just arrived here on the steamer Alliance
from Colon.
The Sisters left Elizabeth, II. j., eight
years ago to 60 to Ecuador and found
missionary schools there under Bishop
Schumacher.
In the recent revolution in Ecuador
the Bishop. his priests and nuns suffered
great indignities. Sisters Genevieve, Jo-
sephine and Frances and Sister Gertrude,
a native OF Ecuador, barely escaped with
their lives, and they fear the Bishop has
been asSaSSinated.
Sister Genevieve was the Superior of
the Mission at Calceta. Bishop Schu-
macher, with six priests, was on his way
to Quito and stopped at the convent on
June 10th. The revolutionists, who Bit
terly hated the Bishop. invaded the town.
surrounded the convent and demanded
admission, which was refused. The next
day second demand was made for the
Bishops surrender, with threats to burn
the convent. Bishop Schumacher gave
himself up.

ernment soldiers entered Calceta and
gave Dattie 10 tn0 feDelS. Inc troops
rushed back to the convent and began to
batter in the doors. Sister Genevieve
opened window and, displaying the
American flag, called on the insurgents
to desist.

"that we are Americans, under the pro-
lection of the United States flag, and you

the civilized world by this violence

crowd. and. redoubling their efforts,
broke down the doors and swarmed up
the stairs. The priests were knocked
down and cruelty beaten with the butts
of muske cts, and one. Father Angel, was
stabbed in the back and sank TO the floor.
The unfortunate Sisters were exposed
to shower of bullets, and how they es
capped being shot is nothing short of mi
raculous. The routed insurgents set fire
to the town in their retreat and the nuns
were obliged, with their host, to abandon
the house and fly to the country for
gafatV.

washed gradually Oft the ferry.

thrown around in the water by the ed
dies. The Chinese companies have q
