Ordered to Assemble at Chi

MASSES ARE ANTI-FOREIGN

Leaders of Both the lmperials and

king.
Peking. Nov. 20.-The United States
legation has ordered all Americans to
leave the Chinese interior for the
treaty ports. The outlook for an anti
foreign outbreak is considered very
threatening.
1t was regarded as practically GER
tain from the first that If the present
disorders In China were long contin-
ued they would ultimately develop a
phase of hostility to alien residents.
The leaders, both of the imperialists
and rebels, realize the danger to the
Chinese themselves of an attack on
foreigners and have undoubtedly done
all In their power to prevent 1T. The
masses of the people, however, are
bitterly anti-foreign and reports from
every direction make it plain that they
are rapidly getting out of hand.
Rumors continue to arrive of bat
tie raging at Marking, but the proba-
bilities are that such fighting as has
already occurred is no more than pre-
iiminary skirmishing. The rebels out
number the imperialists, but the city's
defenders are better disciplined and
strongly entrenched. Every indication
points to desperate engagement.
Confirmation is lacking of the report
that Admiral Sab has been captured
by the rebels, but since his fleet has
fallen into rebel hands the story of
his capture seems likely. The gun
boats, manned by rebel crews, are
maintaining their embargo on Chinese
shipping on the Yangtse.
Reports cabled here from London
that the rebels plan to secure the
services of General Homer Lee, an
American, to maintain a government
for about three years, while admins
trative forms are being effected, have
aroused the keenest interest among
foreign residents in China.

attempt to review the finding of the

of the court will be to quash the writ,
