cure Treaty.

Seoul, Korea, Nov. 20.-Japan Friday
night surrounded the emperor's palace
with troops, virtually made him pris-
oner, and compelled him and his min
lister to sign treaty by which Korea
surrendered independence. At the be-
ginning of the days session Baron
Hayashi declared his determination not
to withdraw until the four demands
made by Marquis Ito were signed. The
suspense was ended at 1:30 o'clock Sat-
urday morning when the cabinet, with
the exception of the minister of agri-
culture and minister of foreign affairs,
Pakehisun, having yielded, sent for the
imperial seals and signed the desired
agreement.
The four Japanese demands were as
follows:
First-The appointment of Japan
ese administrator to govern Korea un.
der the emperor.
Second-The appointment of Japan
ese administrators at all treaty ports.
Third-The transfer of Korean diplo-
matte affairs to Toxic.
Fourth-No arrangements to be

TORPEDO BOAT RUN DOWN
Cruiser Collides with Smaller Craft
and Sinks Her-Thirty-Three
Lives Reported Lost.

Kiel, Nov. 20-Torpedo boat "S-
126" collided near Buelk with the
small cruiser Undine. The torpedo
boat sank and one officer and 80 sea-
men are missing.
The disaster occurred during the
maneuvers in Kiel bay. A torpedo
boat division was making regulation
attack upon the Undine, which had
blinded her lights. Later she sudden
ly used her searchlight, which con-
fused the helmsman of the "S-126"
and the torpedo boat got under the
Undine's bow and was struck amid
ship, causing the boiler of the "S-126"
to explode. The suddenness of the
catastrophe explains the great number
of victims.
1t is believed that all the missing
members of the crew were killed or
drowned Several wounded officers
were rescued.
The accident occurred in the midst
of a driving snowstorm and when the
night was very dark. The torpedo
boat sank in four minutes.

London, Nov. 21.-One hundred and
twenty-eight persons lost their lives in
the wreck of the London & Southwest
ern Railway company's steamer Hilda
off the northern coast Of France Sat
urday night, according to an official
estimate given out by the officers of
the company. This death roll includes
21 saloon passengers, 80 French onion
sellers and q of the crew.
st. Malo, France, Nov. 21.-Realiza-
tion Of the full extent of the disaster
to the cross-channel steamer Hilda
came to the people of St. Malo Monday
as reports of the finding of bodies
were received from different points
along the nearby coast. In all, over
60 bodies have been washed up includ-
ing that of Capt. Gregory, the COM
mander of the wrecked ship, which
now lies in the hospital here, and as
fast as other bodies arrive they will
be placed in room prepared for their
reception. The entrance to the harbor
of st. Malo is one of the most difficult
