LEGATION az PEkNd

Picking, China, March Chinese
history appears to be on the verge Of
repeating itself.
The situation in the capital and
other Chinese cities is much the same
as it was II years ago. when wide
spread disorders brought the allied
troops, representing France. England,
Russia, Japan and the United States,
fighting their way to Tientsin to
Picking, where they rescued 5000
white men and Christianized Chinese
who for two months had stood off a
countless horde of Boxers from be
hind the walls Of the British legation.
Revolutionist and Manchu soldiers
alike have looted and burned and com
mitted wanton murder through the
streets Of Picking. Many missionaries
and other Americans are sheltered
with W. J. Calhoun, minister to China
from the United States, in the United
States legation.
Everywhere is expressed the fear
that a capitalization of the anti-for-
eign sentiment must shortly turn the
guns of the rioters against the Ameri-
cans and Europeans In the city just
as it did in the Boxer uprising, which
was melted by the Manchus, then, as
until recently, the ruling house of

| There had existed in China for more
than 100 years a secret society named
the I-Ho-Chuan- The name means the
League of the United Patriots, or the
League of the United Fists. according
to the way in which the last word of
the name is accented in Chinese. The
society was started by the Taloist
priests and all members were sup
posed to be immune from injury by
bullets or any foreign made weapons
A part of the rites was the practice
of boxing, and from this and the last
word in the name, foreigners dubbed
them the Boxers.
, On Feb. 7, 1900, the empress dowa
t ger of China issued an edict which, IL
t effect, called upon all Chinese to re
turn to the customs, practices anC
studies Of the ancients. The Boxers
