BLOODY WORK IN CHINA.
Later Details of the Riots and Il

SAN FRANCISCO. Jan. 22.-Advices
from the scene of the riots in north
China say that there 10 no question
that they are ant-christian rather
than antl-Iorslgu or autl-dynastlc.
Tue scene of the trouble 10 not
In Mongolia proper, but IN the province
of Chilli, just outside the great wall.

stealing OF his wife. and the other Is as

lsts. The robber band operated about Je-
no., while the co ciety began riots near
Pskou. They attacked all the native
CHRISTIANS, burning the mission build-
Iugss November Il they massacred
the Christians twenty-five miles from
Pakou. One Christian escaped. This
native gave the horrible details of the
movement, saying the children were
roasted alive. The courier sent to warn
bishop RutIgs was caught, murdered
and mutiiated. The governor Of
Anhui presents q long report to the
throne, giving an account Of the
suppression OF the rebellion IN his
province and Kiansu. lie declares
that one leader of the Kaloa
Hui society had eigh. thousand
men enrolled and had collected
large sums. His final purpose was to
overthrow the government. Several
discharged soldiers also became leaders
OF the branches Of this society. Twelve
Of these men have been decapitated
and five others imprisoned. Native
papers give accounts OF the victo-
ries OF the imperial troops over the
bandits in Mongolia, but all the prin-
cipal details were sent by cable.
A Tientsin correspondent furnishes de.
tails OF the narrow escape of the Rev.
j. Parker of London from Chao-

reused by the shouts Of the rioters, and
with 3 small bundle Of clothes es-
capped. A cold wind was blowing, and
several Chinese women and children,
who left their clothing behind in the
excitement, were frozen to death.

Ruthless Slaughter of Twelve Hundred
Sioux Indians in Colorado.

wAsHiNGroN, Jan. 22.-An interest
ing case is pending IN the court OF
claims. II is brought by Colonel John
NJ. Chivington of Denver, Colo, against
the United States and the Sioux nation
OF Indians for depredations committed
in April, 1867. in Wyoming Territory.
IN which the claimant alleges that the
Indians ftole 1872 head of oxen and
twenty-three head of horses, of the
value of So $50, for which he asks
judgment against the government and
Indiana.
This is one Of the old historic cases,
and is known rs the "Chivington" or
sand Creek" massacre, In which 1t
WAS reported that some twelve hun
dred Indians of all ages and sexes
were killed, and their scalps taken and
bodies mutilated by white men. Col.
Chivington, prior TO his location in
Denver, was Methodist preacher, and
the presiding elder for that
church in the South Platte coun.
try of Nebraska for several years.
The massacre is agreed by all TO have
been one of the most foul and bastard
ly on record. 1t appears that the In
dians, at the request of Governor
b'ouSt thCi kO"citOi Va WIG SCttAtoay
of Colorado, had come into Fort Lyon
for protection and had been located on
Sand Creek, about forty miles distant,
and were under charge of the United
States officers and agents; that they
were friendly. had NOmmitted no dep
relations and had Neen there for
months subject to government control,
with their families, wives and children;
that the United States flag tloatcd over
their camp, and white flag also, by
direction of the United States
officers, as an additional pre-
caution. The evidence taken in
these Investigations shows that the
Indians were nearly defenseless and
unarmed, as the United States officers
had required them TO give up their
guns before they went into camp; that
the attack was made on them without
warning, the women and children as
we'll as the men killed and scalped,
their ears and noses cut OFF, children
at their mothers breasts shot and their
bodies mutilated in the most horrible
ma auuer.
