DIVIDED INTO TWO FORCES.
Japanese Army In Complete Control
of Korea.

Japanese Army In Complete Control
of Korea.
Shanghai, April 19.-Authentic ad-
vices from Seoul, dated the 18th inst,
declare that the Japanese are in COM
plete control of Korea and that the
Russian scouting parties have retired
across che Yalu before the Japanese,
who occupied Wiju practically without
resistance. The Japanese army is
divided into two forces, one for expe-
dictionary purposes and the other for
occupation. The former, numbering
$4,000. is advancing 10 the Yalu, and
the latter, consisting of $4,000 re-
servists, is making far sighted commu-
nfcation arrangements with the head
quarters at Seoul, where there is a
garrison Of 1000. The headquarters of
the transport service is at Chemulpo
Railroad building and road grading is
progressing rapidly. The fortification
of Kojedo island, at the mouth of Ma
sampho harbor, which protects the
southern terminus of overland commu-
nication, also guards the passage to
Vladivostok and Port Arthur through
Broughton strait. Forty transports off
kaiju are supposed to have landed
part Of their forces at Takushan and
1t is the evident intention to disem-
bark second army at Yongampho
preparatory to forcing the Yalu.

THE CITY OF MEklNEZ,
One of the Royal Residences of tn
Sultan of Morocco.

One of the Royal Residences of the
Sultan of Morocco.
There Is no more interesting city in
Morocco than Mekinez. Founded and
built by Mulai Ismain, the tyrannical
sultan who reigned through the middle
Of the eighteenth century, it still dis
plays the extraordinary buildings which
he caused to be erected, largely by the
hid of Christian slaves. Today it is I'M
possible even to guess the purposes for
which many of these masses Of mason
ry were constructed. Walls Of great
thickness, some wide enough to drive a
carriage and pair along, are met with
In the most unexpected places, running
here parallel, here at right angles to
one another, and seeming as though
built for no purpose except for the em-
ployment Of the vast number Of forced
laborers that Mulai Ismain always kept
at his court. Here and there are gate
ways Of great beauty, such rs the deli
cate tiled gate Of "Mansur el-Alj," with
its large marble columns and Corin-
THAN capitals, supporting buttress Of
gray stone and arabesques, but on the
whole it Is rather the vastncss of the
buildings than any artistic value that is
remarkable.
The old palaces of Mulai Ismain are
in ruins today, and each sultan in his
turn has erected new residences till
the Imperial palace today consists of
collection of buildings Of every shape
and size, scattered among gardens in
closed by high walls. a tower, which
was unconpleted at the time of the late
sultan's death, remains today just as
the workmen left it, with the scaffold-
ing still standing. Adjoining the pal
ace is large park, in which are kept
a number of mares, ostriches and ga
zelles.
The city itself is tolerably clean, and
possesses no particular features that
are not common to all Moorish towns.
The entrance Of the principal mosque
IS striking, with great bronze doors said
to have been brought by the Moors
from Spain. The shops are compara-
lively few, and the trade never large
