The Yemen Ministers, on account of the riots against the freign religious orders that have oc curred lathe various provinces, request the Throne to issue stringent orders to the Governors General and Governors to take immediate and urgent measures to restore quiet to the land and to pra vent fatore disturbances. The memorialists hear- ing, in the first part of the 4th moon, that churches in Wuhu were destroyed, at once wired to the High Superintendent of Nanyang to despatch gunboats to suppress the riots and to give protec tion to the foreigners; at the same time to send deputies to make juvestigations and settle the cases. Then at the same time, there were anonymous placards posted and rumours spread about Shanghai, Nanking, and other places. We also desired the Provincial authorities to take great care and to devise precautionary measures Afterwards a telegraphic message was received from the Nanyang Superintendent and the Anhui Governor to the effect that the trouble at Wuly took its origin from rumours that female doctors belonging to fareiga religious orders were stealing children after drugging them that the suspicions of the people could not be explained away; that a crowd gathered to make trouble; that upon his churches were bumi and destroyed; that two rioters were executed and their heads placed an exhibition, and that the place has settled down to its usual quiet. Not long after, however; churches in Tanyang and in Wusuch, in Hupeb, were set on fire and polled down, with the murder of two foreignen in the latter place. The details have not been reported. Evil characters were causing trouble in Nanking and. Kinklang, but their attempts were fruarated and they were dispersed by the Government soldiers who were keeping watch and gave protection. If these disturbances continue the hearts of both natives and foreigners will be full of apprehension and distruit. The
