A special Jl.patch to the Kclalr from St. Petersburg says that an exchange of communications has oeeurre! botwem th Russian government and the Japacea Minister at St. Petersburg: with reference to the recent disorders at Seoul, the capital of Corea. It added that the Japanese Minister assured the Russian government that the culprits would b punished. But Russia Is said to have replied that she would now be forced in consequence of the Tlots to take the a tops considered necessary to preserve order and to make .the Corean government Independent of foreign interference. The dispatch continues; "As to the course proposed. Russia will do her duty, whatever Is entailed, without stopping to Inquire whether other powers like It or do not like it. t-'he will never abandon Corea, and will protect her against all encroachments." Why Jap Soldier Are In tor en. WASHINGTON. Oct. 11 Minister Kurlno. of Japan, consented . to-day to be, interviewed as to the recent stirring events In Coreu, the disappearance of the Queen and reported significance of the trouble in showing Japan's purpose to es tablish a protectorate over . the hermit kingdom. "Japan has no purpose whatever of establishing a protectorate over Corea." said the Minister.- "This can be utated with absolute . posltlvcness. The treaty of Shlmonosekl, signed by Japan a.nd Cftlna, recognizes the-complete independence of Corea. and Japan has fully complied with the letter and spirit of the that . treaty. The Japanese soldiers now in Corea are there for. police purposes only. They do not constitute an army of occupation or conquest, and no significance can be attach to their presence, except that Japan is desirous of protecting nor citizens in Corea. The Japanese are so numerous in Corea that our government sought the privilege by treaty of maintaining an armed force there a a means of protection. A treaty to this effect -was made so that the Japanese eoldlera are In Cocca. under a treaty. This tfp was a positive necessity on the part of Japan. The Japanese residents and merchant In Corea could not be protected In their trade or persons by the weak and Inadequate poUco ani military authorities of Corea. The local force is antiquated, and the ofllclals have no comprehension of the protection due to foreign Interests. If, therefore, the Japanese were to be protected at all. it had to be by their own soldiers, and to this Corea ascent ed." "The need of this protection has been fhown In many ways of late. In one instance the local officials prohibited the export of corn, rice or beans. This caused great loss to the Japanese merchants engaged in that trade. The prohibition was directly contrary Uo the treaty with Japan, jrhlch states that there should be no prohibition except in case of short cropn in Corea and It was put into effect when there were bountiful crops. Hut the Coreans, navtnf no regard for treaties, stopped the jraln erport. Later they agreed to pay 14,0O Indemnity for the damage to Japanese merchants, but the treasury was unable to pay. In another instance they frthiMted the export of a root, which 8 a large article of commerce. "The prohibitions wo.ild not be so Irritating if they were not accompanied with clear evidences of corruption. The officials are ready to do without the prohibitions for a cash consideration, and not getting thl., the restriction is imposed, causing the attendant loss to Japanese merchants. Under such- circumstance the need of aelf-protection is evident and the policy of Japan In securing order, honest' and fair dealing la of as much Interest and benefit to the rent of the world as it is to Japan. Our people have beci hopeful that Coreu would be placed on th road to civilization, that ner commerce could be opened with the. rest of the world and Japan's entire Interest in Corea is to help along this civilizing process. "concerning tne recent uprising," continued the Minister, "efforta are being made to show that Japan inspired It. and was responsible for the death of the Queei, If she really is dead. But there is no evidence of this. On the contrary, fct would eem inexplicable that the Japanese officials at Tokio men of nagacity and intelligence would . countenance, much less encourage such a bloody procedure. They would have known its fatal consequences. In fact, all the evidence shows that the Jananefae troooa were vix to ntftrv order and restore peace. It has been assarted a an evidence of Japanese animosity to the Queen that Prince Pak, of Corea. who fled from that country because of his differences with the Queen, and came to the United States, was on close terms of intimacy with me here in Washington. This Is false. I never have seen Prince Pak since be came here. I have had no communication, direct . or Indirect, w th him. "There appears to be much mJsapprchenalon." aald the Minister in conclusion, "as to the Corea, rulers being favoraible to Japan. It Is true that the Queen was unfavorable to the modern reforms urged by Japan, bat the Tal Won Kun. who has succeeded her. Is an old man of seventy years with antiquated, ideas opposed to reforms. His ascendency, therefore, is no rain to Japan, showing that there could nave been no reason for the disposition of the Queen as far as Japan is concerned. The Klnsr Is the one who ha been regarded aa friendly to Japan, but he has been a silent and weak power. More than all els," added the Minister. "I wish to emphasize the fact that Japan has no purpose to establish a protectorate over Corea nor has aha other ambitious objects In that country." - Recalled, from Seoul. YOKOHAMA. Oct. 13. The .

