NOT CAUSED BY BOXERS.
Hankow Uprising the Result of q
Plot,

Paris. Aug. N.-Oflcial dispatches from
Shanghai explain that the Hankow upris-
ing was not due to the Boxers. but was a
plot organized by the partisans Of Kang
Yu Wei, the reformer. who proposed to the
Southern Viceroys a revolt against the
Pekin government. The leaders Of the
movement relied upon Chang Chi Tung,
Nceroy at Hankow. for arms, gunpowder
and other agents of destruction.
A proclamation, written in English and
addressed to Europeans, was seized. In 1t
the revolutionists declared themselves op-
posed to the Manchu dynasty. but ready
to uphold the present Emperor. They ex-
pressed themselves as desirous Of founding
constitutional government" of protect
ing foreigners and Christians, and of sup
porting the Powers against anti-foreign
fanatics.
The immediate effect Of the movement has
been to increase the peril of Europeans
Proof exists Of disorder and pllage due to
the same movement at widely separated
points. The headquarters of tho conspiracy
Is Hankow. from which point 1t ramified
into other Provinces.
Several thousands Of the supporters of
the movement have received instructions to
demonstrate In the central valley of the
iang-tse-Kiang, but the Viceroy has a
sufficient force Of regular troops to guaran-
tee the maintenance Of order. Twelve OF
the conspirators have been beheaded.

Wiring from Belfast to-day. Lord Rob-
erts says:
Our casualties yesterday Sunday were
wonderfully few. considering the heavy
firing and the number of hours We were
engaged Butler estimates his losses at two
killed and twenty-four wounded. His troops
had to bivouac where they stopped after

yet impossible.
THE casualties OF the force operating
north Of Eelfont were three killed and thir-
ty-four injured.

three of Olivier's sons also were captured
in the attack which the Beers made from
three sides on Wnhurg.
