RUSH MEN TO SEOUL.

WARBHIPB OP NATIONB GATHER IN CORE AN PORTS. United Statse Marines Will Guard Oar Legation—Rnsala Hnrrles Forward n Rifle Regiment—Japan Embarks n Force of 33,000 Men. A state of anarchy prevails in Corea, and United States marines from the gunboat Vicksburg were landed at Chemulpo Tuesday and sent to Seoul, the capital, to protect the American legation and American interests generally. This serious condition is result ot the Russian-Japanese crisis. Commander Marshall of the Vicksburg sent two cablegrams to the Secretary of the Navy advising him of the critical situation. The United States supply ship Zafiro la also at Chemulpo, where Russia, Japan and Great Britain have each one man oPwar; Information regarding the troubles in Corea is to the effect that the pressure which is being brought to bear on the already demoralized Corean throne and ministry by Russia and Japan, each of which is seeking to obtain an advantage that will exclude the other from obtaining a dominant influence in the unhappy country, has produced a state of poUt-

leal chaos. The soldiers and people are furious with the government aud foreigners, and are apparently on the point of creating a state of anarchy. There has been already a serious riot at Masampo, the resentment of the rioters being directed mainly against the Japanese, and marines from the Japanese warships have been landed thSre for the declared purpose of suppressing disorder only.- In some quarters it is hinted that both Russia and Japan are trying to create disturbances in Corea to give each an excuse for putting troops in that country. The most significant feature of the dispatch from Tokio is the statement that Japan is hastening final preparations for a far more extensive dispatch of troops to Corea than at first contemplated. The government has now decided to send an army of 85,000 men, organized as two divisions, to Corea. This is more than double the strength.of the expedition first contemplated, and requires a large fleet of transports and extensive arrangements, which are proceeding rapidly towards completion. The destination of this army is expected to be southern Corea, particularly Fusafa and Masampho. Tibet, the mysterious land of central Asia, is destined to pass under the control of either Russia or England. Already the two powers are engaged in military and diplomatic intrigue to gain the supremacy in I.hassa, the sealed city of the dalai lama. Russian surveyors, guarded by troops, are in northern Tibet, and are building permanent barracks. Apparently they have gone-there to stay. The English are assembling a large military expedition, which will march perhaps to I.hassa itself in the spring. The game of intrigue is ou. China, the protector of Tibet, is not only helpless but indifferent. The lamas themselves are only awakening to the wonders of the modern world. May Involve Europe. On a delicate balance, which a prejudice or an unguarded word may affect, the issue of peace or war between Russia and Japan over what is technically called the Chinese question hangs, and indirectly influenced by that issue are other world powers—France and Great Britain, and more remotely Germany and the United States. The issue, relieved from its tangle of confusing reports, is simple and tnrns on the question whether Russia will concede to Japan the same rights in the kingdom of Corea which Japan concedes te Russia in the Chinese province of Manchuria. Russia has seized the latter province and also seeks control in Corea, from which position, if once established, she would menace the very existence of Japan. The latter is willing that Russia shall control Manchuria, provided she opens its ports to the commerce of the world and allqws Japan as free a hand in dealing with Corea. To this Russia demurs. She demands the absolute Control of Manchuria for herself and she wants, in addition, nn equal share of Corea with Japan, her intention evident-* ly being to become paramount ultimately in the Hermit Kingdom. In thus opposing Russian pretensions and aggression Japan is soliciting the support of China. Should this aid be granted, France will be forced into the conflict, for in accordance with the terms of an agreement with Russia she is bound to support the latter if attacked by two powers. Similarly, England through the force of a like agreement witli Japan would be drawn into the conflict, for she is bound to support Japan if the latter be attacked by two powers. It is thus seen how serious for the peace of the world are the relations of Russia and Japan, both of which countries are straining every nerve in war preparation.

