PUKING. March 4. The city was
comparatively calm today as thu result
of the preaenco of 3,000 foreign soldiers.
Nearly all of tho fires hud been ex
tinguished or had burned out, and llttlii
looting -was reported. Tho mutineers
seem to have been awed by the arrival
of moro foreign troopa, and tho an
nouncement that four British regiments
are on their way hero from Hongkong.
Tho authorities claim that nearly all
of the mutineers who have not left the
city -with their loot are being herded
In tho barracks. Scores of suspecfti
wero summarily executed today, but It
was noticeable that few of tho victims
wero soldiers. A report was circulated
that the uctual mutineers had been
promised Immunity If they would not
attempt any moro mutiny.
Two hundred American troops, com
manded by Major Arrowsmlth, arrived
hero today, and pitched camp around
tho United States legation. Several
companies from the Philippines will bo
ordered hero unless tho authorities
noon show they aro ablo to control
the situation.
Five, thousand people have been killed
hero since the outbreak of tho mutiny,
according to figures given out by Yuan
Shi Knl today. The property los3 will
amount to moro than $15,000,000.,
Barricade Foreign
Part of Tientsin
Against Looters
TIENTSIN. March 4. Fearing that
the mutiny would take on an antl-for-,elgri
character, residents of the foreign
quarter today barricaded their houses
and prepared for a siege. Armed civil
ians patrolled the" streets, and no natlv3
were permitted to enter.
News thnt 5,000 Japanese ttoops had
been ordered here has had a bad effect
on the Chinese, who believe thut In
tervention Is Imminent, and aie dete!
mlncd to secure all the loot possible
while the city Is In their power.
Drunken Ohlnosa soldiers continued to
despoil the native quarters today. They
kept up a constant lire to Intimidate
the residents and looted una burn-M

mandeered trains. Indications were that
they would tlnd little booty unless they

"Perhaps jou mean to say that

"Yes, they did," said Lipson.

Peace Reigns at

Strikers Loyal
IAWUKNCE, Mass., March 4.-Thero
was an utter absence of the much
feared disorder when tho mills opened
for work today. Although nearly every
individual striker of the Industrial
Workers of the World had followed the
orders of the leaders and were on picket
duty, Importuning tho other workers
not to return, they were most peace
ful In their nttltude.
Consequently, the big guard and po
lice and military on dut In the vicin
ity, of tho mills did not 'interfere. The
expected break in the ranks of the
StrfltfM'K. fnmonnt lit. (hn v.m ,...-
did not appear. Instead It was asserted
that fewer workers are back at the
i looms than at any time since the open-
inn- nf flirt utfllsn
Two Italians were arrested duilng
the morning, but they were released
when taken to police headquarters.
Mill agonts, explaining the failure, of
their former employes to (lock back to
work, said they had been scaied bv
the reports that there would bo much
violence, and that many would return
tomorrow. On the other hand, the
strike leaders said their ianke were In
tact, nnd they would surely bo sug-in-nted
by deflections from those who
went back today.

BERLIN, March 4. Tho government
today ordered the legation guards at

physician, had been killed by the looters
at Tientsin was received at the foreign

regretted, but It wns announced that

the strikers claim was an attempt to

Department Awaits
Return of Neill
From Lawrence
Di. Charles P. Nclll, Commissioner of
Labor, may return any day this week
from Lawrence, Mahs., bringing with
him a repot t on industilal conditions in
the strike-afflicted mill town, accord
lug to a statement this morning in the
oriice of Secretary Nagcl, of the De
partment of Commerce nnd Labor. It
Is also said that Dr. Nclll will (tin Jii
toport with tho Secretary and further
disposition of it will depend on Mr
Kegel's pleasure.
It Is regarded as likely that Secretary
Nagel will at once give the report out
for publication, because a request from
Congress for tho same would follow
any delay according to ih" statement of
union labor n ember- of Congress.
There Is not likely to bo any disposi
tion, howcvci, on the pait or the De
p.irtmeit of Commerce and Labor to
hold up tin: icpoit, nccoiding to the
same Congressmen.
Considerable speculation exists In the
department as to what the report will
cover. It is universally assumed that
Dr. Nelll will cover completely such
jvestlons as the rate of pay of textile
mill workeis and tho cost of living in
Lawrence. Many believe that tho re
port will go farther and discuss the
questions acutely at issue In tho strike,
and its conduct, even though theso
questions are burning ones.

terday nnd last night. In tho first en
gagement thirty-five were killed.
The first battlo lasted nearly four
hours. Villa arrived on the outsklits
of Chihuahua with 700 -federal troops at
daylight, and sent an officer to demand
that Orozco turn tho city over to him.
Oiozco icfused, and Villa at once opened
his attack.
Villa pressed tho garrison hard, hut
after ho had been driven back re
peatedly, with heavy loss, ho with
drew his troops Into tho open coun
try and left Orozco in complete con
trol for the tlmo being.
Meanwhile, trouble Is feared over
the action ot the rebel leaders, Cainpa

After the priest hnd preached In tho
Guadeloupe mission at Juarez yester
day, tho rebels arrested hlin and de

priest sent for Mayor ICelly, Sheriff
Edwards and Chief of Police Davis,

when Kelly compromised tho matter
bv paying $100 personally to Campa.
Americans in Chihuahua consist
principally of men, tho women and
children having been sent out nlready.
Flvo hundred Vasqulstas remain In

Six Vasqulstas soldiers, hcitvlly
armed, who attempted to cross to the
