The general impression along the w front is toat the schooner Genersl Siglin wentdown at the same time as the ship Samaria. Private letters from people who left here afier the ill-fated vessel go to show thatshe isnow long overdue. Chief Officer Saunders wasthe brother of the pop- ular chief cflicer of the big steamer China. For twenty years they had never met, and the Saunders of the Siglin remarked when he was signing ariicles, I will never meet my brother until I hold as good a position as he does.” The Percy Edwards has been heard from once again, and it now appears that the Adamless Eden is now in the Fiji group.

Precautions to Be Taken Against Their | Entering This Country in Viola- tion of Law, In view of the fact that Immigration Commissioner Stradley has reason to be- lieve that Japanese are entering this port | from Victoris, B, C., by means of fraudu- lent certificates, a new system of inspec- | tion will hereaiter be adopted. Heretofore it has been the custom for the inspector to receive from the purser of incoming steamers f-om the north the certificares of all the Japanese pussengs E rmitted 10 iand as long as the agreed with the of procedure was practicea matter of accommodation to the Pa- | cific Coast Steamship Company, which operates the steamers between this port and Victoria, as it allowed of the certiti- | cated Japs being landed without delay.
