Shanghai, Nov. 11.-Massacre of
Chinese by Manchus at Marking con-
tinued today, and imperialists are
even pursuing the people out of the
city, and chopping them to pieces.
Estimates place the number of
dead at $4,000. Dead and dying fill
the streets, cutters are running with
blood, and the city is like a monster
slaughter house, Manchu soldiers
are butchering infants, children, wo-
men and males without discrimina-
ton. Headless torsOs of babes litter
the streets, and the bodies of the
adults are frightfully 'mutilated.
Shops and stores are either burned to
the ground or completely wrecked.
The butchery Is the most atrocious
in the worlds history for hundreds
of years past.
All roads leading to the city have
been wrecked, and the path for the
thousands who sought fight from the
city is marked by carnage. The
butchery makes the atrocities of the
Boxer uprising fade into insignifi-
cance. And it is but half over.
The rebels are preparing terrible
retaliation. Once they take the city
the butchers sword will change to
Chinese hands, Manchus will be the
victims. News of the massacre is
causing thousands to join the rebels.
Reports have it that even Chinese
women are among the revolutionary
troops near Marking They are said
to have vowed vengeance for the
slaughter of their babies, and reports
from the rebel camps say arms are
being issued to them. They are mad
dened by participation and the most
awful experience of modern times.

Washington, NOV. 1l.-Admiral
Murdock in charge of the American
feet in Chinese waters, cables the
navy department today that the
Manchus attempted to set fire to the
foreign settlement at Foo Chow, near
where a desperate conflict is raging.
Following the attempt the rebel lead
ers, at the instigation of foreigners,
seized and beheaded large band of
the Manchu incendiaries.
Admiral Murdoch declared that he
believed he had enough ships for the
present, but indicated that events in
the future might require large re-
enforcement to guarantee the safety
of Americans in the battle region.
Fighting, Admiral Murdock's cable
says, was resumed today at Marking
where the slaughter of the Chinese
by the Manchus has been terrific.
Practically all Americans have left
the city, and, so far as is known,
none have yet fallen victims to the
carnival of murder and rapine which
is raging there.
Admiral Murdoch reported further
that he has sent the gunboat FL
Cano to Hankow.
