WEI HAI WEI
This port is situated on the northern side of the Shantung Promontory, 40 miles east of the Treaty port of Chefoo. The harbour is commodious, and affords good holding ground. It is the chief rendezvous of the Pei Yang Squadron. On Lu Kung Tao, an island sheltering the harbour on the northern side, are a Gunnery School, Naval College, Naval Yard (where minor repairs are executed), Naval Hospital, and other government establishments. The port is well defended by numerous batteries mounting English and Krupp B. L. guns of heavy calibre. There is telegraphic communication with Chefoo.
