Censorship on News.
VICTORIA, B. C. Aug. 19. Advices
from Seo'il give fuller details of the
mutiny following the disbandment of the
Corean army by the Japanese and the
fighting at Seoul in which many lives were
lost. The Seoul Press says that on the
morning of August 1, following the issu
ance of the rescript disbanding the army,
a Japanese .officer, accompanied by two
cavalrymen approached the main gate of
the barracks of the Shlwl regiment to
notify that force to be present at the
parade ground for the disbandnjent. The
Corean troops had been ordered to as
semble near the east gate and gratuities
offered to each man who turned in hiB
arms. . As the Japanese entered the bar
racks they were fired upon by the Corean
troops assembled in the barrack yard. The
Japanese officer at once turned his
horse's head and galloped off followed by
his men. The officers of the artillery
posted at the west gate alarmed by the
firing sent scouts to Investigate and these
.were fired upon from the gate of the
Shlwl regimental barracks.
Two companies of the Third Battalion
of the Fifty-first Regiment, under Major
Sakai, were ordered to attack the bar
racks, the mutinous Corean troops having
meanwhile broken open the magazines of
the barracks and armed themselves with
rifles and supplies of ammunition. The
Japanese mounted machine guns on the
' city wall at the tower of the Great South
Gate and from there began a bombard
ment of the barracks.
Troops Face Heavy Fire.
Meanwhile the Japanese infantry ad
vanced by way of an alley to the rear
Sate of the barracks and tried to rush
:he gate. The Coreans fought desperately,
but the gate was blown up with gun
cotton and in half an hour It was carried.
There was much fighting in the gateway,
which Captain Koga carried with a
bayonet charge. . Meanwhile the Corean
troops stationed themselves at windows of
the barracks and poured a "heavy fire on
the Japanese as they came Into the yard.
Reinforcements were sent for by the Jap
anese commander and two companies -were
added to his force. Aided by these, .the
Japanese troops pressed toward the build
ing. The Coreans held them back with
a heavy fire, and Captain Kajlwara, a
company commander, sub - Lieutenant
Fujli. and several other officers and many
men were killed.
The arrival of engineers from the Jap
anese garrison with hand grenades ended
the struggle. The engineers threw hand
grenades at the barrack windows and
these frightened the Corean soldiers into
flight, the mutineers abandoning rifles,
coats and trousers as they ran.
Vanquished Coreans Sob Loudly.
Eyewitnesses of the disbandment of the
ui iimipn, which luun inttco uu tiic
parade ground, say the scene was tragic.
A large force of Japanese troops was as
sembled and the Coreans on arrival were
ordered to hand over their shoulder
badges, belts and overcoats, which they
did. The Coreans cried loudly while they
were disarmed. While the company com
manders were reading the rescript order
ing the disbandment the sound of sobbing
was so loud that it drowned the officer's
voice.
Only a portion of the Corean forces as
sembled for disbandment. The rest took
flight, or held out In various parts of the
city. Detachments of Japanese troops
searched the city and all the exits were
guarded and wholesale arrests were made.
Rifles were found hidden In various
places, some being taken from coffins.
Scouts were sent galloping over .the
various roads and as little detachments
of fugitive Corean troops were reported
small squads of cavalry were sent to
bring them in. Japanese troops entered
the house of Mr. Collsran, an American
and searched it, nine Coreans being found.
Harassing the Japanese.
Many attacks upon small parties of
Japanese are reported from various parts
of Corea, one of the most tragic being
the struggle of a small party of nine
civil officials and five policemen at
Chongju. The Japanese took refuge in a
hill temple, which they were holding
against 250 Coreans, when a Japanese ex
peditionary force of two infantry com
panies and 14 engineers, with four ma
chine guns, arrived on August 6., One of
the Japanese policemen had been captured
and murdered.
The Japanese forces in Corea were being
considerably increased when the Empress
of India left Japan. A close censorship
on newspaper reports and press dis
patches obtained, and martial law was
in force throughout Corea.

SEASIDE JAM EXPLAINED
Commissioner Aitchison Says Crowd
Not Handled Properly.
SALEM. , Or.. Aug. ' 19. (Special.) In
reporting to R. K Stowell, of M. Seller &
Co., of Portland, regarding his complaint
of crowded and delayed condition of train
service between Portland and Seaside on
the A. & C. railroad. Commissioner Aitch-
Isori, of the Railroad Commission, recites
his experiences of yesterday in making a
personal trip of Inspection over the line
and returning on No. 23, in substance, so
far as figures are concerned as published
In The Oregonian this morning.
