On Account of Alarming Reports in

Against Foreigners-Dowager EN-
press and Count Take Trip.

Pekin, April THE report received
here that. the action of the United
States in increasing her Asiatic squad
ron is ON account of the alarming re-
ports on the situation in China" ex-
cities surprise in Pekin. Such re-
ports were not sent by the United
States or British legations, which pos
sess good facilities for judging the
situation in China. The only disturb
ances considered serious are those In
the Kwang ST province, the southern
province of China, bordering Tonkin,
where 100000 rebels are said to be
under arms, which were not directed
against foreigners. The last reports
regarding General Tuhah Slang, the
Boxer leader, and Prince Tuan, the
exiled antiforeigner, who are at the
head of the insurgent forces in the
northwestern province of Kansu, are
reassuring. The government claims
to have come to an understanding
with them whereby they are to agree
to refrain from hostilities. 1t is be-
lieved that the government is supply
ing them with funds on condition
that they remain quiet.
The officials promise the foreign
ministers that the indemnity bonds
will soon be signed. The officials ap-
parently have concluded that it will be
impossible to obtain any concession
in the terms of the indemnity until
that formality is fulfilled.
The dowager empress and the court
started today on their journey to the
western tombs. They will be absent
from Pekin Is days.
Other trains will carry most of the
high officials in Pekin and the courts
entire household of eunuchs and cou-
cubines. Business traffic on the rail-
roads entering Pekin will be practical
ly suspended for several days. The
masses regard the pilgrimage with as
tonished disapproval and predict that
heaven will send disaster.
The United States consul at Canton
telegraphs that the famine in Kwang
81 province, resulting from the re-
bellion there, is serious. Thousands
will die unless assistance is forthcom-
ing. He recommends that relief con.
tributions be started abroad.

Robbery at Spokane.

Spokane, April robert G. Miller
tried to fight three masked holdup
men in his meat market at E1526
Sprague avenue and as result nearly
had his face blown off in the fight
which followed. He saved $3.50 he
had in his pocket as a result of his
plucky resistance, but $40 in cash and
about $40 in checks were taken from
the cash register. The attack was
made by the thugs just as the butcher
shop was being closed for the night.
Miller's wounds are merely flesh
wounds, but they are spread pretty
much all over his face, making it look
like the raw meat which hangs in his
shop. Several bullet holes in the
walls are visible evidences of what
might have happened to the scrappy
butcher had the robbers aim been
better.

by Acting Governor Murray. o'Brien's
case is most novel. He made his es-

letters to a Butte paper, giving his
side of the case to the public. The
letters were published, and O'Brien
then returned to the penitentiary, Je-
claring that as the public was now
aware of the true facts and his limo
cence, he soon would be pardoned.
O,Brien was sent up for the alleged
theft of wagon load of goods.
