So far as is known, no foreign resident lost his life, The of Hu-Nan province, Wou Tchung-Siu, and his son were killed and 'several othqr government officials fled. Even yet a section of the city is in flames.

Six thousand foreign drilled soldiers are stationed here, and a few these protected the Governor's house for a time, but soon all joined the rioters. The riots-'begun on April 13, when the famine sufferers looted the rice shops. A captain of police was wounded while -trying to restore order, but thousands crowded around him and his assistants, and he was obliged to flee to the yameu. The rioters followed him there and besieged the-place'all night The following day the''disturbances became anti-foreign, this" being a strong anti-foreign province," The China Inland Mission and the Norwegian and Catholic missions were burned. The other missions were destroyed on April 15, The missionaries attached to the American Episcopalian Missionary Alliance, the United Evangelical Church and the Wes- leyari and Yale missions, numbering forty-one in all, took refuge in boats, They lost all of their effects.

The destruction of all foreign property, including the Japanese consulate and the British warehouses followed. The fate of the Standard Oil Company's newly erected tanks is unknown.

They fled from the city, and it is reported' that three of them, while to Hankow in junk without lights, were -run down by the British gunboat Thistle and drowned. Another report states that the men drowned were Americans, but there is no confirmation of this. The chief cause of the" rioting was the scarcity and high-price of rice, For a long time past there has been an anti- foreign propaganda carried on, and conditions were such that any opportunity that arose from whatever cause supplied the excuse 'for demonstrating the anti- foreign s'entlnient. According to one report the, governor of Hu-Nan committed suicide after notifying the Chinese gov-' ernment that he was responsible for the trouble. The latest advices regarding the situation throughout the district are far from encouraging.
