IT IS A QUESTION
 OF LIFE OR DEATH
JAPAN BREAKS OFF RELATIONS WITH RUSSIA TO SAFEGUARD INDEPENDENCE AND INTEGRITY OF KOREA.

Paris, February 2s.-In explaining the JapaneseKorean treaty, M. Molone, Japanese minister to France. said:
 My government broke off relations with Russia in order to safeguard the independence and intergity of Korea This is new affirmation of the policy Japan has not ceased to pursue at Seoul. It in- novates nothing, and the Independence of Korea is a guarantee of the security of Japan. My country cannot, without ex- posing itself to suicide permit a third power to occupy Korea. It is for us a question of. life or death. We wish neither to annex DOT to subject Korea, but we don't wish Russia to incorporate the country, as she has Manchuria.
 The statement that the treaty pro- vides for Japanese protectorate is i'm aginary. A country subject to a Japanese protectorate would be in the same posi- ton as is Tunis toward France. If pro- vision were made for protectorate, as is insinuated, there would be at least the substitution of Japanese for the Korean administration. and the suppression of the Korea diplomatic corps, but everything will go on at Seoul as heretofore"

wake, changed their course to the north east and advanced but the enemy's searchlight flashing on them impeded their progress The enemy's fire struck the steering gear of the steamer Bushiu, dis abling her. She grounded near the Ten shin. After striking the officers destroyed the Bushiu and she sunk. The next steamer, the Buyo, was seriously dam aged by the enemy's shells, and she sunk before reaching the harbor entrance.
 Tn the meanwhile the steamers Hokoku and Jinsen had advanced with great ra~ pidity and had reached the entrance to the harbor with considerable difficulty. The Hokoku was on the outer side of the stranded Russian battleship Retvizan, and the Jinsen on the eastern side of the Retvizan. The crews each lighted explo- sives to destroy the merchantmen. and af- ter giving a loud cheer. got into their small boats
 When they found their vessels sinking the crews endeavored to row to the Japanese torpedo boats. which were ready to pick them up, but the Russian search lights showed their path and the Russian fire became very heavy. Those in the small boats were compelled to row around under cover and they were unable to reach the torpedo boats. The sea became heavier at sunrise, and the crews suf- fered great hardship They finally suc- ceeded in reaching the Japanese squad ron at o'clock in the afternoon.
