lie convent there. The situation is

cellor of the Japanese legation, Sugi-
yama Akira, while proceeding alone
and unprotected on official duty, was
brutally murdered by soldiers Of T'ung-
Fuh-Siang, the favorite bodyguard of
the empress, at the Navigate railroad
station. The foreign reinforcements
are daily expected. The present iso-
lated position of Pelzin, the destruc-
ton of foreign property in the country
and the insecurity of life are directly
attributable to treachery of the Chi
nese government"
