YORK, Aug. 8.—The World this

worniiig publishes the following special cable from Foo-Chow, China: Dr. J. J. Gregory, an American missionary who escaped from Ku-Cheng, gives the following aooouut of the massacre tlicro: "At 1:2:30 p.m., on Thursday, Aug. 1, a native Christian rushed into my study, saying that several of the foreign ladies at Hwasang, a mountain resort about 12 miles from the city of KuCheng, had been killed taat morning and rliat two had been burned. "Fifteen minutes later a note irom Mr. Phillips confirmed this. He wrote that five ladies were dead, the Stewards were missing and that four persons were seriously wounded. He expressed the hope that I was now on my way to Hwasang. "I immediately went on to the Yamen, where hundreds of excited natives had already gathered and requested the district magistrate, Wong, to send some soldiers at once to Hwasang to protect those still living. "In half an hour the magistrate went to Hwasang under an escort of about 00 soldiers. "At -Jt p. m. I left Ku-Cheng city under an escort of 13 soldiers, arriving at Hwasang at S p. in. to find that nine adults, all British subjects, had been murdered and that all those still alive at Hwasang, eight only, had been more or less severely injured, excepting Mr. Phillips, who had arrived there only two or three days before, and was lodging at a native house some distance from the English cottages. "I was delayed in leaving Ku-Che:ig, owing to the fact that the coolies refused to carry chairs. "On my arrival I set to work to make the injured as comfortable as possible. "Miss Codrington received a sword cut extending from the left angle of her mouth diagonally outward and downward seyen inches long, completely dividing the lower lip and exposing the interior maxilliary bones one cut on the crown three inches in length and quite down to the inner table of the skull one cut across the nose beneath the right eye five inches long, and another three inches long on the right side of the neck. The last two were skin wounds only. There were also two contusions on the right arm and a deep punctured wound on the outside of the right thigh. Her condition is serious. "Miss Mabel C. Hartford of the Methodist mission, the only American residing in Hwasang at the time, was living in a small native house some 20 rods from the English cottages, was attacked by one assassin armed with a trident. She received a slight out in the lobe of the right car, was thrown to tiie ground and beaten about the lower extremities and the body. While the murderer was engaged in this attack a servant grappled with the assailant, and during the struggle Miss Hartford

Kathleen Stewart, 11 years old, received several slight wounds and bruises about the face and the lower extremities. They are not serious.

Herbert Stewart, 6-year-old, received a deep wound on the right side of the neck, four inches long, one ou the crown which ciiipped the external table of the skuli one on the back of the head four inches long, clearing tbe.skull and exposin0 the brain a circular scalp wound oil the left side of the hc nl, two and a half inches in diameter, a small punctured wound in the inferior part of the chest and a stab in the back. He d.ed of the injuries 30 hours later oil the Suikow. 3- "Evan Stewart, 6 years old, was stabbed in the left thigh, received sev- I eral bruises and scratches on the head

I and body. His condition is not serious, "Baby Stewart, 13 months old, lias a severe injury to the eye, small pene- I trating wound in the left, frontal region, which enters the cranial cavity, and several severe bruises on the head and body. Injuries will also probably prove fatal. "All wounds were apparently made by swords and spears. Uf tiie.-e killed outright Mr. and Mrs. Stewarr, Nellie I Saunders and Lena Pillow an Irish nuise were almost wholly incinerated I in the burned house. In all probability they were murdered before the house I burned. 'Hesise Newcomb was cut on the lett cheek and laft hand, probably by a spear, and was thrown over a steep embankment, where they left the bodj\ I failed to find any serious wounds on the body of Miss Stewart. I am inclined to think she died from shock. This opinion is sustained by Miss Codrington's report to me. Miss Gordon received a deep spear wound in the face, another in the neck and one in the right side of the head. "Topsy Saunders' death was caused by a spear wound on the right side of the head, the weapon entering the brain. "The last three bodies were lying in one heap. Apparently no postmortem mutilation had been attempted. "This frightful massacre was done by members of the secret society known us the Vegetarians, who have been causing much trouble alike to Christian and heathen in and around Ku-Cheng City. "From various reports of those who saw the attack, I believe that about 80 meii were engaged. They were armed with soears and swords and seemed strongly organized under one chief leader." "The attack came like a thunderbolt out of a clear sky, not one of the victims having the slightest intimation of the intention to assault them. Thirty minutes from the time the onslaught commenced not a single Vegetarian was to be seen near the scene of tne massacre.

