LETTER FROM A MARTYR.



London. Aug. G.-The last letter
dated April s, from the murdered Eng
lish missionary. Rev. Mr.. Stewart. has
been received in London and describes
the critical situation OF affairs at Ku
Cheng. MIR. stewart wrote;
Ten days ago We were awakened ut
o'clock IN the morning by native
clergyman who crossed the river In or
der to bring the startling news that
daylight to storm Ku Cheng. The gate
ways of the city We're being blocked
with timber and stone to prevent their
entry. We had 100 men, women and
children in our compound outside the
town. We passed a terrible time OF
suspense until daybreak when torrents
of rain fell and the vegetarlans, not
liking the rain, postponed the fight.
All the missionary party started TO get
inside of Flu Chung. The male and fe-
male STAINS in the early morning, after
crossing the river in small parties In n
tin boat reached Kueseng wall, which
had to be scaled with ladders. During
the next few days bodies OF citizens
guarded the walls armed with prongs
and rusty spears. on the fourth day

Vegetarian leader. what occurred
during this interview We do not know,
nut nobody believes we nave seen the
end Of this matter, Such a serious az
fair could not be so easily patched up
and is probably only begun"
Mr.. Stewards letter concludes: IAN
the women and children on the advice
OF the American and British consuls
will be sent TO the coast. The opinion
prevails that II the Japanese-C Chinese
treaty Is arranged soldiers win be sent
from Flu Chuw to arrest the leaders OF
the rebels, but II II Is not arranged,
then the Vegetarlans win make the
thing a success"
