AFTER THE JAPs.
KOREANS WILL ATTEMPT TO GET
SATISFACTION.
They Hold That the Men of the Mi
I1ado Are Responsible For the
Murder of Their Queen.

NEW YORK, April "a dispatch to
the Herald from ST. Petersburg says
The troubles of which there have
long been rumors are at last matur-
ing in Korea.
According to a telegram from Vladi-
vostock to the Novoe Vremya, the last
news from Seoul says that the Kor-
cans are determined to exterminate the
Japanese, holding them responsible for
the murder of the queen. Bands of
men have been organized to threaten
the japanese factories. Japan has
sent war ships to Fusan and other
points on the coast.
The Novosti says that Japan should
by this time know Russia's feeling in
regard to Korea-that while she does
not wish to be there herself she will
not permit any other power to pre-
dominate in the hermit kingdom. The
king, says the Novosti, is perfectly fit
to rule, and when restored to the
throne the Russian troops will retire
Meanwhile great military activity
prevails in Japan. The army is being
increased. Instead of consisting Of
six divisions, it will in future be COM
posed of twelve, besides another divi-
sion of guards The number of regu-
lars have been increased from twenty
eight to fifty

BUTTE, Mont, April 9.-There is no
longer any doubt that the seven men
entrapped in the Hope mine at Basin
last night by fire breaking out in the
shaft are all dead.
James Dwyer, one of the engineers,
while attempting to make the connec-
ton of an air pipe over the burned
shaft this morning, was overcome by
the bad air coming out of the mine.
and was for time in a serious condi-
ton. On account of the foul air and
the amount OF debris that has fallen
down the shaft, it will be some days
before the bodies can be recovered.
Five of the men were putting the
two sinkers in the pump preparatory
to flooding the mine and two were on
the 100. The lift from the 200 to the
800 has been completed but couple Of
months, and there were no ladders in
the shaft from the 800 to the 200. 1t
is more than probable the men on the
300 are now covered with thousands OF
tons of debris, which fell from the top
of the shaft after the timbers were
DuIuSu away. LIE 1oull4IeS WHO were
stricken by the misfortune are heart
broken. There are no prospects of GET
ting the bodies out of the mine for
several days, as the mouth of the
shaft is blocked up with boulders, tim
bers and everything that happened to
De in the hoist, with the exception Of
the engine, all Of which seem to have
taken a plunge into the shaft.
The Hope was, apparently, a regular
death-trap. as there were no means of
exit except by the main shaft.
John Buckley. one of the entombed
miners, was a brother of Martin Buck
ley, superintendent OF the Hope. John
Buckley was married and leaves a
wife and two children. Patrick Buck
ley was single man. Murty Sullivan
and Hugh McKowen were also mar
ried. McKowen leaving family in
New York state Barney Wall Edward
Macarthur and Patrick Buckley were
unmarried. Ed Macarthur is a brother
of c.. J. Macarthur, formerly marshal of
this city. He was % years of age and
unmarried. His mother lives in Butte.
A brother of his was killed in the
High Ore mine here last October.
The Hope mine is largely owned by
Senator Thomas II. Carter and E. D.
Edgerton of Helena, and is regarded as
one of the best gold mines in Montana

STOLE A SERMON.
REV. ID. PARKER MORGAN A PGOUs
FRAUD.
An Eastern Discourse Which Called
Forth the Compliments of His
Congregation Was That of AnOth-
err Nan.

