TRAIL OF PILLAGE
INSURGENTS IN CHINA. CAVALRY SENT IN PURSUIT. (United Press Assn.—Telegraph Copyright.) Pekin, January 4. Leaving behind them a trail of pillage, Liu Kuei-tang’s insurgents have crossed the Pekin-Tientsin railway and are now heading southward in the direction of the Shantung border with the intention of taking refuge among the mountain fastnesses which make that region a bandit’s paradise. _ Hundreds of camels and pack animals loaded with a miscellaneous collection of loot from the plundered villages accompanied the marauders. A division of Government cavalry has been sent in pursuit.
