MAY MAKE WAR ON FRANCE.
Hostilitics May Break Out Between
China and France,

Victoria. b. c.. special: Thomas
Wilton, a well known India tea planter
just arrived from Siam. is authority
for the statement that war between
China and France may break out at
any moment, the Chinese Government
finding in the French occupation Of
Siam an excuse for which they have
long been looking Ia wipe out the score
left standing since the Tonquin affair.
Among ali classes" he says, there is
n desire for war. China has unnum-
bored military forces, who can be put
In the ED at any moment. and who.
while not we'll up in military tactics,
can still make it decidedly unpleasant
for any nation. Another fact which
seems TO be generally overlooked is
that these hordes can be supplemented
with a goodly army under skilled Eu-
ropean officers. The public feeling IN
China against France is bitter enough
TO force the Governor to action. This.
however, will not be necessary. as
the highest officials appear ready to
take II hand in the Siamcse affair.
Just before W. left the Chinese feet al
Hong Kong got up steam, and while
they were under sealed orders it was
known they were bound for Mcnam
River. and hat the exact situation at
bangkok was to he made a subject of
inquiry. Both China and Siam have
fairly good ships. and China has
several torpedo boats that might make
things interesting in the Menam
to the French squadron. The result is
hard to predict, but ! can say this, in
Asia generally the feeling is that
France would in the long run get de-
cidedly the worst of the bargain. even
if not compelled tocopc with any other
force than that of China and Siam
comhined."

Auckland dispatch of last night.
The regular messenger Of the Mer-
chants Exchange, who put off in a
small boat "a s,on as the cutter was
sighted thi- morning. made an attempt
to board her at the entrance to the
harbor. Capt Munger Of the Corwin
not only refused to give him any infor-
nation. bat also refused 10 permit his
boat to lie along,i ,e the cutter. loay-
INC the messenger to return against a
strong tide. y few miles further mn
the bay the Corwin sent an officer
ashore in a small boat. then proceeded
towards Mare Island. The small rev.
enue tug. BARLEY. started after the
CorWln as soon as she entered the har-
Dor, went alongside the cutter and
offered its services. Capt. Munger
informed the captain of the Bart
ley that there was no service
he could perform for him and
refused to allow anyone on board.
The Corwin avoided the San Fran.
cisco side of the bay and made its way
to the Mare Island Navy Yard. The
only Ing ~ the way Of news from
Honolulu "hich is known here is a
statement said to have been made nv
i sailor On t.c Corwin to IA reporter