Their Majesties arrived at the site shortly before noon and were received by the Gov-emor-gtneral of Alsace-Lorraine, Prince Hohenlohe Langenburg, who delivered an address of welcome. After patriotic songs sung by the iftrasburg Choral Society and a stirring address from General Von Mischke. the monument was unveiled, and was afterward inspected bv all the members of the Imperial party.

He said: "Esteemed Comrades in Arms of My Reverend Father and Gentlemen At the behest of the ex-Empress I have to thank you in behalf of her Majesty, and likewise of my house, that you have not allowed yourselves to fall in helping us to erect this memorial or In being present to-day. It Is with heart ft t emotion that that noble lady, my mother, I. present with us to-day, remembering that it was vouchsafed to her, leaning on the arm of her husband, to hear from his own lips the account of his victory. V express to her Majesty, therefore, very special thanks that she has graciously deigned to be present here whre this noble statue of my father is now erected. What we have learned from him could not be more beautifully or more feelingly portrayed. What we feel, however. In the presence of this statue and in remembering the twenty-fifth anniversary of the great time of the rebirth of our fatherland on this spot, where rint the south and north German commingled to form the cement which helped to build our German empire this, I say, deeply stirs all our hearts, and we younger ones swear by all, and in the presence of the monument of that victorious warrior, our never-to-be-forgotten Emperor, to preserve what he won for us. to guard the crown lie forged, and to protect the Reichsland against all dangers, and to keep it German, so help us, God. and our German sword. Now, however, let us all Join in a cheer for my august mother, whose presence here has fittingly crowned the day's proceedings. Hurrah!" At the close of the Emperor's speech the royal party deposited wreaths on the monument. The Emperor and Empress and the ex-Empress Frederick went to Strasberg this evening, and were received with great ceri'inony by the military and municipal authorities. They were warmly cheered by a larrre concourse of people. At mllnight Strasburg. the capital of the Reichland. whose sympathies were once largely French, presented a bright spectacle in honor of their German .Majesties. All of the public buildings in town, and many private dwellings, were brilliantly Illuminated with myriads of candles and with many fanciful designs. The fine old Gothic minster was lighted with thousands of twinkling lights, tracing its graceful outlines against the night with remarkable effect. A fine display of fire works was continue! during the evening. The cheering was hearty and continuous when Emperor William, accompardeJ by Empress Augusta and ex-Empress Frederick, towards the conclusion of of the tatoo, appeared on the balcony of the palace. The streets of the city were thronged with a gala-day crowd until a late hour of the night. The statue unveiled at Woerth Is an equestrian figure in a general's campaign uniform, one arm pointing to Froschweiler. The horse's feet are planted firmly among rocks, at the foot of which two German warriors, representing North and South Germany, clasp hands over a shield bearing the arms of the provinces. Above hovers the imperial eagle. Emperor Frederick's mausoleum at Totsdam was" beautifully decorated to-day. Emperor William and the ex-Empress Frederick sent splendid wreaths. A laurel wreath with black streamers was attached to the half-mast standard at the ex-Em-press's palace. AX IXSriREO ARTICLE.

