JAPAN SEEKS WARSHIPS.
May Bug Tsoo ChiIiar, VeSsels- NO
Time Limit Set to Russia.

London. Dec. 26.-Japan is negotiating for
the purchase Of two Gillian warships. the ar
mored cruiser Esmeralda and probably the bat
tleship Captain Prat. which are for sale. 1t is
now only a matter OF price. Negotiations with
other South American governments for the pur-
chase OF warships are also In progress.
Baron Hayashi, the Japanese Minister to
Great Britain. said to-day, relative TO these ne
gotiations:
We want more ships OF course this is only
precautionary measure, and II may be LOT

sian reply Personally. I scarcely expect 1t will

truth in the report that Japans last note stipu-

Asked about the dispatch from Berlin of De-
cember "a. saying the British government had
represented to the Car that Great Britain
deemed Jaran's demands just. and earnestly
expected that Russia would grant them" Baron
Hayashi, while he was not aware of the precise
action taken by Great Britain at St Peters
burg. said:
The British government is well aware that
Japan will be obliged to go to war unless Rus

WORKING FOR OPEN DOOR
State Department Looking after
american Interests IN the East.

Washington. Dec. 26.-The situation in the
East has caused the officials of the State De-
partment to renew their efforts to secure for the
United States from China and Corea certain
necessary trade advantages as embodied in the
Chinese commercial treaty and in Minister
Aliens demands on the Corean government be-
fore the crisis becomes more acute. 1t is
realized that should hostilities break out be-
tween Russia and Japan, the resulting peace
treaty probably would leave the United States
and other neutral nations entirely outside the
pale of advantage in Corea and Manchuria, no
matter which way the tide of victory turned
Therefore the State Department is bringing
pressure to bear on the Chinese Court to insure
the speedy ratification of the trade treaty, and
as other nations have indirectly been given to
understand in this negotiation, il Is hoped that
Anal ratifcations of the treaty may be ex-
changed in Washington within three months at
the outside. This will result In opening to the
United States the trade of the ports Of Antung
and Moukden, in Manchuria. Across the river
from Antung, in Corean territory, lies WIju
and the State Department has prompted Mr.
Allen at Seoul. to renew his pressure on the
Corean government to secure the opening of
that port TO trade.

TROOPS GOING TO COREA.
Japan Soon to Send Large Force
Russia Consents to Plan.

Paris Dec 26.-It was learned from authorf-
tative sources to-day that Japan is about to
send large military force TO Corea for the
purpose of restoring and maintaining order at
the disturbed ports. The departure OF this force
vision of $4,000 men.
Japan has been assured that Russia will not
consider the sending of troops to Corea to be
an unfriendly act. and although it is anticipated
that the departure of the troops will add to war
rumors, they will be unjustihed in view of Rus
slas acquiescence.
In the recent exchanges of communications
between Russia and Japan the former country
fully recognized the need of the presence OF 4
strong military authority in Corea and cOnced-
ed that Japan was in the best position promptly
to send troops to the disturbed points.
The sending of troops, nevertheless. is con-
strued as having an important bearing the
present negotiations as it will be the first con-
spicuous evidence OF Japans exercise OF para
mount authority Corea. It is further said
this expedition were the cause of the recent
great activity at the Japanese arsenals and
dockyards, which, it is asserted. has been err
roneously ascribed to preparations against Rus
sia.
Information has also been received here that
the Foreign Minister. Count Lamsdorff has per-
sonally received Japan's reply and that, in
view of it's terms. he is said TO have expressed
surprise at the reports of Japans belligerent at
titude. This, 1T is added, is regarded as clearly
showing the amicable spirit In which the nego-
