THE WAR IN COREA.

Ii Hung Chang Continues to Direct War
Preparations-The Absence of Elis Vel
low Jacket the Subject of Much Remark
The Laying of Torpedoes Continues
An Unconfirmed Report of Another Naval
Engagement, Etc.
LONDON, Aug. IA dispatch to the
Central News from Tien-Tsin says:
Ii Hung Chang continues to direct
the war preparations of the Chinese.
Yesterday he reviewed the newly-ar-
rived troops. The absence of his yell
low jacket was the subject of much re-
mark. Ii Hung Chang has sent a mes
sage to the Japanese minister express
ing regret for the treatment to which
the minister was subjected in Taku,
and promising that the offending Chi
nese soldiers will be punished. The
soldiers in question abused and de-
rided the minister and threw mud and
stones at him
"a telephone line has been estab-
lished between Taku and Tien-Tsin.
The commander at Ta5u has prepared
to block the Pier-Noo on short notice.
The laying of torpedoes continues.
All competent mea in the training
schools oave been called for service on
various war ships"
The Shanghai correspondent of the
Central News telegraphs as follows:
Yesterdays report that there had
been an engagement off the Corean
coast in which three Chinese war ships
had been captured by the Japanese, is
not confirmed here. The Chinese
northern fleet remains at Weihai-Wei
and no Chinese transports have re-
Gently ventured to sea.
The Russian troops north of the
Tiumen river have been reinforced.
Several Japanese transports escorted
by war ships have been sighted in the
Yellow sea. 1t is presumed that they
are bound for Chemulpo.
Letters from Han-Kow, where there
are only eighty Europeans, say that
great anxiety prevails among the for
eigners lest anarchy break out among
the natives in the event of a disaster
to the Chinese forces. All of the male
citizens have been enrolled as soldiers.
Uneasiness is felt in Chin Khan, Chu-
Hu, TIE Yang, and other places.
Mr.. Shinichiro Kurino Appointed to Sue
ceed Minister Tetano.
WASHINGTON, Aug. IA telegram
was received at the Japanese legation
yesterday announcing the appointment
of Mr.. Shinichiro Kurino, chief of the
diplomatic bureau of the department of
.:oreign affairs, to be envoy extraordi-
nary and minister plenjpotentiary to
the United States.
Mr.. Kurino was one of the students
who were sent to this country by the
government of Japan as soon as that
government decided upon the policy of
sending her young men abroad to pur-
sue the course of studies at colleges
and universities of Europe and Amer
lea.
The announcement that Kintario
Kaneko would be appointed to succeed
Minister Tateno was premature.

SOUTHERN GLEANlNGS.
To Break His Mothers win.

Gen. Joe Shelby, now United States
marshal for the western district Of
Missouri, has brought suit to break the
will of Mrs. A. NJ. Grant, The suit is
against Mrs. Thomas H. Clay and others.
Of Lexington, Ky. Mrs. Clay is the wife
of the assistant editor of Youths Com
panion, grandson of the distin-
guished Henry Clay. Mrs. Grant,,
who was Shelby's mother, died two
years ago, leaving the bulk of her
fortune, estimated at $1,000 to
Mrs. Clay, Shelby being ignored.
Gen. Shelby bases his suit to break
the will on the ground that Mrs Clay
had exercised a singular influence over
his mother. Mrs. Clay is represented
by John Shelby, partner of Congress
man W. c. P. Breckenridge. Deposi-
tions have already been given by Miss
Annie Crosby, of Philadelphia, Pa.
daughter of Rear-Admiral Crosby, of
the United States navy, and her
brother, Benjamin Crosby, cadet at
Annapolis. The case promises inter
esting developments.

Amputated His own Finger.

DR.. Lewis Wheat, of Richmond, Va,
suffered greatly from blood poison
in his hand and arm, caused by an ac-
cident while performing a surgical
operation. Shortly after his accident
he went to Essex, and while there his
finger became so bad that he saw am
putation was inevitable, and with al
most unparalleled nerve and stoicism
performed the operation himself, taking
off the first joint of the finger. Ten days
later he returned to Richmond, and, his
hand rapidly growing worse, he am
putated the second joint of his finger.
When DR.. Mcclure called to see him he
found him prepared for the still more
serious operation of taking off the fin
ger below the main joint, he having Sc
lected the proper instruments and cut
open the hand to make the proper ex-
animation. DIR. Mcclure performed
the last operation, and the danger is
now thought to be passed.

vice is prompt and efficient. No ex-
pense is spared in ransacking the mar

Frank Murphy Interviewed by the
Chicago Inter-Ocean.
A late issue of the Chicago Inter-
Ocean contains an interview with Presi
dent Frank Murphy, of the Santa Fe,
Prescott & Phoenix railroad, in which
Mr.. Murphy calls attention to the fact
that Arizona is now about the only re-
gion in which railroad building is going
on, an indication of prosperity which
he believes to be due to the fact that
the mining interests of the territory
being of gold, have not been affected
by the causes which have brought de-
preston elsewhere in the country. He
describes the progress of the north and
south road and of it's southern terminus
and resources says:
"We are just opening up one of the
richest farming countries in the world
for its area, the Salt River valley, of
which Phoenix, the capital, is the me-
tropolis, a thriving city of 10000 in
habitants. We are building the Santa
Fe, Prescott & Phoenix railroad, sixty
miles of which have been constructed
from the Atlantic & Pacific road to
Prescott. to give this country northern
by the Southern Pacific route, which is
reached from Phoenix oyer branch
road thirty-four miles long.
'The Salt River valley is famous

sternation and pity depicted on their
youthful countenances. But present
ly speech returned to them exactly at
the same time, and they fairly howled
in their excitement: You cannot mar

voice, which grew still sadder. "Whv,
