USSIANS LA AN NATIES Massacre Two Hundred Peaceful Chinese in Manchuria. Special Dispatch to The Call. VICTORIA, B. C., Aug. 2i.—Advices re- ceived by the Empress of China from the include further complaints by Chi- nese papers of cruelty on the part of the The Russian force which has been dispatched against the insurgents in the Kwanhien-Tien district of Man- churia is sald to have massacred 200 peaceful Chinese citizens, who, the sol- diers claimed, were mistaken for Bazouk brigands. The story is published by many English papers in China and Japan. In one it is credited to a French mission- ary, and in another the statement made that 300 Bazouks were mercilessly put to death. No details of the massacre were given. The Shanghai Mercury says that the disturbances on the Manchurian-Korean frontier are assuming larger proportions than was expected. The Russlans at first hoped to master the Tebellion with a few | regiments, but they have now more thain 20,000 men on the frontler. Owing to the great secrecy in_which all their move- ments are covered nothing can be learned of_the actions that have taken place. W. White, assistant president of the Canadian Pacific Raiiroad, who has re- turned from a trip through Siberia, says that while at Irkutsk he learned that General Gribski had not committed sui- cide by reason of his disgrace over thc Amur massacre of last year, as was Te- ported, but had been banished to Kam- chatka, The Shanghai Mercury publishes a let- ter from Rev. Frank Harman of Chou- pios, who has been journeying through North Shantung, to the effect that Box- ers are drilling and preparing for a rising in that province. Christians have been openly threatened. A Boxer placard has been found posted at Canton denouncing foreigners and call- ing upon the Chinese to rise and refuse to gay the indemnity of the powers, The Japan Herald announces that Mar- quis Ito will shortly make a trip to America for his health. He will spend his time on the Paclfic Coast. The Chinese papers contain long ac- counts of the floods caused by the over- flowing of the Yangtsekiang, and stories are told of the drowning of hundreds of villagers and the flooding of hundreds of rice flelds. A bloody affray is reported from a Chi- nese village fifteen miles from Kiangsi, where Protestant and Catholic converts quarreled and came to blows, with the re- sult that thirty Protestants were killed.

The oracle of law as personified in Police- man Jeremiah O’Donaghue of the Raw- son-street station has declared against it. Yesterday evening Abram Davis, a life insurance agent, called to Officer O’Dona- ghue to go to Milwaukee and Evergreen avenues in a hurry. The officer was about a block away and ran to the scene of supposed trouble. There he found Arthur Raymond kissing his newly wedded wife, formerly Miss Augusta Martini. For a minute, in his zeal to find out about the law-breaking, the policeman did not see the loving couple. Davis pointed to the crowd which was congregating and to the couple. 'The officer approached the t{wo and spoke to them. With mischief in her eyes the young woman nestled close to the paternal looking policeman and began to plead with him. | “Why, officer, teach not your lips such scorn.

Yt you promise to keep off my beat and get right away from here I will let you go,” said Policeman O'Donaghue, “but if you break that rule I will lock you up. “That was a hard job,” he said, as the crowd dispersed.

United States Appraiser John T. Dare returned yesterday after an official visit to New York City, where he had been in attendance at the annual conference of United States Appraisers. Dare, although seasoned for many years in Honolulu, where he held the position of Attorney General, felt the heat very oppressive in New York, and says he felt as though he had been living in a Hammam bath for a month. He made some inguiries into the status of the steelworkers’ strike. “I found,” said Dare, “that many of the men had expressed a willingness to return to work, but that they were kept in sub- jection to the will of President Shaffer and W. R, Hearst of the New York Jour- nal. However, I do not think from what 1 suw and heard on the trip that Hearst and Shaffer will be able to hold the suf- fering toilers much longer.” ——————————— Must Buy Their Own Ice.

