FRESH CHINESE TROUBLE..
Boxers Burn Villages LI Almost Unnoticed
Russians Massacre .
Special to Journal.
Washington, September 21 Fresh
disorder of the Boxers has broken out
near Canton, China. Several villages
were destroyed. Several beaelged mis
sionaries escaped. The Chinese troops
could do nothinr against them. The al
lies have sent a force to the scene of the
disturbance.
LI Hung Chang is at Tako. He has at
tracted little attention. Only the Rus
sian and Japanese officers called upon
him.
Several of the powers concur in Ger
many's note to China, Uermauy believes
that all will concur in the plan proposed.
Detailed reports show that the Rus
sian troops massacred twelve thousand
C bines at Blagoneapel. Not one China
man escaped.
War Is again threatened In China.
Just when everybody thought that ' pro
gress was being made toward the open
ing of negotiations between the powers
and China for a peaceable settlement,
the Emperor of Germany throws a bomb
Into the council by demanding tbat the
hlnese officials responsible for the
attacks upon foreigners be pnnished be
fore negotiations are opened. If that
demand Is backed by the powers It mesas
war, as China cannot possibly comply
with It The nature of the answer sent
by this governmeht to Germany's request
for endorsement of the demand Is not
known, but It is known that this govern
ment will not participate ia a war on
Chlaa.
The Chinese Minister to lbs United
Stales I so worked up over -Germany's
d-raund that he has dropped Lit asual
diplomatic reticence and talks with
much freedom of IC . Among other
things, be said: "I am Indeed surprised
at this action of the German govern

THE COAL STRIKE.
Matters Assume a Worse Aspect. State
ment of Wages.
Special io Journal.
Philadelphia, Pa., September 21
There appears to be no protection furn
ished for the Pennsylvania coal miners
who have not struck. The sheriffs of the
counties In which the strikers are locat
ed are afraid to Interfere with the strik
ers. The railways are being crippled in
their work, and the factories are getting
short of coal. There is a plan being
formed to tie up all the coal carrying
railways in order to aid the strikers.
Mdb violence hat begun to transform
the mining region into a scene of wild
disorder. Hundreds of foreigners who
are attempting to go to work have been
attacked.
The operators maintain that they will
not recognlxe.the miners' organization,
though in many Instances they would
be willing to arbitrate with their own
men.
The Pennsylvania Coal Company has
Issued Its statement showing by a re
sume of Its comptroller's reports that
average wage of miners and laborers In
all of their twenty-seven collieries, foi
the month of August, was respectively
$8.80 and $1.67 per day and that twenty
days were worked.
