World on News of China.
Washington, d. c., July 21.-Dr. J..
G. Ellis practicing physician of No.
1917 K street, this city, claims to
have received information thru secret
sources direct from China that Minis
ter Conger and his household are safe
and confined in subterranean pas
sage between the imperial palace and
the British legation. They are suf-
fering somewhat from lack of food,
the doctor says, but no bodily harm
has come to them. He declines to
disclose the source of his information
at present, but has informed the au-
thorities that he will do so at the prop
er time. When his communication
was first received at the White House
little Importance was attached to it,
but upon the receipt of cipher mes
sage from Minister Conger this morn
ing, Colonel Montgomery, who is in
charge of the White House in the alb
sence Of Secretary Cortelyou, wrote a
note to DR.. Ellis, asking if he had any
further particulars, and for his source
of information.
81 have just replied to Colonel
Montgomery, said Dr. Ellis when a re-
porter called at his residence yester-
day afternoon, stating that received
another message just before noon to-
day showing that the minister and his
family were still safe up to six o'clock
this morning. 1 told Colonel Mont
gomery that was not yet prepared to
give him my source of information,
but that he could depend upon it as
being absolutely trustworthy l ex-
pect another message tomorrow, and

Horrible Story Of outraue.

Horrible Story Of Outrage.
Shanghai, July 20.-A Chinese mer-
chant who has just arrived from Pek-
ing gives horrible details of the mas
sacre. He says he saw European woni-
en- hauled into the street by Shrek
ing Boxers, who stripped them and
hacked them to pieces. Their dissev-
ere'1 limbs were tossed to the crowds
and carried off with bowls of triumph.
Some were already dead, having been
shot by the foreign civilians.
He says he saw Chinese soldiers car
rying the bodies of white children
aloft on their spears, while their COM
panions shot at the bodies. He gives
other details too horrible to be partic-
ularized here.
1t seems the Boxer leader had or
gained plan including the offering
of rewards and rich loot for the an
inhalation of the Europeans turnout
China, and that Prince Tuans generals
have been emphasizing the opportun-
ity the soldiers have of selling the
bodies of white women.
