NEW YORK, Nov. 29.-A local paper
says: The steamer State of California
which has been running between this
port and the Clyde for the Allan State
line since she left the hands of her build
ers, four years ago, has been sold to the
japanese government and will be con-
verted into uriiser. This information
comes from high source and is semi
officially verified. All knowledge of the
sale was, however, denied at the com
panys office ON Broadway.
1T may be true, said one of tho
attaches of the passenger department.,
..but we have not been officially notified
as yet. All we know is that we received d
Information from the other side to the
effect that the vessel would no longer be
identified with the line and to cancel
all bookings. AS "a matter of fact, she
was never owned by the company. We
simply chartered her.
The California has gross tonnage of
4244 tons and was built by Stephens Sons
of Glasgow. who launched her in August,
1891. This firm partally owned the ves-
sci, which cost $400, 100 to build. Her
withdrawal from the Allan-State line

Valuable Information

CONSTANTINUPLE, Nov. 2.-Ths St.
Petersburg Geographical society last year
succeeded by strategy in obtaining the
depth of water and currents in ami about
the Bosphorus and Darda nellcs with the
OBJECT, it is understood, of enabling the
Russian hset to force the passage of the
Dardarslles should such step turn out
to be necessary.
The society, it appears, obtained per-
mission from the Turkish government
for a scientific expedition to visit the Sea
OF Marmora on Turkish svessel in order
osuensibly to ascertain If the earthquake
of July last had made any changes in the
bottom of the sea. This apparently inno-
cent ork was afterwards to be continued
sill by thc permission Of the porto. in
the Turkish portion of the Ageaa sea.
and on their way through the Dardan-
elles the Russian scientists were
caught sounding thase waters. The
Turkish officers protested the work was
stopped, and the Russians returned home
disappointed.
The British admiralty is said to have
obtained complete souLdings from the
English merchant steamers, which have
repeatedly passed the Dardanelies, and it
is suspected in some quarters that the
British naval reserve officers have been
engaged on board these vessels in ootain.

Most startling reDorts are still current

Tho different divisions of the Black sea
fleet, regular and volunteer, are said to
have been brought up to the highest
point of efficiency and to be ready for i'm
mediate operations. The Black sea dock
yards and coaling dopots have undoubt-
edly been busy, according to the reports
OF ship captains who have passed Con-
stantinopie. and the greatest activity was
noticed by them in military circles. Tho
Russian officials here claim there Is moth
ing alarming in all this, that it occurs
every year at this time. and that 1t
H. ems nothing more than the work of
shifting troops and preparing troops for
people coming from the Black sea assert
that in all their experiences they have
never seen SO much activity displayed at
this or any other time of the year in
Russian naval and military circles.
The porte has made another report to
tho ambassadors on the situation. an
nouncing that the work OF restoring order
in the disturbed districts was progress
ing satisfactorily, and that t.,e reforms in
sisted upon by the powers wsre being
effected as promptly rs possible under
the circumstances.
The anxiety caused Dy the absence OF
direct news from Syria increases. 1t is
reported, however, that Args numb CT
