ATTITUDE OF MISSIONARIES.
Letter from Secretary Hay to DIR.
Brown, of the Presbyterian Board.

Brown, OF the Presbyterian Board.
NEW YORK, Jan. 9.-The Rev. DIR.
Arthur j. Brown, one of the secretaries of
the Presbyterian Board of Foreign Mis-
sions, recently wrote to President Mckinley
regarding current reports criticising the
missionaries in China for urging the gov
eminent to what was termed a reveng,ful
policy towards the Chinese. He asked for
information as to the matter. To-day DIR.
Brown gave out a letter which he had re-
ceived from Secretary Hay. The secretary
Of state says that the secretary to the
President had referred to him the letter
received from DR.. Brown, and he quoted
from that letter a sentence to the effect
that If ANY booldthirsty communications
from missionaries have been received at
the White House or the State Department
it Is important to know to what ,ienomi-
nation such missionaries belong In order
that no injustice be done to innocent nav
ties" In his letter Colonel Hay says:
Many worthy and estimable men have
written to the department in regard TO the
matter of settling the problems. No com
municatiuns of this nature have been re-
ceived .ron. the great mission boards or
their authorized representatives. Individual
letters have been addressed to me by mis-
sionaries, active or retired, honestly and
sincerely expressing their personal senti-
meuts, to which the President and i at
tach weight because the writer's appear
TO have a useful knowledge of China and
its people, so that no indication Of this
kind based upon knowledge or belief is
passed over. These communications like
those we receive from more or less we'll
informed laymen and like the utterances
of popular sentiment in the press aud the
conclusions of the representatives of the
powers at Picking, give widely various
opinions as to the degree of PREPARATION and
punishment which may be deemed effective
ana deterrent for the future.
1T is not thought that at the present
j~uncture any good result can accrue from
the publication of individual views. whether
moderate or extreme, In either direction.
All alike have aided this government In
shaping its own course so as 10 give the
most hopefully practical effort to its de-
termination, long since announced. to ex-
act the utmost accountability of the au-
thors of the crimes whereby our citizcns
have suffered in China and TO reach a set
Element which shall secure the good order
and integrity of China, preserve the Just
rights of foreigners in the empire aud pre-
vent a recurrence of the late disorder.'

ROWATTHE FRENCH BALL
POLICE INSPECTOR ATTACKED ii
WRONG WINE SERVER.
Got a Licking for His Mistake, and
When Other Policemen Interfered
u Riot Was Precipitated.

NEW YORK, Jan. 9.-The French ball,
which started off rather quietly last night
became faster and wilder during the early
morning hours and wound up in a general
row, in which a number of spectators were
arrayed against several policemen headed
by Inspector Thompson. The fight began
over a contention between a waiter, whose
number and name are known, and a box IN
which were an actor and a number OF
friends. The waiter declared he had opened
a bottle of wine for the party at the in
stance of the actor, but the latter declared
that the wine had not been opened, and he
refused to pay for, 1t. The waiter tried to
insist on the payment. To quiet matters
and get rid of the scene one of the actors
friends paid for the bottle of wine and
the waiter went away.
Inspector Thompson saw the latter part
of the scene. and. believing that the waiter
had swindled the box party, he decided to
interfere. He ran after the waiter. He
was not in uniform, and as he reached the
waiter he attacked him. The waiter ran oft
as fast as he could, with Thompson fol-
lowing. The first waiter disappeared In
the crowd and Thompson seized another
one, thinking it was the man trying to es-
cape. He and the new waiter came to
blows. The fight was all one-sided. as the
waiter was taller than Thompson and
heavier, and he hit the inspector in the
face a number of times, staggering him.
Meanwhile the fight had attracted much
attention and nearly everybody in the gar
den ran to that part of 1t where the fight
was going on. Policemen in uniform, in
civilian clothing. wardmen and detectives,
headed by Captain Thomas, of the Tender
lcin, ran up to see what was going on. The
spectators saw that the police were taking
they did not know, and the waiter was
likely to get the worst of it.. They sided
with the waiter, and for a few minutes the
police had a hard time to hold their own.
Finally the crowd was quoted and the
waiter was taken to the station house,
where. after a short time. he was released,
as no one pressed a charge against him.
