An Austrian steam- | ship which has arrived at Hakodate from Vladivostok reports that the Rus- | slan squadron left Vladivostok on Feb- | ruary 2. It is presumed to be cruising iln northern waters with the hope of | eapturing Japanese merchantmen. An- | other report says that two Russian war | vessels have been seen off Usuri Bay. | Advices from Hakodate do not mention any attacks on northern ports. The steamship Ekaterinoslav of the Russian volunteer transport fleet, which had been fitted up as an auxili- | ary cruiser; the steamship Manchuria, | belonging to the Chinese Eastern Rail- | way Company; the schooner Sliepner and the steam launch Wuliade have been declared prizes of war by the/ naval court as Sasebo. The decision of the court is subject to an appeal within thirty days. The session of the Diet, opening March 18, will last only ten days. Dur- ing the session the war credits will bei submitted. Immediately following the | adjournment the Mikado will leave To- kio for Kioto. The final returns of the parliament- ary elections show that more than 100 | new members have been elected. The large increase of the independent mem- bership is regarded as a favorable sign. Of late years the Diet has largely been} composed of politicians, and popular in- terest and confidence in it have de- creased. The Diet in consequence has ceased to be the great representative body the constitution proposed. Political issues have caused bickering and fre- quent dissolutions, making the Govern- ment partly an oligarchy instead of a constitutional administration. The war has revived interest in national affairs, and the new Diet is regarded as an im- | provement on its immediate predeces- | sors. Subscriptions to the war bonds, gifts to the new war fund and con- | tributions to war charities have been | exceedingly large. The issue of the first 100,000,000 yen of war bonds, | which closes on March 10, will be | oversubscribed four times. The Sol- diers’ Relief Society, which is being | promoted by Counts Matsugata and | Inouye, reports subscriptions ap- proaching 1,000,000 yen. Donations totaling 250,000 yen already have been pald to the war fund. Hundreds of | applicatiens have been made for per- mission to contribute to the coming army and navy, relief funds, the amounts offered making a total of 250,000 yen. The Ladies’ Patriotic Society, large- ly composed of peeresses and the wives of nobles, is raising a fund in aid of the Red Cross. The latter so- ciewy already possesses a large fund and an extended organization in Japan. Japan addressed a note to the pow- ers to-day, in response to the recent communication from Russia. The note has not been published here and its contents are unknown. Russia’s various communications to the powers attacking Japan for its| conduct of diplomatic negotiations before their rupture, its attack on Russia without declaring war and its alleged violation of the neutrality of Korea have been received in Japan largely in the spirit of amusement. The Japanese resent what is alleged to be a deliberate attempt to place them in a false position regarding cer- tain incidents, but in the main do not take the correspondence seriously. | Responding to the charge of violat- ing the neutrality of Korea, they point | to the action of Russia in Manchuria, | where thousands of troops were as- | sembled long before a diplomatic rup- ture occurred. They say that they are fully prepared to accept the judgment of the world on a comparison of their course in Korea, where they landed | troops only after a state of war existed and upon the written permission of the | Emperor of Korea. They deny Lhat‘ Chemulpo was a neutral port after the Japanese landed on February 8, but| whether it was neutral or belligerent, | Russia began hostilities there. When the Russian gunboat Koreitz steamed out of the harbor of Chemulpo on the afternoon of February 8 she opened | fire on the Japanese squadron, making the opening shot of the war. The Japanese guns did not respond, but the Japanese torpedo-boat destroyers answered the fire and discharged two torpedoes before the Koreitz retired. Japan is confident of the justice and strength of its driginal position on the integrity of China and the fairness of its proposals dyring the negotiations. It feels fully justified in having com- menced hostilities after breaking off diplomatic relations and serving ne- tice of its intention to take independ- ent action. It is sure that its recent assurance that it had no intention of taking possession of Chinese territory and would guarantee the integrity and independence of Korea will be ac- cepted by the powers. The Emperor of Korea has sent the | Mikado a cordial reply to his personal message assuring the former that war | with Russia was declared solely with the view of securing permanent peace and expressing the sincere wish that ! the protocol recently concluded be- | tween Japan and Korea will increase | the intimacy of those countries. The | Korear ruler seems determined to | maintain friendly relations with Japan. The PBritish Minister in Seoul is pressing the Korean Government to define the extent of the district in- cluded in the opening of the port of Wiju, on the Yalu River, to the com- merce of the world.

The Japanese Minister, on being notified of this, immediately informed the Korean Government that if it did not arrest the conspirators the Japanese officials would do so. As a result four leaders of the peddlers have been arrested. The Cabinet decided to-day to re- open the railroad between Yongampho and Wiju. Work in all the gold mines operated by natives has been suspended and will not be resumed until the recon- struction of the Government is com- pleted. A British gunboat has arrived at Chemulpo with foreign refugees from Songchin on board. The Russians who recently returned from Anju to Pukcheng are reported to have moved northward from the latter place. JAPANESE PATRIOTS SAIL FOR THE ORIENT TO ENLIST FOR WAR Seventy-seven Japanese, most of them returning to their native land to join the Mikado's land and sea forces, sailed yesterday for the Orient on the liner Doric. Seventy-seven sailed and ten times that number crowded the Doric’s decks for the purpose of cheer- ing on the patriots. Japanese orators mounted the hurricane deck, gave the Czar a verbal lambasting and uttered graceful tributes to the brave war- riors who had discarded the fleshpots of America for the soldier's portion on the campaign ground. A band, un- musical but loud, played patriotic airs and at irregular intervals every Jap- anese raised his voice in the Asiatic equivalent for a cheer. Colonel E. H. Crowder and Captain Peyton C.

The Cossacks, mounted in- fantry and light guns now across the Yalu River will serve to har- ass the enemy in every possible way, as well as to hold him in check until the Russian main armies and reserves are concen- trated and disposed. Sharp fight- ing may occur between the ad- vance parties, but nothing of a decisive character is expected. The Russian plans contemplate taking no chances on the score of inferior numbers. By sheer weight of men and guns, if noth- ing else, when the proper time arrives, Russia counts on over- whelming the Japanese and roll- ing them back through Korea. It is realized that the vastness of the theater of war will make the pro- tection of the railroads, the sole means for the transportation of troops and supplies from Europe, one of the most difficult phases of the Russian military problem. With the Japanese in command of the sea, there is always the pos- | sihjlity of their landing small bod- ies of men in unexpected places to make incursions into the interior to cut the railroad and telegraph lines and blow up bridges, but adequate measures are believed to have been taken to guard against such misfortune. It is a mistake to suppose that the Russians underestimate the DR. SIX BOOKS F What I Learnad ‘Which goo‘l: 00 shall Bock 1 Book 1 Book sen: Book No money is wanted. Simply select the book you need.
