Chinese troops. all armed. attacked the
Japanese forces which had been de-
tailed to guard the Ping Nang passes
In the northwest of corea and eventu-

from their positions. 1t Ia added that
a large number OF Coreans Hooked TO
the Chinese standard. begging for arms
and asking for permission TO form the
advance guard of the Chinese force
moving against the Japanese. on Aug
ust IA, still according to the reports
received by the native press, the Chi
nese were reinforced by 1000 troops
from I-Chow and on the day following
they attacked the Japanese lines at
Chung How with the result that the
Japanese retreated. on August l6 the
Chinese army was. the report says,
further reinforced by 1900 fresh troops
and on August II they attacked the
Japanese, who nre reported TO have

Japanese. who opened fire upon them
with the ships guns and inflicted loss
OF several hundred men upon the Chi

the native report adds. three of the
japanese war ships found themselves
aground and were afterward seriously
damaged by the fire Of the Chinese ar
tiliery, which was handled from am
bush. The bulk Of the japanese forces,
II further asserts, retreated southwark,
pursued by the Chinese cavalry until
night stopped the latter's advance.
General Jeh, the Chinese commander,
then made n detour and attacked tho
Japanese in the rear, completely rout-
ing them and captured Huang Chow.
