The native press prints a sensational

Iy Outnumbered by
the Natives.

SEOUL Korea, July 2O.-Korea Is in
the hands OF a practical dictator-Gen-
eral Hazegawa, commander Of the Japa-
nese troops in the Hermit Kingdom.
Though there has been no formal
declaration Of martial law, the military
are in absolute control. SO greatly are
the japanese outnumbered, however.
that II Is a problem whether they will
be able to hold the people in subsection
until re-enforcements can arrive.
Fears are entertained Of attacks, not
alone on the Japanese, but on all for
eigners in the country. The eonsulates
in Seoul are under heavy guard. Troops
are patrolling the streets, and all gath
erings are broken up as soon as they
are discovered. Despite these precau-
lions. there is no doubt that many secret
meetings are being held TO plan for a
general uprising

Progress Of the South.

Wilmington, Del, Evening Journal.
Those who fancy that the South
is still sleeping SHOULD read fine
booklet issued by an enterprising
firm of Charlotte, N. c., telling Of
the industrial growth Of that city.
The book is very well prepared and
it presents a pretty picture Of the
North Carolina city. The booklet
declares that the population of Char
jotte has increased from $500 in 1850
to 41,5o0 in 1897, and judging from
the photograph of city, the popula-
ton must be somewhat near these
figures. Tie development of the
South as a cotton manufacturing
country is revealed in the booklet.
There arc 10 Of these mills in Char
lotte alone, and in the State there
are 245 factories, with 2,O23,O4S
spindles and 42,775 looms. In South
Carolina there are III mills, with 2
1,41O spindles and 65,SS3 looms.
The city has many handsome struc-
lures and a building boom is in pro-
gress. A new hotel costing $250,OOC
was recently finished, the money be-
ing raised by the people Of the city.
The finest opera house, it is asserted,
in the South, is located in Charlotte,
and one Of the realty companies has
a twelve-story building. "A new Y.

Favorable Features.
On the other hand number Of IA
gorable features marked the day. The
Trust Company Of America and the
Lincoln Trust Company, the two or
ganizations which have suffered most
from runs, have been slowly paying
out to their depositors and closed
with all demands having been met
In the case of the Trust Company Of
America the run has we'll nigh spent
its force as the great bulk of the de-
positors have been paid off. At the
close of business there were "a good
many in line at the Lincoln Trust
Company but also there was a mark
ed reduction in the number Of anx-
ious depositors.
The most favorable incident of
the day was that the stock exchange
was provided with funds ample to
meet its immediate necessities by a
money pool headed by ]. Pierpont
Morgan, which sent about s15.O00,-
900 to the exchange during the after
noon. AS all Of the loans made hold
over until Monday, the stock ez-
change situation will not be factor

be called upon to solve. A very ell
couraging feature of the afternoon IS
developments was signed statement

pointed State superintendent of

cial institutions Of New York have
shown extraordinary power Of resist

While it is true that several minor

said about them--frst, that the
amount involved was not SO greet as

for the withdrawal Of deposits, ano
this will prevent the withdrawal of
money which would otherwise be put
in safety deposit boxes. The savings
banks, if they continued to make

There was snot, the least doubt but
that the institutions were in anything
