One of these has Just been read by a correspondent of the Associated Press. It was written by an American and recites the sensational events from March 1 when the revolt began. until March 15. when the report was started on its wa to the American minister at.

The report summarizes these features of the insurrection as follows The revolution begin Saturday afternoon. March I in many large titles in Korea and spread like wildfire to the country. It was wen planned the plotters representing all classes. A proclamation of in dependence signed by three men. had previously been issued.

Twenty-nine of these men gathered In Seul on February 28 and after the meeting where the proclamation was read met at a dinner party. Later they telephoned to the police that they were ready to go to jail. where- upon the authorities took them to prison. In Seul and Pyeng Yang and oth- er cities where foreigners resided the military abstained from firing on the crowds but in the rural dis- tricts violence of the most terrible description has been practiced. Un- restricting crowds have been fired upon scores of persons killed and hundreds wounded.

I have personally witnessed or heard directly from witnesses of so many terrible scenes that I can hardly bear to write them. Five theological seminary students men who had lust arrived in Pyeng Yang that morning while quietly resting in their rooms were taken to the police station and al though protesting their innocence of plotting against the government.

were given twenty-nine lashes applied at full strength. Two girls were dragged by the hall' from a house near the mission hospital tied to a telegraph post by their hair horribly beaten by deputized firemen and then led off to Jail. One man 65 years old was caught by the soldiers and beaten and kicked until he could not walk. Then he was dragged off to jail. Before he had gone.

four hundred ards another squad of soldiers repeated the performance and at the jail. where the punishment was continued the victim collapsed and was sent home in a rlckaha. Ran Weapons lat. Bystanders While the crowds were parading the streets the police and soldiers ran their weapons deliberately into bystanders because they' happened to be in the way. In front of the prefects office one defenseless.

Korean was run down and killed by two firemen armed with pikes. The corpse was dragged along the ground and a by the slayers. Old men women and children have been indiscriminately abused beaten. cut down with swords struck by firemen armed with pikes. officially flogged at the police station pierced by bayonets and never a man has resisted the military.

The passive revolt has been true to its name here. Because we foreigners have seen all we are not only persona non. grata to the Japanese but in real danger of our lives. It is reported that hired thugs are wandering through the city at night to waylay whom they may. The foreigners may be attacked and injured or killed by these men.

It they are. the government will promptly xJis- avow the acts but the objectionable individuals will. nevertheless be out of the way. It la becoming increasingly questionable whether we foreigners can remain here during the continuance of the trouble. OF RECENT By J.

G. Ellison. Millen. Ga. April 16 Special All Is quiet again along the Ogeechee After the very exciting oc currences of Sunday things have taken on the same quiet that has a long while characterized this community.

In the excitement that accompanies violent outbreaks things have been exaggerated and. the facts have been distorted. The facts frankly stated are bad enough. and to correct exaggerations that have been given every dally newspaper in the state the facts are here stated and should be accepted by the public. At Carswell Grove negro church Sunday there was a.

very large congregation C. Brown was um- moned. according to tire statement of Willie Williams. but which statement is now disbelieved by many' as the result of a' plot to kill Brown and Deputy Sheriff Marbach on account of their activities in running down gamblers and illicit distillers and ijjfcnd tigers. all of which was canned on among the ne- groes of that section as well as oth- er parts of the county.

It Is but fair to state that the sentiment against Brown and Mr. Marbach was not confined to the negroes. These men had been as active in running down crime among the whites as among the negroes. and the records will show that the white lawbreakers suffered at the hands of the officers quite as much as the negroes. The recent term of city court disclosed this beyond Question.

They did not exhibit any race preference in enforcing the. law. Whether Brown- and Marbach were called there or whether Brown went on his own initiative and carried Steph- ens with him may always remain a question but one thing is beyond question he was acompanied to the church by Officer Stephens. who was also killed in the encounter which ensued. Edraond Scott was arrested for carrying a pistol and when the off cers started off with him Joe Ruffin and his boys interfered and the shooting began with the result that the two officers and Ep1ond Scott were killed.

Stephens was not killed tmmedtately and his brains were beaten out by two of the Ruffin negroes and Will Williams Louis Ruttln was wounded and spirited away by Willie Willlame and refused to. disclose. the hiding place of Lewis Ruffin. Why Baffin Wsa Shot. On account of this and the statement made by him of an existing plot he was taken from the officers and shot.

The two Ruffin negroes who were shot were known to have taken' part in the killing of Stephens but they never fell into the hands of the officers at all. Joe Rurrln. who instigated the whole matter and who surrendered to G. Perkins and Sheriff Johnson was carried to Augusta where he is in jail. Lewis Ruffin is still at large.

The total. dead are as follows W. C. Brown county policeman T. P.

Stephens night marshal. white and four negroes. namely H. Ruffin and his brother tdmond Scott and Willie Williams. The fifth negro who was reported dead le not dead.

He is slightly wounded and possibly would not have been touched but for the suspicion he created in the manner he acted and ran away. It was thought he was Killed but he is now alive and on the plantation of Inman Belt in Burke county. The total casualties are six in stead of seven. There is deep regret among the people of the county that the church or the lodges in this city have been destroyed. Widow Blames Scott.

One. citizen reports that he has had conversations with' some of the negroes and they told him tn. ne groes brought all the p-ouble on themselves. The widow of ldmond Scott sa husband has no one to blame' but himself. 1 tried to get him not to carry hi pistol to the church.

and he would do It. He brought it on himself. It is simply fair to state that. It Joe Rurfln had not been gotten out of the way he would not have lived two hours and that- If Lewis Ruffian Is caught by any except officers he will not likely go to trial. but beyond that there is nothing more to anticipate in the way of trouble.

The public should accept this statement of facts and rest assured that this community will continue to uphold the law sometimes too slow In Its operations to prevent violence. There will be no up on the search for violators of the law and their punishment but the innocent will have nothing to tear. TEMPORARY' ROUTE OF FLA. SHORT LINE WILL BE SELECTED' Columbus Ga.
