FAMOUS
PEACE TREATIES
. TREATY OF coNsTANTINoPLE 1e41
When the Present Egypt Was Evolved.
By H. IRVING I N
1919, by the McClure Newspaper Syndic

The British possession Of Egypt is
something into which England "just
naturally drifted." The force of cir
cumstances was stronger than treaties
and diplomacy, and after the occupa-
ton Of the country subsequent to the
Arab Bey incident in 1882, England
found herself in the position Of the
mar who held the bear by both paws
around a tree-it was more dangerous
to let 60 than to hold on. Yet up to
the recent proclamation Of a British
p~rotectorate over the land Of the Nile
end the setting up Of n sultan indie
pendent Of Turkey following the sid
Ing of the Khedive abbas with the
Germans, Egypt remained a part Of
the Turkish empire. a vassal state
paying al annual tribute Of 50, 900
and governed nominally by a heredi-
tary vassal prince. It was governed
under the treaty of 1841, which the
powers forced upon the sublime porte
and its victorious rebel governor Of
Egypt, Mehemet Ali. By this treaty
the western powers obtained their first
foothold in the land of the Pharaohs.
Mehemet Ali was a Turkish officer
who first went to Egypt in 1890 as
commander Of the forces. He did so
well in restoring order there that In
1905 the sultan appointed him gov
ernor. But Ali found his government
constantly threatened by the famous
Mamelukes, a cavalry corps of the
Egyptian army consisting Of the de-
s%cendants Of those Mingrelian, Turk
tsh and other slaves sold by Genhiz
Khan to the Egyptian sultan in the
thirteenth century who, uniting In re-
volt in 1881, made themselves masters
Of the country. The Turkish govern
ment overthrow the Mameluke govern
ment in 1917 and Egypt became a
Turkish province. But the military
caste Of the Mamelukes was continued
as a portion of the Egyptian army
until Ali's time.
Massacre of the MameIukes.
In 1911, seeing that it was a ques.
ton Of survival between the Name
lukes and himself, Ali settled the mat.
ter by a massacre of the Name
lukes. The citadel of. Cairo was the
scene of the principal slaughter; the
Mamelukes were a%nnihilated. Now
absolute master of Egypt, Mehemet
Ali threw off his Turkish allegiance
and conquered Syria in 1872. In
1889 he defeated the Turks in so many
engagements that it seemed as If his
banners were certain to wave in the
mosque Of st. Sophia. The powers
took alarm. That old idea which for
so many centuries has prevented the

TREATY OF sHIMoNosEKl, 1895


The western nations woke up to the
fact that a great power had appeared
in the East when in 1894 Japan de-
clared war on the vast empire OF
China and speedily brought it to its
knees. The realization that a naval
and military power of the first class
had come into being on the western
shores of the Pacific was not 81 pleas
ant one and caused Il great fluttering
among the "chancelleries" Of Europe
ond was not viewed without concern
in the United States.
It was because Of her war with
China and her subsequent var with
Russia that Japan occupies the posi-
ton she does today among the nations.
The treaty Of Shimonoseki and the
treaty of Portsmouth placed her
among the leading nations Of the
world. The war between China and
Japan arose over the affairs Of Korea.
In the olden days Korea had paid
tribute to Japan and after the aboli-
ton of the Shogunate in 1868 and the
coming of the Mikado into his own.
repeated demands were made upon
the Koreans for a continuation Of this
tribute. Chinese and Japanese in
trigued at the Korean court for the
predominating influence in the land of
the morning calm and transformed it
into a land which knew no calm.
Japan Alleged Infraction.
In June Of 1894 a Chinese army was
sent into Korea for the ostensible pur-
pose of putting down a rebellion which
threatened the Korean king. Japan
declared this to be an infraction of
the treaty between herself and China
made in 1885, and dispatched a Japan
csc army which occupied the Korean
capital and its port Of Chemulpo, and
fortified the route connecting the two
cities. Somehow the rebellion disap-
peared, but the king Of Korea found
a Chinese army and a Japanese fac
ing each other in hostile guise upon
his territory and asked them to with
draw-which they refused to do. The
king appealed to the United States.
Mr.. Gresham, secretary of state, ask
ed China and japan please to get out
Of Korea. China said she was per-
fectly willing to get out If Japan
would. Japan said she would not get
out until Korea had reformed her in
ternal affairs.
It was evident that Japan meant
war. and on July 8, 1894. England
proposed that the United States join
with her In an Intervention to prevent
the war. The United States refused

