ENGLAND IS PKNU6
Great Britain Orders War Ships
to Red Sea.
FLEETS BEING MOBILIZED
Tlie Admiralty lias I lie Excuse
That It is Getting- Keady
for Practice Maneuvers.
London, July 18. Two naval orders
were issued today by the' British Ad
miralty, which are believed to indioate
a determination on the part of Great
Britain to protect British shipping from
acts of aggression at the hands of the
Russian navy.
The first order directs the Mediter
ranean fleet to sail at once from Gibral
tar and proceed to Alexandria, Egypt,
near the mouth of the Suez canal.
The second order directs two of the
fastest British armored cruisers to pro
ceed through the canal and take up
stations in the Red Sea at points where
several British ships have been held up
the last few days by the vessels of the
Russian volunteer squadron.
While the fact that these orders were
issued was carefully guarded, and no
public statement of their soope is pro
curable, there is no doubt that the
British Foreign Olfioe has decided that
the tine has come to act promptly in
protecting British ehippir ?, and to put
an end to any angrt)ision on the part of
the Russian cruisers. Well informed
naval officers believe that the dispatch
of this powerful Mediterranean fleet to
the vicinity of the Red Sea, and the
stationing of two of the crack vessels of
the squadron directly at the points
where the Russians are carrying things
with a high hand, means that no further
molestation of vessels flying the British
flag will be permitted.
From a secret, but unimpeachable
source, it can be stated that not only is
Great Britain to be represented by a
strong force at the Red Sea, but plans
are now being carried out which will
bringtogether in home waters an en
ormous fleet of vessels of war. The
home and channel fleets are being mo
bilized at Portland and Torquay, and
are being brought up to battle strength
by the addition of ships from the re
serves. While to all intents and pur
poses the nation is preparing for war,
the Admiralty has the excuse that it is
getting the fleets ready for the practice
maneuvers, and it simply happens that
thin mobilization comes at this time.

A new and valuable industry may be
started along the lower Columbia rrver,
which will be that of gathering and
polishing precious stones. For some
time past Mr. Albright, who is now
foreman in the Star brewery in Van
couver, has occupied his spare moments
in gathering peculiar-looking pebbles
along the Columbia river in and near
Vancouver. Mr. Albright ia not a pro
fessional lapidary, but he took npon
himself the task of grinding and finish
ing several of the specimens he found
and while there are many in his posses
sion that are not as valuable as the
owner might wish, still he has a very
large collection of the most valuable
gems of this character that can be
found anywhere on the globe.
These stones have been submitted in
their finished state to reputable lapida
ries and jewelers, who have pronounced
them to be gems of great value. In his
collection he has several fine opals,
amethysts, fresh water pearls, garnets
and the like. Many of the gems have
been mounted. Some of these he still
has in his possession, and many valua
ble specimens he has sold at a good

For years many persons and compa
nies have contemplated dredging the
Columbia liver for the purpose of ex
tracting gold from the sands, and many
companies have been organized with
this object in view. This has been
deemed feasible, and is still being con
sidered by several Minneapolis compa
nies. This gold excitement has perhaps
caused the overlooking of other valua
ble industries that might be carried on
with profit in this portion of the country
and these acciden ai and frequent finds
of Mr. Albright's has resulted in several
experienced lapidaries arrnnging (o in
vestigate the shores of the Columbia
river, and if their expectations are real
ized a very profitable industry will be
no doubt commenced in the near future.
