C. , June 12. ( Toklo , Japan , May 31. Per Steamer Empress of China ) No event of striking Interest has occurred In the past fortnight and none Is expected till after the reunion of the Japanese ministry In Toklo. The people nourish In sullen Bllenco their discontent with the methods by which peace has been secured , and , as a whole , refuse to participate In any display of gratification at the close of the war. In many quarters doubts are expressed as to the durability ot the settlement with Russia , Germany and France. The newspapers are not permitted to speak freely , but a majority of those who escaped suspension hint at the probability that fresh entanglements are presently to bo disclosed. Government securities continue depressed and war bonds are selling at lower figures than before peace was declared. The best Informa tion that can be gathered from official sources IB distinctly reassuring up to this present time. The foreign office affirms that no ground for apprehension exists with regard to either of the recently hostile European powers. The diplomatic representatives of those powers contradict all reports that further trouble Is anticipated It Is bellevd to be true that Russia goes on strengthening the defenses at Vladlvostock. But Japan evidently does not look upon this as a warn ing , for she has disbanded her reserves and Is preparing to restore her arm ) divisions to their peace footing. Public feeling is as un friendly to the administration as If the empire's Interests had btn sacrificed In every particular The acquisition of Formosa Is taken as a matter of course , whllo the abandonment of Manchuria Is bewailed as \ grlevoi'sly as If the deareat hopes of the nation had been centered wholly upon that single strip of terrltor ) The government of Corea has fallen Into such demoralization that no pretense of re form is now maintained The ministers give no heed to public business , but scheme only to enrich themselves by negotiation with Russia for the sale of a port on the eastern coast , others by offering counter proposals to European powers , which are opposed to Russian aggrandizement , still others conniv ing at returning the exiles who were driven from the countr ) when China's Influence was dethroned Count Imiouyo has not yet fou-id a way to bring order out of the Corean chaos and It Is reported that , sick and weary of the struggle , he Is about to leave the country The Coreans will assume that Japan has decided to abandon her task of regenerating the wretched kingdom and nothing can pre vent the queen from reviving the corrupt system of former ) ears She will fc" supreme , for Taln-Won-Kun , who formerly held her In check , has apparently gone Into decreptl- tude since his grandson was banished for plotting murder and treason. The old man's latest exploit was a cunningly arranged flight from his palace , with a view to Joining the expatriated criminal , but 100 policemen dtove htm back The Japanese legation 1 ; now quite disregarded , owing to the im pression that the Japanese position In Coren will hereafter depend on Russian dictation , but the Japanese government denies any de parture from the policy of preserving Coreo against self-destiuctlon and piloting her to ward selfgoeminent. . 1 xi MAY iiiui : MXT ron : .
