COREAN MERCHANT TALKS OF THE WAR (hung, Tea Merchant, Says Chin Natives Are Not Soldiers and that the War Will Result in the Freedom of Corea, Mmr, Among the guests who lounged in the rotunda of the Paxton hotel yesterday there was one man Who sat apart from the others, apparently buried indeep thought. He was slightly under size, smooth-faced, with coal black halr, which was closely cropped, show- ing a well formed head. His eyes were as biack as his hair, while his complexion was of a soft olive color. His clothes were of the latest cut, it was quita cvident that the man was a foreigner, though there was nothing about his make-up that would indleate trom what part Lie hailed, nor was there anything upon the hotel register that would give a tip as to whers the gentleman rested his weary bones when he was at home. Upon being approached, the gentleman produced a card, upon which were the words, “Chee Ha Chung, tea merchant, Mo Po, Chulla Do, Corea.”” Inviting the mewspaper man to be seated, Mr. Chung reeled off the most fluent English, remarking as a preface to his con- versation, that he was born in Japan a trifle more than forty years ago and that when five years of age his parents moved to San Francisco, where he was educated In the public schools of that city, afterward taking a course in one of the eastern colleges, where he obtained a classical education. When 25 years of age Mr. Chung said hat he returned to the land of his birth, and with money which his father had given him, he opened a largs tea farm in the southern portion of Corea, near the town of Chonchul, making considerable money. AGENT OF THEMIKADO. Six months ago thé' mikado of Japan in passing through Corea had cccasion to visit Mo Po, and while thefe was entertained at A fezling of be- the residence of Mr. Chung. the warmest friendship at once existed tween the two men, and'a few days Mr. Chung was invited to Accompany the mi- kado and safl the Yellow ‘sea in the latter's steam launch, which he' 'purchased last sum- mer while on a visit to the World's fair. The trip consumed thé bétter part of three weeks, and at the shd ‘of that time Mr. Chung was Induced to tike a special com- mission from the govérnment and visit America in the interests’ of the Japanese government, but for * ‘wial purpose Mr. Chung refused to state,“though he intimated that it was with refefence to matters con- nected with the war fiow' In progress. Leav- ing Japan two month§ agd Mr. Chung said be sailed at once for 'San Francisco, and that upon reaching that'(ity be procesded to Washiugton, where ‘A called upon the forelgn legation, held -a consultation with the min tter from Japan and then went to the works of the Remington Arms company. After remaining there for a few days he pro- ceeded to New York City, remained there some time, and then started on his return to his native land, ursday night Mr. Chung arrived in Omaha and remained until 2:15 in the afternoon, when he left for the west on the Overland. Referring to the war between the two na- tions, Mr. Chung sald that in his opinion Japan was sure to win, He opined that China bad her millicas of soldlers, “but,” he continued, “most of them are no bstter fitted for fightir, than the American In- dians or the Mexican greasers, while with the Japanese it is quite different. Wor many years our p:ople have been devoting fortunes o military matte We have established some of the best military schools in the world, wiere we have fitted our young men, teaching them the art of wa?. W* have been anticipating this war with China for years, and, in fact, we have courted the conflict, as we have realized that a var would be the only thing that would free Corea from the iron heel of Cliina. Much has been sald about the em- peror of China being able to mass his mil- lions of men in the northern part of the em- pire and march them down upon Corea, sweeping our people from the face of the earth. Of course, it is true enough that the emperor has the men, but they are mnot soldlers wiio could stand up before the rapid firing guns with which our men are armed. OUT OF DATE METHODS “Three years ago I made an extended trip through the northern portion and the interior of China, and I know just what the situation is. Up there you will find legions of men, but they are not soldiers, reports to the con- trary, motwithstanding, Up there they are not on the highway to civilization, and in- | stead of being armed with the latest and most they have javelins improyed implements of warfare, the old bows and arrows, spears, and stink pots. thess weapons would all have a deadly effect, but with the modern arms, a vegiment of our soldiers could mow down an army of | Chinese before ome man could get close enough to hurl a spear.” Upon being asked to describe a stink pot, Mr. Chung said that it was an earthen jar, very closely resembling it shape a hand grenade, used for extinguishing He said that these jars were fi chemicals, closely sealed. When quarters they were hurled at the enel in breaking the contents of the jar were tered, filling the air with a terrible odor, the inhaling of which produced death. From long mall fires. ed with in y, and years of practice, Mr. ung sald that the natives of northern China had become expert in throwing the stink pots and could send them out into the air a distance of 300 feet. The odor, he said, would be 0 str distance of 100 feet from the place of ex- plosion that every living thing within that radius would die. Mr. Chung thought that the continuation of the war was a foregone conclusion, and was of the opinion that if foreign nations did not interfere, it would last for years, re- sulting in the death of millions of men, and the ultimate freedom of Corea. — 1 had the good fortune to recefve a small bottle of Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy when three members of my family were sick with dysentery.
