NEW YORK. Oct. 26 - Disturbances
similar to those which preceded the'

over northern China according IcTr
statement received by the Joint Cen-
tenary Committee of the. Methodist
Episcopal Church from Rev. O. It-
Davis of Ihe Tientsin Mission
"Tho countryside In the Tsunhua
district hs been terrorised by secret
conspirators who go about at night
demanding money from the villagers
and threatening Christians' declared
Mr Davis -Leaders of iho Boxer up-
rising In 1900 havo returned from ox
He and nre directing the new ntove-
tnent rhnrch membership has drop-
ped very markedly because the Chi

Bcrvlces
'Though there are those who be-
llcvp lhat this new wave of terrorism
Is part of a plot to restore the em-
pire the actions of the conspirators
ate suspiciously like those which pre-
ceded the Doxcr uprising it Is Un-
safe for anyone to be abroad from
sunset until dawn. The local auth-
entic arc welt aware of the growing
movement but are afraid to assert
themselves.
General contusion and unrest pre-
vail throughout this helpless disturb-
ed land (ho failure of the northern
wheat crop having ndded to tho uni-
versal discontent. Robberies and
murder tako place on tho highway
in broad daylight without any Inter-

Chinese Repnbllc Is on par with Ihe
llolehovlkl government In Russia. Any
day mny see another revolution."
