Korean Navy Had One Boat.

A Philadelphian recently on a tour

Korea and gives this summary of the
military and naval resources of the
land of the morning calm" Il was
amused" he said, by the serious way
in which the Korean officials spoke of
their navy. At Chemulpo L saw the
navy pass. 1t consisted of single
steamer, which had formerly been
collier, and it was armed with two
old fashioned muzzle-loading guns.
There is a regiment of Koreans in
Seoul who are being drilled by Jap
anese officers, but beyond that the
army consists of a rabble made UP of
anywhere between fifty and a hundred
thousand men, armed with collection
of weapons which begin with bows
and arrows, spears, pixies something
like the halberd, arquebuses and old
muzzle-loading rifles. There are few
Mausers, and 1 saw one detachment
that had every variety Of hunting gun
you could name. The officials are gor-
geous in their uniforms. but the file
a Kaleidoscope mob so far as appear
ance was concerned. The pay Of the
Korean soldier is cents day. The
Seoul regiment is the Emperor's royal
guard and is the only organization in
the army that shows anything like
discipline. But the navy! That would
make you laugh. ."-Philadelphia Tel

CORBETT CUTS OUT INDOOR WORK
AND WILL EXERCISE ON THE ROAD
Trainers Give Out the Information That He
Injuries His Hand in Bout With Monte
Attell---Jmmy Britt Is in High Spirits

Young Corbett has become estranged
from his beloved gymnasium and those
ever familiar boxing gloves. 1t is hard
for a little scrapper like him to give
them up, yet his chief advisers will not
stand for them any more, and from
now on until the night of his battle
with Britt the featherweight champ
will have to take to the highways for
his work and his pleasure.
Harry Tuthill, after long analysis
of the Corbett question, finally decided
that the Denver star had quite enough
of work with the mitts and the other
things that are generally found in
gyms. So he held a consultation with
Tim McGrath and jointly they agreed
upon the terms by which Corbett
would have to condition himself within
the remaining few days.
When the little man awoke yester-
day morning and partook of a sub
stantial breakfast, he was sent out for
his usual run, though the rain was
coming down faster than Pat Nor
rissey ever galfoped through the home
stretch. He was game and went the
distance in good time, arriving in due
season for the rundown and the
luncheon he enjoys.
The remainder of the midday was
spent in a few games of bridge and a
loll around the place. Although the
weather was extra juicy. big crowd
gathered at the tavern in the hope of
seeing the champion go through his
PAGES, and great was the disappoint-
ment when it was given out that moth
ing would be doing.
When the clock struck the hour of
three, the champ took to the Ingleside
road while the rain was breaking
through the heavens so fast that no
one could tell just what the speed limit
was. He was attired in a leathern
coat, two extra suits of underclothes
and shoes that were guaranteed to be
just the things for such storm.
He went the eight miles and return
in good time and came back all in a
glow. Then he was treated to whole
some rundown and after that was
ready for any kind of a good looking
meal that might be passed out This
will probably be his work twice a day
until the hour of the battle with Britt.
The last time he put on the mitts with
Monte Attell he injured his left hand
The San Francisco call., 1904-03-20

just wee bit, but it was enough to
put his trainers on their guard, and
they will permit the champion to do
little or no gymnasium work now till
he is ready for the ring.
With to-day ends Jimmy Britt's last
Sunday at his training camp in Ala
media, and a great number of the
friends of the challenger for the 130-
pound championship cf thaa boxing
world will visit the island city to make
a critical survey of the wonderful little
fighting machine that is to clash with
that other marvellous battering ram,
Young Corbett.
Britt, under the supervision of his
shrewd trainer, Spider Kelly, will be-
gin tomorrow the real work of taking
off the three pounds that have kept
him above the contract weight for ten
days past. This extra avoirdupois will
not be removed In day, nor in three
days, but will be separated from
its present owner by scientific and
gradual means. so that there will be
no impairment of the strength nor the
stamina of Corbett's next opponent.
Roadwork to improve Jimmy's breath
ing organs will be an important part
of the few days that remain for him
in which to prepare himself for the
struggle OF his career.
Inclement weather kept Britt indoors
yesterday more than usual. but it did
not have any noticeable effect on his
spirits. He went through the gymna-
SUM drill with the vim that has all
along characterized his preliminary ex-
ercising and at the windup tipped the
beam close to 133 pounds.
The Corbett people were willing to
bet 10 to 7 yesterday. but there were
few takers.
The sale of seats continued yester-
day and cast in the shade all previous
records of this character.

FIRE DAMAGES
AN OIL PLANT
Two Large Tanks Explode,
Spreading Blazing Con-
tents in All Directions
SCHOONERS IN DANGER
Firemen Manage to Master
Blaze After Long and EX-
ceedingIy Hazardous Fight

NEW YORK, March 19.-Three
Standard Oil Company tugs, two fire
boats and the entire fire department of
Elizabeth, n. j.. were called out early
this morning to prevent the spread of
an oil fire which caused loss estimated
at 100000 and which threatened with
destruction the extensive oil works of
the Borne & Scrymser Company at
E.lizabethport, n. j., and neighboring
plants and lumber yards.
The plant was partly destroyed on
the night OF February 81, causing a loss
of s75,000 The second fire began at
nearly the same hour from the
same cause-spontaneous combustion.
Spreading into the main plant. which
consists of eight or ten buildings and a
dozen big oil tanks. the fire became so
hot that the firemen could only bend
their efforts toward keeping it within
bounds.
Two oil tanks exploded, spreading
their blazing contents in all directions.
Fortunately the wind was blowing
from the northwest, carrying the flames
and ignited oil into Staten Island
Sound. Two schooners were taken out
into the sound to escape the burning
oil that drifted across the water Rivers
of burning oil began flowing after the
explosion in all directions across the
property of the company, which fronts
on the waters edge. A change of wind
would have carried the fire directly
into Elizabethport and probably caused
great loss.

Mrs. Newman was found guilty as
