BIG CHINESE
UPRISING ON.
MObs at Canton and Nganking
Get Beyond Control Anti
foreign Sentiment.

SAN FRANCISCO, Feb. 16.-Otficers
of the steamship Doric, just in from
Chinese ports. say that just before the
Doric left Shanghai it was reported
that there had been an uprising in the
Suning district. near Canton, and that
the magistrate and many people had
heen killed. 1t was stated that Sebels
had Gathered in force and We're march
ing on Suning city. The Inhabitants
of the district were fleeing to Macao.
Two British gunboats, the Moorhen
and the Sand Piper, were ordered to
Canton.
G.. r.. Young. an eyewitness of the
recent riot in Shanghai, was a passen-
ger on the Doric. He tells of the in
tense antiforeign sentiment that exists
among the Chinese. Young says that
200 Chinese were killed in the riot in
shanghai and that only the presence of
the foreign g%unboats prevented the
wholesale slaughter of Americans and
Englishmen. He said:
The rioters ran from street to street,
searching for foreigners. Revolvers
and rifles were used by the Americans,
and the Chinese answered with volleys
of stones. Many were hurt by the fly
ing missiles. but l heard of no fatal
ties among the Americans or English.
zone Englisllwoman was attacked
and dragged by the hair. She was res
cued by Il party of her countrymen.
81 know of one instance where a par
ty of foreigners were driven to bay by
the mob and were compelled to kill six
of their assailants before they put them
to flight.
'That there will be trouble in China
is almost a certainty. The hatred OF
foreigners is there. and all the populace
want is some one to stir them to repeat
the atrocities of the Boxer uprising.
The foreigner who visits Canton at
present does so at the risk of his life.
The crowds gather about foreigners in
the streets of the city, and on several
occasions / have seen women insulted
by the Chinese.
Grade conditions are frightful. The
boycott is as rigid as ever. Not one
Chinese merchant would look at my
goods. 1t is absolutely useless to en-
deavor to sell American manufactured
goods to the Chinese. III the interior it
is worse than in the larger cities"
A report from Shanghai says:
another attack has been made on
Il foreign mission at Ngankinis. prov
ince of Nganhwei, on the left bank of
the Yangtsekiang river.
AN attempt was also made here to
murder the secretary of the French
municipal council while he was asleep
by ii trusted Chinese servant. The at
tempt was frustrated, and the assail-
ant was arrested.
MANY of the great provincial vice
roys'are displaying a marked anti
foreign attitude. which they would
hardly dare so openly assume unless
they thought that Picking approved of
their conduct. In the foreign settle
ments of treaty ports efforts are being
made quietly to recover privileges
granted to Foreigners
