SAN Francisco, Feb. Sin the stories
of the murders of missionaries and
foreign residents recently in China, de-
tails of particularly barbarous affair at
Chongan Chang, involving the life of
an Englishmar named Fleming, and
Evangelist Pan, have been wanting. J..
R. Adams, of the Chinese inland mis-
sion, visited the ecere of the murders,
and tells of a shocking condition Of af-
fairs, in the North China Daily News.
He ascertalned that the people of Chon-
gan had determined to take the life of
every foreigner in the place, and when
Mr.. Fleming set foot in the town he was
a doomed man.
At least 200 people witnessed the MUIR
der from the opposite side of the river.
Evangelist Pan was suddenly and quick
ly cut down. Mr.. Fleming dismounted
from his mule to go to his assistance.
but he, too, was attacked and slain after
a desperate conflict, in which he was
dreadfully wounded with sword and
an iron spike. The two victims were
stripped of their clothing and their
bodies left for days on the public road.

German-Ameri Opinions on What
1t should Be.

MILWAUKEE, Dec 1.-The Herold
will publish tomorrow the result the
efforts of the editor, Mr.. Edgar w. Cole
man. to ascertain the sentiment among
the German-American population of Wis
consin on the expansion question He
obtained from the chairman OF the Re
publican committee in every county of
the state except Milwaukee the names Of
five representative German-American Re-
publicans, the chairman of the county
committee not knowing for what purpose
the names were requested. Mr.. Coleman
wrote to the five men in each county ask
ing an answer to the following ques-
tons:
l. Are you and your friends of the
opinion that the American government,
after the close of the war in the Philip
pines, should retain the islands as terri
tory and property of the United States,
and give to the tilipinos a suitable form
Of government under the direction and
control of the United States, or,
2. Are you of the opinion that United
States troops should be recalled imme-
diately, and the Filipinos left to take
care of themselves, or
3. Are you Of the opinion that after
the close Of the war the United States
should give to the bfiipinoS the broadeSr
self-government and content itself with
protectOrate?
The replies so far received are classified
by Mr.. Coleman as follows For ques-
ton one, 55; for question two, 10; for
question three "a. Five ignored direct
answers, but expressed confidence that
the administration would adopt the proper
course, four were undecided between
question one and question three, and nine
were undecided as to the proper policy 10
be pursued.
In a letter to President Mckinley, Mr.
Coleman says:
that we should never have assumed pos
session of the Philippine islands, and
should not retain them as American ter

LAST OF THE LOT.
Billy Brady's Cargo of British Box
erS All Beaten.

NEW YORK. Dec. 1.-Dave Wallace,
the last Of the cargo of English fighters
which was imported here within the last
few months, went down in defat like his
predecessors tonight at the Broadway
Athletic club. Joe Bernstein, of New
York, placed several blows on Wallace's
face and body, and In exactly seventy
three seconds the Englishman lay pros
trate, unable to come to time. He was
counted out and his seconds had to car
ry him to his corner. The boys met
for a twenty-five round go at 124 pounds.
Bernstein was the aggressor, and he
ran to the Englishman's corner Wallace
attempting e get clear away. but Joe
was inside his lead and tolted his left
four times in Wallace's jaw, sending
the Englishman to the floor. When he
got up Wallace looked a bit weary, and
Bernstein went after him. sending his
right over to the head. Wallace dodged.
but slipped to the floor in avoiding the
blow. The BrIton got up Immediately,
only to go down again from straight
left. This time he took longer, but rose
within the time limit. Bernstein then
landed on the point Of the Jaw which
put Wallace to the floor, where he lay
on his left side as if dead.
