An extrmordinary discovery has boon mado in connection with the Chinese employed at the Military Exhibition at Barl's Court, and the management have had much difficulty with the Colestials im consequence. It seems, from the reports in the home papers, that on July 4th, about an hour before the spectacle commenced, @ number of the Chinamen broke into open rovolt and absolutely refused to appear in the piece. The management promptly sent for the interpreter to know the reason of the’ mutiny, but at first he professed himself utterly at oloss to account for it. Ordered to make inquiries, he camo back a little. later and said. that the mutineers, 17 in numbor, would only appear on the condition that they could take the characters of Boxers. They would not go on.as Legation servants or Chi- nes. Imperisl troops, and they further de- minded’ various altorations in the scone which depicts the consecration of the Boxer basinors should'be made, As the spectacle could not proceed ‘without them, steps were taken to mest their wishes, and: the-show came off as usual, When it was over, # Chinaman known as John Wing,.who speaks s little English, prisentes himself, before the directors aud femanded his’ passage-inoney to China on the ground thet his life .was in danger. He explained: that the .17 men who had refused to ayipear were genuine “ Boxers ” who had actually taken part in the risinga and mas. ‘sucros im and astound Peking. ‘Two Boxers of importance, Ah-Foo and tlu- Wong, soldicrs of the Chinese camp in tho exhibition, were responsible foy tho revglt, as they bad impressed upon -their comzades that if they appeared in opposition to tho Boxer flags, even as actors, ious consequences to both soul and body, pu and the collision of two destroyers. 4,~— Complete absence of fiect ouxiliaries of ali kinds) No provision bas been made for— hospital ships, repairing ships, srozen meat store, mother slups for destroyers, efficient colliers, telegraph ships. 5.—Owing to the Inck’ of provision. no adequate provision hss been made for the first essentials of efficient fighting, ¢7.: Telescopic sights, gyroscopes, smokelevs powder for the 13-5-in. guns, armour-piercing shells, breveh- loading field guns, wireless telegraphy.

They had disc that he, John Wing, had acted as a spy for the foreigners in tho Chinese troubles, and his ont chance for life was to get away. The man's story was at first laughed at, but ho insisted on its truth, and in-order to avoid any'chance of trouble he was provided with money and at onoo sent away as hedesired. Steps were thon taken to tind out what part these newly discovered Boxers really played in the Chinese crisis. Beyond a sullen acknowledgment that they were sworn members of “The Righteous Harmony of Fists,” aud had certain mystic marks on their arma, nothing at first conld be got from the Chinamen, and only by degrees, when they became assured that they were not ‘likely to be handed over for punishment, did they Tet ont a few facts about themselves. ‘From the stories they told it has been gathered that Hu-Wong, 2. man.of excep. tionally fine pbysigne fora.
