London, Feb 9:-The Che Foo cor
respondent of the Daily Mail cables
that sixty japanese transports are
landing troops at various ports in
Corea, from Masampho and Fusan on
the South to Kunsan, mokpho and
Chemulpo on the west.
Seoul is TO he occupied, and the
landing is being covered by torpedo
division. The main body of the Jap.
anese fleet will sail in the direction of
Port Arthur.
Russia and JapanIhave plunged in
to hostilities without any formal
declaration, and with an energy that
is all the more startling in contrast to
the long period of negotiation that
ended when the japanese Minister de-
manded his passports in st Peters
burg.
Japan has seized two Russian
transports loaded with troops, has
seized crippled Russian gunboat in
one of her ports and has embarked an
army 10 invade Corea.
Sixty big steamers are landing
troops in Corea now. There are pro
badly 10000 in this force. Forty
steamships would carry easily twenty
thousand men and their equipment.
Japan has cut the cable to Corea,
so that the news of this advance force
stops with their sailing.

weeks. These expenses are comprised
in the Selectmen's S orders, and the cost
per capita was IA fraction over twenty
six cents, including the virus and an
tiseptics.
The expense attending, however, to
the town of Bennington will reach
nearly 81, 200. What would it have
cost had we not possessed a hospital?
The normal expenses of from $3.50 to
$500 per annum paid heretofore by
four Boards of HEALTH, have been
advanced this year to s84l, because Of
the prevalence OF diphtheria. The
orders drawn in favor Of the Health
Officer inclu the services of the en-
tire Board of Health, and such cash
advances as may have become neces-
sary. The villages paid nothing un-
der the law OF 1902. On account of
smallpox, the care of all the people
and patients in quarantine, the com
pensatiou of the Board for this SER
vice has been Sj5S.S5, covering
period of 1873 days.
A much less sum than was suggest
ed as reasonable by the State Board,
The expenditures by the local Board
have been in accord with the conserva-
tive policy OF the Selectmen in other
matters relating to the town affairs.