CHICAGO, April "a special to the
Tribune from New York says: The
ultra-fashionable congregation which
filled the fashionable Episcopal church
of the Heavenly Rest" in Fifth
avenue near Forty-fifth street, listened
to a touching Easter sermon delivered
by a prominent rector, the Rev. d.
Parker Morgan, Easter morning.
The millionaire pillars of the congre-
cation were there. F. w. Vanderbilt,
Cornelius Vanderbilt, H. Walter Webb
and o. P. Stokes. DR.. Seward Webb,
C. P. Huntington, Commodore Elbridge
B. Gerry and all the other prominent
residents of upper Fifth avenue. They,
together with hundreds less known to
fame, occupied the pews and at the
close of the service, congratulated the
rector on his noble and eloquent effort.
He is a power in the Episcopal clergy
of New York and was leading spirit
in the committee that investigated the
orthodoxy of the Rev. DR.. Heber
Newton, a couple of years ago.
The Rev. DR.. Morgan, moreover,
gave the newspapers a verbatim report
of his sermon for publication Monday
morning, and it was printed in full.
This sermon was read with great inter-
est by theologians until it reached
the eyes of Rev. T. G. Lee, pastor of
the First Reformed church of New
ark The Rev. Mr.. Lee had read a
few paragraphs of the sermon as re-
ported, when he became aware of the
fact that the sentences and thoughts
expressed in it appeared familiar to
him. Taking from a shelf in his
library a book published eight years
ago. and entitled Sermons Preached
in the Church of the First Religious
Society in Roxbury, by George Put
nam, Minister of the Society," He
turned the pages until he reached the
eighth sermon in the book. He placed
Dr. Morgans sermon beside the SER
mon in the book and found them
similar in language and thought from
beginning to end.
All day DR.. Morgan's rectory was
beseiged by newspaper men. It was
said the rector was i'll and not to be
seen. His secretary, however, made a
statement for him in which he ac-
knowledged that he had made use of
DR.. Putnam's sermon. DR.. Morgan, he
said, was so worn out by the hard
labor attendant upon holy week that
he did not have time to prepare an
original Easter sermon, as has been
his custom It was the first time since
he entered the ministry that he made
use of another persons production.
The doctor read the sermon in DR..
Putnam's book closely, and then die
tated it to his stenographer, who fur
pished copies of it to the newspapers.
IT was stated that DIR. Morgan was
almost overcome by the publicity
given to the affair, and it is believed
he will make a public apology to his
congregation next Sunday.

MAGAZINE EXPLODES.
Whole Companies of Chinese Sol
diers Wiped from the Earth.

VANCOUVER, B. c., April 9.-The
steamer Empress of Japan, which has
just arrived from the orient. brings
news of terrific explosion in which
large number of Z Chinese soldiers
were killed at Kiang Gin.
Two regiments revolted, and at a.
signal from their leader they seized
the guns of the forts and proceeded to
kill off all the officers and new regi
ment of soldiers recently arrived.
In the midst of the massacre a
magazine exploded and all hands were
blown ITO pieces. Two battalions must
have been wiped out of existence, as
not soul lived to tell if the magazine
went off by accident of designedly. All
within a hundred yards of the maya
zine were killed by flying shells. The
story of the 1nutiny is told by those
who watched it from a distance.
Besides an immense quantity of
shells, 1000 pounds of powder was
stored in the powder room. One COM
pany fighting near the building liter
ally disappeared from the face of the
earth, not a trace of any of them be-
ing found. Captain Kao, who was
sent in command of the battalions,
found them shockingly demoralized
and all sorts of crimes were being
practiced in the garrison town His
attempt at honest reform cost him his
life. Several cavalry officers of the
late war were killed.

the Spanish forces have been defeated
by the insurgents under Maceo in
Pinar del Rio, according to advices
which have just been received from
Havana, but not one word has been
allowed to go out in regard to these
engagements by the Spanish authori-
ties. The most important conflict oc-
Cured yesterday near Majana on the
strong line
Maceo's advance guard, 1000 strong.
attacked the Spanish column near that
place. The Spaniards were routed, &C
cording to reports, with a loss of 500
killed and wounded.
Prior to this encounter there were
enga gements with Maceos main army
west of the strong line, in which the
Spaniards got the worst of it.
1t is said in Havana the Spanish loss
in the four engagements was over 1,5OU
killed and wounded, although the gov
eminent suppressed all information
about the battles.
The number of wounded soldiers ar
irving in Havana proves the truth OF
the rumors. One train from the west
yesterday brought in 400 wounded
men.
Maceo's army is still west of Trocha,
but there are many insurgents in Ha-
vana province.
Gomez is still in Santa Clara prov
ince, moving toward Siguana valley.
Monday his army entered San Juan
de Las Veras The Spanish garrison
fled to the forts and Gomez secured
many arms and quantities of ammu-
nition Tuesday night the insurgents
again raided Hoyos Colorado, town
fifteen miles west of Havana. The
troops fled to the forts. After the in
surgents fled the Spaniards came out
of the forts and, seeing crowd in the
square, opened fire. killing four wo-
men and two children and woundlng
others Spaniards say they thought
they were firing on insurgents.

