JUSTIFiES MISSIONARIES.

tons During the Picking Siege.
Victoria, B. c., April 24:-In an in
.terview with the Kobe Herald. Min
lister Conger, who is on his way to San
Francisco, said:
"There were really no actions on
the part of the missionaries there
that were not entirely justified, when
the circumstances are known. Mis-
sionaries did not loot. Missionaries
found 1900 destitute men and women
on their hands. There was no gov
eminent, no organized authority
There were houses of men who had
been firing on the foreign quarter,
directing the attack of the Boxers,
their property had been abandoned
as a result of the state of war and it
was taken in order to succor hundreds
of suffering and destitute Chinese
whose lives the original owners had
been laboring to destroy. Winter was
coming on and measures of some kind
were imperative and the appropria-
ton of property for the neds in view
was unquestionably justified That
practically was the situation. I am
prepared to justify. the conduct of the
American missionaries before the
siege, during the siege and after the
siege"

every effort was being made to ap-
prehend the bandits; that private de-
tectives and special agents of the
railroad company were engaged on
the case. Owing to the bottoms being
overf1owed, he does not think the
bloodhounds will be able to trail the
robbers. The Wells-Fargo Express
company has standing reward which

Size Of the Regular Army Has Been
Approximately Determined.
Washington, April 24.-It has been
determined to increase the regular
army to approximately $4,000 men and
to leave it at that number unless con-
ditions in the Philippines should make
more troops necessary. The president
and Secretary Root have reached this
conclusion and the details will be
worked out by the secretary and Cen
eral Miles. The number of. officers
appointed will be as originally COP
tempiated. The artillery corps will
be increased to it's full strength, Of
$4,000 men. Some time ago it was
announced that the troops of cavalry
would contain IS instead Of 80 enlisted
men, and it is expected the infantry
companies also will be reduced to
bring the total to the figure agreed
upon. It has not yet been determined
what proportion of the troops shall
be stationed in the Philippines, al
though it is known that large force
will be needed there for some time.

WISH AMERICANS TO STAY.

Chinese Ask for Retention of United
States Troops in Picking.
Picking, April 24.-Many applica-
tons have been made to Mr.. Rockhill
and General Chaffee by Chinese of all
degrees for the retention of the Amer
lean troops in Picking until the with
drawal of the troops of all the powers.
Many of those who are making this
request think the withdrawal of the
Americans will make the others re-
main longer. There are many who do
not desire to see any of the soldiers
go, fearing anarchy and an uprising
against the foreigners. The soldiers
who return do SO with all the honors
of war.
Field Marshal Won Waldersee has
made an application that the gate Of
the Forbidden City be guarded by Ger
man troops after the departure of the
Americans. General Chaffee has re-
piled that American soldiers will con-
tinue to guard the gate At this the
Germans are indignant, saying this
impugns their honesty and that if the
United States desires to do her share
of policing the city she should leave
behind enough troops for that purpose,
that merely a. few men belonging to
the legation guard should control the
gate, which. will be within the German
quarters: cannot be allowed. If Gen
eral Chaffee persists in this course
diplomatic representations will be
made in the matter.
The. ministers of the foreign powers
are meeting daily. They do not at
present, show; a disposition to reduce
the: claims, which many think to be
extremely reasonable.

and a vigorous campaign would be

He walked the room, pausing: at
times before her as she sat in her arm
chair. Her black eyes followed him.
Her white face was frozen into an i'm
penetrable mask. He described the
occurrences of the last few days, and
made clean breast of it all, reserving
only certain facts in connection with
his experience with Louise, among
which was the existence of a child.
These reservations he mentally classed
as irrelevant.
It is not likely that .Raymond's con-
fessions greatly surprised his mother.
She was, in fact, already familiar with
most of his history. The disturbing
elements of his statement were the
dangerous character of Louise and the
astounding circumstances of the

excitement or dismay. She regarded
her son silently and sternly for a few

specific as the chief, and told him
that he had no intention of reap
