TREASON IN PEKING
REBELLION SPREADS OVER ALL
cHINA-REPU5LIc REPORT
ED PROCLAIMED.
FOREIGN MARINES LANDED
Terror Reigns and Fires Rage In
Hankow-Rebels Fail to Maintain
order-Prisoners Set Free PiIIase
and Loot-Scores Killed.

Peking-The rebellion Is spreading
rapidly. A well-defined rumor says
that a republic has been declared at
Wu-Chang and that the rebel leader
at Hankow has notified the foreign
consuls that a new government has
been established.
PekIng, 1000 miles away from the
rebel stronghold, in the center Of the
province is threatened with the fate
Of Hankow, a large part Of which
has been destroyed by fire and where
hundreds Of Manchus have been
killed.
The government decided to con-
centrate its efforts to save Peking
and unprecedented military activity
within the walls of the great city Is
the result. Thirty thousand troops,
who were to have departed for the
military maneuvers at Kaitong. are
on the move in the streets and sew
eral other divisions Of the army are
entraining for the suburbs.
That Peking can be saved is
deemed impossible. The garrison Is
known to be partially disloyal and 1t
Is feared the first uprising will be
the signal for a wholesale desertion,
which can mean nothing less than
the destruction of the city.
I-Chang and Yo-Chow have been
taken and hundreds of their Manchu
residents slain. A dispatch reports a
battle at Chungking and predicts
the early fall of that city.
The troops at the great military
posts at Paotingfu and Tientsin, 6
few miles outside of this city, are
reported to be ready to join the in
surrecuonists. 1t is reported thai
Chansha, the capital Of Human, has
been captured and that the yamens
of the viceroy and the Tartar general
have been burned.
Wild disorder prevails at Hankow
The revolutionists are making every
effort to restore order in the city
Great numbers of criminals who were
liberated from the prisons and thu
Hooligan element are pillaging anC
foraging what few buildings remaiI
standing.
The loss of life cannot be estimated
The streets in the native quarter are
filled with dead. AS fast as the riot
ers are captured they are executed
Scores have met death In this manner
All the province of szechuen. wes
of the Miu river, is in the hands O.
the rebels. The revolutionists have
seized the provincial treasury ant
mint at Szechuan, which contained
about 100000 taels.
Fifteen thousand regular Chinese
troops in the province Of Szechuar
have Joined the rebels, leaving thu
province with practically no govern
ment protection.
The foreigners have not been mo
Tested as yet A division Of allied for
eign marines have landed to protec'
the foreign concessions. They are
commanded by the Japanese admiral
Kewashima The women and children
were taken aboard the warships, o.
which there are two Americans. two