Steamer Rio de Janeiro Has a Tough
Time of 1t.
SAN FRANCISCO, April 9.-The Pa
cif1c Mail steamship Rio de Janeiro ar
rived today from China and Japan.
The vessel presented a dilapidated
appearance, nearly all of her cabins
and the woodwork on the upper deck
having been consumed during the per-
iod of her last trip from this port
when she ran short of coal
After having taken ON sufficient coal
at Honolulu the Rio proceeded to
Yokoham, where, after an uneventful
voyage, she arrived and underwent
temporary repairs
The ship brings but little news of the
epidemic in the orient Hong Kong,
China, has been declared an infected
port, and the steamship line from
there to Vladivostock has suspended
operations.
At Kobe a general quarantine station
has been established and systematic eff
forts are made to combat the dread
disease. Other than the black plague,
cholera and smallpox in a virulent
form have made their appearance.
In Japan more modern methods are
employed than in China, and as a re-
suit the death rate is lower in the
kingdom of the mikado than in the lat
ter country.

ton received here concerning Sergeant
William H. Cox and several of his com.
rades of Battery A, Pennsylvania Ma.
tional Guard, goes to prove that there
is an element of truth in the rumors
that young Americans are fighting for
Cuban liberty. The presence of W
Edergood, the half-back of the univer-
sity of Pennsylvania football team, in
Cuba fighting for the Cuban cause
also tends to give weight to what al
first appeared to be chaff.
That such rurnors in many instances
are true is proved by story, the de.
tails of which are vouched for, though
the names of those engaged cannot be
given out. This is nothing more OF
less than regularly organized and

as that told to The Herald reporter on
the night of the accident. The instru-
ment used in tamping, he said, was a
long steel drill. The coroner asked if
it were a crowbar and Mr.. Rogers OBJ
jected to the coroner suggesting any
thing, but was told that he was pres
ent only by the permission of the cor
oner. Said he was just passing
through the state, riding on whatever
part Of the cars he could get on. He
could not describe the piece of steel,
but was sure it was piece of steel
He saw the piece in the hole but did
not see them lamp with it. The wit
ness was closely cross-questioned by
Mr. Allison and Judge King, but in
sisted that the instrument used to
lamp was steel. Had talked with At
torney Weber about the accident.
After numerous questions Mr.. Weber
objected to Mr. Allison consuming so
much time.
Mr.. Allison asked the county at
torney whom he represented. Mr..
Weber replied that he represented the
county and asked Mr.. Allison whom
he represented. Mr.. Allison declined to
answer, whereupon Coroner Hall asked
the same question. Mr. Allison declin-
ed to answer and a lively tilt of words
took place which was finally settled by
Judge King assuring the coroner that
Mr.. Allison was present in perfect
ly proper capacity. Some fruitless
cross examination along the same lines
was then made.

125 and $50 feet from the hole when the
explosion occurred He thought the

Grain dealers allege a discrimination in

however, connected with the wheat buy

Affairs look SO serious again that
American tourists are hurrying away.
The passage of the belligerency reso-
lutions has caused excited talk. A
guard is still maintained at the Amer
lean legation, but it has not been in
creased. The feeling is prevalent that
a crisis is near, and that trouble might
break out at any moment. The cap
tain-general of Ferrio reports that the
fleet which is being organized there is
all ready to go to sea. The ships COM
posing it are the iron-clads Pelacio

They will forthwith be supplied with
the necessary war material and will
probably start for the River Arosa on

instructions until the government de-
cides on their ultimate destination.
