ese minister say they have not been of
ficially informed that war has been de-
clared. They also claim to be ignorant
of the fact that the Japanese havo cap
tured tho King of Corea. The inline
diate cause of the declaration of war is
said to be the fact that the Japanese at
tacked Chinese transport conveylug
troops to Corea. It is reported that a
number of Chinese shipa have been
sunk by the Japanese cruisers. Tele

eventually drive the Japanese out of
Corea, even if million of people have to
be sent to the front. The first overt act
of war occurred Tuesday, when the Jap
anese fired upon the junk steamship

tered by the Cninese government to con
vey troop to Corea. The Transport
