hayes being cited as notable. Appeal Is Not Received. It had been reported that the opposi tion party had appealed to the United States to supervise the special election that has been called for February 14, but at the State Department it was denied that such request had been re ceived. Through the American Minister at Havana, it was made clear that the American Government would regret any necessity for forcible interference again in Cuban affairs, but it was inti mated that the United States could not countenance the recurrence of civil war. Minister Gonzales at Havana notified the State Department today of revolu tionary activity in Cuba, but added that President Menocal appears to have the little rebellion under control. Seven Lieutenants charged with com plicity in the plot are being held. Dr. Zayas' Followers "lamed. Responsibility for the revolt Is thrown by the Menocal administration upon political leaders of the opposi tion, whose candidate for the Presi dency is Dr. Alfredo De Zayas. The special election in the Santa Clara province, necessary to determine the result of the Presidential election, will be held February 14. but certain men of the De Zaytas faction allege that even if De Zayas is elected. President Menocal will oppose his seating. Reports from the Minister lead the State Department to believe that the revolt will not become widespread. Business interests both in Cuba and in the United States are concerned, be cause it is feared that If general revolt Is begsjin an enormous loss may be caused by the destruction of the sugar cane fields. The cane is now dry. and its burning would be easy. MURDER AID CONFESSED CANADIAN SAYS HE WAS PRESENT WHEN MAZIE COLBERT WAS SLAIN. Involved in war. members of former Battery F. Minnesota.
