WoHlNGToN. Aug. ..
No ofnoial advit ~, e reached the state
department concermSS 4, reported destrue-
tion of American mita. Y, roperty at Ing
hok. China. 1t is belle y the state de-
partment that the place re- T to is identi-
cal with Sui Hing, whersSSSS3 Nles we're
reported two days ago. and ny .ond dis.
patch really relates to the saiAe incident.
Acting Secretary Adee has received tele-
gram from Nashville. signed Jointly by the
Southern Methodist and Presbyterian mis-
sionary society officials. confirming the re.
port OF the outrageous character OF the llu
Cheng massacre. and urging the state de-
partment to protect the American missions In
China. Mr.. Adee has responded by tele-
graph that United States Minister DENLY
had already taken the most vigorous meas
ures TO secure the safety Of the Americans,
and that renewed instructions to that AFFECT
had already been cabed to the minister. II
is not doubted that Dir. Denby is doing every
thing possible In these disturbed conditions
to care for the missionaries but there are
some things beyond his power to accomplish
at this time lie has for many months per
aonaly and through the American consuls In
China urged the missionaries to come down
treaty ports, representing to them that no
matter how inclined he might be to do SO,
he could not dispatch ships overland or up
shallow streams to protect them. Admiral
Carpenter is ready TO do anything proper to-
ward cooperating with the minister. and II
he believes to be prudent to send some Of
his sailors and marines overland through a
hostile country, he is fully authorized by his
instructions from the navy depat ~1ent to do
so.
The state department fully intends to Sc
cure full and ample PREPARATION and Indemnity
for all injuries sustained by Americans and
indeed Minister DENLY has already made a
most vigorous demand on the Chinese gov
eminent to that effect.
A high Official Of the navy today, comment
ing on the criticisms that have been made
because American gunboats have not done
something to protect foreign missionaries in
China said that the situation Is not under
stood by these critics. The places where the
riots have occurred are many hundred miles
inland, where 1t Is impossible for ships to 60
lie also believed that ii would be useless to
attempt to send force from the ships by
land, and drew a comparison Of supposed
riot In Utah where British subjects were kill
ed and said It would be as reasonable to eN-
pect warships to reach Salt Lake, or to send
an armed force from New York. as to expect
the United States 10 reach the interior points
In China by gunboats or landing a force.
III II be the policy Of the American govern
ment" he continued. that every time an
American citizen is killed or American prop
erty In the interior destroyed. that our war
vessels should batter Il Chinese town on the
sea coast why then we might set our ships
at work"
