capture establishes the following facts:
Previous to the capture of that town the
japanese troops were. Infatuated by the
Wholesale atrocities perpetrated on their
comrades; nevertheless the Chinese who
promptly surrendered received no in

custody. A majority of those in the town
however thOught,tO disguise themselves in
the clothing left by the inhabitants, most
of whom had left the place some days be
fore. When detected these disguised SOL
dcrs attacked the Japanese desperately
and treacherously killed many of them.
Then discipline gave way, and great num-
bers were slain. If non-combatants We're
killed, which is not credited to any large
extent, it was in the firm conviction that
they were actual soldiers 1t isrepOrted
that three women were cut down in the
darkness owing to the similarity
Of male and female garb. Through
three successive days additional groups
of concealed Chinese were detected with
mutilated Japanese cOrpSeS Sccreted
among them. Maddcned anew by these
discoveries the cOnquerors destroyed humid
reds whom they otherwise would have
spared. The military authorities were to-
tally unprepared TO" these outbursts of
frenzy, and were powcrIess To exercise
control over the men. The government is

excuses were committed only in instances
where the troops were made frantic by
Chinese cruelties and treLchery This IS

pOpular of his works is DR.. Jckyl and Mr.
HYDE. which was dramatized and played
in London in 1888 and subsequently IN
the United States. Among his other
works are Kidnapped, The New Arabian
Nights and The Black Arrow. Some time

CANADIAN PACiFIC OBDURATE

CANADIAN L ACIE ~ ODDU - ~
Chicago, Dec. 1.-THE Western lines
have about given up all hope of forming
an association with the Canadian Pacific
as a member. That line from all appear.
ances, has been playing with the other
roads and at no time has it entertained
seriously the thought of entering into any
association with the others. 1t announced
today that if any agreement was reached
on the west bound emigrant traffic that
agreement must stand by itself without
reference to any other arrangements the
lines might have. This was taken to
mean that the Canadian Pacific had no
intention of joining the general associa-
ton auG a meeting of other lines was
called to consider the advisuhiltiy of
forming an association with that road on
the outside. The trouble i'll forming this
sort of an association is expected to come
from the Great Northern, which may de-
