surroundings in which the sec
ond body was found was sent to
the local officials and they are
unable to roach a solution of the
mystery, but it is believed that
the man killed two miles from the
roadhouse was killed first by a
gang of men, then his partner
ran for the roadhouse and had
almost reached it when he was
overtaken and shdt by the high
waymen, who tield the legs to
gether, dragged the body into the
brush, rifled I he pockets, over
looking the wad of bills in his
shirt, and rushed away, fearing to
be discovered by the proprietor
of the roadhouse or by passers
by.

CAPTIVES BEING
MALTREATED
Chinese Bandits Kill Foreigner
Because Ransom Asked Was
Not Phid.
Peking, Oct. d.—The Chinese
bandits who captured Ihe town of
Tsaoyaug and took the American
and Norwegian missionaries
prisoners have shown that they
are in earnest in their demands
for a ransom for tile foreigners.
They have killed one of the
ctilidren of a missionary and all
I tie foreigners are being subject
ed to indignities and maltreated.
The foreigners of this city want
lo open negotiations with Ihe
robbers when the missionaries
were taken prisoners lo secure
their release by the payment of
tile money asked by the bandits.
They deferred out of respect to
the wishes of the government of
ficials, who expressed the fear
that to do so would make every
foreigner in the interior an ob
ject of capture by the bandits.
It is believed that the only way
in which the lives of the mission
aries can be saved ,is (for the
ransom to lie paid and li t the
government of the republic look
to the punishment of the rob
bei's afterwards. l*he mission
ary societies have notified I lie
American and European govern
ments of the capture and kill
ing of the missionaries.
