TWO MORE VICTORIES.
JapS Easily Defeat the Chinese ON Their

JapS Easily Defeat the Chinese on Their
Own Ground.
YOKOHAMA, Nov. 12-Advices from
the armies commanded by Field
Marshal Count Oyama, now operating
on the Lioung peninsula, confirm the
reports of japanese victories at Chin
Chiu (Nin-Chau) and Talienwan. On
the morning of Tuesday last one
brigade of the japanese forces captured
Chin Chiu and on the next day Talien-
wan was hombarded and also captured.
A British warship was at Talienwan
during the bombardment. After the
place was captured the warship started
for Che-Foo, which is across the gulf
some 80 miles south of Talienwan.
A dispatch from Talienwan, Nov. z,
from Admiral Ito, commander-in-chief
of the Japanese navy, says that the
squadron left Chiosensutauto on Nov.
and on the morning Of the 18th was
near Talienwan. No firing was heard
from the forts and the squadron
steamed into the bay, when the Japan
ese flag was seen flying from the forti-
fications, the guns Of which We're dis
mounted. An officer landed and found
only some japanese guards, who in
formed them that the commander Of
the brigade had returned to Chin Chiu4
The details of the capture of the place
were obtained and steamer was
despatched Immediately to telegraph
the news of the victory.
The official dispatches of Field Mar
shall Oyama stated that the Chinese
forces at Kin-C Chau numbered 1000 in
fantry and 100 cavalry, and at Talien-
wan 5000 infantry and 180 cavalry.
The Chinese made little resistance at
either place. They retreated toward
Port Arthur. The Japanese lost only
10 men in capturing both places. The
Chinese losses were also slight.

TOXIC, Japan, Nov. 12,-United
States Minister Dun has communicated
to the ministry the substance of an i'm
portant cipher cable proposition re-
ceived from Secretary Gresham at
Washington. 1t suggests that if Japan
will join China in requesting the presi-
dent of the United States to act as me-
diator in settling the war he will exer-
else his good offices in that capacity.
A similar proposition has been sent to
China. The cable was received by
Minister Dun on Friday and was pre-
sented to a special meeting of the min
istry. An answer has not yet been
sent. The proposition presents a grave
question to the ministry. They are
urged on one hand by the popular senti-

China. On the other hand European
powers are threatening to intervene.
AS between these conflicting influences
