JAP TROOPS AT SEOUL.
Reported Massacre of Chinese by
 Russians.

London, Feb. u.-Special dispatches from Tokio this morning announce the arrival of Japanese troops at Seoul, but beyond this the dispatches published in the newspapers here this morning add practically nothing to the knowledge of the actual situation:
 The Tientsin correspondent of The Stan dard sends in a report that the Russians have massacred 100 Chinese at Liao Yang, in consequence of which the officials at Shan Hal Kwan are greatly alarmed and are appealing to Pekin for protection.
 Other dispatches from Tientsin say that 90 French troops have been ordered from there to Seoul for the protection of the French legation at the Korean capital, the Emperor having taken refuge there. These reports lack confirmation.
 The correspondent of The Daily Mail at Tientsin says that Li, the favorite court official of the Dowager Empress of China, has been decoyed away and beheaded by order of Yuan Shi Kal. commander in chief of the Chinese army and navy. u was pro-Russian in his feelings.
 The Che Foo correspondent of The Daily Express asserts that the Russian cruiser Diana was injured by shot from the Russian shore battery at Port Arthur and that the cruiser Novik and the battleship PaltaVa have also been beached at Port Arthur.
 Special dispatches from Tokio report that fugitives from Vladivostock accuse the Russians of openly footing Japanese houses there without interference by the police.

JAPs THE BETTER SAILORS.
Germans Think the Russians Are
 Outmaneuvered.

Berlin, Feb. 10.-NavaI men discussed little else at the admiralty today than talking about the Japanese Russian en- agreements and the deductions to be drawn therefrom.
 One conviction was that Japan had &C., ouired such q superiority that her com mand of the sea practically results. Tho unwillingness of the Russian fleet at Fort Arthur to the protection of the shore batteries, enables Japan. in the opinion of naval experts here, to conduct her land- ing operations unmolested. It Is believed Port Arthur will be invested on the land side as quickly as possible.
 One of the objects of the Japanese in engaging the forts. 1t was further pointed out doubtless was to draw the Russian fire and locate the Russian guns on the shore That the Japanese ships withdrew was not regarded as indicating losses.
 A contrast is also made between the condition of Japanese and Russian ships. All the former were docked within six weeks and every b,t of internal apparatus was in perfect order and tuned up for ac- ton, while some of the Russian vessels, 1t was added, had not been docked for a year. The course taken by the Japanese new cruisers. the Nisshin and Kasuga, af- ter leaving Singapore, is one of the sub tects for speculation. the favorlte view being that they sailed westward so as to lie in the course of the Russian troop ships bound eastward Although the two new Japanese cruisers are far from com pletely equipped, they might be an even match for Russian armored cruiser Di' mitrl Donskoi and her accompanying tor pedo boats
