ATROCITIES.

FATE OF CI;M. MISSION. ARIES.

[UNITED PRESS.

The 'fate of the two "British missionaries, Mr. and Mrs. Forteous and the American, Miss Gemmell, of the China Inland Mission, who are now in the hands of a Kiangsi bandit gang, is causing grave anxiety, here, as latest telegrams received by the Mission from Changsha intimate that the foreign captivites have been carried into the mountains and that nothing has been heard from them. where the missionaries were cap tured, is on the border between Kinngsi and Hunan provinces, and its entire neighbourhood is being infested with bandits and com- munists who are followers of the two notorious Chinese Bolshevik leaders, Chu and Mo.

Yuanchow

Details received from Changsha with regard to the outrage reveal that the outlaws occupied Yuanchow for fully four days, during which they carried out an orgy of loot- ing and killing. The magistrate, among other Government officials, was made prisoner and burned in oil while scores of others were tor- tured to death, in other manners equally cruel. The Chinese pastor, the Rev. Eoyang, together wijth the Principal of the leading High School of the district, were put to death. Practically all the shops were looted and not, a few shop- keepers were ruthlessly slain. When the gang evacuated the city, the local people were forced to pay 89,000 to them as evacuation and travelling expensca,"

In both Kiangsi and Honan the bandit situation has at present be- come out of control. ́ ́ ́Although. officially a bandit suppression com- paign has been launched, bandita are scattered in many placca, and red terrorism rapidly reviving in many towns. At Liling and Tipien in Hunan, the Spirit Soldiers are again rampant and are worry- ing the Provincial Authorities. In Kiangsi where missionary kidnan." pings and killings, have repeatedly occurred during the last few weeks, the Chu-Mo Communists are & grow- "ing menace to peaco.
