NEW YORK, March 23
Dispatches from Peking state that an American missionary from Korea declares that for the "past 10 years the Koreans Jiave been brutally* treated. Women and children have been beaten. The Japanese authorities charged American missionaries with teaching Koreans ideas of liberty and individual rights, and Japanese soldiers beat two Ameri-i-an women missionaries. The American Consul at Seoul was arrested by the Japanese, and later was releasecL Dispatches from Tokyo say that Independence demonstrations in Korea continue.— (A. and N.Z. Cable.)
