CHINESE TROOPS DEFEATED.
A Victory for the Rebels in Manchurla-Ths
Grnvest Anxiety at Pekin.

LONDON. Nov. 20.-Advices received here
from Shanghai are to the effect that tho rebel
forces in Manchuria have defeated the Impe-
rial troops sent to suppress tho rising In that
region. The Imperial forces numbered 1000
men. and their defeat causes the Government
the gravest anxiety. Reenforcements to tho
number Of G.OO0 men have been despatched
from Tien Tsin to oppose tho rebels. who are
marching on Pekin. II the Imperial troops are
again dcfeatef the position Of Pekin and Tien
Tsin will be extremely critical.
Tho rebels have captured the important
walled city Of Leao-Yang in Manchuria,
and compelled tho inhabitants to fur
hish them with abundant supplies. 1t
is not reported that any serious out
rnges were committed ut Leao-Yang. and
this goes to confirm tho prevalent impression
that the Mongolian insurgents are not n mere
Iy predatory band. but have definite design
in their undertaking. Tho possession OF Leao
Yang gives the rebels the control OF IN cxten-
sive trade. both inland and with tho Gulf OF
Leao-Tong. Troops are being hurried from
Pckin to oppose the rebel advance.
Horrible details have been received Of the
massacre Of Belgian missionaries and native
Christians at Tayou and Sanchl by the Chi
nose. Tho Christians were attacked without
warning. and had no chance to escape. The
rioters first seized the nuns. ail OF whom were
subjected to indignties before being re-
leved by DEATH A Belgian priest was Drained
at q blow. The rioters then. seized his
body. and tore out tho tongue and heart. and
treated even moro horribly. They were
not permitted to dlo ~ swift death.
Tho miscreants seized tho Mretehed con
mission. and kuhiected them to fearful
fortunes. Their children were seized. and some
hacked to pieces and others roasted aliva, be-
fore tho eyes OF their agonized parents. Then
the parents were taken. and after suffering va
rious toItures such MS still lived were slaugh-
vOred the rioters or to have been overcome with
