JAPAN NOT At ALL AZ RAID
to Jssebo on Unknown Mission
An Interesting situation

The alarming report from Toxic that
Japanese war vessels have been dis
patched TO prevent two Russian war
ships reaching Port Arthur to join the
squadron there cannot be confirmed.
1t is possible this report is connected
with the statement of the Japanese
journal, the Nagasaki Shimpo. which
was to the effect that a Japanese squad
ron of twelve vessels had left Jasebo
for an unknown destination.
The fact that such a statement should
be issued by a Russian semi-oficial
agency is regarded as significant. In
Cardiff activity was reported on the
part of Russian and Japanese agents
with a view 70 securing further ship
ments Of coal.
The Daily Mails Toxic correspond
ent says that the Russian minister at
Seoul has addressed another note to the
Korean government declaring that II
Korea should ignore all warnings and
persist In opening Yogampho to for
eign trade, Russia will take active
steps to deal with the situation. The
Korean government has replied,
strongly Directing to Russia's inter-
ference as a violation OF Korea's SOW
ereign rights. A communication to the
same effect, according to the CORE
%spondent, was sent to the Japanese
minister at Seoul.

from Secretary Hay; went to West
minister Abbey. saw the king and queen
OF Italy on their way to the Guild hall,
and heard A. II. Asquith deliver a
speech. He is going to hear Mr.. Cham

Mr.. Bryan said the hsquith meeting
had a strangely familiar atmosphere.
and that the arguments had a ring not
at all foreign. He was greatly sur
prised on entering the hall to receive
recognition by a round Of applause.
Ambassador Choate will entertain
Mr.. Bryan at dinner at Charleton
House Terrace, where he will be given
an opportunity of meeting a large
number OF men prominent In British

poets to entertain the visitor at q din

Who Owns Colombia Honda

The bulk of the foreign Indebtedness
of Colombia is represented to have
been contracted before the adhesion
of the isthmus to the United States Of
Colombia. The money was borrowed
In the period between 1910 and 1921,
and before the formation of New Ora
NADIA, and while what is known as
Greater Colombia" included only the
Colombia Of today, Venezuela and Ecu
ador. The isthmus was separated and
was governed from Spain directly. 1t
Is probable that this fact will be ad-
vanced as a reason for the denial OF
the request expected to be forthcom-
ing from the foreign bondholders.

Mexican War Veterans Get &Ia Pensions
Commissioner of Pensions Ware has
decided that the Mexican war veterans
who are on the rolls at So a month
are entitled to M increase to $12 a
month despite a conflict of declarations
as to what constitutes the sixty days
service required of these veterans. The
pension bureau during the eighties is
sued pensions at SO each month on the
construction that the time of the home
ward travel after discharge was to be
included in the sixty days requirement.
Another secretary of the interior sub
sequently held that the travel time Is
not part of the service. but congress,
at the last session, pensioned at $l2
those then o the rolls at S." on ac-
count Of the Mexican war. Commits
sioner Ware has now decided that de-
spite the departmental construction
the act Of congress makes It obligatory
to increase the pension Of those al
ready on the rolls irrespective Of any
faultiness in the original action of his
bureau in granting pensions.

Commissioner Elliott Of Porto Rico
says II is a pity and q shame that dur
ing the four centuries preceding Amer
lean occupation Of the island little eff
fort was made to open up communities
ton: that SO small a portion OF the
millions OF dollars wrung from h
people in taxes and imposts should
have been spent In the betterment OF
roads. for education or any other use
ful purpose. "Pompous officials came.
ruled with vigor, tarrled a little while
and departed with q competence Of ILL
gotten gains, leaving the unhappy ma
tives to labor and suffer"
There are yet a number OF interior
towns whose only outlet Is over ancient
trails, but they are now being APP
preached as rapidly as possible. Tho
economic value Of road extension work
now In progress Is demonstrated, he
says, by a saving OF from 80 to 70 per
cent in the cost Of transportation to
and from the interior. The report
says that the power OF the mayors to
remove the officers Of their towns seri-
ously interferes with good sanitary
service and that consequently the peo-
pie and particularly the poor OF many
municipalities suffer and die for want
OF proper attention. Tho next session
OF the legislative assembly Is expected
to remedy this evil. The report says
that the advent Of civil government
found q majority of the municipalities
In a bankrupt condition. from which
none has fully recovered and most OF
them remain miserable"
The hospital accommodations"
adds the report. even In the towns
where p%retense is made OF providing
them, are sadly deficient, SO that the
sick poor who have not the means to
employ medical attention are left to
die or recover as nature wills Or native
remedies fail or avail. A great field
for philanthropy lies open to Porto
Rico"
The report says that coffee. n OF
the leading exports and sources of
wealth, has passed through many vicis-
STUDIES In the past decade; there has
been very little new planting; there
Is no profit to planters with coffee at
the present price, and should prices 60

ce.er.a. Goa, Strife Virtually Over

The focal union Of the coal miners
OF Louisville. Colorado, the principal
camp OF the northern Colorado coal
delds voted on the revised proposition
OF the operators and accepted 1t by a
vote OF 119 to B.. The only change In
the revised proposition Is that a new
distinction Is made between thick and
thin coal In the Louisville district. Six
feet is made the dividing line between
thin and thick coal. instead OF five
and one-hnlf feet. The Northern Coal
and Coke company was officially noti-
fed. The other locals will vote on the
REVISED. proposition. II Is believed the
proposition will be generally accepted.
The action OF the miners is largely due
TO the efforts Of John +. Ream, the

Eation. who advised the settlement In
