CHINK BANDITS
PEKING, May 6. — George A.
Kyle, a Portland engineer, who has
been held captive by Chinese bandits
for a period of fifty-two days, has ar
rived here.
■ The release of Kyle was effected
by the American legislation, working
in conjunction with the Chinese auth
orities. Kyle said he had been well
treated by the bandita.
The capture of Engineer 3. A.
Kyle of Portland, Oregon, and two
assistants on March 6 by bandits who
threatened to ‘s{?nd back their heads”
unless ransom was forthcoming by
March 22 had all the sittings of a
XVII century adventure.
Kyle, who is chief engineer of the
Chou-Hsiang Railway, left Peking
on February 27 for Yencheng, Honan,
to investigate a line that is under
survey from this point to Chengtu in -
Szechuen. In his party were also E.
J. Purcell and four Chinese.
Kyle had wit hhim $13,000 in silver
for the use of his own party and the
two surveying parties which had pre
ceded them. It was soon widely
known that the party was carrying a
large sum of money, it being impos
sible to hide this fact. There were
14 cartloads of baggage, and the
party were under the protection of
an escort supplied by the Wuyang
magistrate.
On March 4 the party passed the
village of Chang Pa Ohuang, where a
*
band of robbers was having break
fast. They allowed the party to pass
on unmolested, but after it had gone
a short distance, they started a pur
suit, opening fire from behind. The
party ran toward the village of Hu
Chang .('huang but they encountered
another band of robbers from the
south hills, who opened fire upon
them. Mr. Kyle and his party sur
rendered. Taking the two Americans
and one of the Chinese engineers
bandits started for the mountains,
holding at bay soldiers who attacked ,
them by placing the Americans be
tween themselves and the soldiers.
The local authorities tried to locate
the bandits and release the engineers
but the bandits shifted their quarters
every day. According to the latest
reports they were somewhere in the
Fengchen or Yehchow. The robbers
who infest these regions are rem
nants or the "Wite Wolf” band, which
ravaged this district three years ago.
Their practice is to kidnap the mem
bers of wealthy famiHes in the coun
try and hold them for ransom in
which they almost invariably sue-;
ceeded.

They demanded 70 rifles and 10
boxes of ammunition before they
would discuss the return of the,

robbers was told that Mr. Kyle was.

was being carefully looked after.
