New York, Dec. 19.-An awful re
minder Of the General Slocum steam
boat horror was the destruction by
fire Of the steamboat Glen Island on
Long Island Sound, resulting in the
death Of tive passengers and seven
members of the crew. The fire was
discovered wheN the steamer was of

In splendid contrast to the circum-

the name Of Fireman Newman Miller
stands out wildly as that of a man
who gave up his life in a vain en-

Against the SeVastopol,

Toxic, Dec. 20. - Although accus.
toned to hearing of acts Of bravery Oh
the part Of their soldiers and sailors
the people of Japan have been thrilled
by the details of the series Of .desper-
ate torpedo attacks against the Rus
sian battleship .Sevastopol and other
craft driven outside the harbor of Port
Arthur by the fire of the Japanese
land batteries.
Commander Yezoe and Lieutenant
NRkahara are the heroes of these at
tacks, and the former promises to gain
equal prominence with Commander
Hirose (whe on March 81 last was
blown to fragments in Vice Admiral
Togo's second attempt to bottle up
Port Arthur IN the war traditions Of
Japan.
Commander Yezoe's 6Otilla of tor
pedo boats was undergoing repairs
when the attacks were planned, but he
succeeded in putting one of his vessels
into condition for a fight On this yes
sci he promptly steamed to the rem
devious, and, finding that the other
notlila had gone, begged and gained
permission to join in the attacks. Then
he steamed through the snow storm
alone and succeeded in locating the
Sevastopol, to which he was able 10
get close enough to hear the Russians
talking.
Yezoe fired torpedo and then went
closer and fired a second torpedo, when
a shell from the Sevastopol struck him
in the abdomen, cutting his body in
two.
Portions of Commander Yezoes re-
mains were saved and brought back 10
the feet. They will probably come to
Japan for public interment, as was
done with portions of the remains Of

RUSSIAN JAPANESE WAR.
Present Struggle Based Upon Bond
of Long Standing Between
Japan and Korea.

"To attribute to Japan any purpose
of ACKNOWLEDGMENT in her present strug-
gle with Russia for the integrity of
Korea and China is a mistake Mr.. Col
gate Baker asserts, in timely article on
Japan and Korea, in Pearson's. ut is
quite true that there exists a war party
in Japan which regards Korea as vas
sal state of the mika0o, because of the
conquest of Korea by Empress Jingu in
203 A. d. But the great majority of the
Japanese people feel that Korea is bound
to Japan by other and stronger ties than
vested treaty rights acquired by ancient
conquest. The bond which unites Korea
and Japan is one of sentiment, born
ages ago, when Korea gave to the fierce
old Yamato warriors, their island neigh
bors and friends, the culture, the arts,
the industries, the science, the religion
and philosophy Of China.
"It is, of course, going too far to state
that Japan is animated by purely phil
anthropic motives in her struggle for the
regeneration of Korea. There is no
question that Japan can best serve her
own interests by the upbuil6ing and
reform of Korea, which she honestly
seeks, both for her own good and that
of the Koreans.
"The sympathy Of the japanese for
their Korean kinsfolk in their present
plight is one of the great forces which
has moved Japan.
'In the light of history it is only
natural that this sympathy should ex-
list. There is a large admixture of
Korean blood in the japanese people,
and although the origin of the original
Yamato warriors is yelled in mystery,
it seems quite probable that both they
and the Koreans sprang from kindred
Mongol stock
