China ACTS STUBBORN

From Riots Investigation.

The Latter Blame Their Trouble on For
eigners, which Incites Them to vio-
lence-Chinese Diplomats Attribute Re-
fusal to Ku-Cheng Local oacers.

SHANGHAI, Aug. 20.-A dispatch to
The Mercury from Foo-Chow says it is
reported on good authority there that
the Chinese government has refused to
allow the American and British consuls,
Mr.. j. G. Hixson and Mr.. r. w. Mans
field, who accompanied the commission
appointed to investigate the recent mas
sacres of missionaries and their families
nt Ku-Cheng, to make any investigation
into the circumstances Of the massacre.
A London special says: The Times
has dispatch from Hong Kong con-
6rming the Shanghi dispatches con-
tanning the report that the Chinese gov
ernment has refused to allow the Amer
lean and British consuls to make any
investigation into the Ku-Cheng mas
sacre. The Times dispatch adds that
soldiers are engaged in plundering the
people, who feel that the foreigners are
the cause of their suffering, and that
therefore the latter should be destroyed
Further incendiary placards have been
posted at Canton.
A Hong Kong special says: The pre-
feet sent with the commission to Ku-
Cheng, together with the Chinese off,
cials at Ku-C Cheng, have refused to al
low the presence of the consuls during
the examination of the prisoners. The
matter has been referred to the viceroy.
Serious trouble is feared.
A Washington special says: The Off
cials of the Chinese legation have no
information throwing any light on the
reported refusal Of the home govern
ment to permit the members of the
mixed British and American commits
sion to investigate the Ku-Cheng mas
sacre. In fact the legation has not yet
been apprised officially Of the appoint
ment of the commission. The only ex-
planation given as reason for the re-
ported refusal is that the action reported
to have been taken was by the Chinese
local officials, who possibly have not
been informed by the central govern
ment Of the appointment of the COM
mission to make the investigation, the
local officials acting merely ON their
own inclination in the premises.
