ority report Many Of tho sittings Of
The committee. Mr.. Bate said, had

he writes. "a sect who call themselves
'Krovoupitsi (bloodsuckers), has
made considerable progress. These
men have sworn to accept no quarter,
to expose themselves as much as pos

far as possible an exactly accurate
account of the number of heather
they have killed. To slaughter race
which rejects Christ they believe to
be a pious act; and many Of them
dread any conclusion Of peace which
would leave single Japanese alive
