Boxer Uprising Is Feared

Alarming reports from Picking In

Boxer uprising of ten years ago,

Formerly the capital of China,
Marking has long regarded Picking

as the foreigner, with aversion. Its
population, numbering some 45O,'
600 souls, has now become turbu-
lent and threatens violence to all
foreign devils" within the city's
limits. Menacing placards posted
along the streets call upon the peo-
pie to rise and slaughter the odious
strangers. To-day, the date of the
opening of the Marking exposition,

hostilities. Ostensibly. like the
Boxer trouble, an anti-Manchu up.
rising, the movement is said to be
really directed mainly against for
eign missionaries, merchants and
visitors, with the idea that now is
the time for the Chinese patriot to
recover what has passed into alien
hands.
So far no murders are reported,
only acts of insult and menace. The
country is flooded with warnings
from a mysterious Revolutionary
board of war" to the effect that
aliens must depart. Foreign con-
suls, much imple Ssed by the native
attitude, are giving their compa-
triots similar advice. A general
exodus is accordingly in prepare
ton and there is some solicitude

all foreigners reach shelter. There
are happily numerous warships of
various nationalities in the Yang
TIE river, or in easy reach of it,;
among the rest, several American
vessels. These will be able to pro-
tec5 fugitives from violence and
afford means of escape.
Unfortunately the unrest is not
confined to the province of Kiang-
su, of which Marking is the chief
town, but extCn is to Chilli and
other provinces. The anti-foreign
feeling is general, and observers in
many parts of the empire have
called attention to it's increase and
