CHINESE FOREIGN MISSIONS.

Account Of tho Attacks Given by the
Chung King Correspondent.
VANCOUVER, B. c., July 28.-The
steamer Empress of India from Hong
Kong brings news of the attack made
on the foreign missions in China a few
weeks ago. The Chung King corre-
spondent of the North China Daily
News tells the story as follows:
A riot occurred Al the premises of
Canadian Methodist mission hospital,
~dispensary and chapel being looted and
burned. Although the mob was kept
at bay for an hour or two, and although
the Yamen were rear and the soldiers
barracks were about five minutes walk
away, no attention was paid to the re-
quests for assistance. After resting
for the night the mob began again the
next day and when the day was ended
nothing remained Of the IL places Of
worship Of Protestant and Roman
Catholic missions. In every case the
officials made q
Mere Pretense Of Proteoting
or fatty refusing it. All took their cue
from the viceroy who had been degrad-
ed, and seemed to think nothing worse
could befall him. His hostility to for.
eigners has been notorious for several
years, and he seems to have intended
to give q parting hit as he was about to
leave. Even when the flames were
bursting out of the premises Of the
Roman Catholic mission, . stones
throw away, he did not lift q finger to
help, merely remarking that this was q
calamity for his successors to attend to.
Much Apprehension Felt.
Some Of the Canadian Methodist
missionaries who sought protection at
the soldiers barracks were driven out.
| One Of them, a woman with her little
ones, were kicked by the brutal SOL
diers.
Much apprehension is felt for the
missionaries Of the China inland mis-
sions. scattered in several stations over
Chang tn plain, away from water and
telegraph communications. II the for.
eign governments do not take stringent
measures there may be . clean sweep
Of the whole province. The people say
that the emperor has ordered the vice.
roy to drive out all the foreigners, BE-
ginning at Chang tn.

 Today's features Realizing sales, due to a rumor that Neill Bros. will estimate the crop at not less than 6600,000 bales, but at 6,S0O,000 bales maximum, and reports that Inman, Swann & Co. were selling heavily caused some decline, though at one time and in fact at the close it was steady after a moderate recession.

The Guardians Article.

Manchester. Oct. 16.--The Guardian, in it's commercial article. says The firmness in Manchester during the week has not been uniform, despite the hardening of the price of cotton. which. however. has stimulated nervous buyers to place a few orders. The tone of the market has been inactive with a tendency on the part of the buyers and sellers to get further apart. Advances have secured for a few small lines of special goods and staples for India, from which country complaints of stagnation in selling have come, owing to the higher>prices re- quired, dealers resolutey declining to pay the rates demanded fearing collapse. A meaner business has been done in sheet ings and shirtings for China. Yarns have figures.

Chicago Change.


 Chicago. Oct 16.-Some lingering signs of yesterdays strength in wheat were still ap- parent when the market opened today, but the bulls were without any fresh news or arguments with which to convince them selves or others that prices should go high er Liverpool cables came with decline of I'd, thereby ignoring yesterdays strength on this side. About the middle of the ses- sion an absence of support to prices was noted and a general easing took place until the announcement by Bradstreet's of an increase in the worlds available supply of 7SS6,000 bushels Then came break of Ac, after which business became slack and puts checked any further decline De- cember wheat opened from 61 to 607sc. sold between e1% and 6oAc. closing at 6ossa6o1sc; Cash wheat was irregular. but the nominal close was weaker and about 1sq1c lower. Corn-Partly in sympathy with wheat and partly on light receipts corn was quite firm until the slump succeeding Bradstreets an nouncement took place in wheat, when less strength was noted. But even at the close when wheat was weak, there was an air of sold between 29A and 29ssG29Kc, closing at 29lec, unchanged from yesterday. Cash corn was steady to firm.
 Oats-Whilst the firmness of wheat and corn was in evidence, oats held well. but with the disappearance of strength from the leading grains the minor one was unable to sustain itself. Cash oats were about hc higher, closing easy. May oats closed a shade under yesterday.
 ProvisionS-The news from the yards was discourasing this morning and 1t cast a shadow over products, which hung there all through the session. large run of hogs were announced. They were poor in quality and prices were off from to 10c per hundred pounds. Only light trade was seen in pro- Visions and after a lower opening prices varied but little. At the close January pork was 71ac lower, January lard 5lac lower and January ribs 23c lower

Some French statistician has turned
himself loose on the subject OF wasted
words and letters. The French and Eng
iish languages are. as he proves with many
figures, especially open to criticism In this
matter, and money is lost every year by
lnck Of verbal economy. The French Ian
guage contains 10 per cent Of useless let
tors. There are $500 journals published
In the language, and they print 10S, 000;-
900, 900 letters every year, SO that IA, goo,
900, 900 words are printed not because they
are needed, but because they have come TO
be used in the French language as It Is
spoken. The writer computes that 81, 9sB,
900 is the annual cost OF this useless ex-
penditure of printers ink In France alone
OF journals in the English language
there are 1900, and they are larger
Twelve per cent of our printed letters are
skipped over by the tongue in pronouncing
tho words, and so $1,000, 600 is thrown
away. Useless letters, he goes on to say,
I'LL up large amount Of space on paper,
and In this way Is lost sl5, 900, 900 among
English speaking people and %, 900, 900
In France. The time taken up in writing
these useless letters, II estimated at s5 a
day per journalist, is worth 81, 500, 600.

HAVANA, July 6.-Details reached here

the noted insurgsnt leader. II appears
that two severe engagements were fought
on Thursday at Palmas Atlas, not far

nineteen wounded. Among the killed on
the insurgent side was Amador Guerra
and Lieutenants Raphael Borrero and
Tamayo Y Ferrero In addition sixty of
the insurgents rank and file were killed.
The plantation Of Esperanto, near Santo
Domingo, In the Sagua la Grande district
of the province Of Santa Clara, has been
attacked by fifty insurgents, who seized
all the arms, and afterwards plundered
store at Muela Quieta. They cut the tel
egraph and telephone wires communicate
ing with Santo Domingo for distance of
ono league, interrupting communication
between that town and the country In
which they were operating. A detachment
OF troops has been sent In pursuit ofthem.
The insurgents have also burned several
houses at Tiarraba, not far from thu city
of Santiago de Cuba, their intention being
to cause the garrison to leave the fort and
start in pursuit Of them, but as the troops
did not leave the fort the insurgents
opened fire on it and kept up firing for
two hours At the expiration Of that time
the insurgents were compelled to retire,
leaving many dead and wounded on the
field.
