Significantly reduced total solar eclipse sky brightness, low-scattered light instrumentation, and the use of a special algorithm for data reduction of allow us to carry out high precision linear polarization degree and direction determination with a realized accuracy of 1% and 1-2" respectively. Such an experiment was made during the total solar eclipse on August 11, 1999. The 2-D distributions of polarization degree and direction for the corona continuum radiation in the range 570-800 nm reveal different scale structures. Interpretation in terms of tangential (to the solar limb) velocities results in the detection of 30000 km/sec electron streams in the inner corona. These are not directly recorded either by current space or ground-based instruments in this optical spectral range.
