A CORRESPONDENT of the North China
Daily News says: Russia is gradually
securing firm foothold in the peninsula
of Corea. A few weeks ago number of
Russian military officers arrived to drill
the Corean army. Among these were
ten noncommissioned officers, and this
number is to be increased in the near
future. These officers occupy quarters
within the Enclosure of the new palace.
They are to act as bodyguard to the
king. who will doubtless soon leave the
Russian legation and occupy the newly
built palace in the foreign settlement of
the capital. Russians have also re
ceived several concessions, one of which
is the cutting of timber in the north and
on Daglet island, off the east coast of
Corea.

THE WEEKS NEWS.
TUESDAY, JANUARY IL.

THE Spanish authorities feel little APP
prehension from reported filibustering
expeditions, owing to the thoroughness
with which the Cuban coast ie being pa
trolled by the Spanish forces. 1t is
pointed out that the success of the ex-
petitions largely depends upon the
ability to deliver the goods to the insur-
gents, and that the mere landing of an
expedition counts for little. Under the
system established by Gen. Weyler the
movement of any considerable insur-
gent force toward the coast is noted and
stopped.
