1T STARTS A FIGHT
Disarmament of the Korean
Army Meets Resistance.
Forty Natives Killed or Wounded
i'm First Encounter.
CALL ON UNCLE SAM.
Emissaries eff the DepOsed En-
perOr Have Arrived.
Will Ask America to Come to
KOrea's Assistance.

Washington Aug. IA dispatch
received at the state department from
Consul Genera! Thomas Sammons at
Seoul. Korea, says that forty Koreans

To Ask Help of America.
New York. Aug. Hoping to in
duce the American government to in
tervene and prevent Japan from OBJ
tanning further domination in Korea,
Prince Tjyong Oui vi and vi Sang Sui,
two of Korea'S delegates to The Hague,
who were denied admission to the
peace tribunal, arrived here today on
the steamer Majestic.
Il and my companions" said Prince
vi, who speaks English, represented
the Korean government by the au-
thority of the emperor but Japan used
all her cunning to show that we ap-
peared at The Hague without author
ity. We blame our treatment in Hol-
land entirely to the Japanese. Korea
will never agree to Japanese domina-
ton and while there have been no dis
orders yet, unless something is done
there will be a serious uprising.
I'VE knew before we left Korea tina t
Japan would force the emperor to abdi-
cate. Japan seeks to drive us from our
land and destroy our kingdom. Korea
has always been a peaceful nation. We
have no guns, arms or powder and we
expect the American people in their fair
ness and justice to interfere. The United
States does not realize what Japan's
policy is in the far east and what por
tends for the American people. The
Japanese adopted a policy that in the
end will give them complete control over
commerce and industry in the far east.
Japan is bitter against the United States
and against Great Britain. You IN
America do not realize this but If the
United States does not watch Japan
closely she will force the Americans ana
English out of the far east.
II shall try to see President Roose-
Welt. but when, I cannot say. 1t is my
purpose to visit several of the large
cities of the country to make my plea
for my people. then I shall return to
Korea where death awaits me- The
Japanese have passed an edtct OF pun
ishment against me and am officially
dead man The Japanese may kill me
but they cannot kill the cause for which
/ am fighting. The only way Japan can
dominate in Korea is to kill all m peo-
pie"
Prince vi is a dapper young man and
dresses in European fashion. Mr.. Sui
said that his fellow delegate to The
Hague. vi Tjomi. was so overcome when
he learned that Korea would not De per-
mitted to appear before The Hague trl-
bunal that he died of a broken heart.

In spite of the aggressive stand Ia
ken by the authorities. the disorders re-
commenced early today.
The strike is serious; it would appear
to be the beginning of big labor war
and the workmen's unions are prepar-
ed for a long struggle. The immediate
cause of the outbreak yesterday was
the course pursued by the police during
the past eight days in making a large
number of arrests in attempts to break
up the unions. The principal socialist
leaders have been thrown into jail. Tne
police have been so energetic In tnelr
measures against the unions that tney
have united the social democrats, the
Polish socialists and the nationahsts,
parties who up to the present ulne
have been waging a merciless war.
A general strike has been declared
and the social democrats and the Polish
socialists have called cut $4,000 men.
The nationalists have been forced 10
join the committee of the amalgamated
unions. The committees has ordered
have been told to close, and the power
house of the electric traction system
has been shut down The committee Is
enforcing its orders with armed men,
end several shopkeepers who refused TO
ehut up have been shot.
Street Cars Wrecked.
Yesterday bands of laborers were
sent out in the city to wreck street
cars. This they did in a number of
cases. and later they used the cars as
barricades from which to stone the
police During the calling out of the
strikers one factory foreman and two
shop keepers were killed and two Ia
borers were mortally wounded.
The disorders grew as the day wore
on. At o'clock in the afternoon the
military forces were modified, but
there was no engagement with the
this hour the opposing forces came
together in the center of the town.
The shooting was serious and pro-
longed The workmen fired several
hundred shots from automatic pistols
and did not disperse until they had
been charged by the cavalry At
least thirty men were Killed or
wounded. Ambulances at once clear
ed the streets of the dead bodies. |
Among the dead is a German subject
The town was patrolled constantly |
last night by detachments of Cos
sacks and dragons.
This morning the troops started the |
electric cars again, but the passengers
on board were attacked by gangs of
workmen and a number of them were |
wounded. The strikers today began |
to attempt to force a cessation OF |
work.

split today in the membership of the
board of police commissioners arising
