GENERAL SATISFACTION
Is Felt At Toxic Concerning New Con.
vention With Corea.

Toxic, July o5.-The manner in which
the news of the convention between
japan and Corea has been generally re-
ceived is Indicative Of satisfaction. 1t Is
felt among the we'll informed that Japan
might have been more exacting in her
terms curtailing even the Corean impe-
rial authority by suggesting the rescripS
sub iect to the approval of the japanese
resident general The avoidance of such
a demand, 1t is believed, was purely out
of consideration for the prestige OF the
Corean court. The extension of the pow
err of the resident general SO that he may
appoint his nominees to responsible po-
sitions in the Corear government is .espec-
tally welcomed in Japan as one of the
surest means of preventing the adoption
of any measure hostile to Japanese or
detrimental to the interests of Corea. It
il expected that the freer hand Japan is
now able to exercise in Corea will soon
be manifested by the peaceful develop
mcnt of the peninsula and the mainten-
ance of order in the Far East.

WILL NOT INTERFERE,
Coreans Will Not Be Officially Reccg
nized At Washington.

WdSnlngtOn, July 2J.-State depart
ment officials decline to indicate what
reception will be accorded the two Co
reans, vi Yjyongoui and Prince vi Thy
ing Chi, who arc said to have sailed
yesterday from London for the United
States to make an appeal to the Prcsi-
dent in behalf of their country. These
Coreans were at The Hague conference
with credentials said to have been is
sued by authority of the recently de-
posed Emperor. They were refused adj
mission to the conference and upon APP
plication to the American delegation
they also denied recognition of their
credentials.
1t is said at the state department
that Joseph NJ. Choate did not consult
the department in taking this action
which. however, is given the depart
ment's approval. 1t is assumed here
that the CoreanS are coming to New
York to meet Mr. Hulburt. who recently
arrived in that city from Corea in pur-
suit of a vain effort to secure inter-
vention by the United States in behalf
of the Emperor, for although Mr.. HUI
burt is of American birth, he has lived
SO long in Corea and has been 50 init
mately connected with the government
of that country as to feel the deepest
interest in it's welfare.
About a year ago Mr.. Hulburt came
to the United States with the purpose
of preventing if he could. what he de-
clared to be the forcing upon Corea by
Japan of the agreement which practi-
cally made Japan the protector of that
country. At that time he based his APP
plicat ton to the United States govern
ment upon Article 1 of the treaty be-
tween the United States and Corea OF
1882 which reads in part:
"If other powers deal unjustly or OPP
pressively with either government, the
other will exert their good Offices on be-
| ing informed of the case, to bring
about an amicable arrangement, thus
] showing their friendly feeling"
Mr.. Root made an examination at the
time of the condition and decided that
| they were not such as to warrant
America in taking any active proceed
| ing under the article of the treaty
above quoted. He was strengthened in
this resolution by statements made by
the Japanese government to the effect
that the protectorate was to be a be-
| nevolent one; that conditions in Corea
had become intolerable from an inter-
| national standpoint; that life and prop.
| erty were unsafe in that country, which
| was likely to prove an easy victim tc
an unworthy ruling class.
1t can be stated that nothing has
since occurred to change the attitude
Of the state department. Having for.
| mally recognized the Japanese control
of the foreign relations of Corea. The
department could not endorse the pres
entation of an unauthorized delegation
Of Coreans at The Hague: consequently
they will not be received officially al
