Washington Aug. 23.-The Corean Minister chin
Pom Ye has returned from outing at New
England watering resorts. and has had his atten-

cerning an alleged rupture among Corean officials.
due TO the Minister'S failure to attend the funeral
Of Mr. Soh Chief OF the Privy Council OF Coroa.
who recently died and was cremated in Washing
but through his confidential secretary, Mr.. Car

Justice in Corea he signed the decree divorclng
the Queen from the King. Subsequently Mr.. le.
the present Minister at Washington. became Minis
fer Of Justice in Corea. and In the course Of an in

CREiT EXPORTS or CORN.

That this country has reached a new era in
respect 10 It's manlfes, destiny OF feeding the
nations has been by many overlooked For
thirty wears or more some Of the ablest officials
NJ home and diploma,iS,s abroad have been
striving 10 open way for larger consumption
IN foreign countries Of Indian corn from the
United States Some Of the elaborate accounts
which have been printed and widely circulated
with that object in view nave ellciied the de-
rlslon of the nnthnkng Bnt the persistent ef
forts have not proved entirely in vain. 1t Is not
the fact. as some have careessly stated that
exports Of corn never exceeded those O. wheat
in earlier years. That happened in the fiscal
wear 1871. with short yield of wheat; nor was
there a wide difference In exports OF the two
grains in the fiscal year 1890. when great crop
Of wheat and also cf corn were raised and were
met by an rnusua, foreign demand so that
exports Of wheat exceeded 1o9.Oco.0oO bushels
and exports Of corn exceeded lUj,OoO.oOo bush
81, in the same year. But the last crop year
has beef. The first IN which the oaigo OF corn
has greatly exceeded that Of wheat. ara It i
also the first time i. tie history OF the country
when for two successiv" years the exports of
corn and Of wheat have each surpassed 1UO-
: 900 600 bushels
Since ls92-when ile partial failure Of crops
abroad brought III unexpected demand for
American wheat 80 that 22lGGJsl2 bushels
including -four were exported IN that year, and
i01 912 135 in the following crop rear-the for
clcn demand both for wheat and corn materially
diminished until IN 1896 the quantity of wheat
exported fell to 1876, 443,96s bushels. -four lncud
ed But in that year corn took a new start and
exports rose to 101 .1OO,31i bushels. Exports Of
cornmeal are here included with corr. as ex-
ports Of wheat -four are with wheat. Many ex
pected that the famine in India and the short
ness Of crops in other countries would
make the Outgo Of wheat phenomenal in the
year which has just ended. and no doubt 1t
would have been much larger, and the price

Statistics prepared by the Treasury Depart
ment at Washington show a noteworthy increase
for the fiscal year ending June 80, 1891 in
American commerce with Japan. For the first
time on record the United States appears as
serious competitor with European nations for
the trade OF the island empire. Exports from
this country to Japan have risen in value from
So 2SS 2S2 in 1891 '92-a year OF great CONNER
cial activity-to S13 233 $40 in 1861 The
gain over 1S95-96 was alone over S5,5OO,OOO.
American products sent to the Orient were
chiefly cotton and cotton manufactures, manu-
fac,ures Of iron and steel. refined mineral oil, to-
bacco lumber and wheat -four. japanese imports
for the same period amounted in value TO S24.-
900 756-a decrease from 1896 OF about ST.
100000 The growth OF commerce between the
two countries is a natural and healthy one. and
should be fostered in the interest Of both peo-
ples Japan and the United States have always
been the best OF friends. and. in spite Of occa-
sional nurres like the recent Hawaiian corre-
spondence. are manifestly destined 10 continue
on terms OF neghborly regard and political and
commercial amity.

Arbitration Treaty.

Washington, March Sin executive
session today Senator Davis. chairman of
the foreign relations committee, offered
resolution referring back to the com
m,ttee the treaty of arbitration, and it
was agreed to. Atthe close Of the session
of congress pending legislation which has
not been acted upon fails. In the case of
the treaty, however, it remains as it came
to the senate from the president. but all
pending amendments offered in the sen
ate or pro .osed by the committee failed
and have 10 be reoffered.
AS soon as Senator Davis had offered
his motion to refer the treaty back to the
committee Senator Morgan raised the
point that this could not be done. There
was considerable discussion as to the
parliamentary status of the treaty, and
after it had been explained the resolution
of Senator Davis was adopted without
division.

John johnson, the Eel Dora Miner, Oper
ated on Yesterday Afternoon.

John johnson, the El Dora Miner, Oper-
ated on Yesterday Afternoon.
1t is reported today that Johnson, the
man injured at Ell Dora yesterday after
noon while heating powder on stove, is
in very critical condition, but hopes are
entertained for his recovery.
Drs. Harrison and Rice were summon
ed to the wounded man as soon as he
was brought down. His principal injury
was fracture of the skull, five inches
long, and in order to relieve the pressure
on the brain, trepanning was resorted to.
A small button of the skull was cut out
and the depressed portion raised. The
left hand and both legs were also pretty
badly cut up. The man was conscious
this morning and able to make known his
wants, as his powers of speech still re-
main. The auditory organs, however,
are so affected from the conclusion sus-
tanned by the brain, that he can hear
nothing. His eyesight also is completely
destroyed. The attending physicians
believe that while the chances are very
slim for his recovery, his condition today
is encouraging.
Johnson was interested in the Weldie
] property at Ell Dora in company with
Messrs Everett and Dodd and was
working the mne with the former. The
man Metcalf was not working on the
property. but merely shared the cabin
with the other two.
1t appears that Everett had placed the
frozen giant sticks on the hearth of the
stove and had gone out of the cabin for
a few moments and the explosion occur
red while he was gone. The explosion
was heard all over the camp and many
ran to the scene to lend them assistance.
A Colorado Springs physician, DR.. Keys.
lent his aid in dressing the wounded
men, and A. M. Hunter and E. E.
Wheatley brought Johnson to Boulder to
receive further medical treatment
Metcalf was not SO badly wounded as
the other, but 1t is feared that he will
lose his eyesight. He has brother in
Longmont, L. d. Metcalf, who was sum-
moned Immediately upon the arrival OF
buggy in Boulder yesterday afternoon.
