Delcaase says: "Since I left the foreign office I have maintained silence not only aa to the insults hurled upon me, but also regarding the impertinent travesty of my intentions and acts. The French patriotism of a foreign newspaper is violently shocked over the revelation of a diplomatic secret which i3 attributed to 'me.

It Is probable that the coming conference will definitely decide the political status of Corea.

The Japanese are anxious to obtain a hold on affairs before the return of representatives of Russia, and the Impending conference, together with the absence of British and Italian ministers on a vacation, encourage the local Japanese to believe that eventually all tbe foreign legations will be withdrawn from Seoul, and that the diplomatic business of Corea will be handled altogether In Toklo.

NEW YORK. October 12. Gutzon Borglum, sculptor of the Angel of the Annunciation' and of the Angel of the Resurrection, which were Intended to have adorned the walls of the great Cathedral of St. John the Divine at Mornlngside Heights, announces that he has destroyed the two figures. Borglum did so because of a dispute which had arisen as to whether the figures should be masculine or feminine.

The sculptor had created his conceptions of the two angels in the form of women, bnt his work had been sharply criticised on that score. Borglum said that he had received a final opinion of one of the church authorities that the figures must be masculine, and added: "I went to -the cathedral yesterday, and with a chisel and a mallet smash ed the angels into bits. Although-' I have done nothing In the 'past' year into -which I have put more care and thought, and although I felt like the veriest vandal In thus Completely wrecking what I knew to be works of beauty -and power, I did so to put a stop to useless discussion and to prevent any use being made of the figures other than had been originally Intended. am absolutely astounded that any clergyman could stand In the presence of thirty or forty Images of a purely religious and spiritual character and see nothing In them but sex.
