for the firing upon the American flag
by the insurgents.
There was heavy firing all day all

published here that the draft OF the
| treaty which Japan originally submit
ted 20 Russia contained seven articles,
the first OF which provided for the mu-
tual recognition OF the integrity and
independence Of China and Corea. The
second recognized Japan's right 20 ad-
wise Corea on finances and general ad-
mlnistration. The third stipulated that
Russia should not hinder the develop
ment of Japan's commercial interests
in Corea The fourth recognized that
Japan was entitled to send troops TO
such troops to be withdrawn when
peace had been restored
The fifth article provided that no for
tfcatlons be erected on the southern
coast OF Corea and guaranteed the
freedom Of the Straits OF Corea. The
! sixth article arranged for the eventual
Junction of the Corean and Manchurian
railroad systems and the seventh de-
nounced all previous Russo-Japanese
treaties relative TO Corea.
AZ late hour last night the Japan
csc legation was without further news.
There Is much conjecture this morn
ing as to the probable reasons for the
brief cruise OF the Port Arthur fleet,
According TO n dispatch TO the Daily
Express from Chef0o. the navigation OF
the harbor Of Port Arthur Is seriously
impeded by ice, which may have been
the reason why the fleet went out. An
other suppositlon Is that the vessels
had been so long laid up at Port Arthur
that the admiral In command desired
10 ascertain how they would behave at
sea.
The dispatches this morning from all
points are more pessimistIo. The Tien
TsIn correspondent OF the Standard re-
ports that the railway authorities are
still bringing all the rolling stock inside
the great wall owing 70 the uncertain
~ OF Russian movements, and the Rus
SLAMS have prohibited the japanese
from travelling on the railway,
The correspondent at Toxic OF the
Daily Mail says he hears that the Rus
sian fleet at Vladiyostock Is preparing
to sail.
There is renewed activity ut Cardiff
owing to the demand for coal
The admiralty agents today received
Instructions TO secure the prompt load
ing OF coal cargoes for the British fleet
in Japanese waters. Steam coal Is so
freely sold that II Is impossible to OBJ
tain spot cargoes. There Is strong
pressure for the immediate shipments
OF coal already purchased by Russia
and Japan and for the European ma
vles, hence several days are likely to
elapse before the British admiralty or
ders can be filed.
