FOREIGNERS SHOULD HESITATE.


LONDON, June 12-The Daily Express
publishes the following from st. Peters
burg:
prince Ochtomsky, editor of the Viedo-
mosti, and who Is a great Chinese author
ity, SAYS that the Boxers are one of the
old secret societies with which the modern
society of China is honeycombed. They
have been working against foreigners for
several generations. The Boxers will prob
ably be put down, but it Is feared that a
great number Of men. women and children
will be murdered before that can be effect
ed. The prince says the present difficulty
is of a temporary nature and cannot be
compared with the great upheaval that is
to come. European attempts to divide and
to coerce China will only result, he pre-
diets In the Chinese becoming more united
in their hatred against foreigners. Already
they are exceedingly embittered against
them. He considers that the Europeans are
to blame for exploiting and taking ad-
vantage of the Chinese. Formerly they were
an extremely peaceful and inoffensive peo-
pie; but Europeans. with their miiitarism.
are changing all this.
1.-The prince goes on to say: The awak
ening of the Chinese will be terrible. All
those warlike instruments OF destruction,
the use of which they are being taught. will
probably be turned against the Europeans
themselves. The Chinese have no fear of
death, and they make excellent soldiers un-
der European instructors. The prospect for
the Europeans is not pleasant. One plan,
nerhaps the best plan, would be to disarm
the yellow races and to police China with
European troops. but the powers are so
jealous of another that even this plan
is difficult TO carry out. In case or gen.
eral revolt Russia has not too many troops
at her disposal, considering that she has
not only to guard long stretch of railway.
but to protect her subjects in Manchuria
from being murdered. She will. therefore,
not be able to send many to Picking.
1.-The Prince sincerely trusts that Russia
will never have to fight the Chinese He

A WORD FROM AMERICA.
Wofmn rams Thinks IL Would stop the
south African War.

GRAND RAPIDS, Mich. June n.-Boer
Envoy Wolmarans addressed large and
enthusiastic audience here tonight. speak
ing in Dutch, for the benefit OF the many
Hollanders present. Montagu White and
Sybrant wesselius made addresses in Eng
lish Mr.. wolmarans reviewed the circum-
stances leading up to the war. In discuss
ing the news OF the disaster TO Lord Rob
erts. recorded in to-day's Associated Press
dispatches, he claimed that he and his fell
low-envoys had been expecting something
OF this nature since the evacuation of Pre-
toria. which was. he said. only part of
the general Boer plan. The Transvaal gov
eminent realized that Ii would be useless
waste OF property and lives of their wom-
en- and children to have defended the city
and thus placed il under all the horrors of
a siege and they had therefore. decided TO
evacuate IL and make their stand in the
mountains.
I'VE do not want the United States TO go
TO war in our behalf, said Mr.. VOL
marans. But We believe thai the war can
be stopped by word from this great Ma
people that this word shall be spoken. We
do not expect sympathy or assistance from
your wealthy class. but we know that the
common people are with us, almost to a
man."

RAIN IN SOUTHERN INDIA
FAMINE SITUATION, HOWEVER, HAS
NOT CHANGED.
Nearly Six Million People Are Re-
ceiving Relief - More Money
Needed by VicerOy CurxOn.

LONDON, June 1.-THE viceroy of India,
Lord Curzon. of Kedleston, has cabled to
the secretary of state for India, Lord
George Hamilton. announcing that good
rain has fallen in southern India, that
there have been scattered showers else
where. and that the meteorological reporter
forecasts a good but late monsoon. The
hot weather. however. still prevails. and
the famine relief situation has not altered.
There are now about 5,S02,000 persons re-
ceiving relief.
In concluding a description of the ex-
IRENE restitution and painful distresses
endured by the affected population, the
viceroy urges contributions ito save from
the saddest death and to start again in
what at no time are the brightest of lives
our suffering fellow-creatures."
The Standards Simla correspondent, In
a mail letter, says: at would be rash to
assume from the almost stationary relief
figures that the corner will soon be turned.
So devastating has been the cholera out
break. so enormous the mortality. and so
blind the terror inspired by this black
death that the famine relief camps in
Bombay presidency. which contained thou
sands of workers. melt away and are left
empty in the course of a couple of days.
Starving though they be the people prefer
to fly to their own homes and to die in
quiet than TO remain in the famine relief
camps where the cholera is striking down
q hundred workers daily.
Terrible stories come from Dohad. There
the famine is at its worst and now the
cholera is completing its work. An eye
witness says: AS we walked through these
Quiet streets we saw deserted homes AMI
dead bodies. One brave act witnessed was
little girl, aged seven, attempting to care
for two little brothers after the mother
had given up all hope and lain down near
them to die. She was feeding a fire which
burned beneath a broken pot in which SIM
rnered the almost rotten feet and bones of
some dead animal The scene cannot be
painted too black. No account we have
ever read of any famine would picture the
state of affairs at Dohad."
The Standards correspondent says the
mortality estimates are inaccurate, as I'M
numbered dead bodies are polluting the
streams and spreading contagion.

Trouble Scented at the Leech Lake
Indian Agency-One Arrest Made.

MINNEAPOLIS, Mimi, June n.-Word
was received here to-day that there is dam
ger of another Indian uprising at Leech
lake. An Indian giving the name of Gway-
Tay-Gonce appeared at the Leech-lake
agency recently and announced that he
was the Messiah. He said that all of his
descendants, Indians and white men. who
lived in houses, were soon to be destroyed
by a big cyclone, but all Indians who lived
in tepees would be saved.
The man secured the confidence of many
of the Indians, who had such faith in him
that about two hundred left the agency
and went into camp on Squaw Point. The
matter gradually grew so serious that
Captain Mercer, the Indian agent, had
Gway-Tay- Gonce arrested. The other In
dams remain on Squaw Point and are be-
coming ugly They make many threats,
and as there are no troops at the agency,
trouble is feared. United States Marshal
Grimshaw admits trouble is brewing.

Felix Davidson, was set for to-day, at
Manchester, and il is reported that both
the Philpots and Griffins were armed

jurors and witnesses refused to serve
Thinking Judge Browns right to the
judgeship is in doubt, they fear they will
not get pay for their services. A jury was
finally impaneled with difficulty. Judge
Brown adjourned court on Saturday morn
ing and left Manchester. The people there
think he went to get Governor Beckham to
send him some soldiers. 1t is thought by
the citizens of the town that trouble is
sure to come in the near future between
the Philpots and Grifins.

QUADRUPLE TRAGEDY.
Four Members of n Household Muir.
dered and Their Home Burned.

WEST NEWFIELD, Me, June 11.-Geo
w. Goodwin and three members of his
household were murdered last night and the
house I'm which they lived set on fire by
the murderer. whose motive was presum-
ably robbery. The dead are George w.
Goodwin; his mother, Mrs. Elsie r. Horne,
seventy-six years of age: his adopted son.
Scott Goodwin, twenty years of age. and a
hired man, Fred Bertsch The bodies of all
four were recovered this afternoon from
the ruins of the house and two of them,
those of Mrs. Horne and Bertsch, gave
every indication that they had been foully
murdered. Suspicion rests on a farm hand
named Champion who had been in the
.leighborhood.
Goodwin sold a piece of woodland re-
Gently for $1,000. Neighbors say he did not
put the money in the bank and they think
this prize induced the murder.
