down the church.
Luckily, all the mission aries escaped.
but Chinese convert, Ksing lap. was
overtaken, beaten to death and his
body thrown into the river Several
Christian families in the vicinity were
subjected to indignities and robbed.
Some soldiers then appeared on the
scene and effected the arrest of two
rioters.
The next point Of attack was the
Roman Catholic church. Those inside
the church fred at the mob and held
them at bay for some time. AT this
juncture squad came and dispersed
the mob, thus saving the building
from sharing the same fate as the
American church.
On June 2 the church at Sam Kong,
village of Tsan Shing, was sacked,
and girl aged 10, belonging to native
preachers family, was carried away.
Fortunately, In the middle Of the night.
the Christian brothers were able to
secretly open the door Of the house
where the girl has been taken, and she
was conveyed safely to Canton.
simultaneously with this disturbance
an anti missionary demonstration took
place at Liu Pou. Under cover Of
darkness a native preacher, with his
family, had to seek safety In flight.
The church, however, was left un-
molested, as it was owned by man Of
the powerful Wan family, who pro-

JAPS REPULSED.
In Recent Battle at Wei Hai-Wei
They are Obliged to Retire with
Heavy Losses.

LONDON, Aug 12-The Central News
correspondent in Shanghai says that
the japanese made a second attempt to
disperss the Chinese feet at Wei-Hei-
Wei, on the Chinese coast, to gain ac.
cesS to the port.
After au obstinate fight they were
compelled to retire. No details Of the
losses OF Chinese or Japanese in this or
Thursdoys's naval encounter can be OBJ.
tained ut this time.
Last night japanese feet attacked
Port Arthur. the station OF China's Pei
Wang squadron. The Japanese bonn
barded the town heavily, but were un-
able to gain any advantage. Event
ually they were forced to draw off.
Their losses have not been ascertained
in Shanghai.
The Japanese are reported to have
lost heavily. though it is not known
that they have lost any of their ships
There is no news to indicate which
fleet has the advantage.

RETURN OF THs JuNKsTsERs.
Upjust Attacks Upon Newspaper Rs-
porter Occasion Much Sympathy.
Special to the Scranton Tribune.

SpecldI TO the Scranton Tribune
PITTsToN, Pa. Aug. 12.-ConsidOr-
able comment has been oecasioned by
the return Of the junketesrs. They
strenuously deny the impeachment of
their fidelity Of duty made by the Troy
newspaper which has figured so largely
in this episode; but In the face Of the
amusement which the junkst has ex.
cited these dsnials fall fat.
There is feeling Of sympathy, how
ever, for the newspaper man who &C
ccmpanied the couneilmsn on their
jaunt. He went rs matter OF busi-
ness in the capacity Of an individual
citizen, and yet has, In certain quar-,
ters, bssn subjected to ridisuls and
censurs for doings in which he had no
more part than that OF the witness who
sees and writss. Those who thus un-
justly attack him should reflect that
were it not for the newspaper publicity
which has bssn given to this junkst
many things might have occurred more
damaging to the cause Of municipal
reform than those things that did o.
cur during the celebrated eouucilmauic
tour which came to an end last Thurs =
day.
As for the official participants In the
junket they are hearing from the pso-
pie. and will doubtless hear further
from them in the course Of time.

CRUEL EVICTION.
Mr.. Pullman Proposes to Turn His
Starving Employees Out of the
Company Houses.

CHICAGO, Aug. 10 Mr. Pullman has
decided to turn the striking tenants
into the street He made up his mind
yesterday to evict them at their homes
this week. Legal papers, which must
be served on the starving strikers as
prlieminary to setting their goods
into the street were understood to bs In
course Of preparation IN Attorney Run
nel's office under positive orders of Mr..
Pullman Second Vice President
Wicks confirmed the report that the
tenants would be put out of the houses
as soon as the company could get rid
of them.
The excuse given for turning strik.
ers out Of their homes is that the
houses are needed by new workmen
who have taken the places OF strikers.
There are now nearly 400 vacant
houses in the various kinds in Pull
man. as many as will be needed by new
men for some weeks.
Should the company carry out its
programme in this regard, and there is
little doubt that every striker who
does not go to work will be put out
the town of Pullman would be almost
wholly dspopulated. Il would be, say
those who have watched the course OF
the whole trouble, the most cruel evic-
ton this country has ever seen, if not
one of the most heartless recorded in
history.
1t seems inevitable that no less than
3. 900 men, women and child
rem will be turned into the streets. At
least 1, 800 strikers are tenants of the
buildings Of the company, most OF
them men with large families. Few, if
any, Of them have paid dollar of rent
since the strike was declared. Nest Of
them are on the point of starvation
and 30 poor they could not pay an ex-
pressmsn for hauling their goods out
of town.
Th strikers have steadily avoided
discussing the possibilities of eviction,
although they were warned that it
would surely come. They have been
hoping the trouble would be settled in
some way that would not drive them
from the town.
The situation at Pullman yesterday
kept on getting worse for the strikers
who still hold out Nearly one thous-
and new men were employed from
down town and 100 additional ones
engaged to report tomorrow. The
company will then have nearly 1,7OO,
or within 300 Of the number it expects
to work this winter. The large pro-
portion Of them are new comers.

pan without having their desires in
this respect gratified. A few days be-
fore the pilgrims came, S. Chase, a
resident of Washington View park,
called personally upon DR.. Stephens to
ask permission for them to inspect the
old stone house, but the doctor is
reported to have said that if they
wanted to see il so badly they might
raise money enough in the crowd to
buy it and put it in repairs.
The old stone house is one of the
most important relics of Revolutionary

years DR.. Stephens has refused to al
low anybody on the property, and at
one time he built high board fence
around the house. The wicked little

this fence and gradually they carried
it away, piece by piece, until the last
vestige of it was gone. The building
is now in q shaky condition, and not
many more years will elapse before its
walls will fall in.