On July 10, 1882, the British ad-
miral demanded the cessation Of hos

some Of the forts into British hands
within "a hours, or he said he would
open fire. Cablegrams flew back and

which lay beneath the boys feet, and
was opened at a particularly lurid
scene, which the police think the boy
was trying to re-enact.
The title of the book was "The
Young Wild West Holding the Hill;
or the Fight for the Cave Of Gold" In
the picture, which had evidently
struck the boys fancy, a boy dressed
in a scouts costume was being low
cred into an open grave by a band of
cowboys. The boy In the picture was
trussed up with ropes and was being
buried alive.
Beneath the picture was printed:
"'Let him go, boys!' shouted the leader
of the band. If the end Of the plank
sticks out a little, it will mark the
spot where the champion death shot
was buried alive. Down with him ="
The accepted theory of the cause Of
the hanging is that young Shubert was
thrilled by the picture and by similar
scenes he had read about or seen in
the movies, and was trying to stage a
"~make-believe" hanging. 1t is thought
that after hanging" himself he in
tended to take the rope off his neck
and tie it around his arms and legs
in the same way "tle champion death
shot" was tied in the picture. and then
imagine himself being buried alive. If
he had carried out his plan, the grave
Of the picture would probably have
been represented by the bathtub over
which the boy hanged himself.

trial." and would join no other nation.
even In that interference.
On July 81 Japan declared war upon
the Celestial empire. The military
and naval supremacy of Japan at once
became startllngly apparent. A Jap
anese army swept through Korea, and
advancing down the Liaotuhg PENN
sula, took Port Arthur. The Chinese
were driven out Of southern Man
churia. The Japanese feet destroyed
the Chinese fleet and captured Wei
hai-wei. At the beginning Of the war
the Chinese emperor had commanded
his generals: go drive me these pig
mics into the sea-" but now a Jap
anese army was ready to advance on
Picking. Everywhere China was utter
ly defeated.
Negotiated Four Weeks.
China thereupon authorized the
American minister Mt Pekin to trans
NIT direct to Japan a proposal for
peace. Japan agreed to receive Ii
Flung Chang IS peace commissioner.
He landed at Shimonoseki on March
10, 1895, where he vas met by the
Marquis Ito, and after four weeks of
negotiation the treaty was signed ON
April II. The complete independence
of Korea was recognized; the LAO
tung peninsula, Formosa and the Pes
cadores islands were coded to Japan.
and China agreed to pay a war in

cial trade privilege to the victors.
Korea had been occupied and organ
lied by Japan during the war and.
though its complete independence had
been guaranteed by the treaty, jap
anese influence was now supreme
there.
England was disturbed, Germany
%displeased and Russia angry and
alarmed at the treaty of Shimonoseki.
A great power had suddenly appeared
to threaten Russian possessions and
block her aspiration on the Pacific
coast. The GEAR ~threateningly de-
manded the r%etrocession to China oe
the Liaotung peninsula. Germany
and France backed up the demand Of
Russia. Had Russia been alone to be
considered, Japan might have thrown
down the gauntlet then as she did
later. But in the face Of threats
from three powers, she dared not re-
fuse. and gave up the best fruits Of
the war-which Russia stepped In and
grabbed for herself.

NORTH DAKOTA RED CROSS
ACTIVE IN HOME SERVICE

The home service sections of the
North Dakota chapters of the Ameri-
can Red Cross assisted more than 2,225G
families Of soldiers and sailors in the
month OF May, according to reports re-
ceived from one-half of the home serv-
ice sections in the state.
This branch Of the Red Cross has
been specially helpful in recent months
assisting in the readjustments taking
place in soldiers and sailors families
upon the return of the men from
abroad. Information has been given in
regard to the civil relief act, CONVEX
sion of insurance and all regulations
affecting returned service men.
Where necessary chapters have also
extended money relief to the families,
drawing upon the funds collected To-
cally. In May $1,1O5.49 was thus ex-
pended in North Dakota.
Home service was organized to as
sist the families of soldiers and sailors
when it vas found there was need to
combat anxiety, to safeguard health, to
give legal protection, to promote edu-
cation. to assist in employment, to give
encouragement to disabled soldiers on
their return, and to assist them and
their families during the period of
their retraining for civilian life. The
continuation of home ser vice and the
extension of its responsibilities are in
cluded in the peace time program of
the Red Cross.
