The Foreigners Hand Is Upon Her
Throat Now.
SEOUL, Dec. 20.-Since the departure of
the preceding mail "A complete reorganiza-
| ton of the Corcan government has taken
place under Count Inouy's energetic di-
recton. The removal of Tai Won Kun
from the prime ministry has been fol-
lowed by disclosures duplicating several
members of tho cabinet in plots against
the Japanese, and in secret communica-
tions with tho Chinese court.
1t is now established beyond dispute
that tho incessant Tong Hak instructions
are not due to popular discomfort but
have been directly insti9ated by tho Of
flcials in the Corean capital with the pur-
pose of thwarting tho projects of tho Jap
anese representatives and preventing tho
exercise of Japanese authority. Count
Inouye has sought to establish nearer re-
lations with the throne, signifying his in
clinRtion 20 look upon its occupant as the
real center of authority. Tho results OF
his new departure are said to be thus far
satisfactory.
Sihce tho intercourse between tho king
| and Count Inouye began to take this con-
| fidentlal form It is noticed that the Tong
| Hak outbreaks have been suspended.
Several members of the government have
been threatened with assassination il they
undertake seriously TO carry out tho pro-
posed measures for reform.
An attempt to murder tho homo minis
ter Dec. Is was defeated only by the vigil
lance of tho Japanese employees of tho
police force. Tho English attaches in tho
Corean custom house have realized at last
that China's dominion is at an end and
have accepted the offers of employment
by the government of Corea. Koroshigo
II. Niyo, an experienced attache of tho
Japanese finance department, has gone
TO Corea with n largo staff TO examine tho
condition of tho treasury and formulate
plans of reform.

HELENA, Jan. 6.-Out of respect to GER
tain members of the legislature, who are
also members of the church, the republi-
cans did not hold their caucus tonight for
the organization of the house. The re-
publican senators had no religious scru-
Piles and proceeded with their caucus with
the following result:
President pro tem., Senator D. Z. Fol-
som of Meagher.
Secretary, Frank II. Foster of Yellow
stone.
Assistant secretary, James Wells of
Lewis and Clarke.
Sergeant-at-arms, E. S. Stackpole of

Committee clerks. NJ. Kendall of Fer
gus, Miss Albert Quirk of Lewis and
Clarke, Miss Nellie Conway of Madison,
Miss Albina Smith of Silver Bow.
Chaplain, Rev. w. B. Coombs of Mis-
soula.
The house republicans will hold their
caucus tomorrow morning. Both houses
will meet at noon and perfect their organ
ization.
The senatorial outlook shows little
change. Thomas Couch and w. K. Ken
yon of Butte came over tonight and called
at Carter's headquarters during the even
ing. Carter's strength is believed to have
reached its maximum, at least for the
present. About all the prominent men in
Helena, republicans and democrats, are
working night and day now in his behalf.
Mantle has gained steadily the last three
or four days and his friends believe that
his election is as sure as any future event
can be.
Governor Richards, on Monday or Tues
day, will appoint Judge Blake to the va
cant judgeship in Lewis and Clark. The
Beaverhead delegation may be found in
the Richards column, but of course the
governor would not think of trying TO
influence any representatives by any APP
pontment. The governors friends are
now claiming six of the Silver Bow dele
cation, a claim which the Mantle men
scout at as ridiculous.
The fight is waxing warmer every day.
Tom Power is not making half the noise
that the Carter people are creating. but it
is believed that he is doing some very fine
and effective work on the quiet. Tho
general opinion in Helena is that it will DO
Mantle and Carter. The Carterites want
to elect Mantle to the long term and in
that way shut Power out.

LIVELY ExD ESS WAR.

Rival Companies Fight for tho Posses
sion of an Indiana Railroad.
FoRr WAYNE, Ind, Jan. 6.-The Amer
lean Express company last year controlled
the business over the Fort Wayne, Find
lay & Western railroad. After the road
was extended to Fort Wayne all other
companies sought the franchise. The
American intended TO hold the business,
armed its messengers and placed them in
the express car. The United States Ex-
press company was granted the right TO
operate ITS cars over tho new road. Its
messengers appeared to take possession
of the cars.
They put express matter in at one door
and II was thrown out at another. Tho
trainmen, express officials. employees and
the poiice patrol service were mixed up in
a fight at tho station. The matter was
finally explained to the police, and the
American officials we're ordered to leave
the car. After a struggle the United
States company took possession.
