Woman Looted Peking Shops.

London dispatch: The Pans correspondent of the Times gives what he declares is the reason for the disinclination of the French government to make public the reports of Gen. Voyron, who commanded the French expeditionary force in China. The correspondent asserts that, after the legations were relieved, European women went through the best shops in Peking, pillaging loads of the most precious articles. Silks, laces, Jewelry, gold and silver objects, and ivories wore among the valuables taken.