STANDS FOR PANAMA.

president defends action TAKEN ON ISTHMUS - . , ,—wr Message Font to Congreaa in Which In* aide Hlatory la Told—Maaaacrc Prevented, Lives and Property Saved and World’s commerce Kept Open. -'V Washington correspondence: President Roosevelt, in a special message to Congress Monday, reviews his action under the Panama canal net, and the relations of tlic administration with the republic of Colombia and later with the new republic of Panama. This document of the President evidently is intended as a reply to the critics of the administration and care is taken to present in the clearest r.nd strongest light all* the facts covering the history of both the Hay-Herran aud the Hay-Buuau-Varilla treaties and to show the authority of the United States for its action in every step taken, as provided by the treaty made with New Grenada in 1846. Climax of America’s Dream. At the outset, the President declares, the act of 1902 was the climax of America’s efforts for a canal on the isthmus dating back to 1858, when Secretary Cass took the position that the isthmus was the world’s highway and could not be shut against international commerce. During the intervening years, he shows, that a Panama canal, to be built by the United States, was the dream of Americans and the treaty to this effect presented to Colombia was so generous to that republic that its prompt ratification was expected. Before the treaty was submitted to Colombia Congress had decided that the United States, and no other nation, should dig the canal, and had practically decreed that the Panama route should be selected. Then, the message declares, that the delay in the negotiations that followed was due to the rejection of the treaty by the Colombian Senate. When this occurred, the President, argues, he could not under the act have opened negotiations with Nicaragua, as the Colombian Congress was still in session and might reconsider its action. This was the situation up to the end of October, when the Colombian Congress adjoumed'Ttud the people of Panama, seeing the treaty was defeated, hastened their plans for revolt and by revolution brought the republic of Panama into being on Nov. 3. Inside Hlatory of Events. At this point the message becomes of absorbing interest, for it gives the inside history of the United States’ relation with the new republic aud justifies every step taken by the naval authorities of this country on the isthmus. American army officers in touch with affairs at Panama saw the revolution coming and Lieutenant General Young gave the President such information as enabled the Navy Department to have a number of war vessels either at Colon or Panama or within easy distance of these] strategic points. When the coup camel the Boston, Nashville and Dixie were on the ground and the landing of United States marines by Commander Hubbard, Mr. Roosevelt declares, prevented the probable massacre of all Americans on shore. Tills inside history, showing what the President declares, was a practical declaration of war by Colombia against the Unitedt States, is told largely in Navy Department dispatches and in the letters of Commander Hubbard of the Nashville, which are given in full. CoL Torre#’ Threat to Kill.

Commander Hubbard says Colonel Torres, commanding the Colombian troops at Colon, on Nov. 3 threatened that unless Generals Tobnl and Amaya, held prisoners by the Panama rebels, were released by 2 p. m. on that day he, Torres, would open fire on the town of Colon and kill every United States citizen in the place. Following this threat a force of United States marines was landed, the Panama railroad sheds were turned into a fort and the Americans were given refuge and protection. When Colonel Torres saw Commander Hubbard’s prompt action he apologized and the danger was practically over, but the letter states inferentially aud the President declares explicitly that “only the coolness and gallantry of the little band of men wearing American uniforms, facing ten times their number of armed foes, bent on carrying out the atrocious threat of their Colombian commander, prevented a murderous catastrophe. By this action of American sailors, the President asserts, life and property on the isthmus were saved and the subsequent actions of American troops there are defended as being in the liue of police duty to keep traffic on the isthmus clear, in accordance with the original treaty. Failure to prevent the invasion of Panama by Colombian troops, the message says, would have meant great loss of both life and property. Everything done by the United States was in the interest not only of Colombia and Panama, but of the whole civilized world. Didn't Connive with Rebellion.

jrj In taking up a detailed defense Of the administration’s course the President replies to the publicly expressed charges that the government in Washington connived at the rebellion. On this point he says: “I think it proper to say that no one connected with the government had any part in preparing, inciting or encouraging tiie late revolution on the Isthmus Of Panama, and that save from the reports of our military and naval officers given above no oue connected with this government had any previous knowledge of the revolution, except such as was accessible to any person of ordinary intelligence who read the newspapers.” The people of Panama had their revolution well planned, aud the executive declares they carried it out all themselves. The President’s closing argument so: the administration’s coarse in Panama is that Colombia played double with the United States, that the action of the Colombian Senate in rejecting the treaty was only part of the program to wait until the concession to the French Panama company expired in October, 1994, then to confiscate the property and to hold up the United States for an exorbitant price for the new concession involving the right to cut a canal across th* Isthmus.

