Iwan-Yung. premier of Corea. acting by authority of the emperor, given under the Imperial seal at the palace early yesterday, and Marqula Ito. resident general of Japan, signed the following agreement at midnight t the Japaneae residency: Th. rtvernments of .Tartan and Corea., In view of the early attainment of prosperity nd KtrenKth In Corea and the apeedy pro motion of the welfare of the Corean peo ple, have agreed upon and concluded the Following stipulations: Article I The government of Corea shall follow the direction of the resident Rneral In connection with the reform of the ad ministration. Article 11-Corea shall not enact any law or ordinance or enrry out any adminis trative rnenniire unless It lina 1 1 le previous approval of the resident general. Article III Judicial affairs of Corea shall be kept distinct from ordinary administra tive affairs. Article IV No appointment or dismissal tif Cot can officials of high grade shall he made without the consent of the resident general. Article V Corea shall appoint to official positions such Japanese as are recom mended bv the resilient general. Article VI Corea shall not engage any foreigner -without the consent of the rest lent general,, . Article VII The first clause of the agree, ment between Japan and -Corea. dated August 22, 19o4. Is hereby abrogated. Makes Radical Changes. The agreement abrogates the advisor sys tem, especially affecting the finance depart ment, under Advisor Megata, who now be comes a Corean official. It also affects the judicial department of the Corean corps for a corpa of advisors for all the prov ince! recently arrived from Japan. The Japanese plan, It la announced, to take control very gradually, as there Is a derth In Japan of competent and available officials. A modern administration of Corean affairs would entail a draft of 1,200 officials and Impose a deficit of three times the present revenue. The organization of courU 6f Justice will entail an Immense burden, as no legal code now exists. The urgent necessity Is to obtain control of the Corean army, and it is expected uii vx-u- eral Hasegawa will be added to the mili tary staff of the Corean government Preserves Court's Prestige. . TOKIO, July 25. The manner In which V- ... f Ih. Mnranllnn hctsHIl JftOnrt and Corea has been generally received la Indicative of satisfaction. It Is felt among the well Informed that Japan might have been more exacting In Its terms, curtailing even the Corean Imperial authority by sug gesting the rescript subject to the approval of the Japanese resident general. Tim avoidance of nucha demand, It Is believed, was partly out of consideration for' the prestige of the Corean court. The exten sion of the power of the resident generul so that he may appoint his nominees to responsible positions In the Cerean govern ment 1a especially welcomed In Japan as one of the surest means of preventing the adoption of any measure hostile to Japan or detrimental to the Interests of Corea. It Is expected that the freer hand Japan Is now able to exercise In Corea will soon be manifested by the peaceful development of the peninsula and the maintenance of order In the far east. Anxiety regarding further Interference by the throne or former emperor In the ad ministration of the government has now ended. Marquis Ito, as the head of the Japan and Corean-Japanese council, prac tically la Viscount Hayashl'a agent of ad ministration. Corean s Appeal to Roosevelt. LONDON. July 24. Two members of the Corean delegation that was refused recog nition by The Hague peace conference. Yl TJyongout and Prince Yl TJylng Chi, left Southampton today on board the steamer Majestic for New York. The former sad: I shall travel direct to Washington, where I hope to see President Roosevelt. It : my Intention to show America that Japan made its treaty of November, 1905, without the consent of the emperor of Corea or the cabinet, and that Corea never gave up her Independence or consented to the Japanese protectorate. Departmeat of State Silent. WASHINGTON. July 25.-Followlng the Invariable rule of the State department the officials decline to make any aind of a formal statement to Indicate what re ception will be accorded to the two Coreana, Yl YJyongoul and Prince Yl TJylng Chi, who are said to have sailed yesterday from Ixmdon for the United States to appeal to President Roosevelt In behalf of their country. These Coreans, a la known, were refused admission to Tl.a Hague confer ence and, upon application to the Ameri can delegation, they were also denied recognition of their credentials, which ac tion meets the approval of the department. It Is assumed the Coreans are coming 'o New York to meet Mr. Hulbert, who re cently arrived from Corea In pursuit of a vain effort to secure Intervention by the United' States In behalf of the emperor. About a year ago Mr. Hulburt came the United States with the purpose of pre venting, if he could, what he declared to be the forcing upon Corea by Japan of the agreement which praotica'ly makes J upon the protector of that ooun'ry. At the time he based his application to ' the United States government on article 1 cf the treaty between the United States and Corea of 18SJ, which reads In part: If other powers deal unjustly or oppres sively with either government, the other Will exert their cood offices, tin ItAintr Informed of the case, to bring about an nilcajiu arrangement, thus showing their -. -vuui lemuig. Mr. Root made an examination at tha time of the conditions and decided that they were not such aa to warrant America lu taking any active participation under the article of the treaty above quoted. It oaa be stated that nothing has slnoa occurred to change the attitude of the State department. A It is formally rec ognised that the Japanese control of the foreign relations of Corea, the department naturally would not endorie the presenta tion of aa authorised delegation of Coreans at The Hague, consequently they will not be reoetved officially at Washington or at Oyster BaJk i SUMMARY OF TUE BEE Friday, July 26, lftOT. 1007 JULY 1007 SUB MOM TW( WCO t vol SAT CI 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 0 10 II 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 10 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 ' THE WIATEEX.

July 25. Amended de natured alcohol regulations have been Is sued by the commissioner of Internal rev enue, to take the place' on September 1 of the regulations heretofore Issued, and are made necessary by the act passed by the last congress. Under the new regulations, In addition to denatured warehouses on. distillery premises, central denaturing warehouses may be constructed at such points as busi ness Interests may require and alcohol may be transferred from denaturing ware- i bouses hv means of tanks or tank cars to I consumers.

