Advantnges That Would Accrue to

Korea, the real bone of contention be-
tween Japan and Russia. as ii was be-
tween China and Japan in the war of
1894 %, is certain to be the scene of
much fighting If there is to be war in
the far east. Meanwhile neither of the
threatening nations seems to care what
the Koreans or their emperor thinks of
the situation.
Korea is an Asatic kingdom lying to
the northeast of China, between the
Yellow and Japan seas 1t is about COO
miles long from north to south, 135
miles from east to west with an area
of about 10000 square miles. The pop
ulation of the kingdom, according to
the last government census. is 10.52S,

She would also secure the ice free

ports she must have for her great
railway system and the future crops of
Siberia. If Japan can seize Korea she
will have a foothold on the mainland
of Asia and the only possible outlet for
the immense population and growing
industries of her islands.
1t is pretty we'll understood that ia

possession of Korea than in forcing
Russia out of Manchuria. so that if
there is to be a conflict the first stage
of it will take place on the Korean pen

the royal council He assumed full
sovereignty in 1873. the kingdom hay
ing in the meantime been governed
with great severity by the regent, Vi
Hiung's father. who furiously persecut-
ed the Christian missionaries.
When the present ruler assumed con-
troll the country began to be opened up
and the former regent headed an insur-
rection aimed against all treaties and
foreigners An attempt was made In
1882 to kidnap the king. and the Japa-
nese minister had to fight for his life
in retreat TO Chemulpo. In 1884 the
king only escaped from the rebels by
jumping on the back of eunuch, by
whom he was carried into the Chinese
camp outside Seoul. Plots and in
trigueS soon became matters of COM
mon occurrence. This condition culmi-
mated in the murder of the queen a few
years ago. This was attributed to the
japanese. who wished to rid themselves
OF a powerful Russian influence. VI
Hung was proclaimed emperor In 1897.
The emperor Of ten thousand islands, y
as he Is styled in his native land, is de
scribed as Il man of small stature and
sallow complexion. With an oval face

crown prince is Vi Tchok. who was
born in 1874. The monarchy Is abso-
s lutte, hereditary and divine. and the
q emperor is supposed to be the master OF
the lives and pl operty of his subjects.

WORKS DESTROYED THAT
CANNOT Be REPLACED
Official Report on Loss from Fire
in University Library,
Turin.
WORK OF RESTORATION

ROME, Jan. 2S-An official report has
been made on the loss resulting from the
fire which occurred at the University Lii
brary, Turin, the most famous in Italy, Jan.
g. according to which about 300 MSS, in
Guiding almost all those of Oriental origin,
were destroyed. The number of volumes
lost has not yet been established. The fire
practically lasted twenty -four hours, and it
seems certain that 5000 volumes of Greek
Latin and other codices were consumed, as
we'll as the precious Venetian collection of
books from the library of Cardinal Della
Revere The codices from the celebrated
Bobbio Abbey appear to have been saved, as
was the Incunabula collection. Among the
codices saved is very ancient code of the
fourth century containing the gospels. as
we'll as many others OF later date. a classic
medieval book of the greatest value, called
"Heurs de Turin" by the Duke de Berry,
for which Great Britain once offered almost
any sum of money, now appears to have
been destroyed, as was an ancient French
translation of Dante. OF this latter work,
however, there exists another copy in
France. The Duke of Genoa, brother of
Queen Margherita, has visited the university
I'm company with the minister of public in
struction who offered $4,000 for the imme-
brary. and promised an especial appropria-
ton for its future needs. 1t has been de-
cided TO call to Turin SgnOr Marie, the
famous restOrer of ancient books at the Vat
which partially destroyed the Vatican Ii
brary recently.

DEFAULTING CASHIER
ROSE MAKES CONFESSION
Says He Spent $4,000 of the
Banks Money Specializing in
Grain to Pay Shortage.
WANTS SPEEDY TRIAL

CLEVELAND, o., Jan. 2S.-GeOrge a.
Rose, the alleged defaulting cashier of the
Produce Exchange Bank, which closed its
doors Jan. p, made confession this even
ing to the county prosecutor, telling of his
method of using the banks money, of which
he is said to have lost $751;, 600 The con-
fesson, while brief, is ample in explana-
ton. Rose said that he was alone in his
alleged speculation and that his use Of
the banks money began about six years
ago. He said that about three years ago,
when the loss had reached only $4,000. an
auditing committee was appointed to go
over the banks books. Rose had hoped
that his shortage would be discovered then,
but the end of a week or of investi-
cation the committee reported everything
satisfactory with the banks affairs. Rose
declares that he lived within his salary of
$125 a month and has not got a cent of the
money lost to the bank by his speculation
When the shortage had reached $4,000 Rose
said that he knew that he would have to
replace that sum, and seeing no other way
of doing it than by speculation, he con-
tinued to do so until the amount reached
1857 0OO.
His mental state has been miserable ever
since his specuations began he said, and
oftentimes he had been tempted to commit
suicide, but did not do SO because of his
wife and family. All of the entire sum of
$4,000, Rose declares, was lost with grain
spectators in Chicago. His Willingness for
a speedy trial and Imprisonment, he said,
was to relieve his mind of the worry that
fenced and to serve his term and afterward
begin life anew.
