Tortures by Rarborous Chinese.
....OUfl TflH SHOE SAltE...
Nr.w Yoiik, July 10. A dispatch to
the Journal and Advertiser from Tien
Tain, July 8, says : Ineffectual attempts,
have been mnde to conceal the horrible
fact that Admiral Seymour wiib com
pulled to shoot his own wounded during
tho recent disastrous retreat of the Pe
kin relief expedition.
All the wounded and prisoners who
fell into the hands of the Chinese were
friuhtfullv tortured. The bodies of two
marines who were captured by Chin
eso were recovered. The bodies had been
cut into pieces. First, the eyes had
been hocked out; then the cheeks, arms
and leca cut off until death had -ended
the Bufferings of the poor fellows.
When A it in i nil beymour. in his re
treat found himself so hard pressed that
ho wbb unablo longer to carry his
wounded with him, he asked the men
"Which you do prefer, to be left to the
mercies of tlio Chinese or bo shot bv
your own comradeaV"
As Admiral Seymour put the question,
the tears wore running down his cheeks.
"We prefer death to torture. Shoot
us now, that wo may die like men," was
lioro of thu Associated Preaa has recn'tv-1 the piteous response of the holplets
ed private information from London
that a private letter was received there
from Lady Claudu MacDouald, wife of
tlio ilritiuli ambassador at Peklu, writ
ten when the situation waa growing
threatening, saying that all the ladies of
tho legation had supplied themselves
with poison.