Constans Leaves Constan~ tinople and Severs Rela- tions With the Porte. —_—— PARIS, Aug. 27.—A semi-official nota has been issued announcing that the Porte, not having carried out its under- takings with regard to the disputed ques- tions between the French and Ottomam Governments, M. Constans, the French Embassador, acting under instructions from the Foreign Minister of France, lefc Constantinople August 2%, the date named in his last communication to the Porte on the subject. An arrangement had been effected Au- gust 17 and its térms drafted by the Otto- man Foreign Minister, with the approval of the Sultan, who had promised M. Con- stans that the text should be handed to him August 18. M. Constans telegraphed to Paris Au- gust 19 that none of the promises had | been_fulfilled, and M. Deleasse, Minister of Foreign Affairs, on August 21 tele- M. Constans that in view of su tlagrant 2 regard of the undertakings the negotiations could no longer be con- tinued and reque: M. Constans to in- form the Porte that he had received ¢« ders to leave Constantinople. On August 23 M. Constans communicated with the Porte fixing August 26 as the date of his departure, and as the engage- ments were still unkept M. Constans left Constantinople August 2. Relations Broken Off. With the departure of M. Constans the relations between France and Turkey may be regarded as broken off. Munir the Turkish Embassador to France. been telegraphed to not return to Paris. The correspondent, was informed to-day from the best source that the departure of M. Constans from Constantinople im the circumstances is tantamount to & U re of Fre Turkish rela- Munir Bey, who is in Switzerland, s set forth in the semi- official note issued this morning, that the French Government does not desire him to return to Paris. The current affairs of the two embassies can be carried on by the charges d'affaifes, but all negotiations of a political nature will be entirely sus- pended until the Sultan yields to the French demands. The French Govern- ment holds that the Sultan has broken hig word. He had promised full payment of he long-standing indemnities to the Frenchm: amounting to 12,000,000 francs, but at the end of iast week de- clined to pay the full amount and of- fered a reduced sum, which was refused by M. Constans waited until yester- day and then departed. The Sultan made al attempt to induce him to stay. nstans had left Therapia on board autour for Stamboul, where he was to take the Orient express. A court cham- berlain arrived at Stamboul in post haste from the Sultan begging M. Constans to return to Therapia and promising that everything would be satisfactorily set- 4led. M. Constans declined to return, de- claring the time for promises was past and that it was for the Sultan to fulfill his undertakings. The French Government will take no further steps in the matter, but will wait for the Sultan to move. It is thought the Sultan will not allow the present situation to last very long. Turkey Still Evasive. CONSTANTINOPLE, Aug. 26.—The fol- lowing was the position of affairs imme- diately preceding the departure of the tions. P‘rencn Embassador, M. Constans: The Turkish Government was showing a disposition to regard the French demands as settled by the irade relating to the quays and the Albanian land seizures. The French embassy, in order to prevent a misunderstanding, wrote to Tewflk Pa- sha, the Minister of Foreign Affairs, yes- terday that\France, in addition, expected the settlement of two other claims in- cluded in the demands made August I, and that unless ti fore noon M. C hey were conceded be- tans would leave and the Turkish Embassador_ to uld receive his passports. In- sielding the Turkish Government asked for twenty-four hours’ delay and made alternative propositions, which were so unacceptable that M. Constans did not reply to them. May Dissolve the Concert. WASHINGTON, Aug. 27.—It is feared in official circles here that the withdrawal of the French Embassader from Constanti- nople marks the dfssolution of the concert of European powers under which the in- tegrity of Turk was guaranteed. By the treaty of Berlin all the great powers of Rurope subscribed to an agreement to refrain from any act that would tend to the destruction of the Ottoman empire. This action was taken to forestall what were conceived to be the designs of Rus- sia to seize on Turkish terrjtory, and Rus- sia herself was led to subecribe to the agreement by force of circumstances. Al- though several times severely strained, notably by such events as the last war between Turkey and Greece, this pact has so far endured without amendment, but it is apprehended now that if the action | of France is carried out to the extreme in- dicated in the dispatches each of the other signatory powers will feel obliged in self- protection to disregard the agreement and press upon Turkey the vast financial and other claims that have accumulated in the past quarter of a century, with a re- sult of disrupting the present Turkish Government. — SALT LAKE CITY, Aug. 27.—Henry A.