In the first class are placed dis tilleries of a surveyed capacity of fifty proof gallons or loss of spirits In twenty- four hours. At such distilleries storekeeper gaugers are not regularly assigned unless the collector certifies that In' his opinion the presence of an officer at a particular distillery Is necessary. Distilleries of the second class are those that produce more than fifty gallons and less than one hundred gallons of distilled spirits dally. At distilleries of this class an officer will be regularly, assigned unless the collector shall certify that the distillery can safely operate without one. Manufacturers using specially denatured alcohol are, under the new regulations, re lieved from keeping a record of the goods In the manufacture of ' which denatured alcohol Is used. Proprietors of Industrial distilleries and manufacturers recovering alcohol In manu facturing processes, where but a small quantity of alcohol Is denatured, are not required to provide themselves with de naturing material rooms or to have the denaturants regularly tested, but may pro cure approved authorised denaturants either from central denaturing warehouses or from distilleries at which regular de naturing warehouses are established.

On this point the circular says: We have not much time between now and August fi to educate cream producers and those Interested in building up local ci "umei-'i s. but now is our chance. !f ever there was one, to get a fair basts of cream rales In Nebraska, which will enable local creameries to flourish and the larmers to get a better price.

BORAH CLOSES FOR THE STATE Inal Argument for the Prosecu tion lira ii n h the l ulled States eenntor nt the Kvenlnu Session. BOIPF.. July 26.-Final pleading fo: ilu acquittal of William D. Haywood was cou uluded this afternoon. United Slates Sen ator Borah begun the closing argument for the state at the evening session. Mr. Harrow confined himself more closel today to a review of the evidence, but throughout the thVme there continued un ceasingly and almost to the point of monot ony the strong note of abuse of Orchard and condemnation for i'lnkertons. Rxtrems hoarseness at first Interfered somewhat with the speaker's Mights of oratory, but a liberal use of lozenges afforded some re lief and by the time Mr. Darrow reached the labor troubles In Colorado he threw all lestrnlnt aside and In spite of n reminder ! from the court, he rose to even greater ' heights than yesterday In his assault upon the existing order, past and present. Ha would speak, he said, upon the subject of deportations and await the Instruction to the Jury later. Mr. Darrow this morning defended ths action of Jack Slmpklns In disappearing. He argued to the Jury that at the time of Steunenbei g's death no man accused of the murder would have been given a fair trial, lie commended Slmpklns for remaining In hiding during the present trial and brought bold accusation against the Jury he was ad dressing when he said: "Poshlbly a year hence every man who has not been hanged can get a fair trial in Boise."

He explulned the action of the Western Federation of Miners In re-electing Simp- rDIIIOr" "'I'" K mcnu'VI til llir rArcuiivu ijuii u uiwu lnUlobjthe ground that as "brave men and broth ers, we should stand by him until ne ts tried and convicted." "They ask us why Jack Slmpklns ts not hers," said Darrow, "and I will tell you. The reason he Is nut here ia that he Is 1 fr-M , tQ around the question and give any fantastic reasons. He is afraid: that's the rasj'i. Hawiey tells you that Slmpklns' f.lglic man lias had to take refuge from the mob. Remembers Bull Pen. "I don't know whether Jack Slmpklns Is Innocent or not. Is there any way I can tell and be honest with this Jury? I haven't seen him after he ran away. He was In Caldwell with Orchard and was Orchard's month before they went to Caldwell. If Jack Slmpklns went there for the purpose urcnaru nas toia ana, I preier to ining that he was merely on a trip to the south ern Idaho unions and stopped oft r.1 Cald well only for a day or two at Oi urd's solicitation whatever Slmpklns went to Caldwell to do, he went away without do ing It. He did not raise a hand against Steunenberg. "Hawiey blames us for re-electing Slmp klns to the executive board. It might have been better to have left him off. This Is a cowardly world. It might have been bel ter for the 40,000 members of the Western ! Federation of Miners to have turned their , batk. on h,m wn,n ne w but If we had dune that Hawiey would have told that the fact the federation dropped Blmp- i Kin, showed beyond a shadow of doubt that the man was guilty. But that U not the stuff the brave men of the Western Federation of Miners are made of. Till Jack Slmpklns Is convicted, every member of the federation will stand by him and will not Judge him until he has had his day In court. Men's Passions Cool. "If Slmpklns had been your brother, you men of . the Jury would have told him to go away until the passions of men had cooled; till he could appeal to an Impartial Jury, which would listen patiently to his story and render a fair and Just verdict upon him. Of course you would. "You men know that these defendants are far safer today than they were eighteen months ago. Men's passions cool, their feeling subside and they look at things more calmly and fairly. You know these defendants are having a fairer trial today than they could have had twelve months ago. It Is nutursl that they should. A year hence I venture to say that every man not banged can get a fair trial lu Boise." Mr. Darrow here went Into a lengthy diacusalon as to why the defense bad nut put Steve Adams and George A. Pettlbone on the stand. lie demanded to know why the Uite had not put K. C. Sterling, the detective of the Mine Owners' associa tion, on the stand. Adams, the attorney explained, was on trial for the murder of a man In northern Idaho. Under these circumstances, Darrow bald he would rather cut off his right arm than allow Adams to take the stand, much as he deelred tha acquittal of Haywood. Must Preserve Client's Rights. "I am not afraid of what he would say against Haywood, but I am afraid to let Adama, iriy client, turn himself wrong si Je out under the cunning cross-examination of Senator Borah and then have his testlmon) used against him when the sec ond trial for his life begins.
