lished in the gazette a letter from the
earl OF Kimb berly to the lords of the ad-
miralty, setting forth the rules to be
observed at the various British ports
and harbors. A belligerent man-of-war
must leave British waters within "a

weather or the necessity OF taking on
coal or provisions prevents. In the
event of Chinese and Japanese vessel
beins in British port together, an in
tervai of "a hours must elspse between
the departure OF the two vessels.
A dispatch from Tuen says Chinese
cruiser has captured Japanese trading
bark and taken her to Taku. All pilots
have beeu warned not to guide Japanese
vessels or to give them any information
as TO the waters of the coast.

The Russian officials in Shanghai say
Russian trade suffers too severely from
the war to interfere. Russia'e move

nan because of the report of Ru ssian-
Chinese entente.
The weather on the China sea is so

crnisers are supposed to be concentrated
