AMERICANS CAPTURED.

A delayed consular report from American Consul Vincent in Changsha in central Hunan pro- vince to the State Department says that three American mis- aionuries Karl Beck, Lybia Koobi and Minerva, Well, were captured by bandits on September 23. The capture occurred in northern Eunan' province and the raport aaid that efforts were being-made to obtain their release. The report further indicated that con- ditions in Hunan province and other areas which have lately come under the domination of the Cantonese forces, are verging on Anarchy and the last vestiges of orderly government have dis appeared.

The Legation in Peking reports. that other Americans, recently. cause or imprisoned for one- another by the military quthöri- ties, have been released.

WU PEI-PU'S ENQUIRY:"

Peking, Oct. 6. Marahal Wu Fel-fu ordered his commanders in charge of the siege of Sianfu to ascertain and report on the health and general condition of the Catholle and Protestant, mis- sionaries in the shell-torn city.

Orders for a general siege were given only when it became evident that the fortifications were in pregnable to light artillery fire.

No word has yet been received from the two British physicians who left day before yesterday for.. Sianfu with medical supplies for. aeveral missionaries who are seriously ill as a result of their experiences.t

WHAT KARAKHAN THINKS

Vladivostok, Oct. 6-Ambassa dor Karakhan, the Russian envoy to Peking and probably the next Foreign Minister of the Soylat: Government, said in a newspaper interview published to-day that the Cantonese Army would be vic torious in the present civil war and conquer the whole of China.. He arrived here yesterday from Shanghai and is on his way to Moscow via the Trans-Siberian Railroad. He prodicted that the "people's army of the north was rapidly reorganizing itself and was anxious to free northern China "from the grip of the reac tionary forcos under Marshal Chang Tso-lin. He said that the southern armies were actuated by a determination to suppress the unequal treaties between China and foreign powers.