A'-tor urgent pleading and finally corn*

escaped. "Miss Hellis remained hidden until all was over. Her nervous system sustained a serious injury. 'Mildred Stewart, aged 12 years, receivod a wound on the outside of her right kuee joint six inches long, expos- I ing tii joint, and tAvo punctured wounds, one on the left leg and one on rlie left foot. Her condition is serious.

aaandin^rl vfas able to leave Hwasatig fit 3 p. m. By traveling all that night 1 nv^r-iiged to reach Suikow. "At 8 30 on the morning of Aug. 3 there was the saddest, most appalling procession ever formed in China. The magistrate had sent runners to Suikow by our orders and had impressed four native boats for us. We lett for FooChow in the afternoon. On the morning of the 4tli we met a steam launch taking the sub-prefect to Suikow. I boarded her and insisted on the launch towing our boats to Foo-Chow, it being necessary to arrive there as soon as possible, since the effect of the extreme heat was proving serious. "We were welcomed by and our hearts were devoutly thankful to United States Consul Hixson, for his prompt action and successful efforts in stviriii^ and immediately dispatching a rt*.uing party, the presence of which gre.u-lv relieved our fatigue and sufferjngs 'i^ the remainder of the journey ro oChow. At noon we met Mr. (xibb.s who kindly came in a houseboat to meet us, bringing more supplies. About 1:30 p. in. he greeted us and cheered us. We arrived at the consulate on the jetty at Foo-Chow, where Consul Hixson and a large party of friends soon had the injured comfortably resting in clean beds. "When the question is raised as to the cause of the terrible massacre one need have little doubt that the Vegetarian were the active participants, and that the local and provincial authorities were directly implicated in the crime seems certain, for the society has been strong around Ku-Cheng for two years, and is increasing. The members have been growing bolder in their threats and acts as the months have passed. Early in July last several hundred attacked a village near Ku-Cheng and killed and wounded several natives not Christians. MSt"Tliis never punished viceroy sent to Ku-Cheng small forces of 200 solders to assist the iocal authorities in settling with several thousand determined savages. It was a mere farce and the local officers were unable to do anything, but they criminally failed to promptly demand reinforcements from the viceroy. £"It is obvious to all who looked at the matter- much that the Chinese has been encouraged to continue taking foreigners' property in hisjprovince. Just as long as the foreign powers are satisfied with such treatment of this wanton barbarious destruction of life, just so long will China fail to govern her people."

Obtaining the Murderers' Names.

SHANGHAI, Aug. 8.—J. Courtney Hixson, United States consul at Foo-Chow, in the Corea consular inquiry, on the spot obtained the names of 50 natives implicated in the Ku-Cheng massacre, including the leaders and some of the actual murderers. He also obtained proof that the Chinese chief was brewing several tfays prior to the massacre. Not a single Chinese official attended the funerals of the victims.

Reports are arriving daily from almost every province of horrible official persecution of native Christians and the molestation and insults to which foreigners in the interior are subjected.

The Outrages Continue.

HONG-KONG, Aug. S.—The British and American missions at Fat-Shan, near Canton, were attacked yesterday afternoon by a large and infuriated mob. The hospitals were demolished. The missonaries fled to Sha-Meen, others remaining. A Chinese gunboat has been dispatched to quell the riot.

It is reported that all the mission at Kwan-Lung will be destroyed and the missionaries driven to the treaty ports. I The Vegetarians are lv.y)0 strong and well armed and organize?? and able to I withstand the Chinese troops.

WRECK IN NEW MEXICO.

One Person Killed siiitl Three or Four Seriously Wounded.

AuiUQUKiiQUK, N. M., Aug. S.—One person was killed and three or four seriously injured by a wreck on the Atlantic and Pacific railway near Mitchell, a way station 125 miles west of this city, yesterday afternoon.

The man who lost his life was Rev. George Wheeler, place of residence unknown. The names of the injured could not be learned by the officials of the road, as telegraph communication with Mitchell is closed and only meager particulars are obtainable.

That more persons were not killed or injured is considered a miracle, as the reports are to the effect that the baggage car, the day coach and the tourist sleeper were all derailed and ditched.

An Attempt to Settle the Spring Valley Trouble.

PEACE FINALLY WAS DECLARED.

Many of the 3Iiners Will Not A^ree to the

Tiirms and It Now Remains to Ite seen if

Trouble Will Follow the Return of the

Negroes—A Few Days Will Decide the

Question.

SI'KING VALLEY, Ills., Aug. 8.—State troops, for the present at least, will not be ordered to this turbulent town. Peace has been declared. This was brought about through the efforts of Colonel Hu^i E. Bayle, assistant adjutant general, sent here by Governor Altgeld. Colonel Bayle reached here at 1 o'clock yesterday. He was met. at the hotel by Sheriff Clark, Judge Trimble and other officials and prominent aitizens. A short, conference was held, in winch Colonel Bayle outlined the policy of Governor Altgeld regarding the present trouble. "Governor Altgeld sent me here," said Colonel Bayle, "to investigate the trouble and ascertain where the blame lies. He also instructed me to bring about a settlement if possible without the aid of troops. The governor told me that all American citizens, regardless of color or race, were to be protected. If upon investigation I lind that the local authorities are unable or unwilling to maintain law and order then troops will be sent here. Law and order must be enforced at any cost."

