AMERICAN WOMEN Fourteen Missionaries, Including Women and Children, Were Outraged and Slain By Chinese Devils in the Orient. If the late terrible ne from China is authentic this government will hesitate to withdraw our troops from the laml f tin- ' pL'-t:til." The news from Shanghai, under date of September 4th, is appal ii; it is frightful and calls for more than mere peace negotiation in tlie Orient . The American Government has, according to late li-pat jlies. refu-ed tu agree to withdraw itis troops from Peking lefre sati-taetinii for the t.ut rages upon and the losses o its citizens are given. ami the aunouneement is applauded ly the entire f.treL'ii colony in Shanghai. Anv other p -lirv wouhl be consitlered a vital hl)w to the pre-tii:e tf the foreigner., ami would weaken their status in China. The 1 -; I Knglish iapers fiercely dent)Uiice the proposals to evacuate Peking, and say that the ("hine-e would interpret evacuation as defeat. The masses of C hinamen now Re lieve that the Chinese arms are victorious. The Associate! Press representative learns from oilicial source- tin facts of the killing of several American women missionaries. At the re quest of the Mission Board the details were withheld 'it of regard for th- feelings of the relatives of the murdered women; but other prominent Americans, who have lontr antagonized ihe policy of -eliding .vomen to isolated inland posts, think it important that th' tacts -limiM he known. The names of the victims are withheld by request. Two - t tl women were captured while attempting to leave the stations where they we'e located, and were led about tin country naked, were iei .-astily oufagf I and finally killed by a method too revolting t be de-cr !,ti. Two other American women were coming to the coast with a party, which a number of Chinese followed and stoned. The women fell exhausted and were take, by the Chinese into the pre-enee of the local otlicial. They were p--o--trated upon the execution block and a feint was made of beheading them. One of them became hv-terical and laughed, and. think mg tier insane, the Chinese escorted her to ti e coast because of their siiper-iition Hgaid ing the insane. On the journey, however, the woman wa - repeated!; criminally assaulted by her e-eort. The other woman, all -r being -hibited naked for some days and suffering as-ault by -.-vera I num. was tortured to death by the same shameful methods as were practiced in tic other cases. Two Swedish missionary women arrived at Shanghai after similar experiences, except that their lives were spared. The foregoing 'are matters of official record. The fourteen English missionaries, including six -women and lour children, who were murdered at Chu Chau, in the province of Che Kiang. according to the story of a Spanish pries, who escaped, were killed with hayforks and ancient spears by the magistrate's bodguard, and their naked bodies were hanged from trees. These incidents make a lenient policy unpopular in Shanghai, where all the victims had friends. Placards appeared to dav in all public places exhorting foreigners to onnose a compromise with the government and attacking hi Hung ( hang. L quoting the remark to Consul- Jeneral Goodnow credited to Earl Li, that. " the foreigners in Peking, except the ministers, were of no account." o Timtrit i...m oth i:. 1'nited State Land Oftif-, Lnkc lew, Oregon. July 30, l'.M.
