Paris. Feb. 25.-In dispatch from
Berlin the correspondent there of the
Petit Paristen gives the substance of
an Interview which a distinguished
Frenchman has had with Count Won
Buelow, the German imperial chanecI-
Tor. In this interview the chancellor
declared, according to the correspond

Germany. but that they did not imply
hostility toward Great Britain or Lace
Of appreciation of Japan's valor and
efforts toward progress. He denied en-
phatically that Germany had aggrcss-
we plans in the far east or the near
east. Germany was peaceful aud
sought commerce, not conquest. He
declared also that the idea that Ger
many was seeking to suppiant France
with Russia to be entirely without
foundation and added:
We are convinced that ths Franco
Russian alliance, like the triple ALI
ance, is an element in the preserva-
ton Of the European status quo. We
do not seek to destroy this alliance;
on the contrary, we wish it to endure
as long as it maintains It's present

TREATY WITH KOREA.
Japan Guarantees Integrity Of Her
Eait Kingdom.


Washington, Feb. 2f.-Secretary Hay
has received information that Japan
has negotiated a treaty with Korea,
whereby she guarantees the indepen-
dence and integrity Of Korea
This is regarded here as one of the
cleyerest of the many startling diplO-
matte moves that have been made in
connection with the whole eastern
question. The effect is to place Japan
on high moral plane, for il is under
stood here that this treaty is an an
nouncement TO the world that if she
prevails IN her struggle with Russia,
involving military occupation Of Korea,
Japan viii take no advantage OF that
fact, but viii maintain the indepen-
deuce Of the Hermit kingdom
On the other hand the Russian note
complaining of the violation of Korean
neutrality by Japan Is believed here TO
be intended to pave the way for future
heavy reClamatiOns, indeed involving
the seizure Of Korea and its annexa-
ton for violation of neutrality in the
event that Russia triumphs in the pres
ent struggle.
Contrasting the two positions, an Off
cial here pointed out that the attitude
OF Japan toward Korea was very
similar to that of the United States 20
cuba when the former occupied the
island with its military forces only to
withdraw them and free Cuba after it
had rid her Of Spanish control

tinues firm in the belief that there is
no ground for apprehension at present
that the war Will extend beyond the
two belligerents and Korea.
It viii not surprise diplomats con-
versant with Japan's plans to see an
early announcement from Toxic de-
claring that practically all Korean
