The Foreign Teacher Escapes, but Four of the Native Scholars Are Wounded, “DRIVE QUT THE DEVILS.” With This Cry the Native Populace of Foo-Chow Are Parading the Public Streets. HONG KONG, Aug. 22.—Another out- rage has been committed upon missioh- aries near Foo-Chow. The American mission has been at- tacked by a large and infuriated mob armed with various weapons. The chapel and school-house of the mission were wrecked, and four of the native scholars were wounded, The for- eign teacher, however, escaped. A strong antl-foreign local feeling prevails at Foo-Chow, and it is spread- Ing among the populace, who are parad- Ing the public thoroughrares with ie of: “Drive out the foreign devils." LONDON, Aug. 2.—A despatch to The Times from Hong Kong this after- noon confirms the despatch from Hong Kong announcing the attack upon the American miss'on near Foo-Chow and a dangerous state of the populace of that city. According to The Times despatch the American school was situated just out- side of the West Gate of Foo-Chow. The despatch adds “The situation at Ku-Cheng Is changed. Capt. John 8, Newell, of the United States cruser Detroit, and Dr. Hart haye gone there from Foo-Chow. More anti-foreign placards are being distributed at Canton.” WASHINGTON, Aug. 22.—Acting Sec- retary McAdoo has been in constant communication with Minister Denby re- garding the investigation of the riots at Ku-Cheng, and he feels assured that everything possible Is being done by our representatives to secure a complete report of all the facts. Consul-General Jernigan, in a cable to the State Department, said that the American and British representatives had been excluded from the hearing. Minister Denby was communicated with at once and requested to see that the American representative was ad- mitted, Mr. McAdoo says that it 1s quite probable the local authorities and the officials who are conducting the Ku- Cheng investigation were not properly advised or informed as to the wishes of the Government at Pekin. It 1s belleved that when they are so advised the American and British offi- clals will be admitted to the investiga- tions without further delay. The Chinese Legation here had not been apprised of the latest attack upon American missions. The Minister ex- pressed regret at the occurrence. It is freely admitted at the Legation that in the present state of feeling in China, growing out of the ignorance and prejudices of the nati and es- pecially because of the recent war, all foreigners in the interior of China are in more or less danger. ‘The hope is expressed at the Legation that the missionaries will recognize this #tate of things and will seek the treaty ports until the exeltement subsides and normal conditions are restored, The utmost confidence is expressed at the Legation of the intention of th Chinese Amperial Government to pro- tect the Christian missions as far as possible, and the last elict from the Emperor issued within the past ten days, is quoted as evidence of this in- tention. A quite full synopsis of this document has been received by cable at the Le- gation. It ts entirely in the interest of the Christians, and is directed espectal- ly to the high Chinese officials, ‘They are asked to see that the lives and property of all Christians, both foreign and native, are protected at ail times, un- “The World” on Aug. 8 printed the as the Vegetarians attacked the mission tere, murdering nine English and wounding one American missionary.

(Destroyed by fire early this morning DEVOURED BY FLAMES posuere ee Milwaukee Visited by Anothor Big Conflagration. Warehouses and About 50 Freight Cars Destroyed. Steamers Moved Out Into the River to Escape the Flam MILWAUKEE, Aug. 22.—A fire, which threatened to make havoc equal to that wrought in the Third Ward three years ago, broke out at 1 o'clock this after- noon In the warehouse of the Union Steamboat Company, on the Menominee River, A thirty-mile wind was blow- ing, and the flames spread with such! rapidity that there was no telling where they would stop. ‘The fire originated on the dock of the | Union Company, at the River and Reed street bridge, and Is supposed to have been caused by a spark from a passing steamer, It burned underneath the dock planks at a spot about midway between the east and weat ends of the warehouse, and gained such a start before it was discovered that it involved the whole of the great freight-shed with incredible rapidity. The building was constructed entirely of wood, and is it burned it belched smoke like a volcano, Within a few minutes the flames had burst through the roof and caught to a row of St. Paul freixht cars near the old building. ‘The Union Steamboat Co.'s bullding was 60 feet ni length, and in It were thousands of tons of freight, all of which were destroyed with the building, which was in ashes in leas than half an hour. Over 600 freight cars belong to the St. Paul Co., and in process of being loaded or ready to ship, were soon en- veloped in flames, the fire jumping from one bullding to the line of cars to an- other so rapidly that the company's employees did not have time to remove any of them out of the line of the fire, which was swept before the wind from the southwest at a lively rate. Within half an hour after the fire broke out in the Steamboat freight- house, the Wisconsin Central freight- house, just north of the river and 390 feet in length, was totally destroyed. This, ke the others, was filled with freight and a large number of the company's cars, standing near at the ume, were destroyed. Within a few minuces ofter the freight cars began burning, fire broke forth from the cupolas of the oll and grease establishment of H. J.
