There were forty foreigners in Sian.

The Swedish missionaries, Messrs.
Sandberg and Erickson, arrived here
from Tientsin. They said a telegram
had been received from Sianfu, before
their departure from Southern Shensi,
telling of the murder of Mrs. Beck
man, a schoolmistress. and five foreign
children.
Many Chinese girls in Miss Decking

Manchus because of their big feet,

nothing can be accomplished beyond
