Minneapolis, MINI. Dec, ga
special to the Times from Vancouver,
b. c., says;
News Of a terrible massacre OF re-
form forces in China and of the be-
heading Of twenty-seven Of its leaders
was received here today IN a cable
gram BY W. A. Cumrow, secretary Of
the Chinese reform association in
America The engagement took place
In q pOpulJus section of the Yang Use
valley. 1t resulted in the killing OF
! 500 men and the complete demJrali-
zation Of the reform forces In the bat
Tie into which the refOrmers were
brought
The Chinese here are loud in their
expressions Of disappToyal Of the con-
duet Of the campaign by their leaders.
1t appears from the details given In the
cablegram received today that Long
T0m the reform leader, at the head
OF a badly armed force OF 1900. paid
a visit TO Chang Chi Tung, governor OF
the district, who, though an imperial
officer was believed 10 be In sympathy
with the reform movement
Long was invited to the governors
palace and with his u 900 men marched
into the city. They left their arms
outside the gates, taking the precau-
tion only to carry their loaded re-
YOlyers
There were 5000 imperial troops in
the town, but nothing was feared from
them and delay of a day took place
I'm order that other reform leaders
misht De sent for and when the audi
ence with the governor was finally ar.
ranged there We're twenty-five uf the
leading followers Of Kang Yu Wei ad-
mtted.
Then disagreement arose, The
governor had the leaders sentenced and
taken into the court yard, where they
were beheaded, and in the meantime a
secret order had been sent 10 the i'm
perial troops TO descend upon poorly
armed rabble OF the refOrmers
The 5000 well drilled soldiers took
the country people completely by sur
prise, but nevertheless the latter
pluCkily fought their way through and
escaped. They carried away their own
wounded, but left 800 dead on the
field and scattered IN the streets Of tho
city The cablegram says that the
scene Of the butchery was frightful.

London, Dec. 26.-The position Of
Cape Colony is hanging in the balance.
According 70 the Morning Posts Cape
town correspondent everything de-
pends on the quantity OF ammunition
IN possession OF the disloyal Dutch res
idents, 100 VI whom have Joined the
Beers IN the PhiiliptOWn district only.
Energetic measures have been taken
TO stem the invasion, but there Is UNI
questionable danger that parties Of
Beers VIII get through into parts Of
the colony ana gradually raise the
whole cape in rebellion, ReintOrcements
can arrive none too soon.
Most Of the dispatches from Cape
town describe the raiders as doing lit

The Standards Capetown cores
pendent says the loyaists demand that
martial law shah be proclaimed
throughout Cape Colony, but adds
such step Is now impossible owing
to the lack Of sufficient troops to en-
force IL.
The correspondent Of the Daily Mail

THE pro-Boer press is singuiarly

Charge Made Against q Reedville
Teacher.
Hillsboro, Or, April 2l.-A sworn
complaint, signed by N. P. Oakerman
and l other patrons of school district
No. 80, dir ,cted against U. S. Nc
Hargue, the principal of the Reedville
school, was today forwarded to the
state department of public instruction
at Salem, asking that the teachers GER
tificate be revoked. The petition al
leges that McHargue has been guilty of
gross misconduct, and that during
school hours he has been guilty of kiss
ing the older girls, much "to their dis
gust and annoyance" and, further,
that owing to this conduct. many of the
larger girls are remaining away from
school. McHargue is chargd with
voting at a school meeting at q January
session, while his name does not ap-
pear on the tax roll for 1899. One
singular statement in the complaint is
the allegation that at the March school
meeting the principal accused one of
the complainants of ''killing his (com-
plainant's) eldest son." For these
charges and others of like nature, the
petitioners ask that the state certificate
of McHargue be revoked.
