reversed their former attitude of positively refusing all
direct intercourse with us.
On the opposite side of Tibet, in that part not directly
under the Lhasa Government, but inhabited by people of
the Tibetan race and of the Lamaist religion, matters
were, however, very different, and in the spring of 1905
serious troubles, including the massacre of both Chinese
officials and Europeans, occurred.
Around Batang for years past the Tibetans had been
very turbulent. In February, 1905, according to Chinese
accounts, a Chinese official was forcibly robbed near
Batang, and the Chinese Amban, Feng, sent a hundred
Tibetans belonging to a regiment in Chinese employ
to arrest the robbers. Thereupon great crowds from
the surrounding country assembled in the neighbour-
hood of Batang, declaring that Feng had no right to
establish his permanent residence there. Communication
by water was cut off, and on April 2 the people, "in
collusion with the Lama brigands of the Ting-lin monas-
teries, surrounded Batang." The Roman Catholic Mission
Chapel was burned, and subsequently Pères Mussot and
Soulié were murdered here, and four others at Litang.
The Chinese general was shot in the main hall of the
Yamen, and Feng only escaped through a back gate. He
was, however, followed up and surrounded in a house to
which he had fled. He tried to escape from this also
with seventy-three men, but of these only three escaped,
and all the rest, including the Amban Feng himself, were
killed.
A French priest of the Tibetan Mission, when inform-
ing Mr. Litton, our Consul at Teng-yueh, that the revolt
appeared to be spreading to all the large lamaseries in
North-West Yunan, thus analyzed the cause of the
disorders.
For some two years past the Szechuan Government
had been endeavouring to bring Batang and the adjacent
country under the ordinary jurisdiction of the Chinese
officials, which was violently resented by the Lamas.
