that since leaving hero in Jnly the
Charleston has been to Japan, China and
Honolulu and on its return trip to this
country encountered terribly high seas,
which the cruiser stood splendidly, prov
ing her seagoing qualities to bo tho very
best. "Wo know ubsonitcly nothing
about the Chilean trouble," said he.
"We were directed to como to San ni'o
when wo left Honolulu, to meet the bun
Franeibco vid take ammunition. To
day we will coal and receive ammunition
from tho "San Francisco and await or
ders." Captain Reiny declined to say
whether ho thought there would be war
with Chile or not, but it is evident that
ho regards the situation aa serious. Fur
ther than tho foregoing no information
could bo elicited. It iB evident in tho
opinion of several officers of both vessels
that tho government is taking precau
tionary measures and San Diogo will be
considered the base of supplies. Tho
cruiser Baltimore is expected? Saturday
or Monday.
It is also reported that General
McCook has made arrangements for
quarters for three companies of nitillery,
