CENSORSHIP SEVERE.
Suspected Japan Has Some New and
important Move to Conceal.

HUPoTkoVt NVoNC W SoUSCdis
London.-The Daily Telegraph says
the Japanese authorities have refused
correspondents the use OF the field
telegraph lines and that all dispatches
must be sent to Toxic by mail.
The paper further says that there Is
no sign that any foreigners will be per-
mitted to 60 to the front, though the
native newspaper men will be allowed
to do SO.
The Daily Telegraph, In an editorial
on the unprecedented severity Of this
censorship, suggests that Japan has
some new and important move to con-
ceal, possibly the re-embarkation OF
a portion Of her forces already In
Korea for some other point in the
theatre OF war and is anxious to guard
against the possibility of leakage
through foreign correspondents who
might sympathize with Russia.
A correspondent Of the Daily Tele-
graph at Seoul reports that the Rus
SLAMS are evacuating the positions they
occupy in Korea.
Specials from Shanghai repeat the
rumor that the mikado will shortly
proceed to Korea with the headquar-
ters staff.
The Seoul correspondent Of the Daily
Mail describes Korea, outside the dis
tricts occupied by the Japanese. as
being In state of anarchy and in
readiness for rebellion. The corre-
spondent asserts that the censorship
prevents any reference to local dis
turbances.