He ascribes the crowded condition upon
the first section, as he found it, with five
coaches, a seating capacity of 298. and a
total number of 590 passengers on board,
more to the desire of all of the passen
gers to get off on the first section "at
all cost" rather than to any serious fault
of the company when there was plenty
of room on the second section. He says
there was ample room on the first sec
tion between Astoria an Rainier but
he did not see the second section between
those points. The service will be watched
again next Sunday by some member or
representative . of the Commission. In
closing his letter to Mr. Stowell, Mr.
Aitchison says:
"The only criticism that could be raised
as to the service yesterday was - that,
by the installation of an expensive sys
tem of yards and gates at Seaside the
crowd could be better handled. Perhaps
by giving more public and forcible notice
by the use of megaphone, signs and the
like, enough of the passengers could have
been diverted from the first to the sec
ond section to have made travel on the
first section more comfortable between
Seaside and Astoria. Be this as it may,
the condition was due. to a large ex
tent at least, to the desire of the passen
gers to take the first section instead of
the second at all cost.
"We take it that your complaint was
intended to better future service rather
than to result in an Investigation of past
service. We will therefore use our best
efforts to induce the railroad officials to
exercise every possible effort to handle
Seaside passengers on the train with com
fort and without unnecessary delay, and
will, therefore, have the service watched
next Sunday as well."
GOOD PLAN, SAYS CANNON
SPEAKER COMMENDS SENDING
OF FLEET TO PACIFIC.
Trlp Will Develop Efficiency Which
Ships Will Be in Need of in
Time of War.
WASHINGTON. Aug. 19. Speaker , Jo
seph G. Cannon, when here last week en
route to New York, oeclared himself em
phatically In favor of President Roose
velt's plan to send the battleship fleet to
the Pacific. Although he has had no com
munication with the President regarding
this naval movement, the Speaker re
gards it as a natural development of
naval policy and unhesitatingly com
mends It.
"Our navy will be of no benefit to
us." said "Uncle Joe,", "unless the men
know how to handle the ships, how to
work the guns. Efficiency Is more im
portant than any other consideration,
and l. lean be gained only through prac
...ee. Therefore it is an excellent thing
that the ships would be sent by way of
Cape Horn to the Pacific Coast as a prac
tice maneuver. If it strengthens our
diplomacy to have the battleships in the
Pacific well and good, but whether it
does or not the benefits of a long cruise
are apparent.
"So far as expense is concerned. It will
cost no more than to send them to the
West Indies or to European waters. If
the fleet Is in good condition It will make
the trip satisfactorily. If it is not .we
will learn Its deficiencies, and they cer
tainly should be known If they exist."
"What will Congress do next session
for the Navy?" Mr. Cannon was asked.
"It will provide for adequate manning
of the force we have and for improve
ment, was the answer. x
"What new authorizations will there
be?"
"As to that I cannot say, but I feel
there is a strong sentiment throughout
the country in favor of maintaining an
efficient navy, and, as said before, effi
ciency is more important than size. I
would rather have one modern battle
ship like the Dreadnaught or larger than
ten battleships built ten years ago."
When his opinion was asked as to the
present -epresslon of stocks, attributed
by prominent financiers to the adminis
tration's anti-corporation policy. Speaker
Cannon said:
"1 assume from what I see In the news
papers that the i-resident is obeying his
oath of office by enforcing the laws.
What effect it Is having upon the bulls
and bears In Wall street I do not know,
but I do know that through the Middle
West the people are so busy preparing
to harvest a vast corn crop, a great
wheat crop and- the best timothy crop
we -have had in a decade, tnat If you try
politics with them they say "Let's see,
when is election?' and then when you
say, "Next year,' they say, Good Lord!
There Is lots of time to talk politics.
Come out and help me pitch hay.'
"The banks throughout the Middle
West have more money than they have
ever had before. They do not feel any
concern.
"So far as the fine Judge Landls im
posed on the Standard Oil Company is
concerned, I do not feel obliged to com
ment, for I assume that the Standard Oil
Company has the money and the lawyers
to appeal on a writ of error If they think
there has been error, and that the Su
preme Court will decide . the "question
properly.
"If the Standard Oil Company were
some poor man who could not help him
self I might feel concerned. For Instance,
if it was a case like this man Powers in
Kentucky, for whose cause I nave in a
humble way contributed a dollar or two,
I might feel that I should do something!
He Is without property, charged with
murder, tried, convicted and the sen
tence reversed. That is a case In which
the citizen might feel some concern, for
we all have some sympathy for the under
dog."
