Any Extent
By Associated Press.

Ey Associated Press.
PHOENIX, Ariz., July -b.-There was
heavy rain here this morning, the pre-
cipitation being one and one-tenth inches.
Reports from Roosevelt last night showed
a flood of twenty-five hundred second
feet.
Water is flowing over the Roosevelt
storage dam under construction.
AS the dam on the upper face is eight
feet above datum at it's lowest end the
flood can do no damage except to delay
matters until the water recedes and fill
with water and debris the excavated por-
ton of the foundation where rocks was
not yet laid.
This can be pumped and cleaned out in
a few days.
No reports have been received today, as
the telephone wire is not working.
Rains in this valley are doing some
damage to cantaloupe shippers, as the
crop is now ripening very fast.
Other interests are greatly benefited.
During a windstorm Monday afternoon
an Italian employed at Arizona Her
cules mine near Kelvin, eighty miles east
of Phoenix, was killed by flying timber.

ARTICLES GIVE JAPAN
WIDE SCOPE IN KOREA
BY Associated Press.

By Associated Press.
SEOUL, July 25.-Iwan Ymg, premier
of Korea, acting by authority of the en-
peror, given under the imperial seal at
the palace early yesterday, and Mar
quis Ito, resident general of Japan, signed
the following agreement at midnight
at the Japanese residency:
1.-THE governments of Japan and Korea,
in view of the early attainment of pros
perity and strength in Korea and the
speedy promotion of the welfare of the
Korean people, have agreed upon and
concluded the following stipulatons:
ARTICLE 1.-The government of Korea
shall follow the direction of the resident
general in connection with the reform of
the administration
"Article 2-Korea shall not enact any
law or ordinance, or carry out any adj
ministrative measure unless 1t has the
previous approval of the resident gen.
eral.
"Article 3-The judicial affairs of Korea
shall be kept distinct from ordinary ad-
ministra tive affairs.
"Article mo appointment or dismiss
sal of Korean officials of high brade
shall be made without the consent of the
resident general.
Article 5-Korea shall appoint to Off.
cial positions such Japanese as are rec
commended by. the resident general ,-,.-ls
ARTICLE 6--Korea shall not engage any
foreigner without the consent of the resi-
| dent general.
| "Article 1.-The first clause of the agree
ment between Japan and Korea, dated
August 90 1904, is hereby abrogated."
The agreement abrogates the adviser
system, especially affecting the finance
department, under Adviser Megata, who
now becomes Korean official. 1t also
affects the judicial department of the
Korean government for which a corps
of advisers for all the provinces recently
arrived from Japan.
The Japanese plan, it is announced, is
to take control very gradually, as there
is dearth in Japan of competent and
available officials. A modern admnistra-
ton of Korean affairs would entail a
draft q twelve hundred officials and i'm
pose a deficit of three times the present
revenues.
The organization of courts of justice
will entail an immense burden, as no
legal code now exists. The urgent ne
cessity is to obtain control of the Korean
army and it is expected that General
HaSegawa will be added to the military
staff of the Korean government.
Anxiety regarding further interference
by the throne or former emperor in the
administration of the government has now
ended. Marquis Ito, at the head of the
Japanese and Korean-Japanese council,
practically is Viscount Hayashi's agent
of administration.