Cffort of the Porte to Hoodwink the Supporter of latum. CONSTANTINOPLE. Oct. R-At a meeting of the embassadors of . the powers, which has Just ben held. It was decided to Fend a communication to the Armenian patriarch in order to solicit hl3 assistance fn the efforts being made by the representatives of the foreign governments interested to put a stop to the agitation going on among the Armenians. The Turkish newspapers have published an inspired article contradicting the prevailing Idea that special privileges will be In future conceded to the Armenians. Tho article continues: "As, however, the existing laws and regulations require modifications, certain reforms, by which all, without distinction of race or rei'gion, will be benefited, will be introduced tentatively in ceftaln provinces of Anatolia." The article is regarded as intended to prepare the Mussulmans for the promulgation of the reforms forced on the Turkish government by the powers and to prevent the impression spreading that they are for the exclusive benefit of the Armenians or a result of the Armenian agitation and the intervention of the powers. Sir Philip Currie. the British embassador, has receive! from an Armenian source a warning that the young Turkey party "will probably Induce some Armenian miscreant to attempt his life in order to disgrace the Armenian people. The Rome correspondent of the Chronicle says that he has been assured in official circles that England intends to land troops in some part of the Turkish territory if the Armenian reforms are not honorably executed. . t 1 Turks Are Parlous. . LONDON, Oct. 15. The Constantinople correspondent of the Standard says: "The reforms are not, properly . speaking, the granting of fresh privileges so much as recapitulating and providing for the wellbeing of Moslems as well as Christians. The Armenians consider that the concessions are Illusory, and Tu'kish officials admit that they were wrung from the Por e under violent pressure. The Turks are mostly furious, and many competent observers do not hesitate to predict a crisis leading to revolt and bloodshed, compared with which the Armenian troubles would be insignificant. I am convinced, however, that the Sultan would employ his troops to repress any Moslem movement with the utmost severity." . Danravrn Returns to Knglnnd. RVDE, Isle of Wight.

