Once again Japan finds herself in

Ing freshness This is by no means
new experience for Japan. It was
in the third century A. D. that the
empress regent of Japan herself led
an expedition against Korea. From
that time to the end of the fourteenth
century, with few Interruptions the
relations OF Korea to JaRan were
those OF vassal to suzerain. Then

But the Japanese showed little wis

At the same time series of the

Japanese Knew His Method of Sail
ing, and Laid the Trap.
A letter from Moscow to the Lon
don Telegraph says; admiral Max
aroff, unaccustomed to maneuyer a
large squadron in so dificuIt a place
as Port Arthur, frequently had such
slight mishaps as collisions of ships,
which, fortunately, entailed no serl-
Gus consequences. Finally he drew
up and stereotyped plan of maneu-
vers, according to which ships had
to form in line of battle outside the
harpor, each one taking up specified
place, and from this arrangement he
never departed. The Japanese,
noticing this uniformity, anchored a
contact mine in the position assigned
TO the Petropavlosk, and in this way
the disaster was brought about A
few minutes before the catastrophe
an officer twice requested the admiral
to seek for contact mines, but he
was told to mind his own business.
The officer repeated the warning a
third time and Makaron ordered him
TO go away Immediately under threat
OF punishment"
