DEATH SENTENCES APPROVED rhree CblMit Officials Who Were Bespoa slble f or the Huniert of Cbrletlaa Matt gaffer the Desvtb Penalty. Peking Nov. 6. Field Marshal Count Von Waldersee has confirmed the sen tence of death passed by the interna tional commission at Pao Ting- Fu on the sub-gOTerrior of that city, the provincial treasurer and the judge, for their complicity "in the murder of missionaries and Chinese converts. This fact causes the greatest satis faction among the foreigners here, who are convinced that the, leniency with which, .in their, view, the guilty Chinese have hitherto been treated was not only totally undeserved but mischievous. The massacres at Pao Ting Fu were as atrocious as the most horrible that have been recorded and the sentence is regarded as most de served. Nevertheless, it is believed that some of the ministers brought pressure to bear on Count Von Wal dersee not to confirm it on the ground that if it were carried out it would be likely to frighten the emperor and prevent his return to Pekin.