Convicted of Killing the .Mate of the . Dark Ilesper on the Illifh SeasStory of nn Unsuccessful 31utluy. SAN FRANCISCO. Oct. 18.-Thomas St; Clair and Hans Hansen, the murderers of Maurice Fitzgerald, mate of the bark Hesper, were hanged In the loft of the mill at the San Quentiu prison at 2:04 o'clock this morning. The execution was witnessed only by United States Marshal Baldwin, four deputies and twelve directors. Newspaper men and others were excluded, in accordance with a wish said to have been , expressed by Hansen. Death in each case ensued speedily, the necks of both men being broken by the fall. Hansen and St. Clair spent the morning with Fathers Lagan and Gallagher. Hansen seemed reconciled to his fate, and assisted the deputies to adjust the straps on his ankles as he stood on the trap. Just before the black cap was drawn over his head he smiled as he looked at the deputies around him, and said: "Well. good-bye, boys, I am thankful to you all." St. Clair left a long rambling statement for the press, in which he recited the incidents in connection with the murder, and arguing, on the showing of the circumstances he could have not been guilty of the murder of Fitzgerald. He said that his trial was unfair from the fact that Interested persons had caused the publication of articles in the newspapers which prejudiced the Jurors agalnpt him. The crime for which St. Clair and Hansen were hanged was murder in the high peas. They killed mate Fitzgerald, of the bark Helper, and threw his body overboard. The story of the murder and tho mutiny on the Hesper reads like an oldtime pirate story 'nstead of a tale of modern crime. The bark Helper sailed from Newcastle. New South Wales, on the 22d of December, 1&2. bound for Honolulu: Thomas St. Clair. Hans Hansen. Herman Sparf and others were members f the crew. St. Clair planned a mutiny; and others Joined in the conspiracy, t They plannnl that they should at night seize, the vessel, after murdering its officers, and sail to Chile and engage In coastwise trade. It was decided to kill all the officers, beginning with Morris Fitzgerald, the second mate, who was not popular. The other officers were to follow him to DavyJones's locker by the same route. The night of Jan. 13, 1894. was selected far the disposal of the officers. The starboard watch, which was Fitzgerald's, stood from t to 12 at night. The watch was otherwise made up of St. Clair, Hans Hansen and Herman Sparf. There were others in the conspiracy, but the case against them was less strong than against the three named and they were used as witnesses by the government. The murder of Fitzgerald was accomplished according to programme. It was a black nicht and there was a very heavy wind. Fitzgerald wa3 attacked before midnight. He was inveigled by St. Clair to the after part of the vessel and there was set on bv three of the assassins. One wielded a bludgeon and another' a hatchet. Those who were still awake on the vessel at that hour, and one of them was the wife of the captain, heard a shriek. The shriek followed a blow struck Fitzgerald with a hatchet and it was the last sound he uttered. A few moments later his corpse was thrown overboard. Then the murderers took a broom and tried to wash the tell-tale blood stains from the deck, but they remained, and though the hatchet with which the deed was done was washed a San Francisco chemist found the stains of the second mate's blood on it afterwards. At midnight on the night of the murder when the port watch went on deck the second mate was not to be found. Some of the sailors who had been on watch said they had last seen him climbing Into the rigging. The blood stains on the deck were soon discovered, the murder was suspected and the remaining officers went below and armed themselves. The obstacle thus offered to the consummation of the plot intimidated the mutineers and they submitted to arrest. Three were selected as ringleaders and brought to this city in irons. St. Clair was tried as the leader and actual murderer of Fitzgerald and Sparf and Hansen, the other ringleaders, were Jointly tried. Convictions were secured in both cases. An appeal to the. United States Supreme Court resulted in the verdict as to St. Clair being sustained. In the case, of Sparf and Hansen there was a point as to the trial court's po'r in je. termining the facts In the case and the lower court was reversal as to Sparf and sustained as to Hanson in the longest opinion that ever has been given by the Supreme Court in a criminal case. Sparf secured a new trial and was the first accused man to take the stand. He admitted the conspiracy and the murder, but said he had been IntlmMated into assisting the others in killing Ftzgerald. He failed to show wiry he had not given information or the murder to the captain when there was no longer any danger from his fellow-conspirators, but the Jury acquitted him. Though there had been a final decision in St. Clair's case long before the others were disposed of he was thrice respited the last time until the 18th of thH month. Hansen's countrymen made strong efforts to save him. but In vain. Five People .Shot nt a Cuke Walk. MOUNT HOLLY. N. J.. Oct. 18.

Oct. 18. Corbett was brought into the ell)' this morning by the sheriff and arraigned before a Justice of the peace on the charge' of conspiring to commit assault and battery "on the person of one Bob Fitzsimmons by agreeing to engage in a prize' fight with. him. The affidavit of the prosecuting attorney stated that there was danger ,pf such a meeting resulting Jn the defendant doing Mr.' Fitzsimmons great bodily harm. Corbett was released on a "petition .to the Judge of the chancery court, . .whom . he asked a writ of habeas corpus cn.the grounds that he was not contemplating the violation of any of the laws in the State of-Arkansas, hence he was being illegally -restrained of his liberty by the sheriff. The justice thereupon passed Mr. Corbett over to the Chancery Court. Taking of testimony began at 1:15, at which timo Joe'Vendig was placed on the stand for the purpose of proving that the defendant had; entered Into an agreement to meet Fitzsimmons here, on Oct. 31 In a limited contest with soft gloves and at any time the referee thought the contest brutal he had .power to call it off. Before tho testimony of Vendlg had been taken attorney Martin, for the defense, asked that Corbett be excused as he had to take the 3 o'clock, train for Little Rock. The judge consented," but had the sheriff send a deputy alorff to see that-Corbett got back in time for the reconvening of court to-morrow at ISO p. m. Corbett, in conversation with a reporter this morning, expressed himself in terms of much indignation at Fltzstmmons's sulking in Texas while he la going through the ordeal alone. Corbett said: "I am disgusted with Fitzsimmons's conduct. If he "were here and subjected to the same annoyance and delays a3 I am-1 would not care so much. But while ;tho time that I ought to be putting in training is being taken up in this way Fitzsimmons is loafing around Corpus Christi. putting in time, when he is not playing cards, in congratulating himself that I am getting tho worst of it I do not have to do this. I have nothing to gain in besting Fltzslmmon's. l am champion and he is & middle weight with aspiration to my posltjon. lie even does not have his forfeit moneup and has nothing to lose at all. He.ires he won't be here until the day before the fight and.it begins to look as if he does not intend to come at all." Corbett is.

