Some unfavorabe comment has been made
upon Japan's alleged failure TO reform and en-
tighten Corea after the Chinese war OF 1S94-'95.
which was waged by Japan largely for the sake
of doing just such work in the peninsula 1t
must be borne IN mind. however. that Japan did
not then have fair chance. The Russo
Franco-Cerman league against her for driving
her out of Shing- King both impaired her pres
tige and hampered her operations in Corea
Then Russian intrigues became active at Seoul.
In the face Of such conditions, with three great
European powers practically fOrbiddiug her TO
exercise any control over or even any effective
influence in Corea, Japan was hCpelessly handi-
capped. That she able to do anything at