Colonel Bayle was informed by Sheriff Clark, Superintendenr Daizeli an.i other citizens, miners And public cers that no one had as yet been All admitted, however, tlnu 100 citizens, all colored, had been driven iro-n their homes by a mob composed of I:,..ians, Poles, Bavarians and Hungarian miners. Many shots were fired and some of the colored miners were wounded and brutally beaten. The negroes, men, women and children, had been assailed and ruthlessly driven from their homes and forced to go to Seatonville. As to this outrage, all were agreed but that any one had been killed, or fatally wounded, both coal company officials, miners and officers of the law, denied. Colonel Bayle was then informed that the miners were to hold a massmeeting on the public square at 3 o'clock, at which the following resolutions were to be presented for adoption:

WHEREAS, A race conflict has taken place in this city within the last few days, resulting in no loss of life but in serious hardship and inconvenience ro a considerable suction of this community.

RESOLVED, That we, the miners of Spring Valley, in massmeeting assembled, declare it to be our belief that all men, regardless of race, color or creed, are bom with the me equal rights aud should enjoy the same opportunities in the pursuit of life and happiness.

RESOLVED, That wo denounce any attempt at the suppressing of these rights as unjust and barbarous, and pledge ourselves to maintain law and order HO far as lies in our power.

RESOLVED, That we are ready now to resume work providing the Spring Valley Coal company is ready to start their mines.

RESOLVED, That we denounce lying reports, misrepresenting this city, sent to the Chicago papers by one Bailey of Princeton. These dispatches in tin main are infamous, distorted and exaggerated beyond human reasoning. In denouncing these atrocious misrepresentations, we hold as accountable the publishers of the Chicago press, who could easily have informed themselves as to the actual truth of the situation.

At the appointed hour about 000 miners a.sst_Miolud in the public square at a massmeeting. James llaney presided and W. H. Jones acted as secretary. It was a curious gathering. I Every nation in eastern and southern

Europe was represented. Every motion that was made and every speecli had to be repeated at least six tim-s and each time in a different language,

When the resolutions had been read in various languages, Chairman Haney I asked if anyone desired to speak, in response came numerous inquiries as to whether the negroes would come bar,: if the resolutions were adopted. To these inquiries Chairman Haney replied that the law must take its course and peace be preserved. This did not seem to meet with general approval, I and many left the meeting. An length the chairman put the question. The vote was about a tie, but the chairman declared it carried. The meeting then I adjourned.

When the meeting adjourned those who had been instrumental in calling it I met at the Spring Valley hotel with Colonel Bayle. the county officials and representatives of the coal coinpany. Most of the questions were proposed by I James O'Connor, president of the state miners' union. It was during this questioning that it was developed that Manager Dalzell would willingly take back all miners who had quit work save those who had committed crimes. Dalzell explained that the colored men who had been driven from the mine were anxious to come back. They had sent word to this effect. "I replied," he continued, "that if they wanted to come back they could do so. Under this resolution was that not right?" "It was," said O'Connor, "only you must not hold us all responsible if some of them should be stabbed in the back.''

O'Connor requested Dalzell to wait two or three days after the mines started before he asked colored miners to return. Dalzell said that lie would ask no one to come to work, but that if colored miners asked for work he would take them at once. He then turned to Mayor Delmagro aud said: "Are you ready to protect them?"

The mayor replied indirectly that he would do the best he could. This was satisfactory to Dalzell, and lie concluded by informing all present that he was satisfied with the resolutions and conference, and that he would advise the colored people who had been driven out that they could come back. The representatives of the miners said they were satisfied, and Colonel Bayle said he was pleased to see an amicable settlement. The meeting then adjourned.

Notwithstanding the miners' resolution it is generally believed that if the negroes return to work there will be trouble

HATCH IS HOLMES.

A Night Clerk of the Grand Hotel"In Chi* CH|O

Tells His Story.

CHICAGO, Aug. 8.—F. B. Little, night clerk of the Grand hotel, thinks he has solved the mystery of Holmes' female companion from St. Louis to Toronto, when the Pietzel children were taken to the Canadian city. Mr. Little has identified pictures of Mrs. Pietzel as the woman who. with Holmes and two little girls, occupied two rooms at the West End hotel on the 8th of last October.

At that time Little was night clerk at the West End. He says that Holmes, a woman of about 88 and two girls, entered the hotel, and Holmes asked for two rooms, the doors of one which were to be tightly locked during his stay. The two girls were kept close prisoners, and whenever they escaped into the hallway they were dragged back into the room as though their very existence should be kept a secret.

Little recognized the Pietzel children, from photograuhs, but it was not until he had studied a number of pictures that he positively identified Holmes. When shown a number of pictures of women in the case, lie pointed to one of Mrs. Piotzel's and said: "Tiiat is the woman who was at the hotel last fall."

If Little is not- mistaken in his identification the mysterious Hatch is Holmes after all.
