England Is Alarmed Mt the Hostile Atti-

LONDON, Dec. s. - The important dis
patch from Vienna setting forth that the
Russian government had declared IL Inn
perative that the Kilia arm Of tho Danube
should be made navigable, the object Of
which demand was 20 secure the exemp-
tion Of the Kilia branch from the control

attract renewed attention to the serious

mand that the kilia mouth of the Danube
be made navignble is the most alarming OF

been SO numerous Of late. Reterencei is also
made in The Globes article TO the hostile

WASHINGTON, Dec. s.-Minister Thurs
ton, the representative Of the provisional
government of Hawaii, furnished the sur
prise in Hawaiian affairs by quietly de-
parting from the city for the west, and il
Is surmised that he is quite likely to go to
Honolulu before returning to Washington.
His secret departure excited considerable
comment, and there was much speculation
as TO It's significance.
II can be stated. however, that his depar-
ture does not mean any break in the recog-
milton this government heretofore has al
ways accorded him as the representative Of
the de facto government Of Hawaii. Mr..
Thurston was not given his passports, nor
was there any interruption in the aneni-
ties which have been observed in the outer
diplomatic relations between the minister
and Secretary Gresham. Before leaving
Mr. Thurston and Minister Of Legation
Hastings were both at the state depart
ment They said they had been cordially
received.
From Chicago, Mr.. Thurston will ~ TO
San Francisco. and his ultimate destina-
tion may be Honolulu, where he would
have an opportunity to orally advise the
Hawaiian government.
