REFUGEES BRING INFORMATION OF SUDDEN UPRISING IN
 kWANG Sl.
AMERICANS ARE VICTIMS
m'ssioh, Hospital and College at Lien Chow Are Burned-Missionari Flee After Receiving
 Timely Warning.

Canton, China, Nov. 14.-Refugees. arriving here by boat from the prov lnce of kwang Si, reported practically all the American missions had been destroyed in revolt against foreign CTS which Is raging.
 The American mission, the hospital and the American college were burned.
 Three battalions of troops have been sent to quell the disturbed dis trict
 At Lien Chow, in the Kwang Si province. the mission is in charge of Doctors Marchel and Ross. Mrs. Ross. MT. Carver, MT. Kunkle, MT. and Mrs. Edwards and Miss Patterson.
 Missionaries Warned In Time.
 ORly by timely warning were the missionaries able to escape from the anti-foreign rioters.
 The uprising was totally unexpected by the missionaries. No disturbances have occurred in the Kwang Si prov ince for nearly two months and the Americans believed themselves to be on the most friendly terms with the Chinese.
 Two months ago there was an up rising which was not taken as a dem onstration solely against the foreign CTS, but chiefly as a protest by the natives against additional taxes.
 There has been considerable uneasi- rto r;o China, however, since the riots of last April and May, when scores of build ings, erected by Americans in various missionary colonies, were destroyed and attempts made on the lives of the missionaries.
 Uneaslness Among Missionaries.
 At that time, the riots were cen. tered in Chang Sha, near Pekin and the foreigners were given refuge by British warships. Big posters an nouncing all the missionaries would be killed were placarded throughout the town and a United States cruiser was rushed to Hankow, where fresh outbreaks were feared.
 The trouble in April grew grave when 6000 foreign drilled troops joined the rioters after making feeble attempt to guard the governor of the province.
 Rice Famine Caused Trouble.
 The riots at that time were caused mainly because of rice famine, which was sweeping that part of the country The foreigners were blamed by the ignorant class of Chinese for the food deficiency and were soon in cited into riot by fanatics.

WIRELESS MESSAGE SNATCHED FROM AIR AT FORT LEAVEN-
 WORTH, KANSAS.
PRESIDENT IS TREASURED
Stray Tidings, Thought to be From Secretary Knox, Lead to Belief Mexican Difficulty Is Not
 Serious.

Fort Leavenworth, Kas., Nov. 14.- "The editors of incendiary newspa- pers will be arrested. The embassy Is vigorously protected. I am in- formed upon unQuestionable authority that Anton Rodriguez was born in New Mexico and was an American cit iZen.'
 Message Picked Out of Air.
 This message, picked out of the air by the wireless station here, presum- ably sent from Secretary of State Knox to President Taft aboard the cruiser Tennessee, now somewhere in the Gulf of Mexico, is believed here to be the latest development in the threatened difficulty with Mexico.
 If authentic, it is believed that it means that any further fear of the severance of diplomatic relations be- tween the United States and Mexico may be set at rest.
 Alone with his instruments in the receiving station at this post the wire less operator was astounded when he read the message as it flashed in on his instruments.
 Fails to Catch Signature.
 Lowe paid no attention to whom it was addressed and was unable to catch the signature. But from it's substance it is thought that it was meant to acquaint President Taft with the Mexican situation as it now stands Other messages to President Taft sent from the Key West station have been cauSh, here.
 Not infrequently does the local sta tion catch messages being flashed from points. along the Atlantic to Gulf cities. Recently two messages in tended for New Orleans were picked up and sent by mail to the person to whom they were addressed. Answer was received that the local operator had read right, This fact leads to the belief that the message caught was of international importance
