Hong Kong, Nov. 3.-Bishop Merel of
the Catholic Church, has received a let
ter confirming the news of the massacre
of American missionaries at Lianchow
and giving the following particulars.
DIR. Maehle requested the removal of
a street theratre near his hospital on
account of the noise. This request in
censed the Chinese, who becoming vio-
lent attacked the hospital. The mob
then paraded the streets exhibiting the
skeleton used in the instruction of the
medical classes alleging that it was an
example of the foreign inhumanity to
the Chinese people.
Becoming frenzied, the crowd burned
the hospital the girls school and the
residence OF the missionaries.
DIR. Maehle. Mrs. Machle, their ten
year old daughter, Mr.. and Mrs. Pearle,
DIR. Chestnut. and Miss Patterson took
refuge in a cave. The mob pursued them
