No confirmation could be obtained of the stories brought to Victoria by the steamer Empress of China, that the queen of Corea had been burned in oil. The Japan Mail, under date of November 5, says: "Before the coup d'etat took place, the queen of Corea was secretly maturing a political scheme involving the murder of no less than 120 persons of the opposite faction. After a wholesale massacre of her opponents, it was her purpose to reject Japan's friendly assistance and invoke that of Russia. "The discovery of this scheme, though the most terrible part of it does not seem to have been at first known, led Tai Won Kun and his followers to take the sudden and decisive step to prevent the intended revolution from 'being carried out. Arrests Still continue amongst those suspected of being implicated in the murder of the Corean queen.

These arrests comprise Viscount Miura, late Japanese envoy to that court, and all members of the legation, together with other Japanese officers in Seoul, besides a num'ber of private individuals. "Preliminary investigations have! been commenced in Hiroshima, where the accused are imprisoned." A FRIEND QUOTES WHITNEY. The Ex-Sacretary Says He Will Not Be a Candidate.

It Proved to Be Very Gostly for Him, The Court Deals With a Prisoner Whose Manifestations of Grief Were Not Sincere. I Charles Parker, the negro who was found guilty Wednesday of aggravated assault, was up for sentence yesterday in the district court. Parker's crime, consisted of making himself very obnoxious to iyoung girls on the street some months ago. He finally feel Initio the clutches of the law for offering violence to a married lady upon the street. When called upon by lthe judge to state 'his reasons, if he had any; why sentence should not be pronounced, the audacious wretch stood up and with forced tears glistening in his eyes he attempted to play upon the sympathies of his honor, saying that the newspapers were responsible for Ms arrest and furthermore that a prejudice existed against him on account at his color The judge remarked that he rather favored the negroes, having Ibeen up in their midst.

While the court was talking and when Parker thought he was not observed toy the judge he turned his head and winked at some close acquaintances, his pretended grief giving way to a broad grin as much as ito say he had won his point. He made a big mistake, for both the wink and grin were observed by Judge Baker, who broke off talking and remarked, "I will attend to that grin in a minute." In passing sentence the judge remarked that his grinning would cost him one year and three months more than he originally intended giving the prisoner, and sentenced him to three years and three months at Yuma. The sentence did not affect the prisoner, who grinned harder than ever when being conducted from the court room. When in prison he will have an opportunity to reflect that to grin at an inopportune time is something very costly. The sentence of J.

LWenier, the Frenchman accused of forgery, was further postponed. Menier's ease is peculiar. He insists upon pleading guilty, though to his attorneys, Street Frazier, and to everyone else, he staunchly avers his innocence. The charge against him is that he passed a check for $94, the name of H. S.

Merrill being signed thereto. Menier's explanation is that he had been in the city but a few days, last September, when he looked too deeply into the bottom of the wine cup. In his' drunken round he picked up a companion who represented himself as miner and who gave him the forged check as security for small loans aggregating $22. The companion has since disappeared. The next morning Menier bought a suit of clothes at Goldberg Brothers' clothing store, giv ing the check in payment and receiving the balance in cash.

Shortly after he was arrested, having in the meanwhile made no attempt to escape. He stated he knew his would nst be believed by any jury, unsupported as it is by any other evidence, and he 'therefore preferred the lighter sentence to be gained by a plea of guilty. Juan Antone, an Indian, ichorgsd with stealing cattle, was acquitted by the jury. The jury in the case of Cok-on-e-Nol-Age found him guilty of grand larceny and he will be sentenced today. Toribio Miranda was tried on a.

charge of assault with 1 deadly weapon committed last month at Mesa upon the person of Benito Almanero during a drunken row. The jury returned aSter a minute's consultation with a verdict of guilty.
