Throughout our interview he was quiet-toned. cordial. friendly. grim. “Taking a seat at my left. he ex- plained that his men were not ban- dits but had been deprived of their livelih'oods- when they. woro dismissed as soldiers. unpaid. They determined on the wholesale kidnapping of for- eigners to force Peking to re-enroil them all in the military service. He emphasized that they did not want money in return for the captives. “I listened to everything he said and promised everything that I felt I could promise. " 'Wang quietly told me that he had prepared for the slaughter of his captives unless his demands were ac- cepted within. first he said three days. then two days. The demands were that troops be withdrawn. with the assurance given that there would be no reprisals in any form and guaran- tees that thc bandits be rc-eniistcd in the military forces. "I talked with him for more than an hour but was unable to soften or modify the demands. which included guarantees from foreign diplomats since the bandits were unwilling to accept any pledges from Chinese om- cials. however placed. Then I begged to see the captives. First they brought in Leon Friedman. He looked well and sat down and talked to me for a quarter of an hour. lie then called Eddy Elias. since he talks German. Elias was well—red checked. Major Alien then was brought in. He was calm. self possessed. Next the younger Elias was carried ln—carried beating his right foot was infected and badly swollen; the condition of it looking serious." \Vhen he asked for medicine the bandits told him a dector was coming to see Chevalier Mum.‘ (an ltailan at- torney of Shanghai). Elias said his foot pained him. "I talked to the captives. told idem - all that was being done and explained the demands of the bandits. "Then I resumed my conferen. with tho Chieftain. After I had begged him and pleaded with him. he agreed to lengthen the period of his ultimatum. lining three days (from May 1:). Ho absolutely refused to modify his terms. Talking with an un- moved expre-ion in an enraised voice. he declared that if his. demands were not met in three days he would kill all. He added that the foreign diplomats must guarantee his requirements. "The chieftain then ordered that the terms be drafted. This was done. and a Chinese called Yung read a. transla- tion of the draft and handed it to me for the diplomats. "I said to the chloftain: "You are too smart. too intelligent to shoot these innocent persons for nothing." adding. however. that. I‘ would walk the whole night. sore feet and all. to carry out his word. I said I felt. sure the diplomats would acquieso in the demands. "He replied: “Do not deceive yourself or believe me soft. What I threaten I will carry out exactly as I promise. You are a missionary. and you know what I say it true." Then speaking in English. I turned to the prisoners. saying: "He will not carry out his threat. because I shall hasten to Lineheng and I am certain the diplomats will do everything to save you. “The prisoners sat writing replies to the letters I had brought in to them. and been Friedman wrote a general appeal to the diplomats which all signed. "I asked to see Mueoo. but the chief- tain informedhe that lino-o was prose irate with illness ,onur miles away. Wang advised me to hasten away be- cause he would not modify his dc- cislbn. "I begged to be allowed to take along )dIJOr Alien. since it had been promised the preceding night that we would be allowed to take out six of the captives. The bandit loader. however. told me that a meiosnger had arrived reporting a movement of troops from Uncneng toward Tsaochwang. Com- mander Wang added: 'If you d n't hop your premises we won't kee ours. You said troops were withdrawing. and these are train troops coming in.‘ "The chiefmin supplied a guide. thus saving much time. but guide re- fused to continue to conduct the after a time. I succeeded in obtaining another guide. It was hard traveling through the deep ravines and rocky roads and cost much property suffer- "Eat-outs I met groups of Chinese who told me they were taking presents to the bandits. seeking the release of friends. ”Not until I was “near 'Ihaoohwang did I encounter soldiers.
