The Report That France Has Seized Hal
Nan is Now Denied--Japan Act
lively Preparing for War.


London, Dec. 30.--The Daily Mail has
received kilograms from Hong Kong
and from Tonquin denying the report
of French occupation of the island of
Hartman, but it re CARDS it as morally
certain that Hai-Nan was occupied
about fortnight ago when Port Ar
thur was occupied by the Russians, the
coincidence forcing the suspicion that
France and Russia are acting in con-
cert. A dispatch to the Daily Mail from
Singapore. dated yesterday tThursday)
says The news that the French had
occupied the island of Ha-Nan was
brought here from Saigon, the capital
of French Cochin China, on Tuesday,
by the French mail boat Ernest Simon.
Before the latter left Saigon on the
25tn, a French cruiser arrived there
with either Admiral Bedoliere or letters
from him To the French governor of
Saigon. The Earnest Simon was de-
layed at Saigon in order to take the
governors dispatch relating to the
hosting of the tiag On the island of the
Hai-Nan TO the French governor The
cause of the delay was known only to u
few officers on board the Ernest Simon,
but inadvertently the secret was COM
muniCated to a Frenchman here (Singa-
poreb, who not being bound to secrecy,
let the matter out. 1t is believed that
the French hold the telegraph office at
communication to Hong Kong. The
cable between Hai-Phong (Tonquin)
and Saigon is broken and under repair,
and therefore it was impossible for
Admiral Bedoliere to telegraph the
news of the seizure to Saigon. Admiral
Bedoliefe, with the warships Bayard
and Descartes. left Hong Kong on Dec.
II. He sailed at Hai-Phong on Dee is
and attended the meeting of the defense
committee at HaiPhong about that
date. when the seizure of the island of
Hai-Nan was decided upon.
\ dispatch to the Daily Mail from
Shanghai dated Thursday. says: A
British fleet of eight cruisers and four
torpedo boats arrived at Chemulpo, the
port of Seoul. II is reported that there
are japanese cruisers in Yan-Tse- Kiang
river. Japan is working night and day
preparing for War. 1t is believed that
the British and Japanese fleets are in
close touch.
