London, March 23.-The Seoul cor
respondent of The Times says that
while deprecating precipitancy in ad-
ministrative reconstruction Japan rec
ommends that Korea shall gradually
eliminate foreign advisers of the gov
ernment and appoint no more for the

are mostly French, occupy advisory
posts with emoluments aggregating
100000, and half of these posts are
absolute sinecures.
The Japanese are displaying great
vigor in the construction of light rail
way to Pang Yang and other stragetic
projects, according to the correspond
ent, who says that as an evidence of
the thoroughness of her plans Japan is
preparing for the possibility of military
reverses in Manchuria, but that what
ever happens she intends to hold fast
to Korea.
Japan has 5000 engineers working
on the railway and 100 miles Of mater

BALFoUR ACCUSES THE LIBERALS
Says They Have Done::what They Are Now
Vigorously Opposing.


Vigorously Opposing.
Liberal governments. he said had in
the past legalized the importation of
such labor for British colonies and the
opposition was now reaping the bene-
fits of the evils which their own par
ty had produced. In conclusion Bal
four said that he sympathized with
the views of Australia and New Zea-
land because they were white mems
colonies. In South Africa the prospect
of great preponderance of blacks
would present difficult problem, but
the difficulty would not be increased
by the governments present crisis.
If the leader of the opposition came
into power, said Balfour, he would
do exactly as the government was do
ing, and would not indulge in vague
and inappropriate speeches about slay-
cry. Should Sir Henry Campbell Ban
nermann's motion be carried it would
tend to destroy or to indefinitely retard
the prosperity of the Transvaal.
Herbert H. Asquith. in closing the
debate, denied that any clear or over
.whelming opinion in the Transvaal de-
manded Chinese labor, and he main
tanned that practicable and less OBJ
jectionable alternatives had been sug-
gested. He agreed that the economic.
position of the Transvaal was serious,
but asserted that If healing forces
were allowed to operateand fair wages
and good conditions were secured to
white and black laborers alike the serf-
Gus features would be removed.
Many of the Irish members had hur-
ried from Dublin, where they voted in
the bye-election for st. Stephens Green,
In order to vote for the motion. In
the division thirteen Unionist members,
including Winston Churchill, abstained
from voting. Sixty-five Nationalist
members voted against the govern
ment, the majority for which was
larger than any in the several recent
critical divisions. The result was re-
ceived with cheers.
A similar motion was defeated In
the house Of lords by vote of 81 to
z5.

LIBERAL MOTION Is REJECTED
Government Majority Being Fifty
Seven OH the Transvaal
Labor Question.

London, March 22.-The whips or
were busy yesterday seeing that their
forces were on hand, for the first real
vote involving the life of the govern
ment was to take place at the end of
the debate on Campbell -Bannermann's
motion censuring the cabinet for con-
senting to the Chinese labor scheme
for the Tfansvaal. The vote was 299
to 242 in favor of the government -
majority over all the opposition of
81. ell-Bannermann opened the
debate. He said the Transvaal propo-
sition had sorely tried the people OF
the country; that Europeans in South
Africa were all opposed to the Chinese
labor scheme; that it was the greatest
departure Great Britain had ever made
from her principles, and that it was
slavery and nothing else.
SeeIy Deserts the Government.
Lytton, colonial secretary, made a
reply. declaring that public sentiment
in the Transyaal was overwhelming
in favor of the measure, and that the
Liberal leaders remarks were a series
of gross Misrepresentation. Major
John Edward Seely was the next
speaker. He had hitherto been a con-
sistent supporter of the government.
He said he believed the importation
of Chinese labor would render the
Transvaal impossible as white mans
country. He announced that. therefore,
he had rendered his resignation to his
constituents. because he did not think
it fair that he should vote against the
government without giving his consti-
tuents an opportunity of turning him
out il they did not approve of his ac-
ton.
Irishhen Object to Upi oar.
The conclusion of Major Seely's
speech was lost amid a tremendous
outburst of disapproval from the min
isterial side. Premier Balfour, who
followed Major Seely, was unable TO
secure hearing. the Irish members
protesting against the treatment of the
major. William. Redmond said that
BalfoCr should have insisted upon a
respectful hearing for Major Seely,
and when the premier said he had ap-
pealed for such hearing Redmond
withdrew his opposition and the house
quieted down again to listen to Bal
four, who i'm opposing the resolution
said it was question whether the
Transvaal should be allowed to go
through a grave commercial crisis
rather than admit Chinese labor.
