Bomb Is Hurled
at Royal Palace
in Tokio. Japan
Korean Is Held I or i iffense
Which Created Sensation
—Three Missiles Fail
to Explode.
Ily A*.yrt<’lHt#*tl Pres*.
Tukio. Jail. 8.—The police, after
suppressing last night the Japanese
newspapers that publisher! accounts
of the unsuccessful bomb throwing at
tlie imperial palace yesterday, re
leased tlie story today with a formal
statement that a Korean had hurled
the bombs which failed to explode.
The emperor and his family arc
nut occupying the palace at present.
The Korean threw three bombs. It
was said that at the open space, out
side the palace, where the bombs were
thrown, no damage could have done
to the palace. Beyond the police
guard, feiv persons were astir in the
vicinity. The Korean was arrested
immediately.
Despite tho fact that the demonstra
tion apparently was staged by a Ko
rean, public opinion supports tlie tlie
ory that he acted as a protest against
the attempted formation of a cabinet
controlled by the house of peers. Tin
incident further embarrassed Premier
Kiyoura, who already had stirred up
the opposition of the Seiyukai, the
majority party in the diet, because of
his announced intention to make
Baron Fujlmura Ins foreign minis
ter and had aroused the ire of the
militarists because of his proposed
-appointment of General Fukuda as
minister of war. General Fukuda for
merly was commander-in-chief of
Formosa.
Bate today, now ever, the new pre
mier announced a reorganization of
the contemplated c abinet which shift
ed Baron Fujimura to the ministry
of communications and dropped b>n
I eral Fukuda entirely.
The bomb throwing, coming So
soon after the attack on the prince
regent by a young radical, who fired
on his automobile, lias caused a tie
mendous sensation. This is said to be
the first time that Japan has facedj
what s* ‘*ms to be an anti imperial'
movement.
It i.s reported that the Koreans,
who are blamed for every untoward
incident, are arranging a demonstra
tion against the regent to take place
just before his wedding, which ha*
been set for February 6.

New York, Jan. 6.—Join the world court. Join in the
work of the league of nations, with reservations. This is
the substance qf the Bok program for world peace an
nounced today.
The name of the author of the accepted plan is not
announced and will not be until the completion of the ref
erendum vote of the American people, early in February,
until that time the plan will be known simply as number
1469. It may be that the author is a man, it may be a wo
man.
The reservations proposed so nearly parallel the Lodge
I reservations, it is conceivable that Senator Lodge himself
might be the author of the Bok peace plan.
The nation-wide referendum will be conducted through
the newspapers particularly but in addition ballot boxes will
be set up in hotels, libraries, clubs, and in other places
where the largest possible number of persons can'be reach
ed. It is hoped by Mr. Bok that votes for or against the
plan will be cast by a sufficient number to obtain an ex
pression of opinion that can be considered nationally repre
sentative in its scope.
