Uneasiness prevails in Seoul, owing to a desire on the art of Tal-in-Kun to place his grandson Ri-Shon-To on the throne. The Korean Liberal party have asked for the loan of two dai-ial of Japanese troops ('wo-thirds, of a regiment).

The Government is expected to raise a second war loan to the amount of 50 million yen. The taxes on rake and tobacco will be increased, and the total revenue from these two items will amount to over 70 million yax. There is a large majority in the Cabinet opposed to raising foreign loan.
