they would meet with the hostility of the
Canton men. As for the latter the min
lister declares they are entirely satisfied
with their condition in this country, and
could not be persuaded TO return to China
TO give aid to any element opposed to
Americans.
The government here has taken note of
the efforts made in some quarters TO stir
an agitation against the peaceful China
men in the United States. 1t feels il is
imperatively necessary 10 use the entire
resources of the government 10 suppress
any movement that would jeopardize their
safety. Anything like a massacre of the
Chinese in the United States would wreck
the whole case of the United States gov
ernment in the settlement which must
come of this Chinese trouble. Our. gov
ernment could not demand reparation or
indemnity from China for whatever hap
pens az Pekin or elsewhere in China if the
Chinese government through violence Of
our people, were put in position to claim
a set-on growing out of violence shown
its people in the United States. Therefore,
steps have been taken already to have
the authorities in localities where there
may be danger of anti-Chinese outbreaks
repressive measures at the first symptom
of trouble And it may be stated that
there will be no halting in the use of the
Federal troops for such purposes if they
are called for by the state officials

REFUGEES FROM rIEN Ts1N.
British Women Complain Bitterly of
Their Hardships.

Che Foo July TO- via Shanghai, July Ia
Several hundred refugees, most of them
women and children, have left Tien Tsin
in accordance with Admiral Seymour's Or
der to all non-combatants to depart. Many
women have remained behind, however,
refusing to leave their husbands whose
business detains them. The refugees were
sent down the river on board lighters
and tugs, and were then transferred to
merchant ships in the harbor.
The American and japanese warships
received their people, the officers of the
United States gunboat Yorktown gener-
ously entertaining 200, most of them mis-
sionaries and their families. The British
refugees were crowded on a dirty freight
er, and women accustomed to luxury
have been sleeping huddied together on
the decks. They complain bitterly be-
cause the half empty British feet declines
10 receive them, and they have drafted a
strong protest 10 Admiral Seymour.
The United States transport has arriv-
ed with the Ninth Infantry from Manila
The work of Decentralization will occupy
some days, as boats are scarce. The Logan
win take the American refugees to Nagas-
aki, and the Yorktown will leave to tow
the Oregon to Yokohama.
Cannon from the warships are being
sent 10 Tien Tsin to silence the Chinese
guns. Twenty-three guns shelled the Chi
nese batteries yesterday, the Chinese re-
plying intermittently. Bodies from 2,00C
to 5000 attack the foreign lines daily. A
field battery is supporting the brunt OF
the attacks against the railway station
