If no beacons near by , you will see the message "No near by beacons"
No, there is a Beacon. With Google Chrome I see the Beacon, bit with Chromium I don't see the Beacon. I tried with other devices but I get the same results (I don't see the Beacon with Chromium but I see It with Chrome or Physical Web app).
Logcat show this: 

cr_PhysicalWeb: Nearby connection failed: ConnectionResult{statusCode=UNKNOWN_ERROR_CODE(2802), resolution=PendingIntent{db21764: android.os.BinderProxy@34c9dcd}, message=null}

Apologies, but this is expected.  At the moment only official builds of Chrome can scan for beacons because of the way we subscribe to Nearby.  We are exploring ways to add a raw Bluetooth scanner to chromium which can be used in such cases.

Sorry for the confusion!
