EXPECTED TO BEAR
OF SERIOUS TROUBLE

Lieut.-Col. Fowke of the British
Army, who was attached to Kuroki's
army in Manchuria since last June. is
passing through on the steamship
Mongolia, en- route to London, to make
his report. Col. Fowke served all
through the South African war in the
Engineer Corps.
The Colonel did not witness a battle
in Manchuria, as the end of the war
practically came with the naval battle
of the Japan Sea. He did not come in
contact with the Russians, but he
seems to have a lot of admiration
for the Japanese soldiers.
He says that the sanitation of the
camps since the war ended has been of
the best and little camp sickness broke
out. The return of the troops is be-
ing accomplished with skill
When given a resume of late cable
news, especially that referring to the
imbrogIio and the strained
relations between England and Ger
many. the Colonel said that he had eX-
pected to hear of a more serious rup-
ture between the two countries on
arriving at Honolulu.

An American Secretary
Tells OF japanese
Ascendancy.

| w. b Straight, private secretary 10
| Hon. Edwin Morgan, ex-U. S. Minister
| to Korea. but recently appointed Unit
| ed States Minister to cuba, has an in
| teresting story to tell of recent devel-
| opments in Korea. especially with re-
gard to the domination of the Japa-
| nese in political affairs.
Mr. Straight is an energetic young
American who served as a war cor
respondent during the Japanese Rus
sian war as a representative of Reu-
ter's In the last few months he has
filed the important post of secretary
to Americas minister in the Hermit
Kingdom. Mr. Straight is a hustler.
Coming in contact with Walter Dilling-
ham about noon yesterday he ascer-
tanned that he could look over Ha-
waiian sugar plantation close to the
city, return to town and take a dip in
the surf at Waikiki, dine down town
and attend a dance or two at night at
The Young Hotel and elsewhere.
Mr.. Straight desired to know some
thing about Hawaiian sugar-making
methods before going to Cuba, and
therefore be posted on this feature of
the industry. He left on the 2:15 train
yesterday for Honolulu through the
courtesy of General Passenger Agent

. Korea, in my opinion, will be to
Japan what Egypt is to England said
r. Str-ai uf1t in nc n q question !
concerning KOrea's future.
Il look for great changes in the fu- |
ture development of Korea now that !
Marquis Ito has been assigned to the |
post of adviser to the Emperor of
Korea. During the military occupation
of Korea, Japan was too much taken |
up with her war to look closely after |
the internal affairs of Korea. The re-
suit was that Japanese coolies COM |
mitted many outrages on the Korean
people.
The appointment of Marquis Ito
means that the civil and not the mill
-ary arm of the government is to rule
n Korea. The military must take a
back seat and the industrial devel-
opment of the Hermit Kingdom can
hen be effected Korea is a vast fer
lie country, only needing a master
land to begin its development into a
ich agricultural and mining country.
Will there be another emperor
fter the present one?' That is a mat
er I can not answer I do know that
he present emperor is a master hand
t statecraft. although he knows little
f the outside world. He plays one
abinet officer against another until he
ises supreme in all questions affecting
he state. He is crafty and the Japa
csc have found that in the game with +
i'm they must play all their points to {

Joplin, Mo. Lead Miner
Showed Japs a Few
Things.

The mysterious Mr.. Mike Haley, as
his name appears on the passenger list
OF the s. s. Mongolia, has gained a rep
utatlon aboard the big liner for silence.
That, naturally. has aroused interest
in him.
The only mystery about Mike Haley
is that he halls from Missouri and does
not have TO be shown" Haley is a
lead miner from Joplin, Mo, a big
husky worker. who is used to welding
the pick, and has acquired no little
skill with that prOsaic implement.
When the Japanese war broke out
and the little brown soldiers of the
Mikado began using up lot of bullets,
the government looked about their
kingdom to see if lead was not album
dant enough to stop importing the ma
teriaI from other countries. A streak
of lead was found, but they didn't
know how to mine it properly, so Mike
Haley and another big husky from
Joplin, State of Missouri, L. S. A,
were imported. They showed the Japa-
nese how TO mine lead. That streak
was too small to make many bullets
from. but Haley got all the lead there
was in it.
AT least, this is the tale told on the
steamer about Haley.
