C0REA SENDS PROTEST
Emperor Says Treaty Was Made
Under DurcSs and He WiH Not Sign

washington, Dec. 12-Homer B. Hubert, the
special messenger from the Emperor of Corea, is
in receipt of a cable message from Corea, in
between Corea and Japan is null and void be-
cause it was obtained by force. He also de-
clares that he will never sign this agreement in
Its present form, and that the disturbances
which attended the outrage of November II
are likely to occur again.
Mr.. Hubert said:
This Is the first genuine word that has re-
ceVed from Corea giving the real attitude of that
aneSe- bor several weeks the Emperor was prac-
ticaliy In confinement, and Japan gave ont the
false statement that an amiCable agreement had
Deeh MADE This is now proven to he untrue
The agreement was made under durass and at the
point of the sword, but the Emperor has last
succeeded in piercing the Gordon of Japanese and
getting information the world.
AS my mission to America is no longer secret,
may add that the Emperor anticipating SCme such
act or PAD falth on the part of Japan tried through
me TO forestall I by lodging appeal with Presi-
0ent Roosevelt. The object of my coming sur
missed: and the coup IN Seoul was hastened. so
thaI II occurred on the very day OF my arrival
In Washington The Emperor felt certain that if
President Roosevelt could be rlade of his
sentiments the American government would hest
tate and ask a few questions before accepting
Japan'S statements alone. The authorities in
Washington were almost Immediately notified that
made for its reception until after Japan'S state
ment was accepted and acted upon The object
scence in tho sOcalled agreement. and incidentally
TO call attention to that clause of the treaty be-
tween America and Corea in which the United
States definitely promises to its good offices in
case Corea is oppressed wronged. The United
States in full treaty relations with COrea up
to the time when, upon the representations Of
Japan alone. and apparently without consulting
COrea, this government took the lead in cutting off
direct diplomatic relations with Corea.

PEOPLE STILL TOO WEAK.
Labor Leaders UmaCilling to Risk
Struggle 1cith Government.

St Petersburg Monday, Dec. IL Cmorning).-
The Workmen's Council has rejected as un-
timely the proposition to order a general strike
st present, and has decided that the workmen
must wait patiently until preparations are COM
nlste The council realized the weakness and
unpreparedness of the workmen for a general
conflict, and had been informed that the railroad
men had already decided against strike.
The remnants Of the Labor and Socialist dele
gates held a secret meeting in the hall of the
economic Society at an early hour this morning
They declined TO accept the challenge of the
government, and merely adopted resolution
against the arrest of NJ Krustaleff. the president
of the executive committee of the Workmen's
Council. and the other st. Petersburg leaders,
which was said to be only Of local Importance and
not q cause for a general strike. The resolution
however said that it was the sacred duty of all
workmen to carry on the work begun by the
arrested leaders Of eQuipping and preparing the
lsgions of workren for an armed uprising.
adding:
In the name of the future proletariat we re-
fuse TO make any active protest at present.
A triunvirate hereafter viii guide the Work
mems Council The government on Saturday
arrested the most brainy men of the organiza-
uon and the remaining delegates not having
sufficient confidence in any one Of their number
chose an executive committee of three to guide
the policy of the council until worthy successor
70 81 Krustalef appeared.
The hopes Of the workmen's delegates, which
we're extremely depressed, have been raised by
the receipt Of a dispatch from Moscow, saying
that the revolutionary propaganda had finally
taken root among the Cossacks. the last hope
e the autocrats. The Sd Squadron Of the 1st
Regiment Of Don Cossacks held a meeting and
drew up demands saying that the men were fed
Ike dogs and shabbily clothed. The government
officials were forced to deprive the soldiers of
thsir rifles and lances This is the first sign of
disafection reported among the Cossacks.
The post and telegraph situation is steadily
Improving, though wires are working to
points outside of Russia, and telegraphic COM
muniCatiOn with the interior is bad. Many of
he striking operators have lost heart owing
70 the report from Moscow that the leaders.
Ehl arrested. were indulging in supper at a
popular Moscow restaurant and spending the
strike funds lavishy champagne and ex-
pensiye cigars.
