ANTI-FOREIGN PLACARDS AT
FATSHAN.
Prompt Astion or French Consul
We learn from native sources that thanks to the vigilance of the Roman Cath. alics in Fatahan and the vary prorapt action of the French Consul in Canton, M. Hardouin, a very serious attempt to make trouble has boon nipped in the bud. Last moon, Fatahan was placarded in any places with an anonymous sheet coolly say ing that the local magistrate was to be killed, the chapole barned and the foreign housos pulled down. This business was brought to the notice of the Viceroy by the French. His Excellency at once com municated with the Nauhoi magistrate, who put out a proclamation. From this official document, it is apparent that the threatened disturbance was deliberately planned by an organization having a follow. ing of over one thousand members. The leader of this baud is known, and also the man who was finsuing the diabolical
