[N.-C. DAILY NEWS SERVICE.] RUSSIAN AGGRESSION ON COREA.

TOKIO, July 23.

Mr Pavloff, the Russian Minister, insists that the timber-felling concession in the Yalu Valley carries the right to construct railways and telegraphs.

He declares that the removal of the

authorities is illegal, and demands com- Russian telegraph poles by the Corean local

pensation.

If it is rofused, he will deduct it from the royalty payable to the Corean Govern. ment by the lumber company..

He further announces that he has iu- structed the company to re-erect their poles.

Thereupon the Corean Government has issued fresh orders for the removal of the poles, if they are re-erected.

Russia's arbitrary proceedings in the Yalu Valley are exciting indignation in Japan, where the injustice of Mr Pavloff's position is fully recognised.

The New Naval Base. July 4.-In Committee of the House of Commons last night a resolution forming the basis of a Naval Works Bill for two years was brought down. The bill is to provide for an expenditure of £-750,000 on items of naval works already agreed to by the House, and £1,250,000 on new

works.

Captain E. G. Pretyman, the Civil Lord of the Admiralty, explained to the com- mittee the proposals of the Admiralty in regard to the works for which the uspendi- ture was asked. He said that the Ad- miralty had decided that the items which were now included in this resolution, and which were to be included in a series of bills providing for naval works, would be final, although the estimates he asked for would not be final. Altogether the total £31,750,000. Of this amount £13,750,000 had already been voted making, with the

£21,000,000. amount asked for in the present bill, Captain Pretyman continued that the new items would include provision for electrio power to light all the naval es- tablishments in the Empire, now gunnery schools at Trevor and Devonport, the trans-
