KOREAN UNREST.
Russia Told she Must Not Interfere
 Tension in Seoul.

Seoul, Jan. 19.--Russia complains that Corean soldiers are causing trouble. Corea answers that Russia must not in- terfere.
 The tension Seoul is increasing and the native press which probably is in- spired is more bitter against foreigners than formerly. The emperor's trusted advisers have daily council. The Russian and English legations have increased their guards by sixteen. The Japanese are buying and storing much rice in northern Corea. The Ginseng trade is dead.
 The Corean general, Yihak Kiun, whose synpathies are pro-Russian, has made a yelled threat against foreign CTS.

LARGE GRAND AVENUE fIRE
BLAZE DESTRoYsTHREEBUILD- IgGs AND OTHER PROPERTY.
Originating in Clothing store 1t spread to Adjoining Blocks-pomestlo Laundry, Furnisure Store and Fami- lies Among Losers-Frozep Hydrants Cause Trouble-Fsed Wire Burns aud Ties Up Trolley Line.

A fire originating in the clothing store of Max Kamen at 7S6 Grand ave- nue destroyed about ss6,OOO worth of property in three buildings last night. The alarm was rung in from box 42 at 9:15 and the fire spread from the block owned by pr. c. A Lindsey in which the Kamen store and the Domestic laundry was located, to the furniture store of S. Cohn and from there into the block owned by the Foley estate and occupied by Dr. Henry c. Klenke, J. T. Eagney's drug store and Edward Trombley. The fire was entirely de structive and it was only by the hard work of the fire department that it was confined to these buildings and prevent ed from spreading to adjacent blocks.
 During the fire, the feed wire from the Grand avenue power house of the Fair Haven & Westville road was burned and fell to the ground. The wire struck Frank Lahey, hoseman for Engine No. ?, and threw him sev- eral feet, rendering him unconscious for a short time. He recovered, however, land was able to continue his work. The feed wire that broke supplied many |street lines and the cars were tied up on Derby avenue, Congress avenue, Dixwell avenue, Sylvan avenue, Shell ton avenue, Winchester avenue, Church street and Meadow street. The Centerville and Mt Carmel cars were able to come only as far as Wall street and the passengers were obliged to walk to that place in order to catch their cars.
 The fire was first noticed by passers- by shortly after o'clock and the alarm was turned in at 9:15 Engines 2, 4, 8 and 2, Chemical 1 and Hook and Lad der responded The hydrant near the scene of the fire was frozen and the hydrant at the corner of Franklin street and Grand avenue burst shortly after the hose was connected. Despite these inconveniences the engines were soon at work on the fire but the buildings were Of wood and burned fercely, so that there was no chance of saving them. The efforts of the department to prevent the spread of the fire were suc- cessful since only the two adjoining books were burned.
 i The loss on Karne,i's stock of clothing was estimated at $5,000 and the loss on Cohn's furniture was $S,0OO. Dr. Klenke was away at the time the fire started and his loss is not estimated. The loss of the Domestic laundry was LOGO. In- surance is placed on all this as well as on the buildings. The Trombley family also sustained a loss, mostly from dam age by water.
 The firemen worked until long after midnight and small crowd watched the fire. Besides Driver Lahey only one other person was injured. A citi- zen was hit by a falling wire but was stunned for only moment, He went away without giving his name.
 1 At 2:15 this morning the force of men employed by the Fair Haven and Vest 1 vile road succeeded in fixing the breaks in the feed wires and the sys- l tenn then operated as usual

Rome, Jan. 1s.-The rumor of the death of the pope, which was circulat- ed in Madrid, having come to the ears of the pontiff, his holiness exclaimed to Ia friend:
 What, already? Leo was left in peace for five years after his election. while with me these rumors have be- gun at only the end of a few months. It may be a good thing to look at this from a superstitious standpoint but I am quite the other way and think it may even prolong my life.''

ITO TRY RRY. MR. ELWOOD.
ACTION TAKEN BY NEWCASTLE,
 DEL, PRESBYTERY.

Mfniater fs Accused of Preaching a
 Sermon That So Worked Up the People
 Of Wilmington That They Burned n
 Negro at the Stake for AssaulsiDg and
 Killing Miss Helen Bishop.
 Dover, Del, Jan. 19.-The Newcastle presbytery decided to-day to try Rev. R. A. Elwood, of Wilmington, Del, on charges in connection with the preach ing of a sermon by him last June enti- tied Should the Murderer of Helen Bishop be Lynched?"
 The trial will take place in the Pres byterian curch at Newcastle on Feb ruary 2. Former Attorney General Robert c. White. ., Presbyterian elder and a member of the presbytery, will defend MT. Elwood. The action taken to-day is in line with instructions giv- en to the presbytery by the synod of Baltimore, which. has jurisdiction ever the neNwcastle presbytery.
 The decision to give Rev. MT. Elwood an ecclesiastical trial was not decided upon until after a bitter debate of sev- eral hours MT. Elwood demanded a public trial, and that it be held in his own church at Wilmington. The selec- ton of Newcastle is in the nature of a compromise, as it is only few miles from Wilmington. The question of trying him in public or behind closed doors has not yet been determined.
 The complaint against MT. Elwood is that he delivered a sermon at Whining ton which, it is alleged, so worked up the people that the next night a mob gathered, stormed the workhouse, took out George White, the colored man who confessed to assaulting and killing Helen Bishop, and burned him to death at the stake.

PHILADELPHIA on November 26.

in Philadelphia on November rs.
With the opening of the season the
thousands of enthusiasts the country
over are interested to know what
changes will result from the amend
ed rules which govern this greatest
Of college sports. When the inter-
collegiate rules committee met this
year it made a careful study of the
experiments tried during the last
year, consulting the best coaches
east and west before deciding on any
innovations. After careful delibera-
ton the committee voted to change
the provision for seven men to be on
the line of scrimmage, between the
25-yard lines, by a new rule whereby
at least six men must be on the line
of scrimmage, in every part of the
field. This allows five men to be be-
hind the line at any time, but, in
order to protect the players from the
much-dreaded mass formations. a
provision was added in accordance
with which the fifth player back must
stand in a position outside of either
extremity of the line. This will per-
NIT a great many variations in attack,
but will lessen a massing on any one
point.
Next to these changes the most
important is the different method Of
scoring goals from the field. Hereto
fore a goal from the field, no matter
how made. has counted five points,
the same as a touchdown. Allowing
a goal from field to count the same
as a touchdown has always been the
subject of bitter criticism. Every
year there have been many instances
where this has resulted in the weaker
team winning, simply through the
possession of some one player pro-
ticient in drop or place-kicking. The
committee is Of the opinion that it
is not reducing the Importance of the
kicking game in counting only four
points for goals from field, but is
putting rival elevens on a more equal
footing. The committee reasoned that
If one team scored two touchdowns
and failed to kick either goal it could
be beaten by a team that was able to
score only one touchdown, but which
made a lucky goal from the field. 1t
was to prevent this inequality thai
the new rule was made.

George Gardner failed to put out
Jim Flynn in 10 rounds In Denver
last night. His steam was not suf-
fcient to put away the big fellow and
the referee called the go a draw.
Jimmy Britt has consented to fight
Joe Cans after his next go with
Young Corbett.
Billy Woods and Tommy Burns
fought a draw al Seattle last night.
Burns was much the cleverer, but his
blows lacked force enough to dis
mantle Woods defense. The fight
went Is rounds and Burns broke his
hand in the eighth round. The de-
cision of the referee was not salts
