A Sketch OF the Army, Navy, Officers and
Advantages of China, Japan and Ro-
rea-The Origin OF the Present Trouble
aud Its Probable Outcome.

The kingdom of Korea is not quite
twice as large as the state of New
York. Its population is estimated at
5000, 900. 1t is peninsula stretching
out from the continent of Asia in a
southeasterly direction, between
japan and China proper, with the Vel
low sea on one side and the sea of
Japan on the other. The average
width is 1875 miles, and the whole
length is about 600 miles. The native
name for the country is Tsyosien, or
Chosen. The Chinese call it Kao Lee.
The Japanese know it as Korai, from
which comes the English name. The
climate is cold, and in the summer
rain is frequent.

the United States cruiser Baltimore
and n British warship have landed

English legations-is the port for the
capital Seoul. walled town of $50, 900
inhabitants. about % miles inland, and
joined to its seaport by badly made
road. The harbor of Chemulpo is
picturesque, but the water is very
shallow, and the trade of Korea is so
small that only about once month
can the small steamer of the Nippon
Yusen Kaisha "a Japanese company be
seen in the bay. Seoul is the heart of
Korea, and it is the one aim and object
of every Korean to live there.
Korea is rich in minerals; gold, sill
yer, copper and coal are all common.
Gold mining is strictly prohibited, the
permission to work silver mines has
been revoked, the copper mines are
neglected and the use of coal is con-
fined to few districts. There are n
good many cattle, horses, dogs, pigs,
sheep and goats. The sheep and goats
are a royal monopoly and are only used
for sacrifice. The people eat the dogs.

At the time the trouble began there
was larger Japanese population there
than of any other nationality. and
Japan was forced to take action to
protect the interests of her subjects.
Japan had been endeavoring to have
some reforms made in the government
of Korea that would have been of
advantage TO the country itself and to
all the civilized nations that do bust
ness with it. The reforms included
changes in the system of taxation and
the removal of restrictions on trade,
agricultural and mechanical interests
which were subject to arbitrary regu-
lations that caused trouble and fire.
quently popular uprising. Japan did
the banking business of the country
and the government was frequently
called on to press the Koreans for
money due. Japan also wanted the
Korean judiciary system reformed, as
under that in vogue cruel and unusual
punishment was inflicted and inquisi
torial methods prevailed to the INJURY
of Japanese business men. Further
more, the Japanese wanted assurances
of greater liberty and safety of travel
throughout Korea.
japan had reason to know the need
of these reforms, for her subjects were
the ones who had suffered in previous
uprisings in Korea. In 1882, when al
uprising took place, the japanese dele

What WIN be tho nnsult2

In many places where a thorough
acquaintance with both nations is dis
played, il Is believed that the Japanese
win be victorious for many reasons.
One is that she is in the right. The
Japanese soldier is the better of the
two. He is better equipped and better
trained. He has had modern military
schooling that gives him big advan-
tage in spite of the fact that China has
much the bigger army. The navies
are about on an equality unless the
favor is on the side of Japan, and her
marines are certainly better trained
and better capable of hard fighting.
All in all, China's only hope for victory
seems to be To overwhelm Korea with
the number of It's land forces.
The commander-in-chi of the Jap.
anese forces is Prince Taruhito Arisu-
gawa, and that he is an efficient officer.

the troops in Korea, has n high repu-
tation in army circles
How the Fight Progresses.
The first meeting which resembled a
fight between the powers occurred
when the Japanese fired on and sunk
the steamship Kow Shung, belonging
10 IluHll NdlilltSOn ~ w. VI lsOhdOuY
which had been chartered by the
Chinese government TO convey troops
to Korea. A Japanese cruiser sighted
the Kow Shung and signallcd the
transport TO put back. The transport
continued steaming ahead until the
cruiser fired shot across her bows.
No attention being paid to this the Jap
opened fire in earnest, put number
of shot into her, and the transport
eventually sunk with all hands. The
number of people drowned is not
known, but it is believed that there
must have been about 1000 Chinese
soldiers on board. The next day the
Chinese Trading cOmpany's steamer
Toonan, which was also being used as
a transport, was sunk by the fire from
a Japanese warship.
At Seoul conflict took place be-
tween the Japanese and some Chinese
and Korean soldiers, the Japanese be-
ing victorious. Shortly afterward tho
japanese made prisoner of the king
of Korea.
