OPIUM PATROL.
Tug Eleu Looking for Bouyed Con-
traband Stuff.

At o'clock yesterday morning the Gov
ernment tug Eleu slipped out OF the har-
bor and cruised off Diamond Head and
then down To Barber's point until 10
o'clock, when she returned to her moor
ings at Likelike wharf.
Information has been received from
authentic sources 10y the customs bureau
that much of the opium landed on this
island comes off the trans-Pacific steam
ships, being thrown over I'm sacks or boxes
with floats attached. These packages are
taken by some one of the small Schooners
which generally follow in the wake of the
big liners and brought into port.
During a cruise some weeks ago the
tug Eleu picked up the upper half OF
tarred sack, which showed the evidence
of having once contained the contrabaud
article, il having been ripped open SO as
to quickly Discharge it's contents: floats
wcSe attached to this part OF the sack
kes ng il on top of the water.
~ the Elcu'S cruise was taken ycStcT-
day morning and. though suspicious
schooner was overhauled, nothing was
caught. Ash chuteS are good medium
of communication for tins of opium. The
patrol by the tug Eleu will be kept up.

Russia and England.

LONDON, Nov. "A dispatch from
Wei-Ha;-We says that all of the British
war vessels there have cleared for ac-
ton and are ready to put to sea at an
hours notice. The authorities observe
the utmost secrecy as to their move
ments. A large Russian fleet has as
sembled at Port Arthur.
The Globe, commenting upon the
kilograms from Wei-Hei-Wei, says: SIN
the absence of more definite informa-
ton it must be surmised that Russia,
taking advantage of the present ten
sion between England and France, has
pushed her far Eastern policy to un.
bearable lengths by forcibly taking pos
session of the valuable treaty port of
New Chwang."
LONDON, Nov. 2.-Great Britain's
naval preparations, ostensibly made
against France, now seem to have been
made against Russia under cover of the
Fashods incident. The dispatch from
Wei Hai-Wei saying that the vessels Of
the British fleet in Asatic wsrters were
stripped for action and that large Rus
sian fleet had assembled at Port Arthur
came as stunning surprise to the Brit
ish public which was not contemplating
war with Russia as the crisis in the east
was believed to have been passed. The
exact nature of the crisis in the east is
not known, but, naturally it must rela g
to Russia's grabbing policy there. Sc
curities on the stock exchange were
weak and stagnant to-day, chiefly as q
result of the new turn in affairs.
Great Britian's preparations for war,
which have been on a scale exceed
ing any since the Crimean war, have
puzzled many. France has all along
shown disposition to yield Fashoda
and in the face of the fact the continued
preparations for war have seemed
queer. To-day's developments explain
the mystery.
LONDON, Nov. Eff indications,
preparations and guarded hints mean
anything they mean that the British
government is about to perpetrate
coup which is nothing more nor less
than the proclamation Of Egypt as
British protectorate-thati is to say, as
an integral portion of the English en-
pire.
LONDON, Nov. 2.-The beliefs grow
ing that the present naval activity IL
directed more against Russia than it is
against France. Rumors are current

snain and the Philippines.

PARIS, Nov. 2.-Spain, through her
peace commissioners, is really disposed
to relinquish the Philippines, bu5 her
representatives will continue their dip
lomatic protest against surrendering
the islands without q cash indemnity
and will ask for similar indemnity for
Cuba if compelled to assume the Cuban
debt. This will be refused. The ne.
gotiations will be strained to the break
ing point, when Spain will yield and
retire with what the generosity of the
United States permits them for the
evacuation of the Philippines.
The Paris correspondent of the Lon
don Daily Telegraph says: "Tbe Span
iards are in position to know and as
sert that their government will resist
the American demands and will sell the
Philippines for a large sum. If this
proposal is not accepted Spain will re-
call her commissioners and let the Yam
KEGS do what they choose"
