that the independent stand taken by

to revoke the franchises of the road in

There is great deal Of speculation as
to how the agreement was brought

THE CELESTIAL iMBROGLI0.

No formal declaration OF war has been

,hina, but il the accounts that come
through the cable are true something
very like war prevails. 1t is said that n
apan cruiser opened fire on Chinese
varship on the Yellow Sea and sunk q
steamer the Cinnamon WAS conveying
with troops bound for Corea.
The impression prevails in Europe
that the difficulties between the two
nations will be settled without war
But there is much irritation between
them, and considerable although by no
means all of the trouble grows out of
Corean matters. II war should be
formally declared, il is believed that
Japan would be victorious, at least in
the beginning on the war. But the
fight in Corea can scarcely be doubt
