King Edwards Mediation.

London.-The continental press Is
keenly discussing the widespread re
port of King Edwards mediation. Il
is generally recognized that mediation
is impossible under the present con
dition. One side or other must have
substantial success on land before in
tervention can be proposed, yet the
Telegraphs Berlin correspondent says
it seems the widespread opinion there
even to the best informed in the diplo
matte and official circles, that some
thing has happened during the pas
fortnight to JUSTIFY the belief tina
some strong, cool hand is at work pre-
pairing the way to a cessation of hos
tilities and awaiting only the psycholo
gical mountaineering, Of course, t
King Edward.
Even the semiofficial Allgemeine lei
tung takes it for granted that thu
kings influence predominates. Wha
is gathered from the general tone o
the continental press is the existence
of a belief that ming Edward is pre-
pairing to act, also that the Germans
realize keenly they are being rele
gated to the diplomatic background.

Army on Either Side-

There is no official information that
any decisive fighting has taken place
on the Yalu river, neither have any re-
liable reports been received at New
chwang that the Japanese have at
tempted to cross, although the oppos-
ing lines, it is understood, now occupy
the two banks of the river.
The Russians are preparing to resist
a Japanese advance by the further con-
struction of entertainments and other
Notifications on the. Manchurian side
of the river, especially opposite the
points where the Japanese have con.
centrated their forces within the last
few days, and all reports of decisive
engagement on the Yalu are prema
ture.
Advices from the provinces of Hang
Yung, in eastern Korea, state thai
the country folk along the northern
border of the province are selling cat
