THE MoAlcAN GETS ORDERS.
G C.mmander Clark Instructed to Prepare
for Sea.

for Sea.
VALLEJO, CAL, Jan. 9.-Orders have
been given to Commander Clark of the
United States ship Mohican to make all
needed preparations on board his ship
for sea. Shortly afterwards the Mo-
hican reported ready and the navy yard
tug steamed alongside, taking the Mo
hican in tow, towing her out in mid
stream, where she was moored to one of
the buoys. Fires are banked, and the
steam kept up ready to sail in a mo-
ment's notice. Considerable anxiety
continues to manifest itself among navy
officers regarding the Hawaiian situa-
ton and fears are expressed that trouble
has occurred. This OF inion has gained
credence from the reticence on the part
of the Washington officials. Captain
III. G. Cochrane, recently detached from
the marine barracks, Mare island, will
leave on the next steamer touching
Honolulu to take command of the ma
rine guards on board the flagship Phila-
delphia now at Honolulu.
