NEW YORK, Jan. 7.—Parke God- win, from 1837, to 1853 editor of the’ New York Evening Post, of which he again became editor a few years later: .and well known as editor and author, died to-day. . NEW YORK. Jan. 7.—Major I.'T. McTeer, Mayor of Knoxville, Tenn. died at the Hoffman House yesterday ' of stomach trouble. REPLY OF TOKIO, Jan. 8.—Russia’s reply to Japan practically removesall hope of a Russian marines, who landed at Che- mulpo and were refused transporta- tion to Seoul over the Japanese rail- Way, have reached the capital,.march- ing overland. Minister Allen’s dis- patch is very brief, reading simply: Russian ‘marines marched to-day (vesterday) to Seoul.” ) The railroad between Chemulpo and Seoul is a single line steam road, and owing to its meagre equipment it is believed at the State Department that the Japanese officers declined to trans- port the Russian marines over it only because of lack of rolling stock. It is understood that the purpose in sending American marines in such haste to the Korean capital ahead of all European marines was because of |. a desire to protect not only the Amer- ican legation,in the Korean capital, but also the property of the Chemulpo electric railway and the electric light works, in both of which Americans are interested largely. = Colbrand and Bostwick, the former a naturalized American citizen, built this railway and also the Trailway conecting Seoul with Chemulpo, which latter property was ultimately purchased by the Jap- anese. There are other large American in- terests in Korea; in fact, it is said at the State Department that they are, perhaps, more important than those of any other nation. .The death of the Empress Dowager is likely seriously to complicate the situation at Seoul. Following the very rigid etiquette of the Korean court, the Emperor must now go into an extend- ed period of mourning, which certain- ly will last thirty days and has been kpown to cover a period of two years. During this time of mourning the Em- peror absolutely refuses to touch any publfc business, so that it is feared that Allen, our Minister, will be pre- cluded from urging his request for the opening of the Wiju as a trade port. LR s NEGOTIATING WITH TURKEY. Russia Wants to Send Black Sea Fleet Through Dardanelles. PARIS, Jan. 7.—A dispatch to the Patrie from Constantinople says that Russia is negotiating with Turkey to permit her Black Sea fleet, said to con- sist of seventy-six ships, to pass through the Straits of the Dardanelles. Officials and diplomatic circles here claim to be without information re- garding the contents of the Russian reply to Japan, but the tone is dis- tinctly pessimistic and there are but slight hopes of a peaceful exit from the position in which’ Russia and Japan find themselves. The diplomats are making inquiries as to the attitude of the powers in case of war, that to be adopted by the United States being regarded as par- ticularly important. The Japanese Minister said to-day. “The attitude of the United States will mean much. She has negotiated a treaty with China for the opening of three ports in Manchuria to the com- merce of the world. These ports have been occupied by Russia and thus her treaty rights have been violated. Japan is not guided by selfish motives, but is acting in the interest of all nations. I hope the United States will clearly un- derstand our position and will favor us with _its support.” . The' Chinese legation claims' to be without information in regard to the attitude -of China regarding. the war. It was said that at the outset it was certain neutrality would be proclaimed, but in case of Japanese victories it would not surprise the legation if the Chinese should cast their lot with Japan. This would seriously embar- rass Russia, not because of the im- portance of the Chinese as a fighting force, but because of the danger of the Interruption of the Russian communi- cations. £ The action of the United States in sending marines to Seoul is regarded here is being a “significant indication of the trend of its sympathies,” and it is known to be gratifying to Japan, because it establishes a precedent which the Japanese can follow, if nec- essary, in debarking a strong forte on the peninsula. It is insisted at the Japanese legh- tion that Japan never requested the view of Russia upon the question of dispatching troops to Korea, and it is esserted that this action would be taken, if necessary, without consulta- tion with that Government. ol P L VESSEL'S NAME CONCEALED.

Tokio ‘Requisitions Large Number of Ships for Transports. i LONDON, Jan. 8.—The Daily Mail's Tokio correspondent says: “‘Governor Taft had a secret confer- ence with. Marquis Ito at the United States. consulate in Yokohama. I un- derstand that Governor Taft assured the Marquis that the United States would observe a friendly neutrality to- ward ‘Japan in the event of war and that, if necessary, it would grant the use of American ports in the Far East to thé Japanese fleet.” “A dispatch from Copenhagen to the Daily Mall says it is. generally known in" diplomatic circles that the Russian legation considers war inevitable. This is noteworthy because hitherto M. d'Is- volsky; the Russian Minister, has been highly optimistic. None of the special cablegrams from Tokio printed in this morning's papers give the wontents of Russia's reply, but all concur in believing it to be un- satisfactopy. It appears that the note might still be undelivered, as Baron de Rosen, Russian Minister, is suffering from an ear affection, had not Baron Komura, the Japanese Foreign Minis- ter, visited the Russian legation to get it. According to the Standard’s Tokio correspondent, an increasing number of !t{;mshlps are requisitioned daily’ as transports. i The correspondent of the Daily Mail at Tokio reports on the authority of the newspaper Chuo that one Japanese has been murdered near Port Arthur and that four others have been injured. The insurance of the Japanese cruis- ers Nisshin and Kasan, which were built at moa and bought from the Argentine /Government, has been com- pleted after considerable difficulty. The policies have been so arranged as to permit the cruisers to go by way of the Suez canal, Cape Horn or Cape of Good Hope routes, as the circumstances of the moment may dictate. -y Japan Buying Torpedoes.

Men Who Once Were Soldiers Re- called to the Army. LOS ANGELES, Jan. 7.—The Times says: It is estimated that by the end of this month over 1000 Japanese will have gone back from, California to Japan, having been called to go by an edict of Japanese Consul Molono of San Francisco. This statement was made by K. Baba, who is an educated Japanese of high standing among his kindred in Los Angeles. “We are very glad to meet with Russia in arms,” he said. *““We must fight and we feel that all are glad about the war. The Japanese who are going belong to the class of those -who were once soldiers and they are called back to serve in the home guard and be ready to go into active seryice when needed. The Japanese of this city who belong to this class did not wait for the order of the Consul, but proposed to him two months ago that they should go, and I wrote the let- ter. Many of them have already gone and the rest will leave before the end of the month.” The foremen of the electric roads and of the Santa Fe speak of the sud- den departure of Japanese and are becoming worriéd about a possible shortage of labor. —_————— REPLY TO REYES' PROTEST.
