Family Wiped Out by Cook,

·ATTACKED IN SLEEP.

Shanghai, Yesterday.. The Settlement was shocked this, morning by a terrible crime in: Avenue Rond where a Cantonese household of seven were slaughter- ed by a male cook owing to the employer's refusal to permit the cook to marry one of the servant girls.

A visit to the terrible scane shows that the cook last night, armed with a heavy meat axe, crept silently from room to room, and hacked the fifty-two year, old employer, his wife, two six-year old and three-year old sons, and two servant girls and a man ser- vant to death while, they were asleep and made no struggle.

Then the cook escaped with his sweetheart.
