Faaatics to he Punished.

The stories Of the massacre committed
by the Chinese on the foreign representa-
tives and those with them in the British
Legation in Pekin causes a deep feeling
OF horror in Government circles and has
resulted in a determination that the lead
ers Of the Chinese fanatics who outrage
women and put men to death by torture
must be punished before anything else is
done. But nothing can be accomplished
without complete harmony between the
powers. and this Government is working 10
that end. For the present. however. the
Government will devote its efforts mainly
to meeting the crisis at Tientsin. as that
place must be in fun possession of the
allies before the advance on Pekin can
begin.

to prepare for an extended campaign in
