28th December. According to the Chosen Shimpo, a Japanogo paper Isanal in Seoul, the Japanese soldiers ara lo he withdrawn by the end of the mouth, and their places will be taken by 260 gendarmon One miru batnge, howorur, has to be put to their ademunt. The other day a body of soldion | Ox foreuil their way into the Cabinet meeting and thrastoavd all the Ministers with death malena they huet an order compelling the people to out of their, hair. This is evidently a little goheng on the part of Cho Hai-yon to gat himself into office again. Altor the Queen's marder the foreign representatives refused to rocoguise the government unless he was die missed. He was obliged to fy and is trying all he car to get back.
The king, I am afraid, is having a miserably naxions time. He has been removed from the palace and is confined to two rooms. All foreignars are now archided from sosing him. Ho is supposed to wall four times a day for the murdered Queen and the Crown Prince savon Lines

Everything in my opinion, points to a Russian protectorate of the unatry, and IjOw really believe" it would he for the best. The Japanese recognise that their time is up, and al} thoir olaborate schemes have been withdrawn. The people wquid' wolseme Russian pr tectorate, and under a steady government the country would certainly progress. When one knows the rough niedo" of farming, without the last attempt at manuring, eto, and then, looke at the enormous export of rice, one cannot but be convinced that the country has astonishing agricultural resources, whilst its undeveloped mineral wealth is also certain and immense, Everyone is expecting something to happen when the now Russian Minister comes out Mr. Waeber had the idea that the country gold stand alone, but events have shown that he was wrong and a chango of policy is very. probable in once.-N..
