WAR VESSELS TAKE OX COAI> The flagship California, -which coaled Wednesday at California City, returned yesterday to its anchorage in man of war row. The West Virginia, flagship of the second division, will coal Friday at California Cits'. The time of the fleet's departure for Santa Barbara channel has not yet been ilx^d and will depend upon the arrival from Mare island of recruits to take the places of the time pxpired men discharged at the end of the last cruis£. Before the ships go to sea the machinery and boilers of each of the cruisers will be inspected by the offi cers from Marc island, who will have charge of the repairs when the ships return from target practice. This in spection, it is said, is for the purpose of expediting the repairs an.l to enable the yard forces to go ahead with such new work as may have to be installed when the ships return. CRI ISER VICKSBUH(J RETURNS The cruiser Vieksburg, which re turned yesterday from Corinto. went direct to the navy yard. The Vicks hurg left h<»re some months ago for the Atlantic coast, but was held .in Ontral America on account of the trou ble in Nicaragua. When the Vicksburg left here it was supposed to be in condition for the trip around the Horn. The sojourn at Corinto proved other wise and the reason for the Vicksburg's return is said to be the need for repairs to its boilers. The cruiser New Orleans, which left recently for the Asiatic station, but iurn».l back on account of leaky boil ers, is still at the navy yard. Tars> Saw No Warfare [ Special Ditpaich lo The Call ] VALLEJO, Feb. 24. — The gunboat Vlcksburg. in command of Captain A. S. Halstead. dropped anchor in the channel here this afternoon after eight months spent in Xicaraguan waters, having*left here in June last. The vessel brought back a distressed American seaman, A. H. Ryan, who claimed to be war correspondent of a Los Angeles paper. He was compelled to flee from the country to escape. the wrath of government officials. lie was ordered to leave on the Vicksburg, and Admiral Kimball gave him permission to do so. Commander Ilalstead declares that during his eight months* stay at Co rinto he saw no evidence of trouble, the hostilities being all confined to the eastern part of the country.
