sCaLEY AND THE BALTIMORE.
The Captain Would Like to Be Sent to
the Chinese Station.

the Chinese Station.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 5.-Captain Schley,
it is said, has asked Secretary Tracy to
allow him to remain in command of the
cruiser Baltimore, and has intimated
that he would like to 60 to the China
station with her. His wishes will prob
ably be gratifed, as there is need for
more ships on that station, where they
may be wanted at any moment, on
account of the anti-missionary riots,
liable to break out. 1t is understood
one or two more vessels besides the
Baltimore will be sent to China, soon,
and probably the Yorktown and Ben
nington will be selected for this duty,
as most of the trouble there is in river
towns, where vessels of the Baltimore's
size cannot go, and where smaller vessels
have to be depended on.
NOT GOING TO ASIA.
Later-Captain Schley will leave
Washington tomorrow for San Fran
cisco, to resume command of the Balti-
more, which vessel will continue on the
Pacific station for some time to come.
There is no truth in the report that she
will go to the Asiatic station.
HEADING OFF CoLLIERs.
The navy department. just now Is try
ing to head off several colliers started
out from New York, during the recent
Chilean war preparations, for the Pacific.
There were four ships in all, carrying q
total of is, 600 tons of coal. One OF them
has been intercepted at Montevideo and
ordered to discharge her cargo there and
return to the United States. The sec
ond one is expected at the same port in
few days, and efforts are being made
to learn the whereabouts of the other
two, 80 as to reduce the expense OF
transport as much as possible.
