WARSHIPS TO PREPARE

Orders to Get Ready Issued by the British Admiralty. The British admiralty has ordered that all the cruisers which mobilized for the July maneuvers be prepared for active service at a moment’s notice. .As the Transvaal campaign itself does not call for warships, this action of the British admiralty Is taken to indicate apprehension that there is ground for the rumor that France and Russia may interfere in behalf of the Boers.
