WASHINGTON, June 12.-—-The Chinese legation is still without information as to the reports depredations on American missions in China. It is considered settled that no lives have been lost, and that any depredations which may have occurred are confined, to mission property. It is said that if reports are confirmed that officials countenancod the destruction they will be severely dealt with. It is customary to de- grade viceroys even when they are not re- sponsible for riots in their provinces, and the punishment, it is said, will doubtless be more severe if they have aided the out- break, as the reports state.
