Chlnhai was the spot on which Russia
cast eyes simultaneously with the
opening of Masampho to international
trade, and Japan entered an energetic
protest at the time against Russia's
endeavors to obtain foothoId there
for precisely the same reason that she
refuses now to consent to a permanent
Russian absorption Of Masampho or
any other part Of Korean territory.
Chinhai would be perhaps more useful
to Russia than Masampho, 1t being If
anything the better anchorage of the
two, but either, in Russian hands,
would constitute a constant menace to
Japan's safety II Is characteristic Of
Russia's disingenuousness, perhaps,
that she should simulate a readiness, in
the eyes of Europe, to content herself
with either port as a naval station
when in point of fact the two places
are, for her purposes, identical and
equally impossible from Japan's point
of view.
Chemulpo, the port OF the capital and
terminus Of the railway. has been
greatly excited during the past few
days. for the powers have been landing
bodies of marines there to guard the
legations at Seoul. The Americans are
greatly interested in Chemulpo as they
have big electric works there for the
railway and the lighting of the town.

reals, rice being the chief, which is
mainly exported to Japan. and Of
which there are two crops every year,
the soil In southern Korea being very
fertile. The country is also well wa
tered by several large rivers, which.
however, for the most part are rem
dered useless for navigation except
close to the sea, owing to the rapidly
OF the currents. The Han river Is a
notable exception. This river separates
Northern and Southern Korea and is
navigable for upwards of 200 miles. 1t
is largely used by merchants for the
conveyance Of their wares, which are
carried In shallow, flat-bottomed boats
called junks," towed by coolies along
the river bank in It's upper reaches as
far as Ensan.
The Yalu Is the longest river In the
peninsula, with several tributaries. 1t
has three mouths, its delta or islands
being completely submerged during
the melting of the SHOWS. Antung is
the Chinese town opposite the Korean
town of Wiju, about fifteen miles UP
the river. Antung continues in Rus
sian occupation. WIFI is on the prin-
cipal high road to and from Chinese
territory and is the depot for the ex-
port of ginseng.
Regular bridges are practically un-
known except the iron railway bridge
close to Seoul. Those in use are mere
temporary ones, and are generally
washed away during the rains. The
roads are execrabie, the only wheel

SOME INFORMATION ABOUT
THE KOREAN PENINSULA

II OREA is separated from Russian
AZ Manchuria by the rivers Yalu
and Tumen, but Russia with steady
persistence has for some time gradually
encroached into Korean territory, push
ing her way south Of these rivers. Her
methods have been ingenious. She has
obtained permission from the Korean
government to send parties Of men for
the purpose of cutting timber in the
large forests south of the Yalu. These
peaceful woodcutters have become set
tiers, and 1t is reported that they have
established fortified posts in the north
of Korea. 1t is perhaps only natural
that Russia should attach so much
value to gaining foothold in Korea,
hampered as she is by her Ice bound
ports of Vladivostock and Port Arthur,
for does not this country possess an ex-
cellent coast line with natural harbors
and ports of call which are practically
free from ice all the year round?
an size Korea much resembles Great
Britain, but differs In so far that it is
extremely mountainous, being trav-
ersed by a long range lying at right
angles. The climate for the greater
part of the year Is considered very
healthy, and like India receives Its rain
chiefly from the southwest monsoon,
which lasts about three months. The
chief products Of the country are ce-

transport consisting of bullock carts,
light baggage being mostly conveyed
by means Of coolies and ponies.
There is a single line of railway be-
tween Seoul and Chemulpo, a distance
of thirty miles. This railway was
constructed in 1900 by an American
company, but is now in the hands of
the Japanese. The circumstances were
as follows: The American company,
Morris & Co., received q concession
from the Korean government for the
construction of the line on the under
standing that the concession should
not fall into foreign hands Morris &
Co. had, however, a very limited cap
ttal and found 1t necessary to raise a
loan for the completion of the railway.
This loan they raised in Japan, giving
as surety the future profits Of the line,
and thus gradually 1T became Japanese
property as the railway was only
worked at a loss. This japanese COM
pany then obtained concession from
the emperor of Korea to build line
from the capital, Seoul, to Fusan,
which is the chief seaport of South
ern Korea. Up to date only g. few
miles Of permanent way have been
constructed; when 1t is finished the
total length will be about 270 miles.
The projected line has already been
surveyed, and although owing to the
mountainous and rocky nature of the
country the engineering difficulties will
be serious, yet the company expects
to have it completed by the end Of
1904. A line has also been surveyed
from WIFI to Seoul, distance of 300
miles, but so far little has been done
towards it's construction. The tele-
graphs, now also under Japanese con-
troll, connect the capital with Fusan,
Masampho, Chemulpo and Wiju.
AS has been already mentioned
Seoul is the capital town and also the

seat of government. 1t is here that
the emperor chiefly resides 1t is an
old and somewhat picturesque town,
boasting of few broad streets inter-
sected by endless narrow alleys and
lanes of the true Eastern type. The
houses are mostly of mud with thatch-
ed roofs, though certain number of
stone buildings and a Roman Catholic
church mark the presence of a small
European community. The town lies
in hollow surrounded by high hills.
Running from the eastern gate is an
electric tramway opened in May, 1899.
This line has a length of about eight
miles and was also in the first instance
the result Of American enterprise, but
is now worked by a Korean company.
The tramWay was somewhat expen-
sfve amusement for the Koreans as the
cost of it's construction amounted to
over &40,000. Electric light has also
been introduced In the city, the chief
thoroughfares and the neighborhood of
the palace being lighted by this means.
1t strikes one as strange to see this
light shining side by side with the ma
tives' rude tallow candle and faring
torch in the bazaar close at hand, and
further to see also the electric tram
passing through the streets in such
close proximity to the long strings of
heayily-laden oxen and ponies which
not infrequently obstruct the way, so
strangely does modern civilization in
termingle with the long established
customs Of the East.
Russia wants the ports Of Masampho

TONS Practically these form one and

Chinhai is situated on an inlet adj

pho, the distance by land being some
six or seven miles only, though 1t 10
