LOSS OF S3,OOO,O 600.
All Korean Government Records
Burned in the Palace.

Seoul, Korea, April 1.-THE emperor
received in audience last night the
members of the diplomatic corps. The
emperor had APPARENTLY recovered from
the shock caused by the burning of the
palace and was calm, making inquiries
as to the health of the ladies of the
legations, etc. His intifnates report
that he is still nervous, however. Many
Koreans believe that the burning of
the palace has a political significance
in that it will force the emperor to re-
turn to the Kyong palace IA the out
skirts OF the city Wh2Fe the queen was
assassinated in s1Sa5 and from which
the e1nperor fed to the Russian lega-
ton. The emperor, however, refuses
to return, claiming that the palace is
haunted by the murdered queen. He
prefers to remain in the imperial IL
brary, in the Kiuzikun, where he took
refuge during the fire, until the palace
is rebuilt
The electric plant which was totally
destroyed together with thousands of
dollars worth of instruments and ma
chinery, will be reinstalled.
The heaps of smouldering ruins are
being guarded by a Gordon of vigiIant
soldiers stationed one foot and a half
apart around the palace walls. The
superstitious populace is excited and
depressed over the fire, regarding it
as an evil portent. The fire furnished
a wonderful spectacle. The steep
mountains about the city were lighted
up as though it were day, hurrying
crowds of frantic Koreans and Jap
anese troops arrived on the scene in
double quick time. American marines
formed. bucket brigade and United
States Minister Allen took extreme
precautions to prevent the flames
reaching the legation. All the Korean
government records and accounts We're
lost together with much treasure. The
loss is estimated at three million dol
lars.
