SAN FRANCISCO , Nov. 21. The steamer
Rio de Janeiro arrl\ed today from Yokohama
nnd Hong Kong. No confirmation could bo
obtained of the stories brought to Victoria
by the "learner I'mpress of China , Unit th
queen of Corea had been burned In oil.
The Japan Mall ( newspaper ) , under the date
of November 6 , says "Before Ihe coup
d'elot took place the queen of Corea was
secretly maturing a political scheme , Invok
ing the murder of not less than 120 persons
of the opposite faction. A list of Ihe In-
lended victims had been drawn up. After
the wholesale nia" acre of her opponents It
v. as her purpo'e tti reject the Japanese friendly
assistance and Imoko that ot Russia The
discovery of this scheme led the Tal-Wom-
Kun and his followers to take a sudden and
decisive step to prevent the Intended revolu
tion being carried out.
SELECTING A NEW WIFH.
The Corean minister of the household has
Issued a proclamation announcing the In
tended selection of a new consorl for the
king , and , according to a time-honored cus
tom , the Issue ot tills proclamation has the
effect of prohibiting for the time being the
marriage of all girls between 13 nnd 17 ,
thrdughoul Ihe counlry. Thirty or forly girls
are lo be nominated and from among them
will be first selected three and on one of
the three the final choice will fall.
Addlllonal advices were as follows : Ar-
resls sllil conlimie among Ihose suspeclod of
being Implicated In the murder of the Corean
queen. These arrests comprise Vl otint
Mlura , the late Japanese minister to thai
courl , and all members of Die legation , lo-
G"ther with other Japanese officials In Seoul ,
besides a number of private Individuals. The
preliminary Investlgallons have been com
menced In Hiroshima , where Ihe accused are
Imprisoned. Count Inouje Is still in
Corea , but Is expected back shortly and the
opinion Is expressed that the- Japanese are
about to abandon their attempt to control the
homo and foreign policy of that country.
Arrangements are in progress for the with
drawal of the Japanese troops. Iji fact , In
the face of Russia's opposition , Japan has no
option but to clear out.
His Imperial highness , Kltashlrakawano-
Mlya , who wab in command of the Imperial
guards In Formosa , died on the 28th of
October.
Oriental papers do not seem to be settled
on the question of a possible conflict be
tween Russia and Cngland. There is some
pretly serious war lalk by some , while oilier *
scout Ihe Idea ot trouble. However , a. letler
from a corresponded In Valdlvoslock reports
thai the Russian military authorllles have
conslrucled no less than twelve forts there
since August last. These are , so far , im
perfect nnd only suitable for purpos.es of
temporary defense , but ns a large number of
Chinese are now employed In completing the
work In two or three years time the forts
will become strong , permanent defense"
At the present time there are fifteen vessels
of war belonging lo Russia on the Pacific
slnllon , all of which have been palnled gray ,
and are In readiness for acllon. The num
ber of troops on shore has been largely In
creased during the past year , anJ barracks
