Details o the battle between the

break by Japanese cannonade of the
Chinese works, which wa continued
without cessation until afternoon, the
Chinese respond ng. The work
with the heavy guns showed
good practice The firing continued
at intervals during the night,
and in the meantime two japanese
thanking columns had formed a COZ don
around the Chinese. At 3 o'clock sun
day morning an attack was made by
the Japanese columns simultaneously
and with admirable precision. The
Chinese were completely taken by
sur rise and we're thrown into panic.
Hundreds were cut down and those
who escap death, finding themselves
surrounded at every point, broke and
fled. Some of Viceroy Ii Hung
Chang's European. .dri led troops stood
their ground TO the eastward and were
cut down to man. The Pong San
column, swarminG over the defenscs in
front, completed the rout. Half an
hour after the attack was opened the
