D KOREANS KILLED
BY THE JAPANESE
Much Uneasiness OccasiOned by
Ruthless Slaughter of In

Marquis Ito Confers With Pre-
mier and Future Action
Will Be Considered

SEOUL, Oct. 13.-Twenty-two mem
bers of the '.Ilchinhoi." the pro-Japan-
ese organization of Korea. were killed
by the Japanese gendarmes at Cholado
few days ago. The affair has been
kept quiet, but has occasioned much
uneas siness because 1t might be con-
sidered as a ruthless slaughter OF un-
offending Koreans by the Japanese SOL
diery and calculated to confirm pre-
yious reports of unnecessary cruelty
practiced by the Japanese in Korea.
The matter has been reported by
Marquis Ito, resident general OF Korea
who is now in Tokyo.
Advices from Tokyo state that Mar
quis Ito has held conferences with
Premier KatsuTa and Vfscount Terau-
Chi. minister OF war. and 1t Is under
stood that a cabinet council will be
called to. consider the question and de-
eide upon the future action TO be

In consequences of these conferences
the report is being widely circulated
that .iie Japanese government has de-
cided TO Immediately annex Korea
The Associated Press, however. is as
sured that this is absolutely untrue
and that, in fact, no change In Japan's
general policy toward Korea has even
been considered.

TAFT FLAYS BRYAN
IN OHIO SPEECHES
Republican Candidate Refutes
Father of Injunction Charge
Made by Bourbon Leader
Cites Decisions Handed Down
While on Bench to Prove
Friendship for Labor

AKRON, o., Oct 12-Seventeen Ohio
towns heard and saw William III. Taft
today. He talked from Cincinnati to
Akron, through portion OF the state
conceded to have been Foraker
stronghold, with portion of the terri
tory democratic. The candidate was
listened to by large crowds. The i'm
portant speeches of the day We're at
GAINESVILLE, Cambridge and Akron, where
in each instance the candidate left the
train to meet his audience. In his
GAINESVILLE speech Taft went after both
Bryan. and Gompers.
Bryan goes around the country say
ing am the father of injunctions,' de-
clared Taft. 1T is not true. l did not
invent injunctions, or injunctions In
labor disputes. But it is quite natural
that Bryan should make the mistake.
because in a letter he wrote to the dis
trict attorney of Belmont, o.. he said he
has not read my decisions"
Continuing Taft gave great emphasis
to what he regarded as the effect of the
decisions he had rendered on the bench.
Il laid down lthe law and / laid down
the principles he said, upon which
the labor organizations in this country
have since built up their prosperity and
their usefulness, and instead of saying
that am an enemy they recognize that
l am one of the greatest benefactors
labor has had. l decided a case against
the brotherhood of engineers. and the
brotherhood condemned me. In four
years they got into court in st. Louis,
and they had TO cite my case to induce
the court to withdraw the injunction
there, because had laid down the prin-
ciples upon which they could organize,
could have their officers, could raise
their funds, could go and conduct
strikes under advice of the officers, and
In that case they induced, on the
authority of my decision, the judge to
withdraw his injunction, and they went
ahead and won the strike. That same
thing occurred in a court in Cincinnati
and in decision rendered in Chicago.
Ii you will examine the case you will
find that instead of being an oppressor
of labor am its benefactor'