There are many rumors around tl.c State Capitol tonisht to tho effect, that something startling will develop tormorrow. Just what this something is no one outside, of a select few seem .'to' have any idea, and they only look .irave and remain silent when questioned. They are, however, emphatic In declaring that no fight will occur, and from whafjs, to be learned it is believed that Governor Clarke has a trump card up -his sleeve which will be sprung to-morrow. Talk of the Governor calling out the militia, declaring martial law, overruling Judge Leathermaft and things of that kind are plentiful; but find little credence since, by thc''iConstltution of the State, the Governor cannot declare martial law, except by 'consent of the General Assembly, and he has all along declared that no Kpeeial -session will be convened. If the matter be left with, the courts to settle it would seem to be a certainty that Corbett and Fitzsimmons will meet on Oct. 31, provided Fitzsimmons will agree to th new articles. t Preparations for the affair are being pushed right along 1 at the Springs.

"Mexican consul In this city, expressed himself freely on" the subiect. He was seen. again to-day. Senor Diaz was authorized to ay that President Diaz was opposed to allowing prize fighting In Mexico, and the reporter was directed to say that t lie proposed fight would not come off on Mexican soll. The consul was shown a dispatch from Li Paso, which stated that the business, men had raised $13,000 to nay for the Mexican concession. Senor Diaz was very emphitlc In his denial that the Mexican government would make any conceptions at any price, "We do not peed money," he said,, "and if we did we

should not sell Mexican dignity for any amount of it. There is no concession for sale at El Paso, and I am officially authorized to state that President Diaz will not permit the fight to take place on Mexican soil."

"How about my attached money? Oh, that will be fixed all right long before the fight. Martin Julian is now looking after that, and I know he can arrange matters all right." DEAD HEAT IN 1:55 1-5

The revels of the Festival of Mountain and Plain reached their climax to-day. The weather continued fine, and the morning trains brought about ten thousand more visitors to the city to witness the closing scenes of the carnival. The crowds of joyous people, Jostling one another in the streets, furnished the best possible evidence of returning prosperity to Colorado. At noon to-day all formalities were cast aside and high carnival reigned supreme. General masking on the streets, after the order of the famous festivals of Vienna and Rome, was permitted, and many striking costumes were worn by the fun-loving and fun-making folk who were determined to see; the city's first annual festival a success. The events of the forenoon were a firemen's parade, miners' rockdrillingcontest and a band contest, in which ten bands, including the Indian boy band, from Teller Institute, and the Goodland Military Band, from Goodland, Kan., participated. This afternoon there were military drills and Indian games and races at the City Park witnessed by more than fifty thousand spectators. The most attractive and artistic feature of the festival was a parade of the Slaves of the Silver Serpent this evening. It was a brilliant affair, rivaling the Mardi Gras displays of New Orleans and the march of the Veiled Prophet in St. Louis. It was followed by a reception by the slaves at the Brown Palace Hotel and 'a grand ball ended the festivities. One of the most interesting features of the festival have been the reunions of the pioneers. To-day a reception was given to the two oldest living scouts and Indian fighters In this country 4ohn Albert and Jim Baker. Albert is ninety-three years old and has lived in Colorado sixty-eight years. Baker came to Colorado in 1838. Snlclde'of a Defaulter. PITTSBURG, Oct. 18. J. C.
