RUSSIA AND COREA.
England jealousy Watches Developments
in the East.

In the East.
London, Oct. 26.-The dispatch from
Shanghai Thursday afternoon, an
nouncing the departure of feet ofnine-
teen Russian warships from Vladivo-
stock for Chemulpo and Fusan, Corea,
and the Times dispatch from Hong
Kong, announcing that Russia has OBJ
tanned the right to anchor her fleet at
Port Arthur, and construct railroads on
the Liao-Tung peninsula, have caused
intense excitement in official circles
here as well as in those having COM
mercial relations with the far east.
These most important statements are
looked upon generally as being sud-
den reopening in an unexpected quarter
of the far eastern question in it's widest
sense.
The Shanghai dispatch added that the
Japanese feet in Formosa waters had
been recalled, that several British war
ships had been ordered to Corea and
that preparations for struggle were
visible on all sides. The Hong Kong
cable message to the Times caused that
paper to remark, editorially, Friday:
Russia cannot possibly imagine that the
great powers will view with Indifference
such a destruction of the balance of power.
which is almost unparalleled in it's audac-
ity. China's option to purchase the rail-
ways is a jest almost too cynical to IND a
place in any serious diplomatic transact
ton. Under the indicated conditions Man.

sian province, while Picking would be with

Oppenheim said only two other persons

he described them minutely and re-
counted the particulars of their visits
as if they had occurred yesterday.
Oppenheim was asked regarding other
specific days, answering promptly. In
the minds of the spectators of the
courtroom he was too good witness,
remembering events on special days
months back with extraordinary vivid
ness. The counsel for the defense tried
to confuse Oppenheim by showing him
a number of silver articles and inquir-
ing if he had ever seen them before In
many cases the paWnbroker replied in
the affirmative and described the per-
sons who had tried to sell or pawn
them. The defense evidently consfd-