RECORD OP EVENTB OF THE PABT WEEK. John Terrell la Denied New TrialPalmer University at Muncla Cloned by Trustees Carelaas Boy Kilts Cousin with Shotgun. Judge John Smith, who presided in the Terrell trial, has notified the attorneys that he will overrule the motion for a

new trial. Terrell will remain in Blufftou until February, and in his cell across the street will see the crowd going to the opening of his new theater, the Terrell Grand. Terrell was convicted of the murder of his son-in-law, L. Melvin Wolf, last July. There is much sympathy for the defendant. Wolf

JOHN W. TERRELL

married Terrell’s daughter, treated her inhumanly and then refused to live with her. He, however, continued his persecutions of the young woman until one day the father, frenzied over the treatment of his daughter, snatched a shotgun and fired a load into Wolf’s thigh. The younger man, although desperately wounded, drove to a physician's office in his buggy and was placed on the operating table for the amputation of his leg. But Terrell wns not satisfied. He followed to the physician’s office, broke down the door and poured .both barrels into the form on the operating table, killing Wolf instantly. Trustee* Cloee Big* School. At a meeting of the board of trustees of Palmer University of Muncie it was decided to close the school for the present, although the fund of SIOO,OOO necessary to secure the SIOO,OOO of Francis S. Palmer.of New York has been raised. This action was taken because litigation over the will of the deceased millionaire in the New York courts will prevent the university drawing interest on the endowment and fund pledged, which money is necessary for the support of the school. No date for reopening is mentioned. Careless Hoy Kills Girl. Miss Grace Hammond, the 17-year-old daughter of Thomas Hammond, was accidentally shot and instantly killed at Noblesville by her cousin, Littleton Harvey of Indianapolis, who has been visiting the family daring the holidays. They went out from the residence with an oldfashinued gun. They had been absent from the house but a few moments when a rabbit ran around the couple. Harvey fired as he whirled around, striking Miss Hammond squarely in the breast. Cheney's Million* Many. Information from New York is to the effect that the estate of the late James Cheney of Fort Wayne was worth from $10,000,000 to $14,000,000, instead of $2,000,000 or $3,000,000, as at first estimated. The records show that in July, during the panic of 1893, he cleared nearly $3,000,000. * All Over the States Fire destroyel Tillman & Oleson’s livery stable, cremating fourteen horses and burning two adjoining residences in Porter. The loss will reach $14,000, with no insurance. A Pan Handle switch engine crashed into a Toledo, St. Louis and Western passenger train at Kokomo. Five persons were injured and two coaches wrecked. None of the injured will die. Edward Stanhope, colored, was murdered as he sat in his home in Indianapolis by his stepson, Harry Chapman, who later surrendered at the police station and said his stepfather had insulted his mother. The quarries of Perry Matthews and the Buskirk Stone Company near Bedford were sold to the Cleveland Stone Company for $600,000. George Worthington of the Cleveland Stone Company was elected president and Charles Walters of Chicago general manager. The Indiana State Teachers’ Association held its annual election in Indianapolis. W. L. Bryan, head of the State Uuiversity, was elected president; W. C. Brandenburg, chairman of the executive committee; J. B. Pearcy, secretary and treasurer, and Miss Kate Woods, recording secretary. District vice presidents were also named. Palmer University in Muncie will not Je abandoned. At the final meeting of the board of trustees for the purpose of winding up business preparatory to giving np the school, $10,500 of the $25,000 necessary to complete the endowment fund of $200,000 was subscribed by wealthy Muncie citizens, and the remainder was guaranteed. President J. L. Brodrick of Elkhart notified Receiver Bosworth that he was ready to turn over all his property, valued at about $26,000, for the benefit of bank depositors. He will not claim S6OO legal exemption, nor will anything be reserved in Mrs. Brodrick’s name, she joining him in executing the deeds. A week before Cashier Collins took similar action, turning over $12,000 in property. Recommendations for future legislation and alienee as to the individual responsibility for the Purdue wreck were the characteristics of the Indianapolis grand jury’s report The blame for the wreck was on an alleged lack of system and lack of co-operation in the railway company and to an imperfect system of train handling. The report says no good would come from the prosecution of any person connected with the railroad. It is recommended that a law be passed providing that a baggage car shall be placed between the engine and the first passenger coach, and that a dereliction of duty may lead to a charge of manslaughter. Louis Brockmier of Milroy probably was ' fatally shot while defending his mother from an attack of a demented brother, William Brockmier, aged 30 years. The deranged man, with the aid of his brother, Gustav, then made his escape. Warden James D. Reid announced in a lectors recently that stripes for convicts will be discarded at the Indiana State prison. The prisoners will be dressed in uniforms of csdet gray, adorned with brass buttons, and gold and black stripes will be'attacked annually as badges ot merit tor good behavior.
