Japan VIII Loan Corea Money.
WASHINGTON, March H.-According to
recent unofficial advices received here the
Japanese government is considering a loan
of 100000 yen TO Corea, which step is said
to be temporarily necessitated by the pres
ent financial difficulties of that country.
The matter. was the subject OF a speech
in the House of Representatives Feb. Il
by Count Ito, the Minister President of
State. The Minister said the Tonghak re-
bellion, which commenced early last SUM
mer. was followed by a failure of the
harvest. and then came the war between
Japan and China. "Corea," said he, has
ever since stood as our ally, and being to-
day still in the midst of war. our govern
1nent cannot remain unconcerned, and is
therefore brought under the necessity of
making a loaR to Corea." The latter gov
eminent, the Minister announced, is PLAN
ming a loan to meet the national expendi-
lures. and as soon as the plan was matured
the Japanese government intended to re-
quire the repayment of its own loan.

A japanese fleet is reported off the Pes

Church or MALES Observation-Disclosures.

LONDON, March 21.-Herbert Smith,
Home Secretary in the House of Commons,
moved the second reading of the bill dis
establishing the church in Wales. He
dwelt on the fact that there were only no.
600 members of the Anglican church in
Wales, while there were 1898 200 dissenters.
He said that thirty-one out of the thirty
four Welsh members of Parliament fav-
ored the bill. Sir Marshall the
church estates commissioner, who has had
several high positions under Conservative
administrations, opposed the motion. He
declared that the bill was an attack on
the Church of England in the guise of
yielding to a national demand in Wales.
Moreover, it was the first step in the d.
rection of Welsh home rule. In 1853 Sir
Marshall voted against the bill disestab-
fishing the Irish Church.

THE SONG OF THE GUN.

The furnace was white with steel a,ight.
When my newborn spirit came
In molten food OF the war-god's blood
In n passion of fire and flame.
I looked DER the deep from lofty steep
with strong heart full OF pride.
Like a king alone on his stately throne
Whose word no man denied.
My thunder spoke from the battle smoke.
When the waves ran crimson red,
And heroes died by my iron side.
TIL the foreign foemen fed
The sentence OF death was in my BREATH
And many ship went down
Oh, the gun Is lord OF the feeble sword,
And greater is his renown.
Now the long grass hides my rusty sides.
Al round me the children play:
But dream by night OF a last great fight,
Ere the trump of the Judgment Day.
For men must tight In the cause OF right,
TIL the time when war shall cease:
And the song of the gun will ne'er be done
TIL the dawn Of lasting peace

Nor c,asped you in a twilight gray

Weep: smiles but keep our souls apart
And kill the lily In my heart.

There were incidents at the close OF the decade
which tended to accentuate the moraiaspec OF the
slavery question. While the South had changed
comnaratively little since the formation OF the
(.ovcrnment and still cherished the pretudices OF
the time when Virginia the mother OF Presi-
scnts. the material. social and mental progress
NJ the North was attended by vigorous moral re-
actions Perhaps II was not accidental that the
financial panic OF 1857 was followed by the re-
,,9ious revival OF 1855 These events certainly
ala not weaken the feeling Of the majority at the
North that slavery was an outrageous wrong.
The morbid sef-consciousness OF the people helped
to emphasize this feeling. Those were days when
Americans imagired that they were a decaying
race when they talked much about climate and
their personal Ills when they answered the simple
question. How do you do?" with catalogue OF
symptoms. and behaved generally as II life were
a burden. Conscience was alert among the peo-
pIe. They confessed their own sins and the sins
of the Nation with fervor. The best sign Of re-
turning health was when they set about correct
ing their conduct. when they not merely admitted
the wrong OF slavery. but declared positively
against its extension. This mere declaration
tended to isolate the disease in the political sys-
tenn and TO concentrate the healthy forces Of the
Nation against It, But almost the only signs OF
unity and OF preparation were among the slave
holders.
These signs have led since to the belief on the
rart OF many people that the rebellion was the
result Of conspiracy rather than OF popular
movement. Mr.. Rhodes. after careful review

To support the theory OF conspiracy there was
the known fact that a group OF Southern Senators
and Representatives In Washington held meet

they were responsible for the progress or the

meeting OF this cabal on January s. 1861. as the
most significant. On that occasion, those VINO
were present acting as II they had controlling
voice In the matter. resolved that each OF the
Southern States should secede as soon as possible
and that confederacy should be organized al
once. While the action Of the junta on this occa-

secretly circulated. but were addressed to dele

days after the meeting.
belief that the Unionist element was intimi-
dated naturally grew out OF the fact that great
falling OFF was observed In several States IN the
vote for delegates TO the secession conventions
as compared with the vote for President In some
Of the conventions proposal to submit the ordin-
ance Of secession to the popular vote was defeat
ed. But these incidents are held by MI Rhodes
to have been due to open not secret causes Even
had they been less easily expainable than they
are. they would not suffice TO prove That tine
course OF the Southern people was dictated by
dozen or by hundred conspiratone from whose
secret conclaves in Washington and in the state
capitals went forth DEGREES nor that the politi-
clans led the people by the nose In fact the
Are-eating populace sometimes displayed con-
tempt for the delays Of the men who were sup
posed TO be their leaders. This was particularly
the case In South Carolina, where secession had
been urgently and persistently advocated ever
since 1892. and where all the people were accus-
toned to the thought.
