DEFEAT FOR THE CHINESE.


Oficial Account of the Naval Fight Near
Fung-tao.
YOKOHAMA, August 12.-The follow
ing is the official account of the naval
fight near Fung-tao, as given out by the
japanese Governments: On July 25th,
at a. M, the Chinese man-Of-war Taso
Kiang was on its way from Taku to
Gazan, conveying a transport with
troops on board. Two other Chinese
men-of-war, the Chi-yueng and the
Kwang-yi, had also left Gazan to meet
this warship and her convoy. Just then
three japanese men-of-war, the Yosh-
inc. Naniwa, and Akitsushima, which
were on their way to Jinsen, met the
two Chinese ships off Shiopaioru, near
Fung-tao.
Though one of the japanese men-of
war had hoisted the Admiral's flag, the
Chinese not only neglected to salute,
but, making preparations for a battle,
made "A hostile display toward the Jap
anese. The sea being narrow, the Jap
anese men-of-war changed their course
and went seaward. When the japanese
and Chinese ships drew near to each
other the latter began to fire. The Jap
anese responded. a sharp battle took
place which lasted about an hour and
twenty minutes. The Chinese, taking
to flight, were pursued and fired upon.
The Chi.Yuen fled toward Chill bay,
while the Kwang-Yi made off at a con-
siderably reduced speed for the shallow
waters off the Eastern coast.
"At this moment two steamers came
into sight. On nearer approach they
were found to be the Chinese man.of-
war Tsao Kiang and Chinese trans.
port carrying the British flag. The
Yoshino had gone in pursuit of the Chi.
Yuen, but as the latter was in shallow
water it was considered unwise to fol.
low her, and the Yoshino returned
from the pursuit. But when she came
back to the scene of battle the Akitsus.
hima had already captured the Tsao-
Kiang"
The official account is then given OF
the sinking OF the Kow Shing, which
has already been published. The Tsao-
kiang, which was captured by the Jap
anese, is composite cruiser OF the
northern squadron, with 1900 tons dis
placement and , $500 actual horsepower,
Her length is 233 feet inches, her
beam "a feet > inches. She was launch
ed in 1888. Her speed is fifteen knots
and she carries 400 tons OF coal. She
has three Krupp and eleven Hotchkiss
guns, four four-pounders and four tor
pedo dischargers.
After her capture she was converted
into Japanese war ship.

EFFECT OF BIG GUNS.
Havoc Played with Strong Chinese

Vessel.
Toxic, August l4.-The following de-
tails were received here about the Chi
nese war vessel known as having fled
towards A-San after being engaged with
the japanese ships near Phung-do on
July 25th: On the morning OF July 9th
the Takachiho and the Maya lowered
their boats and proceeded to inspect the
condition OF the Chinese war ship. She
was found stranded on the bar at the
western inlet of Caroline bay. On close
examination the magazine was seen to
be torn open, thus causing great part
OF the body OF the ship to be filled with
water.
The wooden portion was, moreover.
burnt away, while at a point about two
thirds of the vessels length from the
bow she was broken in two. The
corpses of the crew were lying in heaps
beside the guns on the starboard side,
and the coming tower was virtually
shattered Within it was the corpse of
an officer standing, He may have been
the captain of the ship.
On the lower deck indications we've
discerned of many other bodies, but
they could not be clearly seen owing to
the deck being under water. The guns
from the japanese vessels must have
hit the ship with deadly precision, for
even in the part standing out of the
water more than ten generations were
visible. Three of the boats were found
stranded along the shore, The survivors
must have landed by them. A twelve
centimeter gun found on the upper
deck appeared to be serviceable.

new Judgment. The Chinese began to
retreat toward Gozan. After an hour
and half the battle was over and
quiet was restored.
Though the Chinese arnbuscade at the
bridge was to be praised. their setting
up their guns Immediately round their
tents showed their ignorance Of tactics,
for if their tents were set on fire by
cannon they would not only be unable
to extinguish it, but they could not
have remained within the line of their
runs. At the first the Chinese fought
outside the gun parapets. with the in
tentiun evidently of taking refuge there
if they were beaten back. But the sud
den charges of the Japanese gave them
no time to run within the parapets.
They fled. leaving their flags behind.
The Chinese loss may be computed at
over 100 killed and 400 wounded, mak-
ing total of over 500. The japanese
loss in the second fight was little over
twenty wounded. Several Chinese were
taken prisoners. The Chinese wounded
begged for their lives with clasped
hands
The japanese army pursued the Chi
nese for twelve miles to GOran, little
village about five miles from Gazan. As
Chinese attack was expected that
night, Il strict outlook was kept, but the
night passed quietly. At o'clock TIA,
next morning, July 3Oth, the army
marched upon Gazan. 1t was expected
| that the Chinese would make u desper
